Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to modify and increase an existing contract with Double Z Construction Company, in the amount of up to $30,000.00, for the Roadway Improvements- Smoky Row Road project.
This modification will fix problems with stormwater drainage and ponding at the intersection of Summit View and Smoky Row Road. This was not an anticipated modification. After initial completion of the improvement project at this intersection the Department of Public Service received 311 service requests and noticed that areas showed signs of standing water after rain events. Most of these areas will be corrected at no charge to the City as it was included in the original project scope of work. It has been determined there are other areas that were not addressed during the design and construction of this improvement. This modification will fund changes to significantly improve roadside drainage throughout the project corridor while addressing concerns of the residents.
Double Z Construction Company from the original contract with Public Service still has some remaining punch list work to complete on this project. It is most cost effective to have them finish the remaining punch list work and make these fixes at the same time. The modification will save time and construction fees as opposed to initiating a procurement effort for another construction contract specific to this project.
The original contract amount: $2,041,933.85 (EL017138, Ord. 1251-2015)
The total of Modification No. 1: $30,000.00
The contract amount including all modifications: $2,071,933.85
