BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:

BACKGROUND:
In 2016, the City established CIP Project MB160, Downtown Parking Deck Maintenance Program, as a multi-year capital project to ensure the Central Business District parking decks are maintained as a sustainable asset in Special Service Area (SSA) #24.
During 2017, as part of the scope of work outlined in MB160, the City’s architectural and engineering consultant, Farnsworth Group, performed a comprehensive evaluation of the public parking decks. The subsequent report indicated that the uppermost level of the Van Buren Parking Deck required repair and replacement of the deck joints and sealant to prevent water from leaking through to the lower decks and contributing to further deterioration.
Job Order Contracting (JOC) was selected to perform the work based on the need for multiple trade specialists and Farnsworth Group’s recommendation for the work. On October 26, 2017, the City Manager approved the original award of JOC Order # DPW-004-CY17A in the amount of $98,613.80.
DISCUSSION:
During the repair work, F. H. Paschen identified a concern that was not included in the original scope of work. This change order is requested to repair broken welds found on the shear connectors used to connect the pre-cast concrete slabs to the support beams.
FISCAL IMPACT:
CIP #: MB160
