Background Information:
On July 17, 2003, the City Commission adopted R-03-829 authorizing a contract, in the amount of
$1,949,039, with Professional General Contractors, Inc. for the project entitled "Orange Bowl
Stadium Structural Repairs, B-30297", On March 25, 2004, R-04-0179 was adopted authorizing an
increase in the amount of $500,000 to the contract, increasing the contract to $2,449,031 to pay for the
additional repairs to access ramps and supports of the upper trusses. On June 24, 2004, R-04-0428
authorized a second increase to the contract in the amount of $400,000, increasing the contract to
$2,849,031 to pay for other repairs to severely damaged overstressed structures.
A third amendment to increase the contract in the amount of $3,717,005 is necessary to pay for
additional repairs. The increase includes $2,954,256 for additional work described in Exhibit A of the
Third Amendment and an allowance of $762,749 for anticipated additional work. During the course
of work under the contract, generalized severe deterioration has been observed in the concourse at 36'
- 0" Elevation at the north and south side of the Stadium, where the 3" concrete slab and the
supporting structural framing are showing the same cracks and deflection that were present in the
limited repair done under the Second Amendment to the contract. In addition, in the lower bowl, the
tread and rise plates at the expansion joints and the end of support of the stands; the raker beam and
the connection to the columns; the toe and head of the vomitory ramps, as well as the lateral bracing
of the main structural framing require extensive repair because of the deterioration caused by
corrosion and concrete distress related to corrosion. These repairs must be completed prior to the
August 2005 start of the University of Miami College football season.
