Discuss, consider, and take appropriate action regarding Change Order No. 1 in the amount of ($2,878.00) for Project 22IFB96 CR 404 Hutto Water Line HDPE Pipe (Austin Underground, Inc.) P: 390 Funding Source: Road Bond.

This Change Order provides the final balancing for the overrun and underrun of Contract quantities on the project as a result of addressing field conditions not accounted for in the original plans. This Change Order also created a new item needed to reimburse the Contractor for an additional maintenance bond required to comply with the City of Hutto requirements. The City requires 100% Maintenance Bond for a two-year period where Williamson County only requires 20%. This Change Order adds one hundred five days (105) to the Contract to administratively match the date of the Contractor’s request for Substantial Completion. The HDPE pipe was delivered per the Contract requirements but the letter requesting Substantial Completion was submitted late.

A new pay item will be added by this Change Order. Please see attached Change Order.

This Change Order results in a net decrease of $2,878.00 to the Contract amount, for an adjusted Contract total of $1,859,321.25 The original Contract amount was $1,862,199.25. As a result of this and all Change Orders to-date, $2,878.00 has been deducted from the Contract, resulting in an 0.15% net decrease in the overall Contract cost. As a result of this Change Order, (105) days will be added to the contract.
