City Council Meeting [Consent Agenda Item 5]
February 5, 2014
-- page 2 --
“Move to accept the improvements for the Keats MSA Street and Trunk Watermain Improvements and approve Pay Request No. 6 (Final) to T.A. Schifsky & Sons, Inc. in the
amount of $93,367.12.” LEGISLATIVE HISTORY/BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
T.A. Schifsky & Sons, Inc. has completed the Keats MSA Street and Trunk Watermain Improvements in accordance with the construction contract awarded by the council on April 16, 2013. The Project Engineer has prepared a Certification of Completion indicating that all work is competed including all punchlist items and is recommending acceptance of the improvements
and release of the final retainage. Project acceptance will initiate the one-year warranty period
for the improvements. The one-year warranty period will begin on February 5, 2014, and will extend to February 5, 2015. The final total construction cost for the project is $1,650,400.93 which is 2.7% over the original
contract amount of $1,606,833.47. Added project costs are primarily related to poor soil
conditions found in the field during construction. The total project costs remain under budget. The Project is being funded through the Municipal State Aid construction account, the MN-DEED water system grant, and through the levy of special assessments to benefitting properties.
Final payment will be made to the Contractor, including the release of all retained funds, upon
receipt of the Contractor’s signed Pay Request No. 6 and receipt of all lien waivers. RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is recommending that the City Council consider, as part of the Consent Agenda, accepting
the improvements for the Keats MSA Street and Trunk Watermain Improvements and approving Pay Request No. 6 (Final) in the amount of $93,367.12. If removed from the consent agenda, the recommended motion for this action is as follows:
“Move to accept the improvement for the Keats MSA Street and Trunk Watermain Improvements and approve Pay Request No. 6 (Final) to T.A. Schifsky and Sons, Inc. in the
amount of $93,367.12.”
