Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute Change Order No. 3 with Chasco Contracting for the Downtown Streets, Phase I, Street Reconstruction Project. Department: Engineering and Development Services Staff Person: Tom Word, Chief of Public Works Operations Justification: Compensation for increased construction difficulty resulting from presence of rock subgrade in the field. Funding: Cost: $19,000.00 Source of funds: Capital Project Funds (2001 GO Bond) Outside Resources: Chasco Contracting Baker Aicklen & Associates, Inc. Background Information: The noted project consisted of the reconstruction of Pecan, Circle Ave, Parkway, Nelson and a portion of Black St. from Austin Ave. to Circle Ave., including replacement of water and wastewater mains and services. Also included in the project were parking improvements at Veterans Park. Soil borings were obtained during the engineering phase of the project and the boring Togs were included in the project manual. According to the boring logs, rock subgrade was not indicated along Circle Ave. However, the Contractor found he had to excavate through rock to install the water, wastewater and storm sewer pipes within Circle Ave and is requesting additional compensation. By the letter of the contract and specifications, the City is not obligated to render the additional compensation. However, it can be reasonably conceived that the bid price would have been somewhat higher had the Contractor known about the rock that would be encountered. Since the improvements occurred in a developed area, the Contractor did not follow his standard practice of exploratory excavation prior to submitting his bid. Our consultant researched the rock excavation and concluded that approximately $19,000 would be reasonable compensation for the difficulty encountered. Due to the unanticipated field conditions and the Contractor's explanation that he relied on the information supplied by the City, we recommend that the City render additional compensation, in amount not to exceed $19,000.
