This will require the installation of a steel casing, utilizing boring techniques, under the canal for the needed conduit system. However, construction within the WID right-of-way must be done during time periods when the canal is drained. Since the canal is scheduled to be filled by mid March and not drained again before late fall the project must be completed prior to March leaving insufficient time for the formal bid process for this project (installation of the casing); and WHEREAS, the Contractor for the Utility Substructures, Cherokee Lane and Sunwest Area, project has agreed to perform the above work as an addendum to the contract at a price of $18,750.00 and otherwise under the same terms and conditions; and WHEREAS, deferring the project to next fall/winter will have an adverse impact on the relocation and the feeder installation. The feeder is required for the peak load season (summer) 2002; and WHEREAS, staff recommends approval of the addendum to the Utility Substructures, Cherokee Lane and Sunwest Area contract. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council hereby approves an addendum to the contract for the Utility Substructures, Cherokee Lane and Sunwest Area in the amount of $18,750.00; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that funds be appropriated from the Business Unit #161652, Distribution System Improvement, for the budgeted feeder from Henning Substation to Cochran Road.
