Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to execute a final construction contract modification with the C.J. Mahan Construction Company, LLC, for the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant New Headworks project. This modification, in the amount of $1,500,000.00, will provide increased funding for material escalation costs and to address the remaining change orders for additional contract work that is necessary to successfully complete the Raw Sewage Pump Building construction, the total of which would exceed the original contract contingency amount.
The original contract award was $50,868,825.00. Modification No. 1 provided $9,861,370.00 in contingency funds required for flood recovery efforts due to the January 2005 site flooding. The total contract, including this modification, will result in a final contract appropriation of $60,730,195.00. Due to the complex and comprehensive nature of this project this additional work could not be foreseen, and it is not practical or feasible to undertake a new procurement to deliver these services. At the current time, division engineering and the City's construction manager are confident that the funds authorized by this contract modification will be sufficient to complete the scope of work and ensure optimum operational use of this infrastructure.
