HOTCHKISS, P.E. <br />AND STAFFED ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEER <br />BY: DEPARTMENT OF UTILITY SERVICES <br />SUBJECT: MARTIN AVENUE SEWER PROJECT <br />FINAL PAY REQUEST <br />INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PROJECT NO. US -97 -01 -CS <br />WIP NO. 472-000-169-320.00 <br />LABOR CONTRACT NO. 4007 <br />BACKGROUND <br />On May 26, 1998, the Board of County Commissioners authorized Driveways, Inc. to construct a <br />force main to provide sewer service to the above -referenced project and to collect line extension <br />fees from customers who wish to connect to the sewer system (see attached meeting of minutes). <br />Construction of the project is now complete and the Department of Environmental Protection <br />(DEP) has issued clearance to begin connecting customers to the system. The Department of Utility <br />Services is requesting approval for the attached final payment to the contractor and to begin <br />collecting connection fees (based on the final construction costs) from customers as they connect. <br />ANALYSIS <br />The attached final pay request is for $3,054.27 and represents 18.7 % of the labor contract amount <br />of $16.367.66. Utilities staff is now prepared to make final payment in the amount of $3,054.27. <br />The original project included cost for _installing ductile iron pipe (DIP). During the construction <br />permit review with DEP, the Utilities Department was able to obtain approval to se3stitute high <br />density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe for the originally proposed DIP, resulting in a material cost <br />savings of $13,446.57 (62.7%) of the $21,444.44 that was originally estimated (see attached <br />meeting of minutes). Also, the originally estimated $1,636.77 contingency was not needed (due to <br />favorable conditions in the field), resulting in a total project cost savings of $15,083.24 (35.2%) of <br />the originally estimated $42,848.87. The total construction cost of the project is as follows: <br />Labor Contract $16,367.66 <br />Material $7,997.87 <br />Engineering, Inspection and Permitting $3.400.00 <br />Total Project Cost $27,765.53 <br />During construction, one of the parcels in the Phase 2B area was subdivided. The new lot is <br />adjacent to the force main constructed during the Phase 2A project. As a result, the total area to <br />share in the cost of construction of Phase 2A increased from 81,151 GSF to 84,157 GSF (30% of <br />.23 acres or 3,006 GSF-see attached Property Appraiser's summary sheet of new lot). 'The revised <br />cost-sharing summary is as follows: <br />September 22, 1998 <br />0 <br />102 <br />• <br />'A <br />
