PURPOSE:
To approve Change Order No. 6 to the Construction Contract for the re-paving the Grand Island Park Path as part of the Island Path Re-Pave Project in accordance with City Code Section 3.10.010.2 and Title 34 Procurement of the Arizona Revised Statutes.
BACKGROUND:
On September 20, 2023, sealed bids were opened for the Island Re-Pave Project and Pioneer Earth Movers, Inc., was the apparent low bidder coming in at $1,572,862. The City Council awarded the construction contract on October 10, 2023. The project is nearing completion and has available funds for additional path paving. Parks, Facilities Maintenance and Public Works are requesting to apply available funds towards paving existing pathways traversing north to south through the Grand Island Park. The contract increase is in the amount of $228,350.70 with a Notice to Proceed anticipated for July 1, 2024, with a contract calendar day increase of 90 days with all work complete by September 29, 2024. Approval of this proposed Change Order No. 6 will bring the total project cost to $1,801,212.70.
COMMUNITY IMPACT:
The Island Path is an ever increasingly utilized 3.5 mile relatively level paved pathway for bikes and pedestrians. This additional work will provide more options for pathway users to access the pathway system within the Grand Island Estates Park and provide additional connectivity through the Grand Island Estates.
FISCAL IMPACT:
ARPA Funds allocated and available in the proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 budget in the amount of $228,350.70.
