FiscaZ Impact The estimated total Project cost is $300,000. These costs include construction and staff time for construction management and inspections. The Storm Drain Utility Division (Storm Drain Utility) has sufficient funds appropriated in the approved Fiscal Year 2022-23 budget for this proj ect. Alter�native Action The City Council (Council) may choose to not authorize the award of an emergency contract, and instead prepare an award to the low bidder in accordance with State and local contracting procedures. This will result in the closure of Eastside Road for an extended period impacting area businesses and residents. There will be an increased risk of'roadway failure and potential rupture of the high-pressure gas main posing a significant threat to businesses, property, State Route (Highway) 273, and railroad operations. Report to Redding City Council March 20, 2023 Re: 2(a)--Emergency Repair of Storm Drain Facility on Eastside Road Page 2 Or, the Council could also provide alterative direction to staff BackgroundlAnalysis The Storm Drain Utility maintains storm drain �acilities throughout the City of Redding (City) including inlets, outfalls, pipes, and channels. Located on Eastside :Road just south of Haven Humane Society and 1.4 miles north of Latona Road is a 48-inch corrugated metal storm drain pipe. The pipe conveys water from Happy Valley Road, Highway 273, and the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) tracks, under Eastside Road and onto City-owned property to the east. The Storm Drain Utility made an expedient repair to the system in 2020 when the outlet to the creek had failed. Today, the connection to the outlet and the remainder o�the piping underneath the roadway is failing causing soil erosion to the adjacent road slopes (both sides) and exposing a Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) two-inch gas line. There is also a PG&E 10-inch, high-pressure transmission gas main in the roadway above the failing storm drain pipe. Eastside Road is now temporarily closed due to the concerns of entire roadway failure and damage to the high-pressure gas main. With forecasts of continued wet weather, and the roadway slope gradually deteriorating, the Storm Drain Utility and Engineering Divisions agreed that time is of the essence to avert the possible threat of a complete roadway failure, damage to the gas lines, and material being washed downstream, and potential flooding of the adjacent roadways. Simply closing the road and re-routing traffic will not mitigate the exigency because the storm water may continue to erode the road bank and undermine the gas line. The expedient need for repairs does not allow time for traditional engineering design and formal competitive bidding. Staff proposes an emergency contract to replace the failed storm drain pipe and repair the overlying roadway and its adjacent support slope. Staff estimates the work to total less than $300,000 including construction contract work, construction management and inspection. It is further estimated that the work will be complete within two weeks. It is noted that the Public Contract Code (Section 20168) provides that the local government's legislative body may pass a resolution by a four-fifths vote of its members declaring that the public interest and necessity demand the immediate expenditure of public money to safeguard life, health and property. Further, the PCC (Section 22050) provides that "in case of emergency, a public agency, pursuant to a four-fifths vote of its governing body, may repair or replace a public facility, take any directly related and immediate action required by that emergency, and procure the necessary equipment, services, and supplies for those purposes without giving notice for bids to let contracts." In addition, the Redding Municipal Code, Section 4.22.120 provides the City Manager to authorize necessary actions and for the Council to subsequently review and ratify such actions within seven days or at the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Council. It is in the public's interest and necessity to repair the storm drain system as soon as practicable to ensure no further damage to persons,public health or property occurs. The:Resolution has been approved as to form by the City Attorney. Environmental Review Staff has determined that the project qualifies as categorically exempt from environmental Report to Redding City Council March 20, 2023 Re: 2(a)--Emergency Repair of Storm Drain Facility on Eastside Road Page 3 review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, per Section 15301. and Section 15302. Class 1 exemptions include the operation, repair, maintenance, or minor alteration of existing facilities, structures, or equipment involving negligible or no expansion of use. Class 2 exemptions consist of replacement or reconstruction where the new structure will be located on the same site and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity. The existing storm drain pipe will be replaced to prevent additional erosion and potential roadway failure. The pipe will be located on the same site, will have substantially the same purpose and capacity, and the project will result in no expansion of use. The project has no potential to have a significant effect on the environment.
