The village approved change order No. 5 for the sewer separation and detention basin project with Boulder Contractors, reflecting two contract modifications. Staff explained that poor soils required wider trenches and additional backfill, accounting for a $40,000 increase, while adjusted quantities across the project produced a $103,364.50 savings, resulting in a net contract decrease of $63,364.50.
"The 1st 1 is an increase of $40,000, and that's for trench backfill... The 2nd contract modification reflects a savings of $103,364.50... So the total change order results in a decrease to the contract of $63,364.50, bringing the new contract price to $11,914,857.25," staff said. The committee approved the change order and the board adopted the consent agenda containing the item.
