Funding Source: 350-0310-55000.1806
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Change Order #2 with Prosser-Dagg Construction Co. LLC for the VHS Concrete Replacement project in the Amount of $54,917.50
SUMMARY STATEMENT:
During construction, it was found that the existing thicknesses of the concrete was 8 inches, or up to 12 inches, and not at 6 inches, which was specified in the construction documents and noted on the as-builts. Due to the increase of the leveling course needed to make up the difference in those areas, the current total below for leveling course is required. This is a conservative estimate due to demo work still taking place in certain locations and is not based on an actual needed quantity. The original sidewalk demolition and concrete sidewalk quantity was miscalculated during design, which caused an increase to these quantities during construction. The additional quantities added for curb demolition and concrete curb were due to additional sections requiring repair because of wear over this past winter.
Leveling Course - $20,625
Sidewalk Demolition - $7,812.5
Curb Demolition - $480
Concrete Curb - $2,000
Concrete Sidewalk - $24,000
Grand Total: $54,917.50
While these changes are significant, we have identified the root causes and can avoid similar situations in the future. The pricing is based on the unit prices provided at bid time and the project remains within the approved budget.
