Item 4CCITY OF SOUTH LADE MEMORANDUM (March 29, 2011) To: Shana Yelverton, City Manager From: Robert H. Price, P.E., Director of Public Works Subject: Approve Change Order No. 5 with Legacy Contracting, LP in the amount of $21,720.00 for Fort Worth Meter Station Modification Project Action Requested: Approve Change Order No. 5 with Legacy Contracting, LP in the amount of $21,720.00 for Fort Worth Meter Station Modification Project. Background Information: In 1984, the Cities of Keller and Southlake contracted to build and share ownership and use of a water transmission main from the City of Fort Worth's North Beach pump station. Since that time, the contractual arrangement for water billing was that the City of Fort Worth billed Southlake for all the water passing through the FW -North Beach meter and Southlake would bill Keller for their share based on the Keller /Southlake meters and calculate Max Day /Hour charges based on the percent of use. Increased water demands by both Southlake and Keller warranted the building of a second 42 -inch water supply line from the City of Fort Worth Caylor Pump Station that was completed in December 2005. The plan by the three contracting cities has been that once the second water transmission line was placed in service, a new billing contract would be completed by the parties. Under the new contract, the Cities of Keller and Southlake will upgrade the meters at their respective Pearson Rd. pump stations and at the two Fort Worth pump stations to the same accuracy standards as normally used in the City of Fort Worth. Once completed, Fort Worth will begin using the Southlake and Keller meters for billing the two cities individually for their water use. In November of 2008, Legacy Contracting, LP began construction on the improvements required by the City of Fort Worth on the Southlake - Pearson, Keller- Pearson, North Beach, and Caylor Meter Stations. It was discovered after the project was under construction, that a draft 2006 set of plans were inadvertently placed in the bid documents instead of the final set of plans that were approved for construction by the City of Southlake and the City of Fort Worth in 2007. Freese and Nichols, Inc. has acknowledged that their firm prepared the initial bid documents with the 2006 set of plans included. Freese and Nichols, Inc and the Southlake and Keller City staff discussed and agreed upon an equitable contribution which will be divided between the two cities. The design engineer, Freese and Nichols, Inc., and Legacy Contracting, LP met to determine the level of effort required to construct the project according to the 2007 edition of the plans. The work required is work that would have been required if the 2007 edition of the plans had been included in the bid documents. During this time, Legacy Contracting, LP was unable to move forward with the work associated with the required changes to meet the 2007 edition of the plans. The contractor's schedule was delayed due to this oversight and incurred equipment rental costs and de- mobilization costs. In addition Legacy Contracting, LP experienced a loss in revenue due this oversight. City Council approved Change Order No. 1 on September 1, 2009 in the amount of $53,331.64 for revisions to the electrical sheets and Change Order No. 2 on November 3, 2009 in the amount of $60,369.00 for revisions to the civil engineering sheets. These change orders were a result of not including the correct set of plans in the bid documents. Change Order No. 3 in the amount of $32,287.10 and Change Order No. 4 in the amount of $2,163.31 were approved by the City Manager and included changes to the vault location at the North Beach meter station. The location was modified after exploratory digging resulted in the original planned location being too small for the required vault to house the double check valves. In addition, an extension ladder was required by the City of Fort Worth previously not shown on the construction plans. Change Order No. 5 in the amount of $21,720 is for delay caused by inclusion of the incorrect plan set. The contractor incurred additional costs for equipment rental, de- mobilization and mobilization costs and lost revenue during the delay period. Financial Considerations: On September 2, 2008 the City Council approved a bid amount of $776,867.00. The previously approved change orders increased the total contract amount to $925,018.05. Staff recommends that City Council approve Change Order No. 5 in the amount of $21,720.00 resulting in a total project cost of $946,738.05. Funds are available in the project budget. Southlake's portion of this change order is $5,243. The remaining portion of the change order is being paid for by Freese and Nichols, Inc and the City of Keller. Strategic Link: The meter station improvements links to the city's strategy map relative to the focus areas of Infrastructure and Performance Management and Service Delivery. The specific corporate objectives that are met by the construction of this water system infrastructure include: Providing High Quality Customer Service and Investing to provide and maintain high quality public assets. Citizen Input/ Board Review: None Legal Review: None Alternatives: The City Council may approve Change Order No. 5 or deny it.
