FLORIDA �� INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO Honorable Mayor and DATE ( 3 FILE B-4548 Members of the City Commission r SUBJECT NW 15 Avenue Paving Project Increase in Contract FROM C e s H d i 0 REFERENCES Cit ager Resolution ENCLOSURES RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution authorizing an increase in the contract between Resol, Inc. and the City of Miami for NW 15 Avenue Paving Project in the amount of $9,570.00; and further ratifying the City Managers written finding that the increase resulted from emergency circumstances. BACKGROUND The Department of Public Works, in an effort to serve all residents of the City of Miami, has determined that it is now appropriate and in order for the City Commission to ratify the City Manager's decision to increase the -contract dated July 8, 1993 between the City and Resol, Inc. for construction of NW 15 Avenue Paving Project in the amount of $9,570.00 for necessary extra work, and to ratify the City Manager's emergency finding that allowed the extra work to continue. The City Commission awarded a contract to Resol, Inc. for the construction NW 15 Avenue Paving Project No. 341175, in the amount of $164,430.00 on July 8, 1993. Generally, the project consisted of clearing and grading, construction of asphaltic pavement, concrete sidewalk and curb and gutter, median curb and landscaping in the public right of•way of NW 15 Avenue between NW 46 Street and NW 50 Street. After the contract was awarded, the Public' Works Department responded to a request by the neighborhood property owners to provide for on street parking. This request resulted in an increase in landscape costs for twenty two new trees that replaced existing, trees that had to be removed. Funds for the increase in contract are available from monies already appropriated for the project in the City's Capital Improvement Appropriation Ordinance, Project Number 341175. V14 ,f' 04- 206 To Fi le FROM A�6� Cesar H. Odio City Manager CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIDA INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM DATE January 19, 1994 FILEB-4548 SUBJECT EMERGENCY FINDING N.W. 15 AVENUE PAVING PROJECT Increase in Contract and REFERENCES Project Scope ENCLOSURES Based on information supplied to me by the Director of the Department of Public Works, I have found that an EMERGENCY existed justifying additional work on the N.W. 15 Avenue Paving Project beyond the original scope which resulted in an increase in the contract. The reasons for the emergency need and subsequent authorization to perform additional work and increase in contract are as follows: The City Commission awarded a contract to Resol, Inc. for the construction N.W. 15 Avenue Paving Project, B--4548, Capital Improvement Project No. 341175, on July 8, 1993 in the amount of $164,430.00. The project consists of the construction of asphaltic pavement, concrete curbs and gutters, concrete sidewalks, and landscaping for approximately 0.25 miles of N.W. 15 Avenue between N.W. 46 Street and N.W. 50 Street. The existing median parkway was reduced in width as shown on the revised design plans for the project. During the construction demolition phase the reduced median required that 14 existing trees be removed due to their interference with the proposed median curbing. Additionally, there were 22 new trees (15 ft. high, by 10 ft. spread) that' were needed to be planted to replace the trees that were removed. The cost of the removal and replacement of the trees resulted in a net extra cost of $9,5.70.00 above the original contract amount. Funds for the increase in contract due to said tree removal and replacement, are available from monies already appropriated in the City's Capital Tmprovement Appropriation Ordinance 10938, Project No. 341175.
