RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution Approving Contract Change Order Nos. 3 and 4 with Cushman Contracting

of Surface Water Discharge, CIP WW 20- 17
and Approving Budget Amendment
SUMMARY:

On September 13, 2021, City Council awarded a construction contract to Cushman Contracting Corporation ( Cushman) for the construction of the Consolidated Treatment Facility ( CTF) Dechlorination Facility ( Project) portion of Surface Water Discharge, CIP WW 20- 17. At the time of contract execution, the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ( NPDES) permit for CIP WW 20- 17 had not been granted final approval.

Subsequent to contract' s execution, the NPDES permit was approved. Consequently, requiring installing additional discharge analyzers than originally proposed in the original bid documents. To address these changes, Cushman submitted a cost for Contract Change Order ( CCO) No. 3 for $ 313, 916. 86 for the purchase and installation of the additional analyzers. Cushman also submitted a cost for CCO No. 4 in the amount of $ 124, 118 as a reconciling change order to settle credits and expenses due to the adjustments in the original bid quantities.

Staff requests Council approve CCO No. 3 for $ 313, 916. 86 and CCO No. 4 for 124, 118 with Cushman. Sufficient funds were not allocated in FY 22/ 23 for CCO Nos. 3 and 4. Therefore, staff also requests Council approve a budget amendment transferring $ 150, 000 from the Wastewater Connection Fee Fund ( 6030) to the CIP Project Fund ( 6090) to fund the additional work represented by CCO Nos. 3 and 4.

BACKGROUND:

On September 13, 2021, City Council awarded a construction contract to Cushman for $ 3, 620, 000, plus a 10% construction contingency of $ 362, 200 for a total Project construction budget of $ 3, 982, 000. At the time of contract execution, the City' s NPDES permit for Surface Water Discharge, CIP WW 20- 17 had not been issued.

CITY MANAGER' S REPORT PAGE 2
APRIL 10, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
APPROVE CCO NOS. 3 AND 4 WITH CUSHMAN FOR THE CTF
DECHLORINATION FACILITY OF SURFACE WATER DISCHARGE, CIP WW 20- 17 AND APPROVE BUDGET AMENDMENT
The NPDES permit became effective on February 17, 2022, and required the installation of thirteen ( 13) additional discharge analyzers and associated appurtenances than initially anticipated in the original bid quantities; Cushman presented the City with a cost of $ 313, 916. 86 ( CCO No. 3), to cover the purchase and installation of these extra analyzers. Upon assessment, staff determined that the costs were reasonable and in line with unit costs submitted during the bidding process. Cushman has also submitted a cost for CCO No. 4 in the amount of$ 124, 118 as a reconciling change order to settle credits and expenses due to the adjustments in the original bid quantities.

CCO Nos. 1 and 2 previously approved for this contract total $ 327, 291. 84. This cost funded necessary revisions to piping and structural work due to the broader requirements of the NPDES permit as issued.

Staff requests City Council approve CCO Nos. 3 and 4 with Cushman for the Project portion of Surface Water Discharge, CIP WW 20- 17 and budget amendment.

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:

The additional work listed in proposed CCO No. 3 is necessary for the City to comply with the NPDES permit. Proposed CCO No. 4 is necessary to ensure the correct payment to Cushman for cost increases and decreases due to changed quantities of various bid items in the original contract.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The approved contract with Cushman is for $ 3, 620, 000, with a 10% construction contingency in the amount of $ 362, 000, for a total Project budget of $ 3, 982, 000.

The cost of CCO No. 3 is $ 313, 916. 86, and the cost of CCO No. 4 is $ 124, 118.

Sufficient funds for CCO Nos. 3 and 4 were not allocated to the Project in the FY 2022- 2023 budget; therefore, Staff requests City Council approve a budget amendment transferring $150, 000 from the Wastewater Connection Fee Fund ( 6030) to the CIP Project fund ( 6090) as detailed below.
