Commission approves Millenville change order and awards Georgetown pump-station contract
Summary
Sanford commissioners approved a $45,863.68 change order for the Millenville drainage project and awarded the Georgetown Phase 1A pump-branch drainage construction contract to Sandpek for $6,433,806.
On Aug. 11 the Sanford City Commission approved two drainage-related procurement actions: a change order for the Millenville drainage project and a larger construction procurement for the Georgetown pump-branch drainage Phase 1A.
Millenville change order: Staff requested a change order to increase the purchase order for the Millenville drainage project and issue a change order to Universal Contracting Construction in an amount not to exceed $45,863.68 for additional asphalt and concrete work added during construction. The commission approved the change order unanimously.
Georgetown Phase 1A procurement: The commission also approved procurement and a budget transfer to Sandpek for the Georgetown Phase 1A pump-branch drainage project in the amount of $6,433,806. Staff said the action covers construction work to install drainage and pumping capacity in the Georgetown area. The motion passed unanimously.
Why it matters: Both actions are part of ongoing efforts to address stormwater and drainage infrastructure; the larger Georgetown contract represents a multi-million-dollar capital project that will advance localized drainage and flood-mitigation capacity in the Georgetown service area.
Ending: Both measures were approved by the commission and staff will execute the change order and the construction contract and report back on schedules and mobilization.
