And The City Of Hollywood For Construction Of A Beach Maintenance Facility and Office Trailer, In The Amount Of $29,935.00.
Body
Staff Recommends: Approval of the Attached Resolution.
Explanation:
In 2016, the City Commission under Resolution No. R-2016-320 awarded Stonehenge Construction, Inc. a construction contract to construct a beach maintenance facility under the Hollywood Bridge at A1A.
During construction it was discovered that the only way to get Comcast connection to the trailer was to do a directional bore under A1A to reach a Comcast box. This cost came in at $11,270.00.
Later, Public Works staff purchased a “Geomat Wash Equipment Station” and wanted it installed at this site. The material and labor to install this equipment came to $18,665.00.
Prior to this Change Order the following Change Orders were approved:
• Change Order 1 - The City of Hollywood would not issue a Notice to proceed for several months because the CRA’s construction of a future garage had come into question. Once that was resolved the price of the metal ornamental fencing had risen $9,965.09
• Change Order 2 - The planned parking drainage system had to be shifted as a result of uncovered utilities not previously identified. This additional cost was $4,344.70.
• Change Order 3 - The metal ornamental fence had to be shifted and landscaping removed in order to avoid existing palm trees at sidewalk. The cost was $6,913.80.
• Change Order 4 - FPL would not allow us to connect into the nearest transformer box because it was at capacity. This forced us to connect to a transformer box on the other side of A1A next to an existing garage. This involved underground boring of conduit under A1A and street repairs. This cost came to $23,115.35.
• Change Order 5 - This is related to Change Order 2, the City had to pay for test borings to locate the unknown underground utilities. This cost was $580.75.
• Change Order 6 - Public Works requested that a black screen be added to the back side on the metal ornamental fencing in order to make the area less visible to the public. The cost was $2,742.75.
• Change Order 7 - This proposal was for additional landscape material but the Change Order was rejected.
The Director of Development Services and the Director of Public works reviewed Change Order No. 8 and recommend the approval of this Change Order to Stonehenge Construction, Inc. in the amount of $29,935.00. Funding is available in account number 34.5100.15514.519.006301.
