Calpromax has adequate years of experience in completing contracts of a similar nature to this project. Staff recommends the City Council award the contract to Calpromax Engineering, Inc in the amount of $92,000. This cost does not include SCE's cost to pull the wire and to remove the existing power pole. Since The New Home Company has completed the conduit installation for its undergrounding work, and with the City's undergrounding project completed, SCE will be able to pull wires and remove all the poles at the same time The work to be done includes the construction of a transformer concrete pad and installation of conduit. The total estimated construction cost including contract administration is about $98,000. The proposed project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA guidelines Section 15303 "New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures" Class 3 (d) "Water main, sewage, electrical, gas, and other utility extensions, including street improvements, of reasonable length to serve such construction." This categorical exemption applies because the project involves only the conversion of electrical overhead to underground service. The CEQA Notice of Exemption has been filed with the County Recorder's Office. Construction is scheduled to begin in March 2018 and be completed by April 2018. 8.
