Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into construction contract modifications for the 2024 Water Main Repairs project, CIP #690521-100012, with the following companies:
· Travco Construction Inc., in an amount up to $700,000.00.
· Eramo & Sons Inc., in an amount up to $700,000.00.
The scope of work for the contract is not changing. These contracts provide assistance to our water line maintenance crews in completing water main break repairs in a timely matter should the number of breaks exceed our normal maintenance capacities. These additional funds are being added to the original contract amounts due to higher than anticipated breaks occurring, resulting in a higher than anticipated need for outside assistance in making repairs.
The Community Planning Area is 99 - Citywide.
1.1 Amount of additional funds to be expended: $1,400,000.00
The bid amount and award amount for the Travco Construction contract was $768,352.75, including a 10% construction contingency amount. The modification amount for the Travco Construction contract is $700,000.00, including a 10% construction contingency amount that will be utilized to fund needed and approved changes in the work. No additional contract modifications are anticipated at this time; however, construction exigency might later compel modification of this contract, if unforeseen difficulties are encountered.
