Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:

By Resolution 09-240 (October 27, 2009), the Board of Supervisors (BOS) approved this project for construction of a ± 120 foot long by 8 foot wide pedestrian bridge over Ten Mile Creek along Branscomb Road.  By Resolution No. 12-015 (January 24, 2012), BOS approved BOS Agreement No. 12-010/DOT Agreement No. 110059 with Rau and Associates, Inc., for professional civil and geotechnical engineering and environmental services.  By Resolution No. 13-019 (February 26, 2014), BOS approved Amendment No. 2.  By Resolution No. 14-035 (March 11, 2014), BOS approved Amendment No. 3 with $20,000 in contingencies which allowed for Amendments Nos. 4, 5 and 6. By Resolution No. 14-166 (December 16, 2014), BOS adopted an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for this project under California Environmental Quality Act Requirements.  By Resolution No. 15-090 (June 16, 2015), BOS approved Amendment No. 7 for an additional $66,993 for plans, specifications, and estimate. By Resolution 16-142 (December 6, 2016), BOS approved  the Department of Transportation to Advertise for Bids and Award Department of Transportation Contract Number 160078; however, the contract was not awarded because the lowest bid exceeded the engineer’s estimate by $209,055 0r 141%. By Resolution 17-199 (December 19, 2017), BOS approved  the Department of Transportation to Advertise for Bids and Award Department of Transportation Contract Number 160078 for the construction of the Pedestrian Bridge over Ten Mile Creek on Branscomb Road.                     

 

Summary of Request

There is a need for construction management services for the construction phase of the project.  DOT has insufficient engineering staff to perform the work in a timely manner and therefore requires professional, expert, and technical services of a temporary nature.  DOT has undergone a qualification based selection process to find a consultant who can perform the construction engineering work and has selected MGE based on their qualifications.  DOT Agreement No. 180031 provides for specialized consultant services with MGE for construction management of the Laytonville Pedestrian Bridge over Ten Mile Creek on Branscomb Road project in the amount of $63,176.  Costs of the construction phase of the project are to be funded with Federal Transportation Enhancement Activities funds administered through the State Transportation Improvement Program, Mendocino Council of Governments (MCOG) funds and the Road Fund, Budget Unit (BU) 3041.   DOT also believes it is prudent to request a contingency in the amount of $6,300 in order to facilitate timely completion of the work.
