Title
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT WITH JA URBAN, INC. PROVIDING FUNDS AND TIME EXTENSION FOR ADDITIONAL WORK FOR PROJECT NO.1656 - COMMUNITY CENTER UPGRADE
Body
I. SUMMARY
Project No. 1656 - Community Center Upgrade is part of the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) that consists of reconstruction of the restrooms to ensure compliance with current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and California Building Code (CBC) standards. On October 19, 2021, the City Council awarded a construction contract to JA Urban, Inc. for Project No. 1656: Community Center Restroom upgrade for a not to exceed amount of $1,561,857.00 with a construction contingency in the amount of $234,278.55. A Notice to Proceed was issued on March 9, 2022 and the contractor started the work on March 20, 2022.
As of March 2023, the project is significantly complete. The project was affected by supply chain related issues and inflation which have resulted in construction delays and price increases of construction materials. The supply chain issues, inflation, additional upgrades and the unexpected construction challenges have depleted the construction contingency allocated to this project which necessitates the request for additional funding.
The available budget for the project for FY22/23 is $1,900,000.00 which is sufficient to cover the additional funding needed. Staff requests that the City Council approve Amendment No. 1 (Exhibit No. 1) to the Construction Contract to increase the contract sum from $1,561,857.00 to $1,856,830.80, expand the scope of work for the construction component of the project, and extend the performance schedule for completion of all work.
