Santa Maria infrastructure change order increases contract by $605,947 but remains under budget
Summary
City staff reported a $605,947 change order for the Santa Maria project (original contract ≈ $4.6M) to add street, drainage and parking improvements, bringing the total to about $5.285M; staff got verbal consent to proceed with ordering materials and will present formal approval at the next meeting.
Public works staff told the council the Santa Maria infrastructure project will include a $605,947 change order that increases the contract from about $4.6 million to approximately $5,285,000, still within the project budget and funded from TIF 1.
Changes include additional street work along Fourth Street, upsized storm pipes (from 12" to 15"), sidewalk upgrades, added erosion control and a roughly 30‑space overflow parking area to serve the adjacent sports complex and new pond. Staff said the contractor (Feutz) is ready to proceed with ordering materials; staff requested the council’s authorization, in principle, to let contractors place orders so work can proceed on schedule. Formal approval of the change order will return on the next meeting agenda.
Funding: staff stated the change order is within the approved project budget and that funding is available from TIF 1. Council members expressed support and asked staff to return with the finalized change order for formal action.
