Magney Construction has completed all concrete pours and process installation. Electrical, <br />mechanical and plumbing subcontractors have completed their initial work and are working on punch list <br />items. A majority of architectural components are completed, leaving final painting, facility cleaning and <br />miscellaneous sealants to be completed. Civil sitework is completed, awaiting a final punch list walk <br />through in the spring. Water treatment has been commissioned with fmished water being sent to the <br />distribution system almost daily since January 21st, 2026. AE2S' engineering team has continued to <br />coordinate with Magney and further refine the details of installation of equipment. Through those <br />investigations we have identified some items that will require adjustments. This letter is intended to outline <br />those adjustments and summarize the current project contingency for the City to fully understand the status <br />of the project. <br />Basis of Construction Contingency Exnenses: <br />Currently twenty-two (22) requests for pricing (RFP) have been submitted to Magney. To date AE2S has <br />received pricing back on twenty-two (22) of the RFP's, and has received thirty-seven (37) separate <br />Contractor proposals. The Engineer has reviewed all of the received proposals and recommends that the <br />Owner move forward with approving Construction Contingency Expense No. 13, which includes Proposal <br />No. 057 and Proposal No. 058. Descriptions of the changes are described below and proposals and <br />associated initiation documents are attached for reference. If the Contractor would like to include a request <br />for extension as a result of these changes, a formal Change Order request will be issued at a different time. <br />Proposal <br />No. <br />Initiation <br />Description Total Cost <br />Required <br />001 RFP 001 <br />002 RFP 003 <br />003 Incidental <br />Mixing Pumps Pipe <br />Upsizing <br />Admin Ceiling Grid <br />Color <br />Building Permit <br />Reimbursement <br />Upsizing Air <br />$51,287.38 <br />$2,609.25 <br />$62,887.28 <br />004 RFP 002 Exchange in Plate $16,580.02 <br />Settler Room <br />Storm and Plumbing <br />Updates <br />Flowable Fill <br />Blower Pipe <br />Upsizing <br />Groundbreaking <br />008 Signage $956.12 <br />Reimbursement <br />005 <br />006 <br />007 <br />RFP 006 <br />RFP 005 <br />RFP 004 <br />City <br />Request <br />$22,550.28 <br />$55,230.60 <br />N <br />N <br />Y <br />N <br />Y <br />Y <br />Approved — <br />Construction Contingency Expense 1 <br />Approved — <br />Construction Contingency Expense 1 <br />Approved — <br />Construction Contingency Expense 2 <br />Approved — <br />Construction Contingency Expense 2 <br />Approved — <br />Construction Contingency Expense 1 <br />City and Engineer Rejected <br />Approved — <br />Construction Contingency Expense 2 <br />Approved — <br />Construction Contingency Expense 2 <br />Advanced Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. <br />6901 East Fish Lake Road, Suite 184 • Water Tower Place Business Center • Maple Grove, MN 55369 • 763-463-5036 <br />
