CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM 6A STAFF ORIGINATOR: Diane Hankee PE, City Engineer MEETING DATE: June 28, 2021 TOPIC: Consider Resolution No. 21-65, Approving Change Order No. 1, 2021 Street Improvement Projects VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 INTRODUCTION Staff is requesting council approval of Change Order No. 1 for the 2021 Street Improvement Projects. BACKGROUND On February 8, 2021, the City Council awarded the bid for the 2021 Street Improvement Projects to T.A. Schifsky & Sons, Inc. in the amount of $2,180,005.23. Construction of the project has been begun in the Stage Coach Trail, Post Road, and Forsham Lake Drive neighborhood. The project included replacement of 10 water service connections in this neighborhood due to the potential for corroded services. The City has been including exploratory water service replacements on our annual street improvement projects since 2019. On the 2020 project, the services did not need replacement. On this year’s project, during one of the replacements, the water service failed before the contractor completed excavation of it. Other services replaced were corroded increasing early failures. Accordingly, project staff, including Public Services Utility Department, are recommending replacement of the additional 44 water services within the neighborhood. For Council consideration, WSB along with City staff have drafted Change Order No. 1 in the amount $248,215.42 to repair all of the water services in the neighborhood. The service work on this project is funded through the Water Fund. The 2021 Street Improvements Projects contract with T.A. Schifsky & Sons, Inc. with Change Order No. 1 would be increased to $2,428,220.65. RECOMMENDATION Staff is recommending approval of Resolution No. 21-65 for Change Order No. 1 in the amount of $248,215.42 for the 2021 Street Improvement Projects. ATTACHMENTS 1. Resolution 21-65 2.
