Ilf [RIN6 41SS0(I11TIS <br />February 9, 2007 <br />File No. 120020E -0071 <br />Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />City of Little Canada <br />515 Little Canada Road E. <br />Little Canada, MN 55117 -1633 <br />RE: 2005 STREET AND UTILITY IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT <br />CHANGE ORDER #2 <br />Dear Council Members: <br />During the course of the above referenced project the Contractor was directed to <br />complete extra work due to conditions that arose in the field and for the safety of the <br />public. This extra work was not included within the original bid and is to be covered by <br />issuance of Change Order #2. A summary of the changes completed are as follows: <br />• During the excavation for the installation of the retaining wall on Noel Drive <br />north of the City Hall, the watermain to the water tower was exposed to <br />determine if adequate cover would remain to protect against freezing. Based <br />on the watermain location and the change in grade from the wall construction <br />the Contractor was directed to install insulation over the watermain. <br />• The original plans for County Road B2 provided for temporary lanes to be <br />striped to distinguish the traffic lanes from the shared turn lane. After the <br />striping was completed it was felt that temporary arrows should also be <br />provided due to the changed lane configuration and to avoid driver confusion. <br />The painting of the arrows was not included in the original bid and as such <br />requires additional payment. <br />The total cost for the above described extra work was $1,804.98 and a summary of the <br />individual item costs are attached. All extra work quantities and costs have been <br />reviewed by our office and we would recommend approval of the attached Change <br />Order #2 for the 2005 Street & Utility Improvements project. <br />If you have any questions regarding this issue please feel free to call. <br />Sincerely, <br />ELFERING & ASSOCIATES <br />Lee Elfering, P.E. <br />City Engineer <br />cc: Bill Dircks, Public Works Director <br />Ltr- 020907 -CC (CO #2) <br />10062 Flanders Court NE, Blaine, MN 55449 - Phone: (763) 780 -0450 - Fax: (763) 780 -0452 <br />TAUS IIOATA <br />
