ITEM:
Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding an unforeseen cost increase for previously approved Lift Station 300. (Eulogio Vera, Director of Public Works)
SUMMARY:
Staff seeks approval for a $19,432.06 cost increase associated with the previously-approved urgent rehab of the lift station by DPE Construction, Inc.
The cost increase for previously-completed work, on February 24, 2021, the Council approved $81,000 for urgent replacement of Lift Station 300 pipes by DPE Construction Inc. During DPE’s execution of the City-approved repairs, unforeseen site conditions were encountered that significantly increased the number of hours/days that DPE needed to complete the repairs and that also required DPE to keep in place, and operate, a temporary sewage bypass line for several days longer than planned. The $19,432.06 proposal/claim that DPE has submitted for the additional work will increase the final cost of the contract from $81,000 to $100,432.06.
