Title
Approval of final change order for removal, repair, and installation of transfer pumps at Meadow Park Lake Water Treatment Plant
Body
SUMMARY: This project has been completed and a final change order with John Bouchard & Sons is attached which includes a time extension and an increase in contract amount of $11,990.00.
The time extension should be approved because of the timing of receiving parts and the City also held the contractor up on three occasions. The increase in the contracted amount is due to the original pumps were installed before the roof was installed on the building and the contractor had to cut the pump columns and the drive shafts into two pieces for removal and the Contractor also had to install flanges in pump column and couplings in the pump drive shafts in order to reinstall the pumps. This was additional work that was not known and or anticipated when the project was bid.
The Director of Engineering recommends the approval of the change order.
A copy of the change order, executed by the Contractor, will be available at the meeting.
