Executive Summary
The 2026 Pavement Overlay Project (Project) will rehabilitate the pavement on portions of Barham Drive, Woodland Parkway, Rancheros Drive, Nordahl Road, Center Drive, and Avenida Ricardo. City staff recommend that the City Council approve the construction documents, that it authorize the City Manager to award, negotiate, finalize, and execute the contract documents, and further that the Council appropriate additional funds necessary for construction of the Project.
Discussion
The Project will rehabilitate the pavement on portions of Barham Drive, Woodland Parkway, Rancheros Drive, Nordahl Road, Center Drive, and Avenida Ricardo, thereby extending the useful life thereof. The Project will also replace existing curb ramps at the signalized intersections with new ADA compliant ones. Traffic signal and bike lane improvements are also part of the Project.
As with other pavement resurfacing projects, staff typically review and refine the striping and pavement markings to improve safety for all modes of travel. Typical striping and pavement marking refinements include adding new bike lanes or enhancing existing bike lanes, where sufficient space exists. This Project will provide bike lane buffers, ensuring continuation of enhanced bike lanes within and surrounding the Project limits.
Staff recommend that the City Council approve the construction documents, that it authorize the City Engineer to finalize the same, and that it authorize the City Manager to award the construction contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, and to negotiate, finalize, and execute the construction contract to expedite construction activities. Staff further recommend that the City Council appropriate funds for the Project as described in the Fiscal Impact discussion, below.
Environmental Review
The Project is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Existing Facilities Class 1(c). This includes the proposed project scope to do minor alterations to existing public facilities including streets, sidewalks, gutters, bicycle lanes, and similar facilities involving negligible or no expansion.
Fiscal Impact
Project (CIP #ST022) is approved in the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Capital Improvement Program Budget and is funded with Gas Tax, RMRA, and TransNet LSI funds; however, additional funds are required to complete the Project. Approval of the proposed Resolution would amend the FY 2025-26 Capital Improvement Program budget to appropriate $110,000 from the Center Drive Maintenance District Fund (Fund 211) balance to CIP #ST022.
