III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
Additional funding is needed to pay the contractor for unforeseen extra work. The contractor
removed unsuitable material, removed a roadway section with extra thick asphalt concrete,
constructed additional drainage inlets, and placed additional aggregate base. Approval of the
project contingency fund increase is required to compensate the contractor for the extra work.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
The lack of approval would prevent successful completion of this contract and preclude payment to
the contractor for required work.
