SUBJECT: Approval of Project Contingency Fund Increase and Contract Change Order No. 7 for the
Olympic Boulevard Widening Project, Project No. 0662-6R4092-93, Walnut Creek area
Specific Request(s)or Recommendations)&Background&Justification
I. Recommended Action:
APPROVE Project Contingency Fund increase of$7,000.00 and Contract Change Order No. 7,
in the approximate amount of$13,000.00, anOUTHORIZE the Public Works Director to execute
it in order to compensate the Contractor, Ghiaotti Brothers Construction, Inc., for additional work.
II. Financial Impact:
The increase in the Contingency Fund will be from State and Federal funds (77%) and South
Walnut Creek A.O.B. (23%).
III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
Additional item increases and unforeseen extra work not on the original plan were required to
complete the project. Because the total of Contract Change Orders Nos. 1 through 6 exceeds
$25,000.00, and exceeds the Project Contingency Fund, Board APPROVAL of the Change Order
and the increase in the Project Contingency Fund is required.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
Without approval, the contractor will not receive payment of work performed in good faith.
