FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2021-22 ANNUAL CONCRETE REPAIRS PROJECT IN THE AMOUNT OF $105,730 Recommendation: Approve SUMMARY As part of the City’s Annual Asphalt and Concrete Program, the Public Works Services Department (“PWSD”) is preparing to repair damaged curbs, gutters, and cross gutters along various residential streets within the City. To ensure that the City is receiving the most competitive prices and quality service for this work, the PWSD conducted a formal bid. Gentry Brothers, Inc. submitted the lowest responsive bid. It is recommended that the City Council approve, authorize, and direct the City Manager to execute a contract with Gentry Brothers, Inc. for the Fiscal Year 2021-22 Annual Concrete Repairs Project in the amount of $105,730. BACKGROUND The PWSD is responsible for the maintenance and repair of approximately 147 miles of roadway within the City. Since 1999, the City has enacted a comprehensive Pavement Management Program, where the condition of all City streets has been regularly assessed to plan for an Annual Asphalt and Concrete Repair Program. As part of this program, street surfaces that are cracked are slurry sealed, and concrete curbs, gutters, and pavement areas that have been damaged are repaired. For this Fiscal Year, the concrete repairs portion of the program includes identifying and prioritizing replacement of curbs, gutters, and cross gutters in the areas shown on the attached Project Location Map (Exhibit “A”). In addition, handicap curb ramps will be installed at various locations in the project area to remove barriers to sidewalk accessibility. The work plan and budget are included in the Fiscal Year 2021-22 Capital Improvement Program as part of the Annual Slurry Seal Program.

On March 1, 2022, the City Clerk received eight sealed bids, with the following results: Rank Bidder Location Bid Amount 1. Gentry Brothers, Inc. Irwindale, CA $105,730.00 2.

Rancho Cucamonga, CA $223,460.00 Bid documents were reviewed for content and the Contractor’s background and recent projects were investigated. Based on this review, it has been determined that Gentry Brothers Inc. is the lowest responsive bidder for this work and is a qualified contractor for the project. Gentry Brothers, Inc. has successfully completed similar projects for the Cities of Alhambra, Baldwin Park, Chino Hills, Downey, El Monte, Pomona, Rancho Cucamonga, San Dimas, and Arcadia. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS This project is considered a Class 1 exemption as defined in Section 15301(c) of the California Environmental Quality Act since the project consists of the maintenance of existing public streets and does not involve expansion of the existing use of the streets. FISCAL IMPACT The work plan and budget for the Fiscal Year 2021-22 Annual Concrete Repairs Project is included in the Fiscal Year 2021-22 Capital Improvement Program as part of the Annual Slurry Seal Program. Funds in the amount of $700,000 were budgeted in the Fiscal Year 2020-21 Annual Slurry Seal Program. The project’s total contract cost is $105,730, which will leave sufficient funds for the slurry seal efforts that are also planned with this funding. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council determine that this project is considered a Class 1 exemption as defined in Section 15301(c) under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”); and approve, authorize, and direct the City Manager to execute a Contract with Gentry Brothers, Inc. for the Fiscal Year 2021-22 Annual Concrete Repairs Project in the amount of $105,730.
