TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
DATE: May 23, 1995
SUBJECT: Approval of project contingency fund increase and Contract Change Order No. 2 for the
Port Chicago Highway/Pacifica Avenue Traffic Signal, Project No. 0662-6R4226-93, Bay
Point area.
Specific Request(s) or Recommendation(s)&Bac group u i ica ion
I. Recommended Action:
Approve project contingency fund increase of$45,000.00 and Contract Change Order No. 2 in the
amount of$46,000.00 and authorize the Public Works Director to execute it in order to compensate
the contractor, Wingard Engineering, for additional work required to repair a storm damaged traffic
control signal.
II. Financial Impact:
The increase in the contingency fund will be from Road funds or indemnity payments from Pacific
Gas and Electric (see Background) and/or FEMA, with whom claims have been filed by
Construction and Maintenance Divisions, respectively.
III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
A storm caused two overhead electric wires to make contact with the traffic signal causing
extensive damage. Because the total of Contract Change Orders 1 thru 2 exceeds $25,000.00
and exceeds the project contingency fund, Board approval of the change order and the increase
in the project contingency is required.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
Without approval the traffic control signal will not be repaired.
