Included with the County's project was City Project 95-06 which provided minor water and sanitary sewer work. The Cooperative Agreement provided that the County was responsible for all contract administration and construction observation and that adjustments to the contract such as increased quantities, supplemental agreements, change orders, or work orders, if made would be paid together with the final payment. CURRENT CIRCUMSTANCES The county has finalized the contract and all the adiministrative requirements and has submitted a final bill requesting final payment. ISSUES During the course of construction the County approved four supplemental agreements and one work order. Of these, City participation was involved in three supplemental agreements and the work order. Supplemental Aggreement #1 provided reViSions to the traffic signal system at Fish Point Road and CSAH 44 to provide for 162~iIDCreek Ave. S.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372-1714 / Ph. (612) 447-4230 / Fax (612) 447-4245 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER pedestrian actuated controls. The City's cost for this work totaled $1,063.10. Supplemental Agreement #2 addressed lowering existing watermain along CSAH 44 when it was discovered to b~ too shallow for the reconstructed roadway. The City's cost for this work totaled $11,934.67. Supplemental Agreement #3 addressed poor subgrade within the road right of way and was no cost to the City. Supplemental Agreement #4 addressed storm water retention issues that came about due to the construction of a residence near a stormwater pond designed for the project. The home was constructed between the time the project was designed and ultimately constructed. The development was designed to accomodate a lookout basement on the site but a walkout was constructed. The nearby stormwater retention pond had to be enlarged to accomodate the design storm without threatening the walkout basement. The City's share of this work totaled $17,452.75. The work order directed the Contractor to provide a "jacked" utility crossing underneath the roadway. This utility crossing was a part of the original contract but was mistakenly left out by the contractor during construction. Although the County was responsible for all contract administration and construction observation, they required the City to participate in one-third of the increased cost for "jacking" the crossing. Total cost of this work was $17,803.56, the city's share is $5,934.52. Total cost to the City for supplemental agreements and work order is $36,385.04. Included in the Cooperative Agreement is 8% Preliminary Engineering, 5% Construction Engineering for the roadway improvements, and 5% Construction Engineering for the city utility improvements. The Cooperative Agreement estimated the City's share of the cost at $500,000, but the final cost would be based on final contract quantities. Based on the bids, the contract was awarded with the City of Prior Lake's share at $496,994.07. On November 20, 1995, Council approved payment of 90% of the contract amount, $447,294.66, in accordance with the Cooperative Agreement. CSAH44FP.DOC FISCAL IMPACT: AL TERNA TIVES: RECOMMENDED MOTION: REVIEWED BY: CSAH44FP.DOC Based on the final contract quantities, supplemental agreements, and the work order, the City's share is $529,820.94, a difference of $32,826.87. The final payment amount is determined as follows: $529,820.94 (final contract amount) minus $447,294.66 (previous payment) equals $82,526.28. Approval of the final payment authorizes payment from the construction fund as contemplated when the project was approved. The final contract amount of $529,820.94 is 6.6% more than the original contract amount due to the supplemental agreements and work order. The alternatives are as follows: 1. Approval of final payment to Scott County in the amount of $82,526.28 for the cooperative agreement for construction of City Project 95-06, CSAH 44 and associated improvements 2. Table this item for a specific reason. A motion and second approving final payment to approve final payment to Scott County in the amount of $82,526.28 for the cooperative agreement for construction of City Project 95-06, CSAH 44 and associated improvements
