SUMMARY AND ACTION REQUESTED:
The City Council is respectfully requested to consider approving, as part of the Consent Agenda, Change
Order No. 5 for the Keats MSA Street and Trunk Watermain Improvements, thereby increasing the
Contract Amount by $4,028.37. If removed from the consent agenda, the recommended motion for this
action is as follows:
“Move to approve Change Order No. 5 for the Keats MSA Street and Trunk Watermain Improvements” STAFF REPORT:
This change order provides compensation to the contractor for additional work completed at the direction
of the Project Engineer. Three hydrants were raised using hydrant extensions to provide better access to
the hydrant by public works and the fire department. Additional ditch grading and installation of erosion
prevention measures was completed to improve stormwater drainage in several locations along the project
corridor. The improved grading was ordered to better protect the new infrastructure.
Once the ditch grading and restoration was complete, the City identified three (3) hydrants that were at a
low elevation relative to the road. The Contractor extended the hydrants under direction from the City to
provide better access. Additional ditch grading was requested by the Project Engineer to ensure positive
drainage throughout the corridor and to install additional erosion control efforts not originally in the plan.
The Contractor is being paid for time and materials with the time, equipment, and labor tracked by the
City inspector.
