PROJECT NO. CIP 99-529 CLARK FIELD IMPROVEMENTS,
BUILDING DEMOLITION - ACCEPTANCE

 

Recommendation :

It is recommended that the City Council:

  1. Accept the work by Viking Equipment Corp. for Project No. CIP 99-529 Clark Field Improvements;
  2. Authorize the Mayor to sign the Notice of Completion; and
  3. Authorize Staff to release payment to Viking Equipment Corp. (10% retained for 35 days following filing of Notice of Completion).

 

Background:

On January 25, 2000, City Council approved the award of the construction contract for Clark Field Building Demolition to Viking Equipment Corporation, in the amount of $8,300.00. However, during the demolition work, it was discovered that what initially appeared to be a retaining wall behind the building was a row of cement blocks without any structural value. After an extensive engineering evaluation, Staff decided that the location in question needed a retaining wall to stabilize the slope. Therefore, on July 11, 2000, City Council approved a supplemental agreement in the amount of $33,239.00 to cover the construction cost of retaining wall and backfilling to provide slope stability.

The contractor has completed the work to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works/City Engineer.

 

Fiscal Impact :

The project was completed under the budget of $50,000, and there was a saving of $3,051 which will be put back to the project budget. No additional appropriation is required.
