Discuss, consider and take appropriate action regarding Change Order No. 1 (A Greater Austin Development) in the amount of $16,166.09 for San Gabriel Ranch Road Bridge, a Road Bond project in Commissioner Pct. 2.
P: 439  Funding Source: Road and Bridge

This Change Order compensates the Contractor for the exploratory work to unclog an existing culvert pipe prior to construction and for the additional cost to double handle rock riprap material caused by the AT&T utility relocation. As requested, the Contractor excavated to expose an existing culvert pipe in order to unclog it and expedite drainage of the pond. The pipe was too deep and the obstruction too large to remove without risk of damaging adjacent utilities, therefore work was stopped before the pipe was cleared. The Contractor planned to excavate riprap for the project, haul and place in its final position. Due to the delay in relocation of the AT&T line, the rock had to be stockpiled at a separate location and then placed at a later date.
