DEC 15 1997t<oolc 70 rA U :343 <br />engineer; it is really due to having no outfall to the river. <br />However, there is some high water level there that is holding <br />water in the swales, and that could have been a design <br />miscalculation. <br />Chairman Scurlock asked what the 26 -day time extension would <br />do to us, and Director Davis advised that it is going to change <br />the completion date from January 11th to February 7th, and this <br />includes the F.E.C. and Southern Bell problems. <br />Commissioner Wheeler felt they should have anticipated the <br />problems with the F.E.C. <br />Commissioner Bird felt that people will be upset about <br />allowing a 26 -day extension for work amounting to only $4,070, <br />but Director Davis advised that another change order would be <br />coming through for the railroad work that was necessary due to <br />the F.E.C. raising the rails 4" in that area. The engineer <br />agrees with the time extension due to the F.E.C. and Southern <br />Bell problems. <br />With regard to the time extension for the contractor, <br />Director Davis didn't believe the contractor was going to be able <br />to meet the extended completion date of January 7th, because he <br />still has to put all the final asphalt on the road by that time. <br />He anticipated him filing for another time extension or that we <br />would be falling into liquidated damages. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously approved <br />Change Order #11 for the 12th Street Traffic 6 <br />Pedestrian Improvements and extended the the completion <br />date in the contract for 26 days to February 7, 1988. <br />8 <br />
