Explanation

1. BACKGROUND
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to modify and increase the construction contract with Complete General Construction Company for the Roadway Improvements - Twin Rivers Drive and Bikeway Development - Spot Improvements-Scioto-Olentangy-US33 project in the amount of up to $231,412.80 and to provide for additional construction administration and inspection services in the amount of $23,141.28.

Work performed to date consists of the asphalt having been milled on the east side of the roadway and an evaluation of the pavement base in order to determine the extent of the pavement base removal and replacement

Work to be performed includes, but is not limited to the removal of the pavement base and installing Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC). RCC is the most expedient and economical choice for pavement base on this project in order to keep the project on schedule and within original Capital Improvement Budgeted estimate.

The contract is being modified due to the condition of the pavement base. The contract notes indicated that the pavement base condition would have to be evaluated after asphalt milling operations to determine real time pavement base condition and the extent of the pavement base removal and replacement. After the asphalt was milled and pavement base was observed and evaluated; it has been determined that the condition of the pavement base is in far worse condition than expected. An opportunity is afforded at this juncture to complete the pavement reconstruction within the limits of the Project to the best condition practicable. This is a previously unanticipated expenditure.

Original contract amount: $966,914.09 (Ordinance 1638-2013, City contract number EL014713).
Amount of this modification: $231,412.80.
Total contract amount, including this contract modification: $1,198,326.89.
