Title
AUTHORIZE CHANGE ORDER NO. 1 IN THE AMOUNT OF $38,725.78 FOR THE RECONSTRUCTION OF 101ST AVENUE FROM FLANDERS STREET TO NAPLES STREET, IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 12-18
Background
On June 20, 2013, this project was awarded to Valley Paving, Inc. in the amount of $237,978.77, via Resolution No. 13-112. The additional work is to correct the uneven settlement that occurred in the bituminous during the placement of the wear course. Upon review of the compaction results of the aggregate base and the density cores of the bituminous it was determined that the construction and placement of the materials was not the cause of the settlements. Further investigation has resulted in an undetermined cause of the settlements. The change order will allow the contractor to mill and overlay 1.5 inches of bituminous from approximately station 2+10 to 23+58 for the entire width of the street. This additional work will be funded with Municipal State Aid funds and will have no impact on pending assessments.
Recommendation
By motion, approve Change Order No. 1 in the amount of $38,725.78, amending the total contract amount to $276,704.55, and authorize the Public Services Manager to sign said Change Order No. 1.
