Approval of ARKK Engineers, LLC. purchase order change orders for the City of Texas City's GLO Contract No. 22-119-003-D373 Community Development Block Grant Mitigation Program Infrastructure Projects Non-Research & Development Mitigation Funding.

As the overall amount of the grant funding did not change, the contract amendment needed only to be signed by the Mayor and Director of Finance. However, in order to make each of the four (4) engineering purchase orders match the revision requested by the GLO in their Texas Integrated Grant Reporting (TIGR) system, all four (4) individual purchase order amounts must be changed via Change Order. One of these changes is in excess of 25% of the original approved amount, and therefore, it must go before the City Commission.

Contract Amendment No. 1 with a full break down of all the changes requested, and change order is attached for your review.

It is the recommendation of the Public Works Department that these changes be approved.


Thank you.
