PREVIOUS ACTION/PRESENTATION

On August 23, 2021, City Council awarded a bid in the amount of $7,865,846 for Residential Concrete Pavement Repair Zone P4, Project 7097 to Metroplex Concrete Construction, Inc.

 

On March 24, 2023, the City Manager approved Change Order No. 1, to reduce quantities and provide unit item price increases as allowed for under section 104.2.1 of the North Central Texas Council of Governments Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction.

BACKGROUND

This close out change order is for reduction in quantities of contract items that were not needed to complete the neighborhood zone rehabilitation project. The project began construction in November 2021 and completed construction in January 2024. The project repaired 43,576 square yards of street pavement, 32,998 square yards of alley pavement and 165,872 square feet of sidewalk. The project was originally designed based on estimated quantities of street, sidewalk, and alley repairs needed based on the City’s road condition evaluation. The remaining funds will be used on a future residential rehabilitation project.

 

If this change order is not awarded at Council, the City will not be able to utilize the remaining funds on a future project.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY/STRATEGIC GOALS

This item approves a change in the contract with Metroplex Concrete Construction, Inc. for construction services for the Residential Concrete Pavement Repair Zone P4 project.  The second change order, reducing the current contract by $346,439, will leave a project balance of $478,261, for future expenditures.
