Ferre - 2 - CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIDA INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO Howard V. Gary DATE June 1, 1982 FILE B-4450 City Manager SUBJECT S. E. 4 STREET PAVING PROJECT Resolution for Increase in Scope and Contract Amount FROM Donald W. Cather REFERENCES l� Qirect � of Public Works (For Commission Meeting `/ ENCLOSURES. of June 17, 1982) The Department of Public Works recommends the adoption of a resolution authorizing an increase in scope and an increase in the contract between the City of Miami and FRE Construction Co., Inc. in an amount not to exceed $15,000 for S. E. 4 STREET PAVING PROJECT; allocating the additional amount of $15,000 from Highway G.O. Bond Funds. We have become aware that necessary work on S. E. Second Avenue in front of the new City of Miami/University of Miami James L. Knight International Center is not included in either the Convention Center contracts or the S. E. 4 STREET PAVING PROJECT. The Public Works Department recommends that an increase in scope and contract amount be authorized for the S. E. 4 STREET PAVING PROJECT to allow us to do the work. Unit prices already exist in the contract to cover most of the work. The work consists of removal and replacement of approximately 100 feet of sidewalk, the cutting down of an existing retain- ing wall, and the removal of an existing bridge railing. Ile estimate the cost of the work to be $6,000. The original contract contained a $20,000 Provision for Special Items, and, to date, with the construction approximately 50 percent completed, we have used or committed to use virtually all of it. Our expenditures from the Provisions for Special Items have been greater than anticipated because of the pre- ponderance of underground obstructions encountered by the contractor and for which changes to his work had to be made. We recommend an increase in contract of $15,000 to fund the work included in the increase in scope and to provide the $9,000 to replenish the depleted Provisions for Special Items. F nds for the increase would come from Highway G.O. Bond Funds. LEL : he Resolution attached
