Explanation
Background: This legislation modifies and increases the existing construction contract with Kokosing Construction Company, Incorporated, for the Greenlawn Avenue Improvement - OPWC project in the amount of $234,628.53. The project limits are from Scioto Boulevard to Harmon Avenue. The plan details the construction of new curbs, sidewalks, storm and sanitary drainage, water service, traffic signals, and trees. This contract is being modified to account for separating existing storm and sanitary sewer lines and structures within the construction limits; the relocation of a sanitary main from the roadway to Berliner Park; the relocation of Electricity Division poles and lines on Harmon Avenue; the relocation of water lines arising from the latter and a charge of $462.04 payable within the Transportation Division for the special services of a City work crew. Changes in the location of storm and sanitary mains on Greenlawn Avenue, as well as incomplete plan information, forced the abandonment of some existing lines and the installation of new ones. The work was performed at the request of the Sewerage and Drainage Division, who will reimburse the Transportation Division for agreed-upon costs. OPWC will pay the contractor directly for a percentage of the modification amount. Prices were obtained by negotiations with Kokosing Construction Company using existing unit prices for items already bid and past project prices for new items.
Kokosing Construction Company, Incorporated's contract compliance number is 31-1023518 and expires March 14, 2005. The original contract amount was for $7,034,653.39.
