Council approves change order and $68,512.84 pay application for North 24th/1st Avenue South storm-sewer work
Summary
Council approved change order #1 ($26,732.84) and pay application #1 ($68,512.84) for the North 24th Street and 1st Avenue South storm-sewer project and accepted staff’s plan to fund the work from 2024 bond or project funds.
Council reviewed an engineering update on the North 24th Street and 1st Avenue South storm-sewer repairs and approved a resolution accepting the work completion.
Staff explained why a change order was required: additional concrete removal and replacement to tie into existing concrete control joints and a discovered existing pipe that could not be reused required replacement. Change order #1 was presented in the amount of $26,732.84. Council also moved to approve pay application #1 to the contractor in the amount of $68,512.84.
A staff member told council the change order and pay application will be paid from the 2024 bond funds or the project fund. “We did review, and we are gonna pay for the change orders out of the 2024 bond funds or the project fund,” a staff speaker said.
Council asked for clarifying detail about project locations and the reason the change order exceeded the original estimate; staff explained the project included two separate locations under one contract and that time-and-materials work on 24th Street surpassed initial cost estimates, requiring a change order. The council voted to approve the resolution, the change order and the pay application.
Staff indicated no further action is required beyond processing the payment and closing the project record per standard procedures.
