WHEREAS, on July 18, 2000, the City Council approved Resolution 2000-245

orders are approved; and
WHEREAS, the Policy authorizes the City Manager to approve change orders up to
$10,000; and
WHEREAS, the current change order limits are so low that on a project of this
magnitude, the City Manager's authority limit could be reached very quickly; and
WHEREAS, staff experience suggests that unforeseen conditions often result in the need
for change orders on remodel projects; and
WHEREAS, the delay associated with bringing every change order to Council for
approval may slow the work on the project causing increased cost to the City and delaying
completion o f the project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED the City Council of the City of Chula Vista
does hereby modify Council Policy Number 574-01 for the Public Works Operations Facility
and Corporation Yard by allowing the City Manager to authorize change orders up to $50,000
per single change order and $250,000 as the maximum aggregate for cumulative change orders.
