Fairway Estates Stage 3 Drainage and Water Main Improvements GMP - Change Order #1
History
The Fairway Stage 3 Drainage and Water Main Improvement was approved by the Board in December, 2018 and awarded to Burke, LLC as a design-build project in the amount of $2,714,550.00. Construction began in February, 2019 and is nearing completion. Restoration is also currently underway.
Similar to previous stages, the roadway asphalt restoration in Stage 3 was proposed as a temporary two inch (2”) patch over the utility trenches to provide a suitable driving and snow plowing surface. The subsequent road improvement program would then reconstruct the insufficient full depth of asphalt across the entire street. During Stage 3 the existing asphalt depth was found to be greater than the previous stages. Full depth reconstruction is not recommended. Financially a mill and overlay will be sufficient for road program improvements throughout Stage 3. However, with the installation of a proposed two inch (2”) patch, the asphalt material as well as several inches of stone would have to be removed and hauled away for disposal. To minimize wasted costs related to the road improvement program and provide a better stabilized base, staff requested a proposal from Burke, LLC for a five inch (5”) thick patch over the trenches. Burke, LLC provided the attached proposed change order in the amount of $114,048.00. Staff reviewed the proposal and determined it to be very reasonable with the new price being $50.00 per ton less. The change order exceeds the original board approved amount for the project by $14,048.00. However, it will provide a cost savings to the road program. The cost for the asphalt patch would be split equally between the currently available project Owner’s Allowance and the funds allocated for the road improvement program.
