Board approves $104,252 change order for East Lincoln Avenue reconstruction; staff reports road reopened
Summary
Change Order No. 9 for East Lincoln Avenue reconstruction — adding $104,252.50 (about a 4.81% contract increase) to fund a PetroMat pavement interlayer, drainage improvements, and directional drilling for a water main — was approved. Staff also reported the road opened earlier that day.
Engineering staff presented Change Order No. 9 for the East Lincoln Avenue reconstruction project (Job No. 20180046), explaining the order adds $104,252.50 to the contract (a 4.81% increase). The scope includes a PetroMat pavement interlayer that can be placed on the mill surface, upgraded ductile iron storm pipe with limestone backfill near the storm outfall at the GDC parking lot, and changing water-main installation to directional drilling within a utility easement at 305 Surrey Avenue to reduce invasiveness.
The board approved the change order by motion and unanimous voice vote. Engineering staff noted the additional funds are being provided through redevelopment funding approved by the Redevelopment Commission. Staff later reported East Lincoln Avenue opened earlier in the afternoon through a cooperative effort of several city departments, timed for the town fair.
No community objections were recorded at the meeting; staff emphasized the directional-drilling method is intended to be less invasive for the property owner at 305 Surrey Avenue.
