CASE HIGHWAY #10 SEWER AND WATER CHANGE ORDER NO. 1 AND FIRST PARTIAL PAYMENT By: Steven J. Jankowski, City Engineer Backgroun!d: The HighwaY #~10 Sewer and Water Project was awarded November 1991 at the bid price of $138,150.2,0; At~ the present time, the project is complete with the exception of final pavement and turf restoration, iPartial payment No. 1, enclosed, represents payment for the installed quantities. Most item iqgantities compare exactly with the estimated quantities in the bid; however, some changes were neCessitated due to field conditions. A manhole was added to avoid conflicts with existing stnj0~tur~s and utilities and the watermain was relocated to the opposite side of that planned to avoid u~{lermining a structural canopy alongside ParaBody's loading dock. The other deviations hr~,olved modifications caused by connection to existing septic tank discharges. During the course 0~ the~project, more existing tanks were discovered which consequently required more connections and pipe. Also during the course of the project, J.R.'s Saloon indicated a desire to provide a two-inch copper service in place Of the one-inch service specified to insure adequate reserve capacity for future expanded us~s. The additional costs for this modification were solicited from the contractors and presented t0 the owner of J.R.'s Saloon before the change was authorized. The cost of this change totals $4,883.25 as detailed in Richard Knutson, Inc.'s, letter of April 14, 1992. All costs associated with s~ervices will be assessed directly to the benefited property as opposed to being charged agai0st the general project and being divided among the project beneficiaries. In addition, the contractOt has submitted a payment request in the amount of $330 for two hours of labor and machine time;'to locate the existing end of the main which was located approximately 20 feet farther than it was i/¢di¢~tted on the as-built plans. In addition, the actual plug location was in an area congested by a gas main and five telephone and cable television cables, as opposed to the unencumbered area anticipated on the plans. Change Order No. 1 will increase the project contract $5,213.25. The additional quantities contained in Pay Estimate No. 1 will increase the contract amount an additional $1,099.81. Recommendatiou: I recommend [ado, pting the enclosed resolution approving Project #91-01 Change Order No. 1 and approving pa~ial Pay Estimate No. 1.
