DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS On April 8, 2014, the County entered into a construction agreement with Bayshore Construction, Inc. to construct "Phase 213" wetland boardwalk and observation deck improvements on the Flinn Tract of the Lagoon Greenway (see Attachment 3). The Lagoon Greenway is located on the east side of Indian River Boulevard, south of Vero Beach city limits. Under the original construction agreement, the cost estimate for constructing the wetland boardwalk and lagoon observation deck was $278,393.91. For the Board's approval consideration, attached to this report are to two change orders that will revise the project cost to $283,903.76 (a net increase of $5,509.85). The Change Orders are summarized as follows: • Change Order 1: $6,452.00 for an additional 20 linear feet of wetland boardwalk and 116 additional linear feet of ADA hand railing, based on the actual linear footage needed to traverse the wetland vs. the bid contract estimate. Change Order 2: -$942.15 to account for an adjustment in building permit costs. The actual cost was $306.00, which is $942.15 less than the $1,248.15 estimate in the bid contract (re: a combined building permit was issued vs. two individual permits for the structures). 196
