PURPOSE:
City Council approval is requested for a change order to Contract 2017-0430 for the Airport Lift Station and Sewer Line Project. In order to add the work for realignment of the sewer line due to unanticipated geotechnical issues, approval is required for this change order, with Yates Construction Company, Inc., for $500,000.00.

The additional costs are due to the realignment of the sewer line due to unanticipated geotechnical issues. The original contract amount is $4,983,020.00. The approval of this change order #1 request, in the amount of $500,000.00, will make the new contract value $5,483,020.00.
