Item Description:

Consideration of Change Order No. 4 to the contract with Wiedenmann, Inc. for construction of the Sunset Drive and Ridgeview Road Water Main Replacement, Phase 2, Project, PN 5-C-033-16..
________________________________________________________________________________
Summary:
This water main replacement project will replace 1960s cast iron water pipe in the Ridgeview South neighborhood. The first phase of this project included 2,600 linear feet of water main replacements along Dennis Avenue between Sunset Drive and Keeler Street, and along Keeler Street north from Dennis Avenue. The second phase initially included the replacement of 4,000 linear feet of water mains along Sunset Drive, Sheridan Street, Ridgeview Road, Ridgeway Drive, and Central Street in the Ridgeview South neighborhood area.
This change order will allow for the replacement of an additional 3,500 linear feet of aging 1960s cast iron water pipe and 2,400 linear feet of service lines in the Ridgeview South neighborhood. The addition of this work to the project will complete all needed water distribution system improvements in this neighborhood. Economical construction alternatives and competitive bid pricing resulted in a much lower final construction cost than was originally anticipated. This has left sufficient project budget to include the additional improvements which are needed in the area.
This change order adds $857,965.00 to the construction contract total. The current contract amount of $1,031,230.00 will be increased with this change order to $1,889,195.00. This increase is within the project budget.
Construction of the additional water main replacements is expected to begin in early Spring 2020 and will be completed in Summer of 2020.
