Information
PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
The City engaged CTA Architects and Engineers to develop demolition and site restoration specifications and to inspect the work for demolishing the former Naval Reserve Center, located at 717 N 22nd Street. During the demolition, PRPL staff recognized that a change to the planned underground irrigation system design would function better for this site and would better fit in with and improve the rest of the North Park irrigation system. Staff requested that CTA perform additional services to design and inspect this change. The original contract was within the City Administrator's signing authority but the change order creates a total contract amount that is greater than her authority and is in an amount that exceeds her authority to approve change orders up to 10% of a contract's total value.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYZED
Council may:
- Approve the change order; or
- Not approve the change order.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
This Change Order is for $3,000 and the Original Contract was for $19,995.00. There are adequate funds available in the Federal Appropriation for the project to cover the cost of this Change Order.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of Change Order #2 to the Contract with CTA Architects for an amount equal to $3,000.
