Recommendation:
By Minute Motion;
Approve Change Order #2 with Psomas (Los Angeles, CA) in the
amount of $19,500 including contingency for the Highway 111 at
Desert Crossings project (Project 615-02).
Discussion:
On June 13, 2002, City Council awarded the engineering contract for the design of the
Desert Crossing Intersection Improvements to Psomas for the amount of $79,102.00,
with a 10% contingency in the amount of $7,910.20. On April 10, 2003, Change Order
#1 was approved in the amount of $11,000.00. This change order addresses the need
for additional title, appraisal, and acquisition services in conjunction with the right-of-way
necessary to complete the improvements.
Change Order #2 to the Psomas Engineering contract will enable the engineers to
modify the existing design plans for better traffic circulation on Highway 111.
Modifications will include an extension of the left turn lanes on Northbound Highway 111
to allow greater stacking, and to accommodate more traffic entering Desert Crossings
shopping center. Also, a dedicated right turn pocket into the Toys "R" Us parking lot will
be added on Northbound Highway 111 at the same intersection. This will decrease the

hindrance for through traffic on Highway 111 and improve overall circulation at the
intersection.
These changes need to be made within this fiscal year to allow proper time for
advertisement and the bidding process to occur in support of a May 2005 construction
schedule.
Funds are currently available in the Measure "A" project account: 213-4347-433-4001.
Therefore, the staff recommends that City Council approve Change Order #2 to
Contract No. C20210 for $19,500.
