Title
Proposed Change Order for Project Management Services for Police Station Construction.
Body
EXPLANATION AND SUMMARY: At the Jan. 7, 2019 Town Council Meeting, Council awarded RFP 19-03, Construction Management contract for the police station construction project to Downey and Scott, LLC. That award was for the base contract of $303,763 plus allowing for a 5% contingency of $15,187.
Because of a pre-construction design phase that took longer than expected and several unknown condition incidents that arose during construction, Downey and Scott expects the current budget for project management to increase by $64,457.
The Police Department would like to use part of the unappropriated money from the 2018 CIP that had been designated for project architect and engineering services for the project, but has not been used, to cover the requested amount plus a 5% contingency, which would bring the total change order amount to $67,680.
This brings the total for project management to approximately $11,000 over the initial budget, which is well within available contingency funds.
