Title

Approval of Garrison Park Change Order #1 Bid Set 2

Body

SUMMARY: The Contractor has encountered rock on the installation of the storm sewer, sanitary sewer and the splash pad plumbing. He also encountered unsuitable soils in the building footprint. Rock and unsuitable soils were bid at a unit price with no quantities. The Engineering Department has calculated the quantities with the contractor as the work has progressed. The Contractor has encountered many weather delays due to rain. The Change order is attached.

The total cost of work calculates to be an additional $49,570 and the Contractor has agreed to give a credit of $15,000 for layout work. This yields a contract change price of $34,570.The contractor is claiming 117 weather days and 25 additional days for rock excavation but due to the grant deadline, he is only asking for 25 additional days with a completion date of April 12^th.

The current contract completion date is March 5^th. The grant completion date is Sunday April 14^th. If the project is not submitted to TDEC for 100% completion by April 14th the City will lose $125,000. The City Manager and the Director of Engineering have met with the Contractor to discuss the possibility of the City completing portions of the work in order to meet the April 14^th deadline.  This will require a budget amendment.
