THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA
Adopted this Order on October 2, 1984 by the following vote:
AYES: Supervisors Powers , Fanden, McPeak & Torlakson
NOES: None
ABSENT: Supervisor Schroder
ABSTAIN: None
SUBJECT: Authorize Disbursement of Liquidated Damages for Alhambra Creek
Bank Repair Project near Wanda Way, Flood Control District Project No.
7505-6F7751-83, Martinez Area.
On June 7, 1983, the Board, sitting in its capacity as the
governing body of the Contra Costa County Flood Control and Water Conservation
District, authorized the Chief Engineer to execute cost-sharing agreements
with property owners for repair of storm damage. The agreements required
that the property owners engage a soils engineer to design the creek
repair project and to inspect the construction work.
On June 23, 1983, the Board entered into an agreement with
the Soil Conservation Service, United States Department of Agriculture,
for repair of storm damage. The agreement requires that the District
be liable to the Service in the amount of $130 per day for every calendar
day that completion of the construction work is delayed beyond the con-
struction contract time.
The Chief Engineer has reported that the contract with Brudigam
Development, Inc. of Lafayette, for repair of the storm damage requires
the contractor to pay $250 per day for every calendar day that completion
of the construction work is delayed beyond the allowable contract time,
that said construction work was completed 19 days beyond the contract
time, that the delay resulted in increased inspection costs to the property
owners, and that their increase in inspection costs were approximately
four times those of the District.
The Chief Engineer has recommended that the liquidated damages
remaining after the District's liability to the Service is complete be
split 80% ($1,824.00) to the property owners and 203 ($456.00) to the
District to cover extra inspection costs.
IT IS BY THE BOARD ORDERED that the recommendation of the Chief
Engineer is APPROVED.
I hereby certify that this is a true and correct copy of
an action taken and on:ered on the rninuies o? fhe
Board of Supervisors on the date shown.
