THREE TO CONTRACT K-1415-91: BY AND BETWEEN THE NORMAN UTILITIES AUTHORITY AND URBAN CONTRACTORS, L.L.C., INCREASING THE CONTRACT AMOUNT BY $9,481.65 FOR A REVISED CONTRACT PRICE OF $3,154,905.65 FOR THE SEWER MAINTENANCE PROJECT FYE 2013; FINAL ACCEPTANCE OF THE PROJECT, AND BUDGET APPROPRIATION FROM THE SEWER MAINTENANCE FUND.
Body
BACKGROUND: In 2001, the citizens of Norman approved a five dollar per month sewer maintenance fee to provide for the systematic replacement of aged and deteriorated sewer lines throughout our wastewater collection system. On March 24, 2015, the Norman Utilities Authority (NUA) approved Contract K-1415-91 with Urban Contractors, LLC (Urban) for Sewer Maintenance Project FYE 2013 (SMP13) in the amount of $2,873,020. The Notice to Proceed was issued and construction began April 6, 2015.
On August 25, 2015, the NUA approved Change Order No. 1 (CO1) increasing the contract amount by $105,454 to $2,978,474. CO1 provided for supplementary pipe-bursting near Rock Creek Road and Porter Avenue, and an emergency sewer main repair on Walnut Road.
On November 10, 2015, the NUA approved Change Order No. 2 (CO2) increasing the contract amount by $166,950 to $3,145,424. CO2 provided for supplementary pipe-bursting requested by the Line Maintenance Division along Huron Street.
DISCUSSION: All work was complete December 15, 2015, and the contract is now satisfied. Proposed Final Change Order Number 3 (CO3) includes two modifications: 1) purchase remaining pipe material from the contractor and 2) reconciliation of bid quantities to final quantities.
The purchase of the remaining pipe material from the current project is an increase of $16,320.65. It is beneficial to the NUA, since material prices continually increase. Approximately 827 feet of 8-inch, 10-inch, 12-inch and 18-inch pipe will be purchased, stored and used on our next rehabilitation project, which will bid soon.
