Title
Change Order # 1 to the Renovation of Fire Station # 4 adding ADA Accessible Restroom (B)
This item will increase the Purchase Order to Sandpiper Builders, LLC by $3,573.50 for renovations to Fire Station #4 and extend the completion date to April 8, 2006.
Explanation
The Facilities Management Department is renovating Fire Station # 4 to upgrade to ADA standards and adding one ADA restroom designated for female staff. The original bid came in at $24,810 so City Commission approval was not necessary. After bid, a new fire alarm system was installed, making modifications to the planned renovations necessary. Electrical, plumbing, phone and grill work were required in order to meet fire alarm codes. The result is an additional project cost in the amount of $3,537.50 for a new total of $28,347.50. The completion date must also be extended to April 8, 2006.
Fiscal Note
The Facilities Management Department has funds available in account # 9999 332 910 M627 6020 5220.
Recommendation
Recommended Motion: The City Commission: 1) approve the increase in the purchase order to Sandpiper Builders, LLC in the amount of $3,537.50; 2) authorize the City Manager to issue a change order to Sandpiper Builders, LLC for $3,537.50; and 3) change the completion date on the purchase order to April 8, 2006.
Alternative Recommendation A: The City Commission deny the requested increase in the purchase order. The impact would be that the work would not be completed as desired for ADA compliance and for the additional restroom for female staff.
