BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
N/A
BACKGROUND:
On May 7, 2019, City Council awarded Contract 19-059 to Front Range Environmental to rehabilitate thirty-five (35) existing sanitary sewer manholes by the application of structural lining products to all interior surfaces, including channel, bench, barrel, cone and chimney sections. The completion date of the contract was November 1, 2019.
DISCUSSION:
Due to unforeseen field conditions, including heavy rains at the start of the project and more recently cold temperatures, the work on this project was delayed. The cold weather prevents the equipment used to apply the structural lining product from working properly. The cold temperatures also affect the curing of the lining product.
This change order is requested to extend the contract completion date by 244 days to allow the contractor to complete the work when the weather conditions become more favorable for the equipment to function properly. If approved, the revised completion date will be May 31, 2020. No additional funds are required to complete the outstanding work.
FISCAL IMPACT:
CIP #: WW006
Manhole rehabilitations are expensed to the infrastructure account listed below as part of the capital improvement program. A total of $ $3,871,000 is budgeted for sanitary sewer system rehabilitation in 2019. The requested change order will require no additional funds.
