DESCRIPTION: On March 22, 1993, the City Council awarded contract 93-01 to Steiny & Company. This project installed street lights on Golden Gate Drive and the Village Parkway/Clark Avenue loop south of Dublin Blvd. These lights were requested by businesses over the past several years and will improve safety for both pedestrians and motorists at night. Overhead utilities were undergrounded on many of Dublin's downtown streets prior to incorporation; however, street lights were not installed during that process. Several years ago as a first phase, Dublin began installing the missing lights with a project to light Regional street and Amador Plaza. Street lights were also added to Dublin Blvd. at the same time that city undergrounding projects took place. other lights have been added with traffic signal projects. A future project is proposed to add lights on Sierra Court/Sierra Lane and on Amador Valley Blvd. just east of Village Parkway. A change order incurred during the course of construction consisted of two parts: (1) an upgrade in electrical equipment which was required by PG&E but was not part of the original specification, and (2) repair of some sunken curb, gutter, and sidewalk on the Village/Clark loop. The amount of this change order was partially offset by the elimination of other sidewalk work which was not necessary. The work performed by Steiny & Co. is complete and in accordance with approved plans and specifications. The project was completed within overall funds budgeted. Staff recommends that the City Council accept the improvements and authorize payment of retention to Steiny & Co. a:stlite~agstacpt ITEM NO. CITY CLERK !
