STAFF REPORT
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BEN KIM, CITY MANAGER
DATE: NOVEMBER 12, 2025
SUBJECT: ACCEPT COMPLETED IMPROVEMENTS AND AUTHORIZE THE
FILING OF A NOTICE OF COMPLETION FOR THE WALNUT GROVE
AVENUE STREET LIGHT INSTALLATION PROJECT NO.43009
SUMMARY
On November 12, 2024, the City Council awarded a construction contract to Elecnor Belco
Electric, Inc. for the Walnut Grove Avenue Street Light Installation Project. The total
construction budget, including a 10% contingency, was set at $681,181.60. All construction
improvements have been completed and have been accepted by City staff. A notice of
completion will be filed with the Los Angeles County Recorder upon approval by the City
Council. The release of retention funds will occur 35 days after the filing of the notice of
completion.
BACKGROUND
The project involved furnishing and installation of Twenty -Two (22) solar powered street LED
light fixtures with concrete poles and all related appurtenances on Walnut Grove Avenue
between Marshall Avenue and Valley Blvd. This project also included removing and replacing of
Fourty-Four (44) existing deteriorated light fixtures along Valley Boulevard between Muscatel
Avenue and Loma Avenue.
DISCUSSION
During the construction phase, no construction change orders were issued to Elecnor Belco
Electric, Inc. However, a deductive change order was issued to the City due to a more favorable
pricing for the concrete poles secured for this project. Consequently, the City was credited back
$1,134.85, thereby reducing the initial cost of the project from $619,256.00 to $618,121.15.
A Stop Working Notice was issued between June 1 st to August 7th due to an extended lead time
beyond the anticipated availability of concrete poles. However, despite this delay, the project
team efficiently managed resources and adjusted the schedule, ensuring that the overall
completion of the project was not impacted.
