SUBMISSION AND ACKNOWLEDGING RECEIPT OF THE CITY MANAGER'S CHANGE ORDER REPORT AND DIRECTING THE FILING THEREOF.
Body
INFORMATION: City Council, in its meeting of November, 8, 2011, adopted Resolution No. 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 and at the next regularly scheduled Council meeting and then filed with the original contract in the permanent records of the City Clerk. City Council approved Contract No. K-1213-202 on June 11, 2013, with Fredgren Quality Works, LC, in the amount of $103,944 for the Rotary Park Pavilion Project. During the May 2012 Tornado event, a large tree was uprooted and blown down in Rotary Park and the tree was removed during the debris removal process. When construction began, the contractor had to remove some very large roots in order to dig the foundation of the pavilion. The decorative stone to be used on the project was changed to provide a better match to the existing stone in the park area. A sidewalk that was to be included on the west side of the pavilion was eliminated to keep foot traffic from cutting through the Jackson Elementary School Playground. These expenses and deductions were submitted in Change Order No. One to Contract No. K-1213-202 which increases the contract amount by $9,434.24 for a revised contract amount of $113,378.24. The Change Order has been approved by the City Manager.
