Title
Authorize the City Manager to execute Change Order No. 3 to Bid No. 2016-051, 2016 Annual Pavement Milling and Overlay Project (Section B), with Austin Bridge & Road, Inc., in the amount of $181,300.00.
Body
City Council approved Bid No. 2016-051 on March 7, 2016, in the amount of $4,106,000.00, for milling of the existing surface and laying a new, reinforced, concrete surface on the streets. Pavement milling and surface reconstruction is the third step in completing the repair work on the streets identified in the street bond program.
On December 6, 2016, the City Manager approved Change Order No. 1 in the amount of $20,276.20 to purchase plastic wheel stops to help aid in protecting newly placed concrete. The project had been experiencing difficulty in getting residents to abide by cones and caution tape and this will provide a more physical barrier while concrete is curing. Wheel stops will become the property of the City once the contract is completed.
On May 1, 2017, the City Council approved Change Order No. 2 in the amount of $74,120.00 for price escalation on the renewal of the annual contract. The contract provisions allow for price escalation due to material price increases of concrete and rebar cost.
On August 6, 2018, City Council directed staff to move forward with implementing changes proposed in the process evaluation completed by CP&Y. This change order, in the amount of $181,300.00, is to account for the contract changes needed in order to implement the proposed changes and focuses on two main items: 1) changes in curing process and 2) changes in steel reinforcement.
Financial Implications
Funding has been allocated for this project from Street Bond funds
Recommended/Desired Action
