| TO: | City of New Port Richey City Council | | FROM: | Robert M Rivera, Public Works Director | | DATE: | 3/1/2016 | | RE: | 14/15 Roadway Damage Reconstruction Project (Emergency Repairs) - Close Out |
REQUEST:
The request of staff for City Council is to review and consider for approval the Final Deductive Change Order in the amount of forty-four thousand two hundred thirty-one dollars and forty-one cents ($44,231.41) and the Final Pay Request in the amount of one hundred eighteen thousand two hundred thirty-two dollars and fifty-two cents $118,232.52 from Florida Safety Contractors Inc. for the completion of the 2014/2015 Roadway Damage Reconstruction Project - Emergency Repairs. The total cost of the project was six hundred twenty-one thousand eight hundred sixty-five dollars and thirty-nine cents $621,865.39.
DISCUSSION:
As Council may recall, a low pressure weather event dropped 22.07" of rain in an 11 day period from July 16, 2015 to August 3, 2015. During this period over 12,000 sandbags were distributed to residents, the City's wastewater treatment plant treated an average of 12.160 mgd of effluent, all of the City's lift stations operated at high level alarm mode, pumping operations were conducted in four neighborhoods, and 36 roads were damaged in various degrees ranging from major damage, minor damage, and minimal damage. Subsequent to staff's assessment it was determined 15 of the roads required removal of the existing asphalt curb to curb, reworking/replacement and compaction of base and finally the installation 1.5" S-3 asphalt concrete. Seven of the roads required areas to be saw cut, the existing asphalt to be removed, base work, and the installation of 1.5" S-3 asphalt concrete. Finally, 14 of the roads required hot poured asphalt crack sealant application.
The deductive change order was the result of lower road material quantities used during construction.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the final deductive change order and final pay request are recommended.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT:
Funding is identified as Local Option Gas Tax dollars account #701-0701-541-63-43.
