Consideration of Supplement #1 to TDOT Contract No. 7697 (COF Contract 2011-0052) with the Tennessee Department of Transportation for the Mack Hatcher Northwest Sanitary Sewer Line Relocation Contract. (07/28/16 CIC 4-0)
body
Purpose
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide information to the Board of Mayor and Aldermen (BOMA) for the consideration of Supplement #1 to the existing contract with TDOT (Contract No. 7697) for the relocation of the sanitary sewer lines for the Mack Hatcher Northwest Extension project.
Background
The original contract was approved by BOMA at the April 26, 2011 meeting. The original construction cost estimate, that was completed almost 6 years ago, was a preliminary number based on the sanitary sewer mains within the right-of-way. As staff started worked on the design the estimated construction cost substantially increased due to the scope of necessary relocations.
Financial Impact
The contract supplement will increase the reimbursement amount associated with the sanitary sewer line relocation for the Mack Hatcher Northwest Extension Project. The original amount approved was $302,912.71 and will be increased to $1,130,781. The additional cost will be absorbed by the state as a part of the project.
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the contract referenced above.
