Public Works has been extremely disappointed with the project's design engineer. Besides nickel and diming the county, we have discovered their on -site piping design was based on as -built drawings without doing any on -site field verification. As a result, we have encountered significant underground piping inconsistencies with the design. The costs we are having to pay for these types of errors and omissions is more than $13,400. In addition, we already had to modify the scope of work to include design in contract amendment #1. DOLA is aware of our budgetary issues on this project and to assist us they are offering $3,800 savings from another project to be allocated to this project. In addition, this project has a very short construction schedule, which has been predominately over the winter, and we've experienced many freezing weather delays. Therefore, this contract amendment also includes a deadline extension request from March 31, 2017 to September 30, 2017. Staff feels confident this project will be completed well in advance of the September 30th deadline. The following table reflects the budget changes identified in the attached contract amendment. Current Project Budget: Requ Budget Line Items Total Cost Grant Funds Other Funds Other Fund Source Architectural/Engineering Services $88,200 $88,200 $0 No match Building or Facility Construction $250,400 $250,400 $0 No match Construction/Improvements of Public Roadways $309,900 $309,900 $0 No match Total $648,500 $648,500 $0 Budget Line Items Total Cost Grant Funds Other Funds Other Fund Source Architectural/Engineering Services $88,200 $88,200 $0 No match Building or Facility Construction $250,400 $250,400 $0 No match Construction/Improvements of Public Roadways $313,700 $313,700 $0 No match Total $652,300 $652,300 SO Staff recommends authorization of the contract amendment.
