RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute Contract Change Order No.1 with Ghilotti Construction Company, Inc., effective October 27, 2009, in an amount not to exceed $135,000.00 to reflect actual base failure repair operations for the 2009 Vasco Road Overlay project, Byron area. (85% American Recovery Reinvestment Act and 15% Local Gas Tax Funds)

FISCAL IMPACT:

None. This project is funded by the American Recovery Reinvestment Act and Local Gas Tax Funds.
BACKGROUND:

The current contract for base failure repairs is for $285,000 based upon the engineer’s estimate. During construction operations, the quantity of repair was substantially less than anticipated. The reduced quantity substantially modified the conditions of the work performed on base failure repairs and is not reflective of the contractor’s contract bid. Therefore, the contractor is entitled to a contract adjustment for the change in work. Based upon general equipment production and crew rates, Ghilotti Construction has requested a change order for compensation for base failure repairs at an agreed lump sum of $135,000. Upon project completion, a balancing change order will be processed to eliminate the original base failure repair item ($285,000) which will be a net savings of approximately $150,000 to the project budget.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Without Board of Supervisor’s approval, the contractor will not be given a change order of the described work and will not receive due compensation.
