SUMMARY
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The proposed construction scope will consist of improvements to the intersection of Yuma Road and
Verrado Way, as well as a portion of the total scope items for Verrado Way between Yuma Road and
Van Buren Street. These improvements will include the installation of the traffic signal at this final
location, roadway expansion, and addressing drainage concerns. Civil engineering services are already
under contract for this project. Achen-Gardner Construction has been selected as the Construction
Manager at Risk (CMAR) for this project and is under contract for Pre-Construction Services (Contract
No. 32500038). The City has previously authorized the City Manager to execute the necessary
amendments to the contract, with the combined cost of all these amendments not to exceed
$10,282,451.10. The City is now proposing the City Manager to Authorize the combined cost not to
exceed (NTE) $14,282,451.10.  
BENEFITS:
This approval will allow the City Manager to approve the Guaranteed Maximum Prices (GMPs)
necessary for the construction of this project in a timely manner. 
FUTURE ACTION:
Completion of delivery for the CMAR and construction services will assist in the overall construction for
this Project. 
FINANCIAL IMPACT STATEMENT:
The Project is currently programmed in the CIP program in Fiscal Year FY26, FY27, and FY28. Due to
the extensive nature of construction and the timing with surrounding parcels, the City is requesting the
construction be completed between FY26 and FY27.
