Title
APPROVING A CHANGE ORDER TO THE CONTRACT WITH SOUTHEASTERN ENGINEERING CONTRACTORS, INC. AWARDED UNDER RESOLUTION 17-154 FOR BID NO. 2018-002 - LIFT STATION NO. 21 RENOVATION; PROVIDING FOR AN INCREASE IN THE AMOUNT OF $147,907 TO THE ORIGINAL CONTRACT SUM OF $298,216.60; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
BACKGROUND:
Operations have commenced for the Lift Station No. 21 renovation project pursuant to Bid No. 2018-002 awarded under Resolution No. 17-154. Construction operations revealed that the existing lift station wet well, which was believed at the time of bidding to be 8 feet in diameter, is actually only 6 feet in diameter. This fact necessitated a design change and will ultimately require additional construction work and associated costs to achieve the required flow demand for the lift station renovation project.
Documents included as backup with this agenda item explain the technical need and outline the associated costs for the requested change order.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve
FISCAL IMPACT: $147,907
