Title
Consider and take action on a resolution authorizing change order no. 1, in the amount of $38,402.54, and change order no. 2, in the amount of $139,979.96 with Paskey Incorporated for the Shellside Drainage Improvements Project, through the General Land Office, Community Development Block Grant, Disaster Recovery, Round 2.2 Program, GLO Contract No. 13-179-000-7292 (Director of Public Works)
Background:
Approval of this resolution will authorize the construction change order no. 1 in the amount of $38,402.54 and construction change order no. 2 in the amount of $139,979.96.
On March 28, 2016, City Council approved a resolution authorizing the construction contract for the Shellside Drainage Improvements Project, in the amount of $3,462,251.78, along with an expenditure of $346,225 for a work change directive budget.
Change order no. 1, in the amount of $38,402.54, represents a modification of project scope by reducing the portion of the upstream drainage improvements in order to compensate for the increased number of concrete and asphalt driveways that were estimated to be in the project limits. The original design for this project occurred in 2013 through the Engineering Contract between the GLO and Cobb, Fendley & Associates. Since that time, there has been an increase in home building development in the Shellside Community and numerous driveways have been constructed since 2013. Therefore, the project budget needed to be increased to accommodate replacement of the additional driveways and culverts that had been added to the area since 2013. Since the amount of this change order did not exceed the $50,000 staff level approval limit, change order no. 1 was approved administratively.
Change order no. 2, in the amount of $139,979.96, represents the addition of driveway and culvert quantities to reflect the actual number realized in the field, along with the cost for modifications to the street and driveway connections to FM 646 which were required by new 2016 TxDOT standards.
This is a Hurricane Recovery Project being funded by the General Land Office of the State of Texas to provide for disaster recovery and restoration of infrastructure for communities impacted by the 2008 hurricanes. Funds are allocated by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development through the Community Development Block Grant Program, League City’s contract number 13-179-000-7292.
The City’s Grant Administrator, Riveron Corporation, has confirmed that these change orders are within the scope of the performance statement and will be paid by the GLO.
With approval of change order no. 1 and change order no. 2, the contract amount will be adjusted as follows:
Original Contract Amount $ 3,462,251.78
Change Order No. 1 $ 38,402.54
Change Order No. 2 $ 139,979.96
Adjusted Contract Amount $ 3,640,634.28
Adequate funds are available in the GLO, CDBG, Disaster Recovery Round 2.2 Program.
