File Number: 25-276 2019, and progressed through the Schematic Design phase, incorporating public engagement. However, in early 2020, due to the uncertain timeline of the Shoreline Development and lack of confirmed construction funding, the design effort was paused. In 2022, the City successfully secured a $4,079,701 grant from the California State Library’s Building Forward Library Infrastructure Grant Program. Additionally, the San Leandro Library Foundation committed $800,000 toward the project. On April 10, 2025, the City opened bids for the subject project. Ten bids were received, with base bid amount ranging between $6,784,000 and $9,230,000. The pre-bid Engineer’s Estimate for the base bid was $7,202,900. Staff determined that Giant Construction, Inc.is the low bidder based on their base bid amount of $6,784,000. After consideration of construction administration and contingencies, staff determined that an additional $630,000 would be required to award the construction contract to Giant Construction, Inc. and complete the project. During development of the Biennial Budget for Fiscal Years 2026-2027, staff also considered the additional operating costs that would be incurred by the new Mulford-Marina Library facility, operational restrictions resulting from staffing reductions proposed as part of the Biennial Budget, and the declining utilization of the existing Mulford-Marina Library. Based on the total anticipated costs to both construct and operate the new Mulford-Marina Library facility, staff recommends rejecting all bids for the Mulford-Marina Branch Library, Project No. 2018.2400 and to not Include Project List ‘A’ in the Capital Improvement Program 10 Year Plan FY 2026 through FY 2035 as a Funded Project. Project List ‘B’ - Lewelling Boulevard Class IV Bike Ways The Lewelling Boulevard Class IV Bike Ways Project will implement a road diet, reducing the number of travel lanes from four to two, allowing for the construction of new Class IV protected bike lanes with raised medians along Lewelling Boulevard between Wicks Boulevard and Washington Avenue. The project aligns with the City’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, which recommends separated bikeways along this segment of Lewelling Blvd. The project will also increase safety for vulnerable users and would align with the City’s Vision Zero Policy to reduce and eliminate severe and fatal injuries. Fiscal Impacts This action provides details for the use of funds committed as part of the Biennial Budget. The CIP Plan does not, by itself, appropriate funds.
