Agenda Item

Discuss, consider, and take appropriate action regarding Change Order No. 18 in the amount of $18,623.43 for Project 22IFB139 FM3349 at US79 (James Construction Group) P: 332 Funding Source: Road Bond.

Background

This Change Order compensates the Contractor for additional cost associated with changes to the open cut and jack and bore sections of the Jonah 36-inch steel encased water line along Line A, located north and south of US 79. During construction, a newly installed gas line along the northside of US 79 was found to be in conflict with the proposed water line. To clear the conflict, the jacked and bore section of the water line under US 79 was lowered by 5 feet. This change created the need for additional shoring and material handling, and the installation of fittings to return the water line up to its original elevation before continuing with the open trench section. To mitigate the cost, Jonah SUD provided revised plan sheets reducing the length of the jacked and bore section and increasing the length of the open cut section. The unused steel casing and spacers were delivered to Jonah SUD for future use. Multiple items will be added by this Change Order. Please see attached Change Order.

This Change Order results in a net increase of $18,623.43 to the Contract amount, for an adjusted Contract total of $84,094,103.07. The original Contract amount was $81,941,038.13.  As a result of this and all Change Orders to-date, $2,153,064.94 has been added to the Contract, resulting in an 2.63% net increase in the Contract cost.  No additional days will be added to or deducted from the Contract as a result of this Change Order.
