BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
N/A
BACKGROUND:
On October 1, 2019, City Council awarded Contract 19-270 to RoMAAS Inc. to complete repairs at the 4th Avenue train station. The project included the replacement of the doors on the north and south sides of the station as well as the replacement of the approaches and adjacent sidewalk. Award of the contract was for $159,900.
DISCUSSION:
Due to unforeseen delays in door production by the manufacturer, the new door and vestibule portion of the project was delayed. Staff did not want to change to a less energy efficient door for the project and decided to wait until the correct door production run was complete.
A change order is requested to extend the contract completion date by 80 days to allow the contractor to receive the door, fabricate all materials and bring the ready-to-install product on site.
If approved, the revised completion date will be March 2, 2020. No additional funds are required to complete the outstanding work.
FISCAL IMPACT:
CIP #: MB180, MB204
Train station improvements are expensed to the building improvement account listed below. A total of $150,000 was budgeted for MB204 and $65,000 was budgeted for MB180 in 2019. The requested change order will not increase the total award and will have no impact on the budget.
