Sapulpa council approves 170‑day no‑cost extension for Booker T. Washington project
Summary
The council approved a no‑cost Change Order No. 3 to the Booker T. Washington Recreation Project contract with Hoey Construction, extending substantial completion by 170 days because of unresolved utility relocations, an elevation discrepancy and weather delays.
The Sapulpa City Council approved a no‑cost contract time extension of 170 calendar days to the Booker T. Washington Recreation Facility construction agreement with Hoey Construction Co., citing utility relocations, an unforeseen elevation discrepancy and weather‑related delays.
The extension (Change Order No. 3) increases the contract duration from 365 days to 535 days but does not change the contract price. Hugo Naifeh moved the approval and David Mortazavi seconded; the council’s roll call vote was 10–0. Project documents in the packet explained that utility conflicts beginning in January 2026 prevented critical‑path work until resolution in late April and that a subsequent site survey uncovered an elevation discrepancy requiring corrective measures (RFI No. 11). The packet characterizes the time extension as a no‑cost change to implement the elevation resolution in place of planned rock removal.
Staff recommended approval to avoid contractor claims and to formally extend contract milestones; the change order also permits the project team to document revised substantial completion and final payment schedules.
