BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
N/A
BACKGROUND:
On August 20, 2019, City Council awarded Contract 19-213 to Berglund Construction Company to rehabilitate the concrete circle driveway, sidewalk and curb on the upper level of the Municipal Center deck. The contract was awarded for $375,000 with a completion date of November 1, 2019.
DISCUSSION:
Due to unforeseen circumstances in the weather during the months of October and November 2019, placing concrete was delayed. Once concrete is placed, the curing time is 28 days before any caulking or sealants can be applied. Staff recommended, due to the temperatures in late December and early January, to wait until spring to have Berglund Construction Company finish the caulking and sealants. The contractor concurred with the request.
A change order is requested to extend the contract completion date by 166 days to allow Berglund Construction Company to complete the work when weather conditions become more favorable for caulk and sealants. If approved, the revised completion date will be April 15, 2020. No additional funds are needed to complete the outstanding work.
FISCAL IMPACT:
CIP #: MB136
The Municipal Center upgrades are expensed to the building improvements account listed below. A total of $320,000 was budgeted for MB136 in 2019. This change order is only for a time extension and will have no additional impact on the budget.
