BACKGROUND:

On January 16, 2024, the Mayor and City Council awarded a Contract for the Hickory Creek East Water Main Improvements Project, in the amount of $8,646,715.43, to Austin Tyler Construction Inc., based on the Unit Prices provided in their bid.  The Public Service Committee will review this matter.

 

CONCLUSION:

This project has been completed, inspected, and accepted by the Department of Public Utilities.  Change Order No. 1, a net decrease in the amount of ($772,015.73) is for the following work:

 

1)                     Additional water main work due to conflicts

 

2)                     Additional sewer work to extend a sanitary manhole and cap an existing sewer

 

3)                     Balancing of final quantities

 

In addition, Change Order No. 1 includes a time adjustment to the contract milestones for substantial (60 days) and final completion (43 days) due to delays caused by additional work required and completion of punch list items.

 

Funds will be credited for this project to the Water Main Replacement Fund (Org 53880000, Object 557200, ($405,097.72)) and Lead Service Line Replacement Fund Phase V (Org 53780000, Object 557200, ($407,698.66)).  Funds will be charged to the Sewer Collection Fund (Org 50180020, Object 557200, $40,780.65, Project 24033).
