This project is funded by 1913 Act Assessment District proceedings and consists of grading, street, drainage, sewer and utility improvements. To date, four change orders have been approved as follows: Change Order No. Approval Date Amount 1 June 5, 1987 $ 856.00 2 July 21, 1987 (Reso. #13161) ( 18,760.00) 3 March 15, 1988 (Reso. #13485) ( 14,799.00) 4 April 5, 1988 (Reso. #13516) 17,271.50 The net result was to decrease the contract amount from $1,195,970 to $1,180,538.50. Proposed Change Order No. 5 is for the inclusion of additional sewer and water laterals to properties owned by Mr. Roy Shepard and Mascot Realty, Inc.; to compensate contractor for extra work items; and to reduce the removal and recompaction of alluvium bid quantity. This change order has the net result of reducing the contract amount $62,152.49 to a revised amount of $1,118,386.01. To accomplish the various items of work added to the contract, Erreca's Inc. requested a contract time extension of 15 working days. Staff finds this request to be reasonable. RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt the resolution approving Change Order No. 5; extending the contract time (15 working days); and authorizing the Director of Public Works to execute it on behalf of the City. BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable. Courcil o b the City Chula Vista Ca~~fornia Dated d ___- • Page 2, Item 11 Meeting Date~i/T/$S- DISCUSSION: Proposed Change Order No. 5 would amend the contract to: a) Accommodate/compensate the contractor for additional work done on behalf of Mr. Roy Shepard and Mascot Realty, Inc. This work includes the installation of one sewer lateral for Mr. Shepard's parcel; the installation of three water services (one for Mr. Shepard and two for Mascot Realty); the revision to underground gas, electric and telephone facilities at each of the two owners properties. The cost for this work totals $1,881 for Mr. Shepard and $8,110.12 for Mascot Realty, Inc. Both property owners have deposited their share of the cost increase to enable the City to pay the contractor on their behalf. b) Realign the Sweetwater Authority's 8-inch water main on "D" Street. The cost for this work totals $3,351.39. c) Add two fire hydrants and relocate two fire hydrants. The cost of this work totals $5,350. ($4,200 for the new hydrants and $1,150 for the relocation of the fire hydrants.) • d) Revise the retaining wall at the southeast corner of the "D" Street/Second Avenue intersection to adequately provide for the existing lot topography. The cost of this work totals $2,225. e) Adjust the bid quantity for "Removal and Recompaction of Alluvium" to reflect actual volume removed and recompacted. This action will reduce the contract quantity from 110,000 cubic yards to 46,100 cubic yards and the contract price by $83,070 ($63,900 cubic yards x $1.30 per cubic yard). f) Extend the contract time by 15 working days to provide the contractor adequate time to complete the changes enumerated above. The net effect of the proposed Change Order #5 is to decrease the contract amount $62,152.49. The revised contract amount is now $1,118,386.01. We recommend that the changes be approved because by planning ahead both Mr. Shepard and Mascot Realty, Inc. have installed the facilities needed to serve their future development plans. This will preclude the need to trench within a newly paved street when they obtain approval of their respective development plans. The other items on the change order are required for accountability of the contract and/or to compensate the contractor for corrective work. FISCAL IMPACT: The contract will be decreased by $62,152.49. The funds to cover the cost of additional items of work to serve properties owned by Mr. • Roy Shepard and Mascot Realty, Inc. have been deposited with the City. WPC 3789E / ~~ ~~
