Item #02 Approval of Change Order No. 1 to 2nd Amend. Ocoee Commons PUD AGENDA ITEM COVER SHEET Meeting Date: January 16, 2007 Item # 2- Contact Name: Contact Number: David Wheeler 407 -905-3100, ext. 1505 Reviewed By: ~ ~ Department Director: _ ~ J City Manager: _--= == =-- Subject: Approval of Change Order No.1 to the Second Amendment to the Annexation and Developer Agreement for Ocoee Commons PUD Background Summary: Under the Second Amendment to Annexation and Developer Agreement with Ocoee Commons LLC, a sixteen inch wastewater force main and sixteen inch reuse main were installed through the Ocoee Commons PUD development as part of the City's CIP program to relocate and upsize the force main on SR 50 and the continued expansion of the reuse system. The project and the Agreement were approved by the City Commission on October 19,2004. The pipelines were installed over the following twelve to fifteen months. As part of the construction process, staff review of the project shop drawings determined that the plug valves on the wastewater force main were not full port opening valves. The industry standard is a 80% opening through the valve. The increased cost to provide full port opening plug valves was $9,790.50 for three 16- inch and three 6-inch plug valves. Knowing the importance of this pipeline, staff felt the change was justified and required the change during the shop drawing review and material purchase phases of the construction. The developer provided a verbal quote on the cost increase but was not very diligent in delivering the documentation to the City staff to process the change order. The project has been completed and facilities are in operation at this time. Issue: Should the City Commission approve Change Order No.1 to the Second Amendment to Annexation and Development Agreement between the City of Ocoee and Ocoee Commons LLC, the developer of the Ocoee Commons PUD development. Recommendations The Engineering Department recommends that the City Commission approve the change to full port opening plug valves and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute Change order No.1 with Ocoee Commons LLC. Attachments: Change Order No. 1 Financial Impact: The cost of this change will be paid out of the 2003 Utility Bond Issue, where the original project was funded.

District 4 Mayor S. Scott Vanderg-rift STAFF REPORT TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners FROM: David A. Wheeler, P.E. City Engineer DATE: January 4, 2007 RE: Ocoee Commons Development and SR 50 Force Main Relocation and Reuse Water System Extension ISSUE The Engineering Department requests that the City Commission approve Change Order No.1 to the Second Amendment to Annexation and Development Agreement between the City of Ocoee and Ocoee Commons LLC, the developer of the Ocoee Commons PUD development. The change order is to provide full port opening plug valves for the new wastewater force main through the Ocoee Commons PUD development. BACKGROUNDIDISCUSSION The following is taken from the October 19,2004, Staff Report to the City Commission: The wastewater force main that is located along SR 50 has been included in the 5 Year CIP for replacement and relocation to take it off of SR 50 and upsize it to a 16-inch diameter pipeline. The preferred new route for the force main would take the new pipeline along the proposed Maine Street alignment, through the Ocoee Commons PUD development, cross country to City property and onto Clarke Road to reconnect to the existing force main. The existing force main on SR 50 is undersized for the flows it is required to handle. It needs to be up sized to a 16 inch diameter from its current size of 12 inch diameter to adequately handle the current flows, possible grow, and to match the size of the force main on Clarke Road. The force main of SR 50 has experienced numerous breaks over the past five years that have resulted in the discharge of untreated wastewater along Colonial Drive. This is a violation of the City's wastewater permit with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. In addition, with the future widening of SR 50 looming on the horizon the City needs to relocate this vitally important pipeline to a more accessible location and get it out from under the future roadway. FDOT is requiring that this pipeline be moved or for the City to guarantee that no problems will occur once their road is widened. The upsizing of the reuse mains through the Ocoee Commons PUD development will start to fill in the gap between the City's north and south service reuse service areas. The north service area is basically the Clarke Road corridor, with the north entrance to the West Oaks Mall being the southern most point of service, and the south service is the Maguire Road and Old Winter Garden Road Corridor, with the intersection of Blackwood A venue and Old Winter Garden Road being the northern most point of service. The up sizing of approximately 3,000 linear feet of 8-inch diameter to 16-inch diameter pipe will allow the City to fill in a portion of the gap between the large diameter pipelines in the north and south. The route through the Ocoee Commons PUD development is one of the routes that staff looked at in connecting the service areas. Due to the cost savings of upsizing the developer's required system saves the City money. This pipeline can be installed without working in and around other utilities, roadways, landscaping, and the public. Earlier this year the City Commission approved the employment of Design Services Group, Inc.(DSG), the engineer of record for the Ocoee Commons PUD project, to provide design services for the force main layout and routing through the development project. Staff and DSG have agreed on a layout that takes the new pipeline through the Ocoee Commons PUD development in a west to east direction. This proposed layout will not require any disruption to existing utilities and can be installed as part of the Ocoee Commons PUD and significantly keep the City's cost down. In keeping the cost down, the construction does not include the working in and around other utilities, roadways, landscaping, and the public. The Ocoee Commons PUD development has started construction of its infrastructure and the development lays along the proposed route for the new force main. Staff and DSG have worked through the developer, Ustler/Fagan, Inc., with their contractor, JMHC, Inc. in getting representative costs to perform the work for the force main and the reuse pipeline. The proposed force main pipeline will be epoxy-lined ductile iron material to provide a much stronger material than PVC with a lining that is non-corrosive to the wastewater. JMHC has provided a proposed cost of $271,580 to install 2,070 linear feet of 16 inch force main, 1,690 linear feet of 6 inch force main (extension for Health Central), and appropriate appurtenances. The up sizing of the reuse main is estimated to cost $104,869. Staff has reviewed the cost estimates and recommends acceptance. The funds for the force main project were included in the 2003 Utility Bond Issue. The funds for the upsizing of the reuse main can be taken from 2003 Utility Bond Issue, staff feels the opportunity to do this upsizing and start to fill in the gap between the reuse service areas for the proposed cost would be an opportunity lost. Additionally, if the City is to wait until all the projects listed in the Bond Issue were completed to use excess funds, the cost to this project could be 4 times or more to a similar project. Also, the route allows for the City to install the pipeline as one of the initial utilities in the road right-of-way as opposed to coming back years later and attempting to fit the pipeline in around the other utilities and everything else that gets installed in the ROW. Change Order No.1 is to provide full port opening plug valves on the wastewater force main, as opposed to the standard port (80%) opening plug valves. The reason for this change is to lessen any restrictions within the pipeline to allow for more efficient operations. Additionally, if the pipeline ever needed to be "pigged", the plug valves would not be a problem. The industry standard for plug valves is an 80% opening, or that when the valve is in the open position only 80% of the pipe is open. The valve restricts the full opening for liquid flow. Knowing the importance of this pipeline, staff felt the change was justified and required the change during the shop drawing review and material purchase phases of the construction. The developer provided a verbal quote on the cost increase but was not very diligent in delivering the documentation to the City staff to process the change order. The project has been completed and facilities are in operation at this time.
