ACCEPT CHANGE ORDER TO GLEN REHBEIN COMPANIES FOR SUNWOOD DRIVE NW AND RHINESTONE STREET NW IMPROVEMENT PROJECT 03-29 By: Leonard Linton, Civil Engineer Background: This project was authorized for construction of MSA Streets in Ramsey Town Center. ' The work includes extension of trunk sanitary through the Ramsey Town Center Project. The sanitary sewer pipe to be installed is 30". The pipe was connected to the existing system on the west side of Ramsey Boulevard at 143~d Avenue. The existing'line is 27". This was known and it was planned that the line would need to be changed to 30" pipe in the future. Inspection of the line under Ramsey Boulevard indicated that the pipe had a 6" sag between manholes. Ramsey Boulevard will be reconstructed in 2005. The contractor had to dewater to install the new pipe for Ramsey Town Center that connects to the existing manhole. The contractor has the equipment and pipe onsite at this time. It seems logical to replace the pipe under Ramsey Boulevard now while the contractor is onsite and before the street is reconstructed rather than come back and dewater in 2005 for a short length of pipe. There is additional 27" pipe on the east side of Ramsey Boulevard that will need to be replaced in the future. Replacing this section of pipe now will eliminate the need to dig into the newly reconstructed street. The Public Works Committee reviewed this item at their meeting June 15, 2004. They recommended forwarding this to the City Council for approval. Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of Change Order #1 to Project 03-29. Action: Motion to approve Change Order #1 to Improvement Project #03-29 in the amount of $16,847.20 made by , seconded by The following voted in favor thereof: and the following voted against the same: -323-
