BACKGROUND
On May 20, 2014, the City Council adopted plans and specifications and authorized a call for bids for cyclic sewer rehabilitation project, phase 11, No. P.W. 06-13-16. On September 2, 2014, the City Council awarded the construction contract to Ranger Pipelines, Inc. with an annual extension option for up to four additional years, with each extension coming before City Council for approval. On September 15, 2015, the City Council approved the first amendment to the contract in the amount of $4,237,790.29 for Cyclic Sewer Rehabilitation Project, Phase 12, No. P.W. 01-15-01.
Completion of this work is required for compliance under Final Consent Decree for Consolidated Case Nos. C 09-00186-RS and C 09-05684-RS. The City bid the entire project at one time in order to secure a qualified contractor at a competitive price, given other parties to the consent decree were competing for similar contractors at the same time.
Annual extensions are based on mutual agreement and satisfactory performance of all aspects of the contract. Contract prices are adjusted in accordance with the construction cost index reported in the Engineering News Record for the San Francisco Bay Area; other contract terms remain the same.
