Rice, City Manager, be and is hereby authorized and directed to execute Change Order No. 1, a copy of which is attached hereto and made a part hereof by reference. s/ George VanDeVoorde George VanDeVoorde, Mayor Presented: August 26, 1992 Adopted: August 26, 1992 Omnibus Vote: Yeas 6 Nays 0 Recorded: Attest: s/ Dolonna Mecum Dolonna Mecum, City Clerk ELGIN, ILLINOIS NORTHWEST AREA WATER TRANSMISSION LINE, PHASE 2 CHANGE ORDER #1 SCOPE: This Change Order #1 covers additional changes in the scope of work on the Northwest Area Water Transmission Line that were not reasonably foreseeable at the time the contract was signed and are in the best interests of the City. Items covered in this change order are for additional material and additional work provided by Gluth Bros . Construction, Inc. This contract for water main construction is with Gluth Bros . Construction, Inc. , of Woodstock, Illinois . REASONS FOR CHANGE: 1 . A portion of the scope of work for this project included the installation of a 24-inch water main from the point of new Todd Farm Drive intersecting with Big Timber Road west to the booster pump station at Lyle Avenue. In connecting this 24-inch main to the existing piping at the booster station, it was noted that the pipe needing to be connected to was 12 inch, rather than 16 inch as previously shown on the plans . This necessitated installing 12-inch tapping sleeve and valve rather than the planned 16-inch. This work then also involved the installation of 12-inch water main pipe rather than the planned 16-inch. Additionally, as this location is already full of buried utilities, there was not room enough for the installation of a six-foot valve vault; therefore, a five-foot valve vault was installed. This change order also includes cost for the additional labor and extra effort required because of the physical constraints of the location. 2 . In the final adjusted quantities as installed, there were several deducts due to as found conditions during installation. The most notable of these was the decision not to do pavement replacement or restoration as the Big Timber sewer and road widening project immediately followed the installation of this water main. Therefore a significant savings of approximately $15,000 was saved on this project. SUMMARY OF CHANGES IN CONTRACT AMOUNT: The amount of the contract will be revised as follows : TOTAL VALUE OF CONTRACT ITEMS INSTALLED $254, 154 . 00 TOTAL EXTRAS $ 19, 053 . 66 TOTAL VALUE OF CONTRACT $273,207 . 66 • ELGIN, ILLINOIS NORTHWEST AREA WATER TRANSMISSION LINE, PHASE 2 CHANGE ORDER #1 Page 2 The original contract with Gluth Bros .
