HomeMy WebLinkAbout4F - Maintenance Change Order STAFF AGENDA REPORT SUBJECT: 4F PAUL HOKENESS, PARKS AND RECREATION DIRECTOR CONSIDER AUTHORIZATION OF CHANGE ORDER #3 FOR MAINTENANCE CENTER OCTOBER 7,1997 AGENDA #: PREPARED BY: DATE: BACKGROUND: During the final phases of construction of the maintenance center a number of revisions were made to the contract. Change order # 3 should be the final change order for the project. The facility is completed and parks and public works crews are now operating out of this facility. DISCUSSION: The attached letter from Oertel Architects describes in detail the change order items and costs associated with said items. The largest item was to eliminate the landscaping from the contractor's portion of the contract, $14,924.00 ( delete). The landscaper was unable to complete the project in the proper timeframe and it was felt that city crews could meet the deadlines and plant high quality materials at wholesale costs. (see attached update memo). The next significant dollar amount was soil corrections at $3,710.00(add) and an additional depth of bituminous that was required in the poor soil area, $2,200.00(add). The council was made aware of the poor soil conditions at the April 15th and May 20th meetings and had approved an additional 1,300 cubic yards of material if needed. As it turns out we used $3,710.00(add) of imported material which was supplemented with $2,200.00(add) of additional blacktop. The final amount of significance is rooftop unit screening, $2,000.00(delete). When it is determined how much screening is necessary we will do this as a separate project as was done at the fire station. ALTERNATIVES: Change order # 3 will result in a credit of $7,226.00 to the project. In total the project change orders have resulted in a net reduction in the building contract amount. I will provide the City Council with a final building project budget report in the future. The Council has the following alternatives: FISCAL IMPACTS: 1. Approve Change Order #3. 2. Table this Agenda item for a specific reason. 16200 ~~~!?f(Ave. S.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372-1714 / Ph. (612) 447-4230 / Fax (612) 447-4245 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER . I ,.... . 3. Deny this Agenda item for a specific reason. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Alternative No.1. ACTION REQUIRED; Motion and second to approve Change Order number 3. Approved by: Attachment AGREPCO.OOT - 1 MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Frank Boyles Paul Hokeness August 2, 1996 Landscaping at Maintenance Center Rochon has not been able to mobilize their landscaping contractor and I have become very frustrated trying to fight this battle. It is said that if you want things done right, do them yourself. At this point I believe it would be best if we take a credit from Rochon for the landscaping and do the work ourselves. We still have a majority of our seasonal employees on staff, and since some of our summer activities have slowed down we have the personnel to tackle this project. It will mean about two days of laying sod and I will put Merle in charge of planting the shrubs and flowers. We have a lot of shrubs in stock and I know that Merle will love taking on this project. I typically wouldn't take on a project of this magnitude but the timing is perfect and in all honesty I believe we will do a better job than the landscape company. Attached is a letter from Jeff Oertel to Rochon indicating our intentions. 16200 ~~~~.Hs.E.. Prior Lake. Minnesota 55372-1714 / Ph.

OERTEL ARCHITECTS 1422 WEST LAKE STREET / RAINBOW BUILDING / SUITE 312 MINNEAPOLIS, MN 55408 TEL: 612/825-6613 FAX: 612/824-7884 EMAIL: LLPB39A@PRODIGY.COM September 8, 1996 Mr. Paul Hokeness City of Prior Lake 16200 Eagle Creek Avenue, SE Prior Lake, MN 55441 RE: Prior Lake Maintenance Center BRWEA #2908.Z00 / OA 196-01 Dear Paul, Per your request, I have outlined the final, remaining modifications to the contract. The contractor was advised to summarize all remaining adds and deducts -to the work, and the attached letter from Rochon, dated August 28, 1996, is the contractor's response. Prior to this final letter, I reviewed a previous list, and advised the contractor that a few items would not be acceptable. Thus, this list is, in my opinion, an acceptable list of adds and deducts. Prior to the summary of items, I would like to point out that, . except for the field conditions and soil problems on site, there were a relatively small number of adds to the contract. As you know, for a variety of reasons, the final contract sum was less than the original contract. The final requested and required changes to the work are briefly summarized as follows: 1) Soil correction: During the middle of the construction, as earthwork progressed, soil replacement continued to be a problem. ci ty council approved the added costs for 1,000 yards of imported soil, which was included in change Order #2. The city was also advised that between 1,000 and 1,300 yards of additional imported material may be necessary to complete the work, depending on the conditions. Ultimately, only an additional 371 yards of imported fill was required, although some additional bituminous paving was necessary in lieu of the soil correction. Also note that we negotiated the cost per yard from the $11.00/yard in the contract to $10.00/yard. In all, this was a very pleasant surprise, considering the possibilities. Total add $3,710.00. 1 2) Added asphalt paving: This was added at the direction of the soils engineer to help stabilize the paving, caused by the less than ideal site conditions (i. e. ground water, poor soils, poor compaction, etc.). Total add $2,200.00.. 3) Delete landscaping: This credit was authorized as the city determined that it was more beneficial to perform the work with park crews and receive the credit from the contractor. Total credit: $14,924.00. 4) Delete floor mats: This was credited back to the city as it was determined that it was more beneficial to purchase mats and receive the credit from the contractor. Total credit: $989.00. 5) Additional testing: Because of the poor soil conditions, additional testing was required above and beyond the contract allotment. Total add: $812.00. 6) Mechanical storm piping changes: this is for the internal storm water overflow piping, and the pair of spillways onto grade. The original roof design was changed from an underground system to a direct spill of the overflow onto grade. Total add: $792.00. 7) Added window: The precast wall panels were shipped to the site with one additional window opening in the shop area, with no glass called out at this location. Rather than changing the panel, we decided to add a window opening to provide some natural light into the shop. Total add $495.00. 8) Added' sprinkler head: After the approved fire suppression drawings and construction, the fire marshall advised that a sprinkler head was required in the unheated, exterior trash . room. Total add: $854.00. 9) Added fire stopping at . corridor wall: The code official advised that the ceiling deck detail required additional fire stopping. The work was performed several times and was carried out beyond that specified or required by the 2 architect. Total add: $572.00. 10) Added hardware items: This includes a number of small hardware items that were added to doors and frames at various locations around the building. These changes improved the door functions in some cases, and were required to correct discrepancies in other cases. Total add: $687.00. 11) Added patio: Per the direction from the city, a patio slab.was added to the front of the building, upon which picnic table could be placed. Total add: $400.00. 12) Added galvanized steel angle: In the field, it was determined that an additional steel angle was necessary to adequately carry the load of a parapet wall. Total add: $165.00. 13) Credit for roof screening: The contractor was advised not to perform the roof screening work since the city could provide this work at a lesser cost. Total credit: $2,000.00 Please review and advise on your direction at this point. The contractor has prepared a change order for the total amount, if acceptable, and included the final credit on their pay request. Sincerely, ess Architects ertel, AI , ccs Project Manager 3 T
