RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Authorize additional expenditure from Park Improvement Fund CIP 97-506 for Clark Building Seismic Retrofit Project in an amount of $3,175.

BACKGROUND:

On March 11, 1997 the City Council awarded a construction contract to D & M Construction Inc. in the amount of $86,555 with contingencies of ($13,000) for minor changes as necessary.

ANALYSIS:

Four change orders for the total amount of $16,175 have been issued. These change orders are attached for your information. During the demolition portion of the contract presence of asbestos was noticed. The building materials were tested and found that asbestos existed only in the heater duct wrap. It is mandatory that asbestos found during construction be removed. Other items of work were added to the original contract to complete the job, such as removal of the old heaters, installation of new heaters, and insulation of the ceiling for more energy efficiency.
