The request of staff for the City Council is to review and consider for approval the attached deductive change in the amount of ($6,267.00) and the final pay request in the amount not to exceed $179,063.00 submitted by SC Signature Construction Corporation for the 2020 Jasmin Park Seawall Improvements Project completion.  Total construction cost for the project is $341,133.00.

As City Council may recall, staff presented a Seawall Condition Assessment to City Council in June of 2016.  The Assessment reviewed the existing conditions of all seawalls owned and maintained by the City.  Included in the assessment were project rankings, cost repairs, current conditions, seawall remediation, and project phasing.  Sims Park and Cotee River Park seawalls were ranked number one and two in need of repair.  The Sims Park boat ramp, Grand Blvd. Park, and Jasmin Park where ranked three, four, and five.  For the first four rankings, construction repairs included wall joint separation, wall cracking horizontal and vertical, wall cap damage, sidewalk settlement, drainage pipe deterioration, soil voids, wall leaning, and damaged or no tie-back systems.  For the Jasmin Park seawall system it was determined by the engineer of record that the seawall’s existing condition was beyond repair and in need of replacement.  In addition to the existing wall’s replacement, ADA upgrades to the existing dock ramp have been installed, the existing concrete pads have been replaced, landscape added, and lighting improvements have been included.
