Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution ratifying expenses and authorizing City Manager to
execute change orders to Wastewater Main Rehabilitation Program,
Project No. 7, in an amount not -to -exceed $450,000.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On April 18, 2018, Council awarded the contract for Wastewater
Main Rehabilitation Program, Project No. 7 to Express Sewer &
Drain, Inc., of Rancho Cordova, in the amount of $1,885,814.
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 $450,000 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
Wastewater Main Rehabilitation Program, Project No. 7, in an amount not -to -exceed $450,000.
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.
