Hanna & Son, Civil Engineers & Land Surveyors of Gilroy, California, which has been named as Engineer of Work for the East Ninth Street et al Assessment District by Resolution Number 80-72. I have been assigned as the Project Engineer for and on behalf of W. J. Hanna & Son. I have directed the engineering design and have been directly involved with the assessment district proceedings. ....' The East Ninth Street et al Assessment District is approximately 84 acres in size. The proposed improvements will be installed on Ninth Street from Alexander easterly to the westerly R.O.W. line of the U.S. 101 Free- way, on Tenth Street from the Southern Pacific Railroad track easterly to the U. S. 101 Freeway off ramps, on Alexander Street from Banes Lane northerly to Ninth Street, on Banes Lane from Alexander easterly 175 feet, more or less, on Chestnut Street between Ninth Street and Tenth Street. I .... The proposed improvements include clearing and grubbing, excavation, grading, removal of existing trees, shrubs and structures and the construc- tion therein of base, pavement, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, where required, street monuments, street signs, handicap ramps, surface and subsurface storm drainage facilities, where required, sanitary sewer mains, manholes with manhole frames and covers, laterals and cleanouts, where required, water mains, valves, tees, hydrants and services, where required, under- ground serviced street lighting facilities, and the relocation and/or reconstruction of existing facilities, where required, together with any and all appurtenances to any of the above necessary to meet the require- ments of the City of Gilroy. The construction of landscaped median islands, including sprinkler and irrigation systems, in 2'enth Street from Alexander Street to a point of 600 feet, more or less, easterly of Chestnut Street. The acquisition of a right of service and use in existing traffic signal facilities and in intersection improvements at the intersection of Tenth Street and Chestnut Street on behalf of the properties benefitting there- from. -- The acquisition of all rights, lands and easements and the performing of all work auxiliary to any of the above and necessary to comp~~te same. These improvements are completely detailed on the plans prepared by W. J. Hanna & Son for this project. The costs of the improvements for this district have been spread to each parcel to properly reflect benefits received according to the criteria established for this project. The proposed method of assessments uses the adjusted front footage and parcel area to distribute costs in proper proportion to benefits received. The total assessment for each parcel was determined by the sum of the construction costs, the costs of acquisition of traffic signals and intersection improvement, the cost of land acquisi- tion, construction costs for landscape median, and incidental expenses. The construction costs for handicap ramp, a~justment to grade of valve boxes and manholes, relocation of street signs and installation of City monument boxes have been prorated on a front basis for the footage to all parcels facing Ninth, Tenth and Alexander Streets except that this footage on Tenth in front of Parcels 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 and 26 is spread to Parcels 21 thru 26 based on their net area. --- The construction costs for clearing, grading, curb and gutter asphalt dike, pavement, aggregate base, street lighting, storm sewers, catch basins, asphalt overlay, petromat, fog seal, water main, relocation and installation fo fire hydrants have been prorated on a front foot basis to parcels fronting said improvements. .... The construction costs for water services, sanitary sewer services, P.C.C. sidewalks, fire services, driveway aprons, asphalt driveway conforms have been allocated to the properties served. The construction costs for the Tenth Street median curbs, landscaping, irrigation system have been prorated to the par~els on both sides of Tenth Street from the RR tracks to Chestnut Street on the front foot basis. From Chestnut Street easterly the costs have been prorated to the parcels on the south side of Tenth Street only on the net acreage basis. 4854 The construction costs for the traffic signals at Tenth and Chestnut Streets and the costs of existing intersection improvements have been spread to the parcels in the traffic signal zone as shoUJn on the assessment diagram on a net acreage basis. The Traffic Signal Zone shaU be, aU of the South VaUey Plaza Shopping Center area plus aU that area lying within 400 feefof the ;vesterly line of Chestnut Street be-tween Banes Lane and Ninth Street. The costs of incidental expenses including City Administration and inspection costs~ legal~ engineering~ bond discount~ printing and construction contingencies shall be distributed to all parcels pro- portional to all the costs. The .cost of Land Acquisition for required additional B. O. W. has been spread to the parcels affected by the front door method. ~ ..... On the basis of my past experience and my knowledge of this proposed assessment district~ it is my opinion that the proposed assessments properly reflect the benefits to be derived by each parcel. The method of assessment is reasonable~ fair~ and equitable and the assess- ments are distributed in proportion to the amount properties benefit. On March 29~ 1983~ a total of five (5) bids Were received by the City of Gilroy for the construction of these improvements. These bids ranged from a low of $4?3~563.25 to high of $5?3~805.35. The Engineer's Estimate was $463~?49.35. The low bid of $4?3~563.25 was incomplete and therefor rejected and the next lowest bid of $498~990.00 from Piazza Construction Company of San Jose was used. Based on the bid of $498~990.00 and a construction contingency of approximately 6.88%~ the total project cost of this assessment district will remain the same as previously submitted~ $1~12?~022.81. This completes my report for and on behalf of W. J. Hanna & Son~ Engi- neer of Work.
