Body
BACKGROUND:
The Country Villas Street Reconstruction project includes street, sidewalk, water, and sanitary sewer replacements in the Country Villas Subdivision. City Council awarded the construction contract to Camino Construction, LP on September 10, 2024, in an amount not to exceed $7,556,540.00, with an additional $233,460.00 (3%) approved for construction contingency.
During a sanitary sewer investigation conducted by Public Works, existing sanitary sewer line separations were discovered immediately adjacent to the project limits. Given the proximity to active construction, Staff directed the contractor to perform the necessary repairs, which included relocation of a sanitary sewer manhole, repair of pipe separations, and associated pavement restoration. In addition, field conditions revealed that certain connections to existing sanitary sewer and water mains were not fully accounted for in the original plans and were necessary to complete the project.
Revised quantities have been calculated and verified by both the Contractor and the Design Engineer. This Change Order includes all labor, materials, equipment, and appurtenances necessary to complete the work at the original unit prices. No additional calendar days will be added to the contract time as a result of this Change Order.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The construction contingency was expended via Change Orders No. 01 through No. 03, with Change Order No. 03 requiring Council authorization to cover additional paving requirements on Keller Springs Road not included in the construction plans. Change Order No. 03 was authorized on November 18, 2025.
Camino Construction, LP, has submitted a proposal for Change Order No. 04 to cover the above-mentioned work in an amount not to exceed $18,000.00. Funding is available in Account Unit 854460 (Streets Consolidated).
