PURPOSE:
City Council approval is requested for a change order to Contract 2013-031 for the Lindsay Street Water Line Replacement. In order to complete the work required under the contract, approval is required for this change order, with Breece Enterprises, Inc., in the amount of $330,000.00.
BACKGROUND:
This work consists of installation of 6-inch, 8-inch, and 12-inch waterlines; and an 8-inch sewerline. Also includes installation of fire hydrants and associated appurtenances; with a final pavement overlay of the project limits. The contract was awarded to Breece Enterprises, Inc. with a bid of $1,768,849.00. The contractor's overall commitment is MBE=2.2% and WBE=5.2%.
The additional costs are due to: removal of unanticipated poor quality soils which also facilitated the need for additional backfill material, additional waterline services, additional mobilization and traffic control due to delay of final pavement overlay, and various other associated items.
The original contract amount is $1,768,849.00 and approval of this change order request in the amount of $330,000.00 will make the new contract value $2,098,849.00.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Funds for this change order are budgeted in the following Water Resources Capital Improvement Fund accounts: 503-7027-03.6016 A18042 in the amount of $178,912.00 and 503-7027-03.6017 A18043 in the amount of $151,088.00.
