BACKGROUND:
The Dyal WTP staff is requesting that City Council approve an increase to the previously approved contingency amount and associated budget transfer for the Sulfuraetor Rehabilitation and Aluminum Dome Repair project (WS21WS).
On April 27, 2021, City Council approved an initial contingency amount of $19,795 (10%) related to this project. A recent preconstruction visit conducted on May 25, 2021 by Vortex Services, LLC and Dyal WTP staff revealed the need for additional epoxy coating/lining that is required to ensure additional protection of the existing concrete structures. Subsequent to the preconstruction visit, a revised estimated project total was submitted by Vortex Services, LLC and is attached as part of this agenda item.
The total contingency requested is $53,950 which is an increase of $34,155 over the previously approved contingency amount of $19,795. The requested funds that were not originally budgeted will be transferred from Account No. 421-4020-536.43-00 (Electric) are available order to meet this request.
Staff is requesting the approval of the contingency increase amount for a total project contingency of $53,950.
