Explanation
BACKGROUND This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to modify a contract on behalf of the Office of Construction Management with Gutknecht Construction Company for renovation of the garage deck concrete for City Hall, 90 West Broad Street.
The original contract was authorized by Ordinance No. 1504-2015, passed June 24, 2015, for the repair of cracks in the existing concrete roof deck of the City Hall underground parking garage. A modification of the contract is necessary to continue to repair additional cracks in the concrete roof deck within the City Hall garage. Due to the fact that Gutknecht was awarded the original contract, an ongoing modification with Gutknecht is the logical and most expeditious option. Selecting another contractor could lead to duplicated work and delays. Therefore, it is not in the best interest of the City to select another contractor for these services. Prices already established in the contract were used to determine the cost of this modification.
Emergency action is requested in that it is immediately necessary to authorize the Director to modify a contract with Gutknecht Construction Company for the renovation of the garage deck concrete for City Hall to avoid delays in the renovation.
Gutknecht Construction Company Contract Compliance Co. 31-0935568
Fiscal Impact: Funding for this contract modification is budgeted and available within the Construction Management Capital Improvement Fund in an amount equal to $5,000.00. The original contract with Gutknecht Construction Company for renovation of the City Hall garage roof deck was for $75,000.00. This contract modification will bring the total contract amount with Gutknecht Construction Company to $80,000.00.
