DISCUSSION
On October 3, 2017, the City Council awarded a construction contract to Aramexx Construction,
for the Edinger Avenue and Willits/Sullivan Landscape Improvement Project. This community
beautification project consisted of planting drought -tolerant landscape and installing related
irrigation systems at two locations. The first location was on West Edinger Avenue between
Mohawk Drive and the Santa Ana River, and the second location was a 3,000 -square -foot area
adjacent to the southeast corner of the Willits/Sullivan Corridor (Exhibit 1). The base contract was
$64,950 plus a contingency of $19,485, for a maximum construction authorization of $84,435.
The final construction accounting was performed and all expenditures are within the City Council
authorized limit. The following table is a summary of authorized and expended funds:
