SUMMARY AND ACTION REQUESTED:
The City Council is respectfully requested to consider approving Change Order No. 2 for the Keats MSA Street and
Trunk Watermain Improvements.
STAFF REPORT:
This Change Order was initiated and requested by the city. The change order includes the removal of a large cotton
wood tree that was originally intended to be saved. The tree and root system was found in the field to be interfering
with a storm sewer pipe and undermining the roadway bedding. Removal of the tree always for the replacement of a
storm sewer culvert and will protect the future integrity of the road. The Contractor, T.A. Schifsky and Sons, Inc.,
provided a quote of $3,960.00 to remove the tree which was reviewed and approved by the Engineer. The change is
within the scope of the current project budget and contingencies.
Change Order No. 2 results in an increase of $3,960.00 to the current Contract amount. With approval of this Change
Order, the revised Contract amount will be $1,610,793.47.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is recommending that the City Council consider approving, as part of the Consent Agenda, Change Order No. 2
for the Keats MSA Street and Trunk Watermain Improvements in the amount of $3,960.00. If removed from the
consent agenda, the recommended motion for this action is as follows:
“Move to approve Change Order No. 2 for the Keats MSA Street and Trunk Watermain Improvements” ATTACHMENT(S):
