Board approves $1,200 change order and $195,956.97 pay estimate for Second Avenue Trail South Extension
Summary
The board approved an $1,200 change order to pave a small gap on the Second Avenue Trail South Extension (city to pay 20% pending reimbursement) and approved pay estimate No. 3 for PGA Incorporated totaling $195,956.97.
The Board of Public Works approved a change order and a pay estimate on Aug. 5 for the Second Avenue Trail South Extension project with PGA Incorporated.
Board members described a gap in the plans between the trail and railing that the contractor would otherwise fill with aggregate or stone. To reduce maintenance and produce a uniform surface, the board approved a contractor‑proposed paving solution for $1,200. The board noted that the state Department of Transportation approved the work under an 80/20 cost share, so the city’s share is 20 percent and the city will request reimbursement for its portion. A staff member explained: “This was approved by DOT because it's an $80.20 cost share so of the 1,200, the city will only be have to pay 20 percent of this, when we request reimbursement.”
Separately, the board approved pay estimate No. 3 for PGA Incorporated in the total amount of $195,956.97; staff and the consultant MSA had reviewed the estimate and recommended approval. A board member moved to approve the change order and pay estimate, a second was recorded, and both motions carried by voice vote.
The transcript does not record a breakdown of the pay estimate or the dollar amount the city will pay immediately for the $1,200 change order (20 percent of $1,200 equals $240), nor does it record the timing of reimbursement requests to DOT. Staff indicated the work was acceptable as an asphalt finish to reduce maintenance.
