Background and Discussion:

This change in contract is needed to complete the construction contract for this project. Contract Change No. 1 includes help to reduce the risk of flood damage in the Armand Bayou Watershed by constructing the Brookglen Stormwater Detention Basin project in the Brookglen Subdivision. The Project is the second compartment of a suggested sequencing plan of proposed projects. The purpose of this contract change is to increase the quantity of the pay item for stabilized construction access, correct the unit of measurement for sidewalk items, and remove the Harris County Engineering Department General Conditions. The contract change includes $0 and 0 days.

 

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 no alternatives to approving a change order other than

cancelling the contract. Cancelling the contract change would substantially delay the remaining work in the

construction contract.
