Purpose and Request:

title:

Recommendation for approval of Change in Contract No. 2 with Ragle, Inc., for the South Rice Avenue and Chimney Rock bridges, resulting in an increase of $15,508. (Brays Bayou Watershed, Bond ID C-11, Project ID D100-00-00-B030, Job No. 20/0347-02, Precinct 3).

Background and Discussion:

The purpose of this change in contract is adjust the planned and projected quantity needed for utility coordination and asphalt pavement removal.  A power pole must be relocated out of the area of proposed pavement and additional funds are needed.  The quantity for removal of existing asphalt pavement at South Rice was not included in the contract bid quantities.  This results in a net increase of $15,508 to the contract with no additional days.

 

Fiscal Impact: The contract value increased by $15,508.

Alternatives:

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.
