TITLE
Recommendation to authorize City Manager, or designee, to execute a Fifth Amendment to Contract No. 33031 with All American Asphalt, of Corona, CA, for the Annual Contract for Street Improvements, extending the contract term to August 31, 2017. (Citywide)
DISCUSSION
On February 19, 2013, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an annual contract for street improvements with All American Asphalt (All American) for an annual amount of $15,000,000. The City Council authorized four contract amendments, bringing the total contract authority to a not to exceed amount of $58,000,000, and extending the term to February 28, 2017. The on-call contract provides the City with fixed unit prices, for a 12-month period, and the quantity of work is issued in work orders, specified by the City, and then completed by All American, as a typical Public Works construction project.

The contract does not include any guaranteed minimum payment or retainer fee to the contractor.
Work performed under this contract includes street improvement, parking lot and airport-related projects. All American has done excellent work for the City, particularly in completing the construction of asphalt and slurry projects in a timely manner.

Considering that the current contract unit prices are typically lower than those now being received on other competitively bid street projects, staff is recommending that the City accept this offer and have the City Manager extend the contract term and the existing total contract authority through August 31, 2017....
