SUBJECT: Authorization to Retain a Consultant to Provide Design
Services for Huntington Drive Rehabilitation (Santa Anita
Avenue to Fifth Avenue) and Huntington Drive Water Line
Reconstruction (Santa Anita Avenue to Second Avenue)
BACKGROUND:
At their meeting on August 3 , 1993 , the City Council adopted the
Downtown Revitalization Strategy and Program Concept. In another
action by the Council, staff was authorized to retain Freedman,
Tung and Bottomley (FTB) , with ASL Consulting Engineers as a
subcontractor, to design the Huntington Drive/First Avenue
Streetscape Improvements. In yet another action, the City Council
directed staff to report back with a proposal from ASL for the
design of Huntington Drive Rehabilitation (overlay) and Huntington
Drive water line reconstruction.
DISCUSSION:
Huntington Drive Rehabilitation Project
This project involves the cold-planing of the existing asphalt
pavement and construction of new asphalt pavement overlay on
Huntington Drive between Santa Anita Avenue and Fifth Avenue. The
portion of the project between Santa Anita Avenue and Second Avenue
is within the area of the Downtown Revitalization. The project is
in the approved Capital Improvement Program with $900, 000 budgeted
from the Gas Tax Fund.
ASL has provided the City with a proposal to prepare the plans and
specifications (P&S) for this project. The P&S, when completed,
would be combined with the P&S for the Huntington Drive/First
Avenue Streetscape Improvements. ASL proposes to do this work at
a cost of $20, 000.
Huntington Drive Water Line Reconstruction Project
Prior to having any knowledge of the specific design concepts for
Huntington Drive Streetscape Improvements, the Water Division had
approval from the City Council to construct two water projects on
Huntington Drive between Santa Anita Avenue and Second Avenue. The
two water projects are described below:
LASER 9_ 7 - 9 _3
1. Cement Lining of Existing 16" Steel Water Line
This project involves cement lining of the existing 16" water
line in Huntington Drive within the area of the Downtown
Revitalization. The City Council, on February 2 , 1993 ,
appropriated $185, 000 from the Water Facilities Replacement Fund
to construct the project. The existing 16" water main was
constructed in 1936 and has experienced a major leak in January
1993 . The purpose of the project was to prevent future leaks
in the 16" water main especially after the construction of the
new roadway.
2. Construction of ten (10) - 8" Water Main Laterals in Huntington
Drive
This project involves constructing five (5) - 8" water main
laterals on each side of Huntington Drive (see Attachment 1) .
There is $50, 000 budgeted in the approved Capital Improvement
Program from the Water Facilities Replacement Fund. The purpose
of this project was to avoid perpendicular street cuts for new
water services after completion of the new asphalt pavement.
Each property owner needing a new water service would still be
required to extend the 8" lateral longitudinally in Huntington
Drive to provide water service connection to their building.
Since some specific design concepts for Huntington Drive
Streetscape Improvements have been made available, Water Division
staff felt it necessary to re-evaluate these two projects to
determine if they could be modified to better serve the Downtown
Revitalization area. One of the key factors in our re-evaluation
was to develop a water project that would eliminate the need to
replace the existing 16" water main in the near future and minimize
street cuts for the longest period of time possible. A second
factor was to have water facilities located in Huntington Drive in
an area that would require the least amount of street cuts when
adding new water services in the future.
After careful review of these two factors, it was concluded by
staff that the two water projects should be replaced with a new
water main replacement project. Essentially, this means that the
existing 16" water main (constructed in 1936) would be abandoned in
place and two new water mains would be constructed near the gutter
on the north and south side of Huntington Drive (Parallel Main
Project -. PMP) . (See Attachment 2)
The construction of the PMP would allow future water services
(domestic and fire) to be added with only minor street cuts
(approximately 4' x 4' ) for connection purposes rather than making
any perpendicular or longitudinal street cuts to access existing
mains. Without the PMP, any new water service would involve a
longitudinal street cut from 50' to 150' in length to connect the
property owner's water service to the new 8" laterals. If the
property owner did not connect to the new 8" laterals, then the

only other location for a new water service would be at the
existing 16" water main near the median in Huntington Drive which
would involve a perpendicular street cut.
One economic benefit of the PMP is that new ductile iron mains
would last approximately 50 years longer than the cement lining of
the existing 16" water main. Another economic benefit would be
realized by the business owners because their costs to install a
new water service (domestic and fire) would be much cheaper.
Depending on the location of a particular property, a business
owner could save between $5, 000 and $15, 000 as a result of the PMP
because the PMP would greatly reduce the amount of water main work
required to construct a new water service.
It is staff's recommendation that the two prior approved water
projects be eliminated and replaced with the PMP. The estimated
cost to construct the PMP is $415, 000. With the approval of City
Council, staff would utilize the already approved funds of $235, 000
toward the PMP. If the PMP is approved, staff requests that the
City Council appropriate an additional $180, 000 from the Facilities
Replacement Fund for a total of $415, 000 for the PMP.
ASL has provided the Water Division with a proposal to prepare the
plans and specifications (P&S) for the PMP in Huntington Drive. As
with the P&S for Huntington Drive Rehabilitation, the P&S for the
PMP would be combined with the P&S for the Streetscape Project.
ASL proposes to do this work for $13, 500.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize staff to replace the two prior approved water projects
(cement lining of existing 16" main and 8" water main laterals)
with the Parallel Main Project in Huntington Drive from Santa
Anita Avenue to Second Avenue.
2 . Appropriate an additional $180, 000 from the Water Facilities
Replacement Fund for the Parallel Main Project.
3 . Authorize staff to issue a Purchase Order to retain ASL
Consulting Engineers in the amount of $33 , 500 to prepare plans
and specifications for Huntington Drive Rehabilitation and
Huntington Drive Water Line Reconstruction (Parallel Main
Project) .
