Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request for approval of change in contract No. 1 with Environmental Allies, Inc. for the Morningside Place Drainage Project, resulting in an addition of $4,455.97 to the contract amount. (Clear Creek Watershed, Bond ID F-01, Project ID A135-01-00-E001, Job No. 23/0025, Precinct 1, MWDBE Contracted Goal: 22%, MWDBE Current Participation: 35.06%).
end
Background and Discussion:
The purpose of this contract change is to add new pay items that are required for both tree removal and guardrail replacement. The objective of the Morningside Place Drainage Improvements Project is to improve local drainage issues and reduce the risk of flooding in the Morningside Place subdivision. This project will construct new outfalls, make improvements to the storm sewers, relocate the flap gate within Tributary A135-01-00, and lower the water surface elevation of the subdivision stormwater detention basins. This contract change does not add any days to the project schedule.
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
