PINTO! <br />.Y <br />DIRECTOR OF UTILITYRVICES <br />PREPARED MICHAEL C. HOTCHKI S P.E. 7 <br />AND STAFFED ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEER <br />BY: DEPARTMENT OF UTILITY SERVICES <br />SUBJECT: 45TH STREET WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM <br />CHANGE ORDER AND FINAL PAY REQUEST <br />INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PROJECT NO. UW -94 -13 -DS <br />BID NO. 6067 <br />BACKGROUND <br />On December 19, 1995, the Board of County Commissioner's awarded <br />Bid No. 6041 to Timothy Rose Contracting in the amount of <br />$380,908.00 to provide water service and fire protection to the <br />above -referenced project. The project is now complete and the <br />Department of Environmental Protection has issued clearance to <br />begin connecting customers. The Department of Utility Services is <br />now prepared to make final payment to the contractor. <br />ANALYSIS <br />The attached change order reflects a $5,836.28 increase to the <br />contract for miscellaneous adjustments to labor and material <br />quantities. On August 27, 1996, the contractor was billed <br />$8,539.59 for damages to the County's sewer system located in the <br />vicinity of the water project. Upon further discussion with the <br />contractor it was agreed that part of the damage was due to <br />insufficient information available regarding utility locations and <br />part was due to the contractor's negligence (see attached <br />correspondence between County and contractor). County staff and <br />the contractor reached an agreement that half of the damages would <br />be covered by each party, resulting in a $4,269.79 reduction in the <br />contract price. The combination of the change order and the <br />recovery of damages results in an overall project increase of <br />$1,566.49, which adjusts the contract amount to $382,474.49. <br />The contractor was paid an initial draw in the amount of <br />$255,847.50 for 75% of the project, less retainage. Utilities <br />staff is now prepared to make final payment in the amount of <br />$126,626.99. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends that the <br />Board of County Commissioners approve Change Order No. 1, approve <br />final payment in the amount of $126,626.99 and authorize the <br />Chairman to execute same, as presented. <br />.TANU"Y 149 1997 39 <br />BOOK PAGE 09460 <br />
