AUG 2 Q 1991 BOOK 84 PAGE Administrator Chandler announced that the Personnel Department is scheduling meetings for all County employees to explain the changes in health benefits. INDIAN RIVER BOULEVARD - PHASE III - CHANGE ORDER NO. 1 The Board reviewed the following memo dated 8/9/91: TO: James E. Chandler, County Administrator THROUGH: James W. Davis, P.E., Public Works Director FROM: Terry B. Thompson, P.E., Capital Projects Manager SUBJECT: Indian River Boulevard, Phase III Change Order No. 1 DATE: August 9, 1991 FILE: irbcol.agn DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS The Road and Bridge Division has 32,189.8 cubic yards of fill stockpiled across the street from their compound at 4621 41st Street. These stockpiles have become an attractive nuisance and a liability for the County. Dirt bikes are using the site on evenings and weekends despite posted no trespassing signs. The Contractor for Indian River Boulevard, Sheltra & Son Construction Co., has offered the County $32,189.80 for the stockpiled fill. This price is for the purchase of the material only, Sheltra will be responsible for loading and hauling the fill to the Indian River Boulevard site. Staff feels that a unit price of $1/cy is reasonable based on the current market. The Indian River Farms Water Control District recently bid some spoil dredged from the South Relief Canal and received bids of $.77/cy and $1/cy. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS The alternatives are as follows: Alternative No. 1 Authorize Change Order No. 1 deducting $32,189.80 from the contract amount for embankment. This would result in a revised contract amount of $2,711,619.35. Alternative No. 2 Deny authorization of the Change Order. RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING Staff recommends that Change Order No. 1 be approved. Funding is from account 309-214-541-066.51. 36
