E. Wylie Construction Company in the amount of $2,468,000 to construct the Town Centre Parking Structure. As a result of the bond issue to underwrite the construction, the City Council took over the responsibility to oversee the parking structure construction and subsequent use. Now the structure is being built and there are several changes that are determined necessary to the ultimate goal of a well-structured facility. RECOMMENDATION: That Council approve the attached resolution approving change orders 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 10 in the amount of $46,844.17. BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable. DISCUSSION: Change Order No. 2 In December 1982, two addendums were issued pertaining to the bid documents for the parking structure. The addendums were published in response to contractor' s questions regarding specified items or construction details. As a result, several changes were made to the bid documents that caused an increase in materials and installation costs, namely: 1 . Adding illuminated vehicle barriers (or bollards) at the $ 3,865.00 entrance to the service road; a Design Review Committee recommendation that was added after the bid was accepted. 2. Installing a fire hydrant and water main as requested $12,392.00 by the Fire Marshal to comply with the Uniform Fire Code. 3. Add striping to the parking structure paving when completed. $ 311 .64 The striping will create additional parking spaces. 4. Add facing brick and pavers per the request of Design $11 ,993.00 Review Committee at the time of review of the parking structure design concept. Page 2, Item 11 Meeting Date 8/30/83 5. Add monies for the subcontractor bond. The increase 272.53 in the contract automatically increases the contractor' s bond amount, thereby increasing the premium to be paid. TOTAL $28,834.17 Change Order No. 3 The architect/engineer with the concurrence of the Design Review Committee suggested that additional brick be installed in the areas around an important stairway entrance. This entrance is mid-way from the Marie Callender Restaurant and the then proposed office/commercial site. At that time, it was not known that the Seafood Broiler restaurant was going to be situated nearby. $1,718 Change Order No. 5 The architect designed a drainage system for the elevator pit that was intended to take ponded water at the bottom of the pit to the newly constructed storm drain. The Daves Elevator Company, supplier of the elevator, recommended that this drainage scheme be modified to avoid water backing up into the pit; thus making the elavator motor inoperable. Consequently, the architect and the elevator company suggested the purchase of the necessary equipment to install and make fully operable a sump pump with accompanying piping, values and fittings. $2,332 Change Order No. 6 The Fire Marshal has requested that a fire hose with a siamese connection be made to the building standpipe system. This was determined to be a necessary safety measure concurrent with Change Order No. 2 (fire hydrant) . $1 ,415 Change Order No. 7 As development plans unfold for the Focus Area, and specific land uses become known, there is an ever-present need to provide as much parking as possible on the parking structure site and in the structure itself. The City Engineering Department, in cooperation with the consultant architect, has provided a modified plan showing changes that the consultant engineer must do to increase the number of surface parking areas around the periphery of the structure. The parking count now stands at 676 spaces in the structure, plus 29 spaces outside of the structure for a total of 705 spaces. Of this total , 211 are compact car spaces. The curbs, elevation and grades that will be placed in conjunction with the paved entrances and streets have to be revised per City Engineer' s requirements if the surface parking areas are to be expanded. Also, the number of contractors on the site and surrounding construction sites and the work they are doing has made it difficult to protect the construction stakes precisely set into the ground by the consultant engineer' s survey crews. These stakes are relied upon to place footings, columns and walls for the structure. Hence, restaking had to occur several times. $9,240 Page 3, Item 11 Meeting Date 8/30/83 Change Order No. 10 Add pre-cast concrete 10-1/2 feet long aprons that are to be installed as part of the stairway. These aprons were originally not thought to be essential to the visual quality of the structure. However, as construction progressed, the need for these pre-cast forms became evident. They serve the purpose of integrating the stairway within the brick veneered radius walls. Further, they conceal the iron and steel work that support the stairway and make the stairs architecturally compatible with the structure. $3,305 Change Order No. 1 has been approved for $35,346 for the pedestrian bridge. This was done by the Agency as Resolution No. 11123 when bid award was made and the bond issue was authorized. Change Orders No. 4, 8, and 9 are each less than $1,000 and were approved by the Director of Building and Housing per Section 2-03 of the specifications. FISCAL IMPACT: A contingency amount of $125,000 was set aside from the Parking Structure Bond proceeds for the express purpose of funding changes orders. The amount of these change orders is $46,844.17 leaving a balance of $41,067.83 unexpended. Contract Amount $ 2,468,000.00 Contingency 125,000.00 $ 2,593,000.00 Amount of Change Orders 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 & 10 $ 82,190.17 Amount of Change Orders 4, 8 & 9 $ 1 ,742.00 DZ:fp WPC 0788H [- 1 e901V/t41-2.A.--e,"--- P i 1 ,,,----_3 0 .."r_s_i
