Case #11: Authorize Change Order to Install Sanitary Sewer and Watermain on Basalt Street South of 141st Avenue Mayor Gamec left the meeting at 9:27 p.m. Assistant Public Works Director Olson explained Ace Solid Waste is anticipating constructing a new building in the northwest comer of their McKinley Street site. Providing sewer and water to this location would be more easily extended to this location from Basalt Street than from their existing site. Ace has requested the extension of utilities down Basalt Street to facilitate this connection. Ace is agreeable to paying the appropriate hookup costs. The work requested by Ace could be accomplished through a change order extending the scope of Project 03-27. There would be a letter of agreement with Ace Solid Waste which identifies their share of the cost. Staff has received an estimate fi'om W.B. Miller, Inc. for the cost of the change order in the amount of $24,279.25. Ace's share of the cost would be $15,533.25. Staff recommends that Council approve the change order. Motion by Councihnember Elvig, seconded by Councilmember Kurak, to adopt Resolution 04- 05-113 authorizing Change Order No. 1 to Improvement Project 03-27 in the amount of $24,279.25 contingent upon Ace Solid Waste entering into an agreement to pay their share of the project cost which is estimated to be $15,533.25. Further discussion: Councilmember Kurak asked if anyone else is being serviced for the line after this point. Assistant Public Works Director Olson responded in the negative. Coul~cilmember Cook asked if the change order includes a meter. Assistant Public Works Director Olson replied this is just putting the water and sewer in the street right-of-way. Ace will connect fi'om there onto their property and will have to put the meter on. Mayor Pro Tern Zimmerman asked if the trucks will be cleaned here. Assistant Public Works Director Olson replied Ace has a holding pond on their site and they have a building that was approved earlier this year for the transfer station they want to build. All the site drainage goes into that holding pond. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Pro Tern Zimmerman, Councilmembers Elvig, Kurak, Cook, Pearson, and Strommen. Voting No: None.
