CITY OF COLTON AGENDA REPORT FOR COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 6, 2006 TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: AMER JAKHER P.E., PW DIRECTOR/CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: APPROVE FINAL CHANGE ORDER FOR THE CITY HALL REMODEL PHASE II PROJECT TO INLAND EMPIRE CONSTRUCTION, INC., IN THE AMOUNT OF $ 2,580. DATE: May 25, 2006 BACKGROUND: On August 24, 2005, a contract was entered into by the City of Colton and Inland Empire Inc. for the City Hall Remodel Phase II Project. This agreement was awarded in the amount of $24,113. The scope of work is inclusive of the following: construction of the wall frames and T -bar ceiling in the City Hall Police Department. On April 18, 2006, the City Council approved Change Order No. 1 to allow for a change to the construction plans, which originally called for wood studs and was changed to call for metal studs; the change order totaled $1,585. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: As part of the City Hall Phase II Remodeling Project, the old Chamber of Commerce Building was annexed into the City Hall building to serve as a mini -gymnasium for Police Department personnel. A change in the original plan and unforeseen changes resulted in a change order to the original contract totaling $2,580.00. At the time when the scope of work was delineated for the contractor all the walls indicated in the plans would be finished with a 5/8 light orange peel texture. The Police Department later requested `wall to post stick -ons' be utilized and a smooth rather than a textured finish be achieved for the interior walls. The contractor has skimmed and pre -coated the requested walls for a smooth finish. Various cleanup work was also completed by the contractor including: drywall lamination to existing block walls, framing to conceal pipe columns, and re -hanging of drywall due to HVAC and other repairs. These changes to the original scope of work total $2,580. Including the Change Order No. 1, $ 1,585, the total contract compensation is $ 28,278.
