Subject: Anser Advisory Additional Budget Request No. 02R1 Construction Management Services for the Sykes Ranch Park Native Plant and Walkway Improvement Project 23-465, CIP No. 22010
Dear Mr. Crawford,
This letter is to inform you that the approved Construction Management Services budget for construction of the Sykes Ranch Park Improvement Project has been exhausted. Our original budget was based on the 45 working day construction duration specified in the bid documents , and confirmed in the Notice to Proceed as January 16, 2024, to March 21, 2024. Due to rain delays and impacts associated with a much wetter than average winter season, it became necessary to extend the project’s construction duration an additional 16 working days to April 15, 2024, to account for these extenuating circumstances. Additionally, as you may recall the project Closeout Phase required considerably more time and effort to accomplish due to the contractor’s inability to provide the turnover deliverables in a timely manner . We also brought in another contractor at the end of the project to provide aesthetic and safety improvements to the existing structure, which added additional scope and time. Despite our team’s best efforts to mitigate and/or absorb the construction management, project coordination , labor comp liance management, and on-site observation costs required to address these issues we have exceeded our budget.
Based on these circumstances I am requesting an additional $14,753 be added to our budget to cover the Construction Management Services for the additional duration that was needed to complete the work, and close out the project.
Thank you for the opportunity to continue to provide Construction Management Services to the City of Murrieta Community Services Department. Please contact me by phone at (805) 459-7679 and/or email at [email protected] should you have questions or need additional information.
Respectfully,
