CITY ENGINEER/UTILITIES DIRECTOR ISO N.LAKESHORE DRIVE.OCOEE,FLORIDA 34761 PHONE(407)656-2322 EXT. 142•FAX(407)656-7835 MEMORANDUM DATE: March 14, 1997 TO: The Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners FROM: David Wheeler, P.E.-CP0 � Assistant City Engineer/Utilities Director SUBJECT: Story Road/Kissimmee Avenue and Marshall Farms Road/Maguire Road Intersection Improvements Project Change Order Request No. 1 Attached for your review is Change Order Request No. I on the Story Road/Kissimmee Avenue and Marshall Farms Road/Maguire Road Intersection Improvements Project with Southland Construction, Inc. This change order request was initiated by City staff at the request of Sprint Telephone company due to conflicts with the Sprint duct bank under the pavement for Maguire Road. During the design phase of the project, approximately three years ago and last fall, PEC contacted all utility companies, including Sprint, about locations of their systems within the construction limits of this project. Repeatedly, PEC pressured Sprint, Florida Power Corp., Time Warner Cable company and Lake Apopka Natural Gas Corp. to ensure that all of their systems were accurately located and displayed on PEC's drawings and that vertical data was also provided for potential conflicts with proposed structures. Therefore, PEC's plans could include designing around conflicts and requested utility relocations to accommodate the new structures. These utility adjustments included conflicts with the City's water and sewer systems. PEC's design was complicated by the extra-ordinary amount of utilities in the Story. Kissimmee, Maguire, and Geneva intersection and the limited amount of right-of-way and the area north towards TeePee Lumber, was very difficult due to the fact that was no ability to provide any play in elevations for the pipelines. In the fall, when the project was reauthorized to finally take the project to construction, PEC and Staff again met with Sprint and the other affected utilities to review the project and finalize any known or potential conflicts. We were assured that nothing had changed from the initial contacts of three years ago. PEC completed their design based upon the assurance that all the data that they had was accurate. After the project was advertised and bids were received in early December, Sprint requested a meeting to discuss a conflict which they had discovered. At a meeting in early January, Sprint stated that there was a conflict between their major duct bank that runs north/south through the 1/1 THE PRIDE OF WEST ORANGE 4/ intersection and our proposed stormwater pipeline that was crossing the intersection. This conflict was a vertical distance of 12 to 15 inches into the proposed 36 inch pipeline; therefore significantly reducing the flow capacity of the pipeline and basically counter productive to the drainage/flooding improvements that were proposed. Because there was no ability to shift the vertical alignment of the pipeline and Sprint did not offer to relocate their duct bank, Sprint agreed to pay for the redesign of the stormwater system to solve the conflict and any additional construction costs associated with the redesign. PEC completed the redesign and the new alignment was presented to Southland for estimating changes in construction costs and scheduling. PEC's estimate for additional design services has amounted to approximately $4,500. Through negotiations with Southland, the additional construction costs will be $9,296.40 and require an additional seven days to complete. Shortly after the new design was finalized, Sprint requested another meeting because they discovered another conflict. They proposed that the redesign created a bigger conflict. In the meeting, staff and PEC proposed an additional plan to solve the new conflict which could not include returning to the original design. This new design included relocation of the City's sewer forcemain in the affected area, due to additional conflicts. With the removal of the old forcemain we proposed to over excavate the trench and lower the Sprint duct bank. Again, Sprint agreed to pay for additional construction costs related to relieving the conflicts between their duct bank and the new stormwater system. This new redesign was presented to Southland for estimating costs and scheduling. Through negotiations between staff/PEC and Southland, a cost of$30,000 was agreed upon, with an additional time of seven days to complete. The totals for this change order are $39,296.40 and an additional fourteen days. In addition, the PEC fees for redesign are approximately $4,500. The total cost of this additional work to relieve the conflicts with Sprint's duct bank is $43,796.40. Sprint has agreed to reimburse the city $35,000 of this cost with the City absorbing the remainder. The cost of$8,796.40 is construction dollars which the City would have realized due to conflicts between our forcemain and the proposed stormwater system regardless of the alignment. The City's share of this change order will come from the project's construction contingency. This cost amounts to approximately 0.76 percent of the original bid price of$1,163,718.10. The attachment is a copy of the change order, the entire package is available for review if desired. I recommend that the City Commission accept Sprint Telephone Company's offer to participate in this change order in the amount of$35,000,to cover all of PEC's expenses and the majority of the construction costs. Additionally, I recommend that the City Commission approve Change Order No. I with Southland Construction, Inc. by increasing the contract amount by $39,296.20, with an extension in contract time of fourteen days, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute Change Order No. 1.
