Title
SUBMISSION AND ACKNOWLEDGING RECEIPT OF THE CITY MANAGER’S CHANGE ORDER REPORT AND DIRECTING THE FILING THEREOF.
Body
BACKGROUND: City Council, in its meeting of November, 8, 2011, adopted Resolution R-1112-55 delegating administrative authority to the City Manager or his designee, at his discretion, to approve change order requests that result in adjustments up to forty thousand dollars ($40,000) or 10% of any contract, whichever is less. The resolution also required that the administrative approvals of change orders be reported to the City Council with the City Manager’s Weekly Report at the next regularly scheduled Council meeting and then filed with the original contract in the permanent records of the City Clerk.
DISCUSSION: City Council, acting as the Norman Utilities Authority (NUA), approved Contract K-1819-125 with Central Contracting Services, Inc., in the amount of $2,845,591 for the Robinson Water Line Replacement Project, Phase II. Change Order No. One was approved by City Council/NUA on February 11, 2020, increasing the contract amount by $193,930 for a revised contract amount of $3,038,721 and adding 90 calendar days to the contract.
Change Order No. Two in the amount of $20,570 and increasing the contract time by thirty (30) calendar days was approved by the City Manager on May 22, 2020. This change order allows for the move of an existing water service from a 12-inch water line and temporarily connects the line to an adjacent 24-inch main to allow the proposed 30-inch water main to be installed in approximately the same location as existing 12-inch line; it removes and disposes of existing 12-inch water line blocking 30-inch water line installation; and repairs curb and gutter, sidewalk and driveway. The change order added 30 additional calendar days to the project. The revised contract amount is $3,039,291.
