COMMISSION MEETING DATE: 4/18/2017 | REQUESTED ACTION BY COMMISSION: PROPOSED RESOLUTION NO. R17-041 - Authorize Change Order #1 to McTeague Construction in the amount of $30,100 for the purpose of correcting unknown conditions during Hester Center Lobby Renovations, revising the estimated project costs from $53,150 to $83,230. | EXPLANATION OF REQUEST: On January 3, 2017 the Commission approve Resolution No. 17-001 authorizing the City Manager to sign a contract with McTeague Construction for renovations at Ezell Hester Center Lobby for the amount of $53,130 (includes $4,830 for contingency).
During the week of March 27, 2017, the renovations began at Ezell Hester Center Lobby. While removing interior wall components such as drywall/stucco and insulation to repair water damage, it was noticed the backside of the exterior wall plywood, window bucks, and building paper were found to have failed. During the design phase, the lobby showed indications that the water intrusion was isolated to the interior wall components to the lobby. It was not until the interior components were removed that the water intrusion had succeeded in penetrating the exterior wall components. At the time of the Architectural design there was no way of knowing the exterior wall components had failed or what condition they would have been in unless the interior wall was removed. The only solution to this minor setback is to rebuild the exterior components of the wall. The wall rebuild would include at a minimum but not be limited to remove and replace the metal cap on the parapet wall, install new window bucks, 5/8” plywood, 30lb building paper, metal lath, stucco finish and paint, the additional cost to rebuild the exterior wall is $19,100. Furthermore, staff is requesting additional contingency funds in the amount of $11,000 to accommodate any other unforeseen needs.
This is a CIP project and was originally budgeted for $150,000, the awarded contract amount is for $48,300 with a 10% contingency ($4830.00). The Original total contract amount was $53,130. The revised contract amount, reflective of Change Order #1, is $83,230.
