Background and Discussion:
The Lynwood Estates Subdivision is located in Precinct 3, north of Beltway 8 and west of Hardy Service Rd. The project will improve the existing public drainage system in order to reduce ponding during the 2-year, 10-year, and 100-year storm events. The improvements include upsizing existing inlets, installing storm sewers and upsizing the system’s outfall to reinforced concrete boxes, and adding a detention pond to avoid adverse impacts to the receiving waterways.
The change in contract includes the following:
The line items are adjusted to reconcile underrun quantities on the project for completion of the proposed scope of work.
- The increase of quantities on overrun line item numbers 4 and 6 for an addition in the amount of $1,321.10.
- The decrease of quantities on underrun line item numbers 3, 5, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 23, 33, 37, 38, 41, 47, 49, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, and 19A for a deduction in the amount of $260,273.45.
