T. "SONNY" DE <br />OWNERS AUTHORIZE P SENTATIVE <br />SUBJECT: INDIAN RIVER COUNTY JAIL - PHASE II <br />CHANGE ORDER NO. 4 <br />The subject Change Order is a summary of items that are required on <br />Phase II of the Jail Project. <br />Item 1. The second floor drains are required to eliminate water <br />running down stairs of the dormitory. The owner requested <br />the drains after the contract was awarded but refused design <br />cost due to having informed the architect of a similar <br />problem that existed in Phase I. <br />Item 2. The architect did not modify the door frame after submittal <br />of a change to the interior of this section. This work will <br />be at no cost to the owner. <br />Item 3. This is an eleven (11) day extension of the contract due to <br />rain days and additional work the contractor was asked to <br />perform. <br />Staff has reviewed these changes with both the architect and <br />contractor. It is recommended that the Board of County Commissioners <br />approved the Change Order and authorized) the Chairman to sign all <br />documents. <br />Commissioner Bird noted that the contractor requested a lot <br />of rain days that the architect did not approve, which makes him <br />question a bit the integrity of the contractor in trying to get <br />credit for rain days that apparently aren't there according to <br />the log. He felt this also tends to make you wonder whether he <br />might bear close watching in other areas. <br />Owners Representative, "Sonny" Dean explained that the <br />architect's representative on site keeps a daily log of the <br />workers on site, weather conditions, etc. When the contractor <br />made his request, they checked the log to see what the conditions <br />were, and on some of the dates, he worked part of the day and <br />some of the work at that time could have been done inside. Mr. <br />Dean believed the contractor was trying to get as much extension <br />as he could to avoid going into the penalty period. <br />10 <br />
