BACKGROUND:
Meeting in regular session on May 7, 2015, the Board awarded Contract PD 14-15.047 "3rd and Winthrop Roadway and Drainage Improvements Project" to Principle Properties, Inc. The project involves roadway, sewer services, and drainage improvements on 3rd Street between Winthrop Avenue and Commerce Street, an area which has experienced historical flooding during significant storm events, including during Hurricane Ivan and the May 2005, June 2012, and on September 24, 2013 rain events. Finished floor elevations of several homes in the area are below the pavement of 3rd Street, causing several residents to experience flooding not only in their yards, but also inside their homes. Design plans were initiated on February 14, 2014, before the April 2014 storm event. The design for this project started in February 2014, before the April 2014 storm event.

Change order #1,  in the amount of ($1,008.05), was due to a mistake in the tabulation of the bid.

This additive Change Order #2 request is for $76,800.05. Change Order work includes additions for materials & labor needed to address additional drainage issues. Redeemer Church approached the county after construction on 3rd and Winthrop had commenced to discuss their flooding problems. In response, the County investigated the complaint and had DRMP (Engineer of Record) design a system that would capture stormwater within the county right of way (R/W). The property owner will be responsible for stormwater issues and any connections within the limits of their property. Additional work would install two new inlets and a stormwater pipe system within the county R/W along Commerce Street and another inlet within the county R/W along Winthrop Avenue. To do this work, the contractor will need to remove and replace a fire hydrant, relocate an existing water line, and install new asphalt and a concrete driveway. Approval of this additive Change Order, for $76,800.05, will make the new contract amount $413,529.00.
