FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, CHIEF ENGINEER

project, Project No. 7542-6D8563-95
Specific Request(s) or ecommen a Ions Background us I fca fon
I. Recommended Action:
APPROVE Contract Change Order No. 3 in the approximate amount of $33,000.00, and
AUTHORIZE the Chief Engineer to execute it in order to compensate the contractor, William G.
Mc Cullough Company for unforseen repair of Bunce Meadows Drive damaged by construction
traffic.
ll. Financial Impact:
The project contingency funds are sufficient to cover the change order costs. The source of funds
is Drainage Area 76.
III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
The cumulative total of Contract Change Orders Nos. 1 through 3 exceeds $25,000.00, requiring
Board approval. The project was designed to overlay Bunce Meadows Drive to mitigate road
damages caused by construction traffic. Road damages exceeded expectation and removal and
replacement of the pavement as well as base failure repairs were required.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
The lack of approval would preclude payment for work that was performed in good faith.
