PURPOSE:
City Council approval is requested for a change order to Contract 2009-003 for the Battleground Avenue (US 220) at Cone Boulevard Intersection Improvements. In order to complete the work required under the contract, approval is required for this change order, with Yates Construction Company, in the amount of $200,000.00.
BACKGROUND:
This work consists of all labor, equipment, and materials required for installation of roadway improvements: unclassified excavation, storm drainage, asphalt paving, pavement markings, and erosion control; along with ADA compliant concrete curb cuts and driveways. The contract was awarded to Yates Construction Company with a bid of $2,604,101.93.
The additional costs are due to significant overrun in quantities for asphalt resulting from scope changes requested by the NCDOT.
The original contract amount is $2,604,101.93 and approval of this change order request in the amount of $200,000.00 will make the new contract value $2,804,101.93.
The contractor's DBE participation for the Construction Phase services is 27%.
Expenses associated with this change order are 100% Federal reimbursable. Staff will seek additional Federal funds to offset the use of City bond funds required for the change order.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Funds for this change order are budgeted in the following accounts:
220-4587-01.6014 A12081 $145,463 (State, Federal, and Other Grants Fund)
471-4502-23.6014 A17135 $54,537 (2008 Transportation Bond Fund)
A budget adjustment is required to move funds to the correct account.
