BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On August 15, 2018, Council awarded the contract for 2018 Pavement Resurfacing Project to American Paving Systems, Inc., of Modesto, in the amount of $1,150,963. Contract change orders are generally used to formalize changes in construction and maintenance contracts to add to or subtract from the scope of work. For the past 15 years it has been the City's practice for Staff to authorize contract change orders as long as the total contract amount stays within the budgeted appropriation, originally approved by Council. The City's change order policy (and other financial policies) is currently under review. During the review period (anticipated to take several months), Staff is requesting project specific Council action authorizing the City Manager to execute change orders on construction and maintenance contracts. This project is not yet complete. The not -to -exceed change order amount of $168,000 is an estimate at this time. In accordance with current practice, the reason and the change order amount will be provided to Council at project acceptance. Staff recommends ratifying expenses and authorizing City Manager to execute change orders to 2018 Pavement Resurfacing Project, in an amount not -to -exceed $168,000. FISCAL IMPACT: FUNDING AVAILABLE: CES/CES/tdb No additional expenditures are being considered beyond the original appropriation. There is no fiscal impact. Project was approved in either current or prior year budget and funding was determined to be available at project award.
