Request for approval of change in contract No. 8 with Lecon, Inc., for Major Maintenance of Cypress Creek and Tributaries Batch 3, adding 89 calendar days (Cypress Creek Watershed, Project ID K100-00-00-X087, Job No. 22/0085, Precincts 1 and 3, MWDBE Contracted Goal: 20.5%, MWDBE Current Participation: 20.79%).

Background and Discussion:

This project includes sediment removal, and the repair of erosion and infrastructure damage caused by the Harvey and Memorial Day storms across thirteen (13) sites in the Cypress Creek Watershed.

 

The purpose of this contract change is to extend the time of completion to repair additional erosion areas on K124-00-00, and due to inclement weather. The contract change includes an extension of 89-days which consists of 70-days to complete additional erosion repairs on K124-00-00, and 19-days due to inclement weather. 

 

Expected Impact:

This change will allow the contractor to construct the project so that Harris County can realize intended flood risk reduction benefits. 

 

Alternative Options:

This is an active construction contract, so there are not many alternatives to approving a change order other than cancelling the contract which is not recommended as doing so would substantially delay the remaining work in the construction contract.

 

Alignment with Goal(s):

_ Justice and Safety

_ Economic Opportunity

_ Housing

_ Public Health

_ Transportation

X Flooding

_ Environment

_ Governance and Customer Service
