TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
DATE: January 12, 1993
SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE the Issuance of a Purchase Order to Coastal Construction Company, Inc.
for the Repair of Foster Lane in the EI Sobrante Area.
Project No.: 0672-6R4007
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) &BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. Recommended Action:
AUTHORIZE the issuance of a purchase order in the amount of$27,836 to Coastal Construction
Company, Inc. for the repair of Foster Lane.
II. Financial Impact:
The total cost of this project, including contract administration and inspection is estimated to be
$38,000. Full funding is available from the road funds.
III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
In 1972 approximately 200 feet of Foster Lane was severely damaged by a landslide that
developed on the adjoining properties. Due to the high cost of repairing this slide, only
temporary repairs were made on Foster Lane to permit access for the few local residents
residing at the end of the street.
Recently, a builder, Mr. Ed Klotz, purchased the three adjacent lots below the damaged road.
In order to make these lots buildable, the slide had to be repaired. Mr. Klotz repaired the slide
at his expense with the understanding that the County would repair Foster Lane. The repaired
road will provide direct access to his fronting lots.

With the completion of the slide repair, the reconstruction of Foster Lane can now take place.
A key component of this project is the installation of a subdrain along the north side of Foster
Lane. It is important that this subdrain be installed as quickly as possible to prevent this winter's
rain from further saturating the restored embankment and causing a reoccurrence of the
landslide. Section 20395(e) of the Public Construction Act allows for the construction of
emergency work, such as this project, to take place without advertising for bids on projects
exceeding $25,000. Bids were solicited for this work from three contractors. In addition to the
low bid from Coastal Construction the following bids were received: Vintage Grading and
Paving, Inc., $30,000; Robert C. Hordyk and Assoc., Inc., $33,062. Arranging for this work by
purchase order is the most expedient way of constructing this project.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
Without approval of a purchase order there will be a delay in reconstructing Foster Lane. This
delay may jeopardize the slide restoration work already completed by Mr. Klotz.
