Summer Street reconstruction: board approves time extensions for change orders
Summary
The board approved time-only change orders 9–12 for the Summer Street reconstruction project, citing winter shutdown and utility relocation delays by AT&T and NIPSCO.
The board approved time extensions for change orders 9 through 12 on the Summer Street reconstruction project, noting no change in the project’s cost. A staff member explained that the primary reasons for the requested extensions were a winter shutdown and delays caused by utility relocations by AT&T and NIPSCO.
“These are simply time extensions. There's no economic, impact. Our project increased cost. The bulk of it was a winter shutdown,” the staff member said when presenting the request submitted by Dean Button. The staff member also said the other delays were “basically utility, relocation delays by AT and T and NIPSCO gas.”
A board member recommended approval and the board concurred. The action recorded at the meeting was administrative: extend the contract schedule for the four change orders. The change orders did not include additional money, and the board did not alter scope.
