CITY COUNCIL, CITY OF SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, STATE OF CALIFORNIA
RESOLUTION DECLARING AN EMERGENCY, AUTHORIZING THE
CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A CONTRACT WITH INTERSTATE
PAVING AND GRADING, INC. IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED
$20,000 FOR THE PERFORMANCE OF SANITARY SEWER WORK ON
THIRD LANE, AND APPROVING AMENDMENT NO. 97-12 TO THE
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM BUDGET
WHEREAS, the existing sanitary sewer line on Third Lane between Maple
and Linden Avenues has no manholes or cleanouts, and has given rise to
numerous maintenance problems for the City on account of its depth of
approximately 14 feet and its length of approximately 700 feet; and
WHEREAS, the installation of a manhole in this sanitary sewer line would
allow City crews to have access to the line in order to maintain the line; and
WHEREAS, the sewer line is currently blocked, and is expected to remain
blocked until a manhole and sewer lateral can be installed; and
WHEREAS, the City has solicited an oral bid from Interstate Paving and
Grading, Inc. to install a manhole and sewer lateral for an amount not to
exceed $20,000; and
WHEREAS, the City Council hereby finds and declares that the continued
blockage of this sanitary sewer line constitutes an emergency which, pursuant
to South San Francisco Municipal Code section 4.04.070, justifies the
suspension of the competitive bidding procedures which would otherwise apply
to this public contract; and
WHEREAS, the City Council hereby declares that the public interest and
necessity demand the immediate expenditure of public funds to install a
manhole and sewer lateral in order to safeguard life, health, and/or property,
and finds that the continued blockage of the sewer line constitutes an
emergency which will not permit a delay resulting from a competitive
solicitation for bids, and that the immediate installation of a manhole and
sewer lateral is necessary to respond to the emergency;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of South
San Francisco, that:
1. The City Manager is authorized to execute a contract between the
City and Interstate Grading & Paving, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $20,000

line on Third Lane between Maple and Linden Avenues; and
2. The City Council approves Amendment No.97-12 to the Capital
Improvement Program budget for the transfer of $20,000 from the undesignated
general fund reserve to the Capital Improvement Program for the installation
of a manhole and sewer lateral on Third Lane between Maple and Linden Avenues.
