Change Order No. 1 for the Sidewalk Vault Improvements - 102 N. Chicago Street, 175 N. Chicago Street, 2 Clinton Street to Lindblad Construction in the amount of $297,613.40
end
BACKGROUND:
In advance of the proposed 2024 Streetscape Improvements on Chicago Street, stabilization work will be completed on existing sidewalk vaults to ensure safe pedestrian access to businesses during mainline construction activities. The initial vault locations at 102 N. Chicago, 175 N. Chicago, and 2 Clinton Streets were awarded to Lindblad Construction on January 2, 2024, in the amount of $1,855,941.00. The Public Service Committee will review this matter.
CONCLUSION:
Several issues that need to be addressed were identified during the sidewalk vault stabilization work currently underway. An undocumented sidewalk vault with a leaking water service was discovered at 173 N. Chicago Street. Additional vault stabilization work between Cass and Clinton Streets, sidewalk and stair repair at rear entrance of the Ottawa Street parking deck, and additional sidewalk to fill in the gaps between vault work are needed to maintain pedestrian access during the future roadway construction. It was also necessary to complete the replacement of the Rialto Theatre’s water service and valve at night because a full water main shut down was required.
Change Order No. 1 is an addition in the amount of $297,613.40. for the following items:

Sufficient funds exist utilizing the Capital Funds (Org 30090270, Object 557200, $297,613.40).
