Seaman, Deputy City Clerk DATE: February 26, 1992 MEMORANDUM TO: Jim Ajax, Director of Public Works FROM: Dennis H. Wright, City Engineer(1 SUBJECT: Engineers Report Accepting Reservoir Landscaping Project No. # 90-2-07 Council authorized the call for bids on October 1, 1990. Bids were opened on October 17, 1990 and were rejected because they were 25% over the Engineer's Estimate. The project was re-advertised in February of 1991. Council awarded the contract on April 15, 1991. Award was made to Emory and Emory Inc. in the amount of $97,745.56. Notice to proceed was issued on April 30, 1991. The first working day charged to the project was May 6, 1991 and work was substantially complete on August 22, 1991. Original contract time expired on July 2, 1991 and there were four change orders which extended time eleven working days to July 18,1991. The contractor submitted an additional claim for 49 working days claiming time for delays in relocation of existing City facilities, delays relating to interference from other contractors working in the area, and for extra work requested but not contained in the original contract. The City and Contractor could not agree on the exact extent of the delays or time required for extra work and negotiated a time extension of 16.5 days extending contract time to noon on August 12, 1991. This left the contractor 10.5 days over contract time for which liquidated damages will be assessed. There were five change orders issued for this project increasing the contract amount by $ 2,954.27. The final contract cost was $ 100,193.58 less liquidated damages of $2,625.00 for a total of $97,568.58. The project was completed substantially in conformance with the project specifications and I recommend the project be accepted.
