Project Manager Pc: WCR 64' , WCR 23,and WCR 66 Project file M:\-Active Projects\Misc Projects\WCR 64 3-4 8 WCR 23\Design\Contracts\Change Order Letter KBN.doc ENGINEERS February 24, 2005 Mr. Keith Meyer, PE Engineering Division Manager Weld County Public Works 1111 "H" Street Greeley, CO 80631 Dear Keith: RE: CHANGE ORDER REQUEST TO ENGINEERING FEE CONTRACT KBN Project No. 03015-R You had requested in an earlier project team meeting that we prepare an extra proposal to our original engineering design contract based upon revisions to our scope of services. We wanted to provide you with this information sooner, however, we've been waiting for Colorado Boring to provide us with a bill that we just received today. Our original design contract was for$23,450. Of this amount, $2,400 was intended for a geotechnical investigation. This work was not subcontracted because the Public Works Department determined the typical roadway section to be used with our design. This reduces the design fee to $21,050. To date, we have billed the County$20,700.45. We have completed the design work as outlined in our June 23, 2004 proposal and the project was bid out February 15th. During the final design stage of this project,we were asked to provide additional and revised legal descriptions and exhibits(by King Surveyors), pothole existing underground utilities, revise our drawings to reflect a change in the lane widths, striping, etc., prepare 40 sets of design plans and specifications (along with addenda drawing revisions) and coordinate with Earth Engineering Consultants for the construction observation and testing services. A summary of these requested extras is shown below: Contract Project Cost Increase 1. R.O.W./easements (King) 1,600 $2,476 a. KBN coord. & exh. for Leon - $ 734 2. Potholes— Colo. Boring (6) - $ 660 3. Revise lane widths & striping - $ 892 4. Type County's specs into computer - $ 648 4. Print plans & specs (40 sets) - $1,458 5. Const. observation&testing(ECC) (agreement attached for review) - $5 000 TOTAL COUNTY REQUESTED EXTRAS $11,868 Ketterling, Butherus & Norton Engineers, LLC. 820 8th Street / Greeley,Colorado 80631 / tel 970-395-9880 / fax 970-395-9881 Mr. Keith Meyer, PE February 24, 2005 Page 2 The County will oversee construction observation during the construction of the roadway improvements. If we are requested to become involved,we assume we may invoice the Public Works Department at our Standard Hourly Rates. Finally, in the preparation of our proposal for design services, I had estimated a fee of $2,200 to design the Winder ditch relocation/siphon improvements adjacent to the new roadway alignment. I, unfortunately, was way off the mark. Due to the difficulties in determining how the existing ditch worked, numerous site visits to check existing structures, various alternative hydraulic analyses, two final designs (first option included only one siphon with a higher road profile and corresponding earthwork volume;the second option included two siphons with a lower road profile) we expended much more time and resources than I had planned. In total, we exceeded my design engineer manhour estimate by 267 hours. I would ask that the County consider reimbursing this error in my judgment at my cost of$35.80 per hour for my staff engineers. This would result in a fee increase request of$9,558.60. I normally would not consider asking my client for an increase in my contract fee and would certainly understand if you determine an increase is not warranted in this case. If you have any questions regarding this proposal letter,please give me a call. Sincerely, /( , Michael C. Ketterling, PE Hello
