Alternate One
4 5ths Vote: Yes No )
SUBMITTED BY. City Engineer ~,~ ( / ~-
Helton's Construction Company has requested an extension of cantract time for
the remodeling of the existing restaurant building and overhead trellis.
It is my
RECOMMENDATION: That Council approve the resolution granting a 15 working
day extension of contract time to Helton's Construction Comapny setting the
new completion date to September 25, 1981.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
Jessie Helton was awarded the contract, dated April 14, 1981, which provided
for 90 working days to complete the contract work. The contract completion
date is September 2,-1981.
Memorial Park improvements is being done under four separate contracts;
grading and surface improvements, landscape and irrigation, outdoor lighting
and well lights, and the remodeling of the existing restaurant building.
The three other contracts provided for 120 working days, while Helton's
contract allowed 90 working days.
Because of the uniqueness of the Memorial Park project, each separate contract
work was dependent on each other. The other contractors had to complete
certain work before Helton could proceed. Helton's remodeling work was
essentially at a standstill fora significant portion of his contract time
waiting for the other contractors to complete their work.
Helton's Construction Company is responsible for the outside of the remodeled
building. City forces are responsible for completing all interior work to the
building. Work to the building is expected to be completed and ready for
occupancy by November 1, 1981.
We have reviewed Helton's request for an extension of time and have determined
that a 15 working day time extension is justified. The extension when granted
will change the contract completion date to September 25, 1981.
FISCAL I P~1PACT
The City is presently paying rent on a month to month basis for the existing
Seniors Referral Center. Delay in the completion of the project could cost the
City an additional month's rent which is $300.00. Extending Helton's contract
time 15 working days has no fiscal impact on the City since Helton's contract
time did not expire until September 2nd and the City has to in any event rent
the existing facility for the Seniors Referral Center for the month of September.
