Title
Consider a resolution approving change order #2 to the construction contract with Ragle, Inc. for the Wall Price Keller Road Reconstruction Project for the Public Works Department.
Action Requested:
Consider a resolution approving change order #2 to the construction contract with Ragle, Inc. for the Wall Price Keller Road Reconstruction Project for the Public Works Department in the amount of $108,407.33
Background:
On June 6, 2018, City Council approved the construction contract with Ragle, Inc. for the Wall Price Keller Road Reconstruction Project. During construction, significant rain and an unforeseen conflict with an underground Frontier Communications facility delayed the project four and a half months resulting in cost overruns. The proposed change order will add those costs to the construction contract.
Two months of the delay has been attributed to the conflict with the Frontier Communications facility. Staff has contacted Frontier representatives about reimbursing the city for the costs associated with that delay. As of now a resolution has not been reached.
Financial Impact:
Funding is available in the FY 2018-19 Street Improvement Fund budget.

Legal Review:
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the proposed resolution.
Alternatives:
