title
Request for approval of change in contract No. 1 with Lecon, Inc, for the Lauder Stormwater Detention Basin - Phase 2, resulting in an addition of $1,732.24 to the contract amount. (Greens Bayou Watershed, Bond ID C-34, Project ID P500-06-00-E006, Job No. 22/0224, Precinct 2, MWDBE Contracted Goal: 17%, MWDBE Current Participation: 48.75%).

Background and Discussion:
The project consists of excavating the southern compartment of a stormwater detention basin within the former Castlewood subdivision to reduce flooding along the P138-00-00 channel that drains to Greens Bayou. Changes to the contract are required due to the following:
• Harris County Engineering Department’s Permitting Review, which identified the need to change from two 18” Reinforced Concrete Pipes (RCP) to a single 24” RCP at the project driveway.
• The bid failed to establish a dedicated bid item for trench shoring for excavation.
Expected Impact:
This change in contract is needed in order to complete the construction contract for this project. The requested items will ensure the work is completed properly.
Alternative Options:
This is an active construction contract, so there are not many alternatives to approving a change order for this $1,732.24 amount. The other option would be to cancel the contract and procure a new contractor. This is not recommended, as doing so would substantially delay the remaining work in the construction contract.
