Board approves two contract change orders reducing annual street treatment and striping costs
Summary
The board approved deductive change orders on two annual public-works contracts: a $35,082.07 reduction for annual striping and pavement markings and a $554,880 deduction on the annual surface treatment contract.
The Olive Branch Board of Aldermen approved two final change orders that reduce contract amounts on annual pavement work.
The board approved a deductive change order (CO2-25) on the Riverside Traffic Systems contract for annual striping and pavement markings, reducing the contract by $35,082.07 to a new total of $609,151.59. City staff said temporary striping will be handled under another contract related to pavement preservation.
The board also approved final change order CO2-25 on the Lehman Roberts Company contract for annual surface treatment, a deductive change of $554,880 that reduces the contract to a new total of $918,244. Staff said field measurements and project progress produced the deduction and that overall pavement program budgets should remain balanced despite the change.
Both motions passed by voice vote: the striping change order was moved by Alderman Collins and seconded by Alderman Pat Hamilton; the surface treatment change order was moved by Alderman Wallace and approved after discussion. The transcript records voice approvals but does not record a roll-call tally of individual votes.
City staff said the striping scope removed will be included in another contract and that the surface-treatment deduction reflects post-construction field measurements; staff recommended approving both deductive change orders.
