RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the final plans and specifications and authorize the publication of a notice inviting bids for construction of the Huron Avenue Sidewalk and Drainage Improvement Project, PS-035.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
In September 2024, Public Works issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) to the City Council approved list of on-call civil engineering firms for engineering design services for sidewalk and drainage improvement design on the south-westerly side of Huron Avenue, north of Washington Boulevard to include topographic survey, demo, drainage, street and sidewalk construction plans. The City received seven proposals as a result of the RFP. After receiving and reviewing the proposals, Kabbara Engineering was selected and issued a Notice to Proceed on December 10, 2024, for engineering design services.
The design has been completed, reviewed, and approved by Public Works Department staff. The construction plans will replace the uplifted curb and gutter, portions of the uplifted asphalt pavement, the broken and uplifted sidewalk, and restore the corner biofiltration basin. These improvements will alleviate flooding that occurs on Huron Avenue during heavy rain events.
