BACKGROUND:

On January 16, 2024, the Mayor and City Council awarded a Contract for the Cathedral Area Phase 1A Water Main Improvements Project, in the amount of $1,921,772.14, on behalf of Austin Tyler Construction, Inc., based on the Unit Prices provided in their bid.  No previous change orders have been approved. 

 

The Public Service Committee will review this matter.

 

CONCLUSION:

Change Order No. 1 is a final balancing change order with a net decrease in the amount of ($263,570.50) and is based on the final quantities of pay items installed upon completion of the project.  Unused items include items for water main installation, water service work, valve vault extension, small diameter line stops, temporary service connections, asphalt pavement work items, and restoration items. Additional quantities for 8” water main installation, 16” line stop, 12” storm sewer replacement, 1” water service connections, and miscellaneous restoration items are included within Change Order No.1.  Additional requests for changes due to unmarked water services, relocation of existing utilities, and unknown utilities are also included within this final balancing Change Order No. 1.  This change order also includes a time extension of 115 days for delays based on field conditions and line stop and valve sequencing for final completion.  The quantities and pricing have been verified to be accurate and per the terms of the contract.

 

Funds will be credited for this project to the Water Main Replacement Fund (Org 53880000, Object 557200, ($214,975.50)) and the Lead Service Line Fund (Org 53780000, Object 557200, ($48,595.00)).
