COUNCIL MEETING DATE: September 9, 2024
TO: President Mark Aliff and Members of City Council
CC: Mayor Heather Graham
VIA: Marisa Stoller, City Clerk
FROM: Andrew Hayes, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION APPROVING CONTRACT AMENDMENT NO. 1 IN THE
AMOUNT OF $298,114.97 TO PYRAMID CONSTRUCTION, INC., FOR
PROJECT NO. 24-030, ASPHALT AND UTILITY IMPROVEMENTS
DILLON DRIVE (RR BRIDGE TO EAGLERIDGE BOULEVARD), AND
AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASING AGENT TO EXECUTE SAME
SUMMARY:
This Resolution approves Contract Amendment No. 1 in the amount of $298,114.97 to
Pyramid Construction, Inc., for Project 24-030, Asphalt and Utility Improvements
Dillon Drive (RR Bridge to Eagleridge Boulevard).
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
Resolution 15551, dated March 25, 2024, awarded a Construction Contract, in the
amount of $769,382.60, to Pyramid Construction, Inc., and set forth $153,757.40 for
contingencies and additional work, for Project No. 24-030, Asphalt and Utility
Improvements Dillon Drive (RR Bridge to Eagleridge Boulevard).
BACKGROUND:
The original project, awarded to Pyramid Construction, Inc., consisted of asphalt mill
and overlay, crack repair and sanitary sewer large main removal and replacement on
Dillon Drive from the north side of existing RR Bridge to the future roundabout of
Eagleridge Boulevard and Dillon Drive. Contract Amendment No. 1 reflects the cost to
repair the wastewater main line which also affected the unknown location of the
stormwater main line. The cost of the additional work exceeds the threshold for
administrative approval of a change order and a contract amendment will be required to
award and complete the additional work.
This Resolution approves an amendment to increase the contract award amount
previously awarded to Pyramid Construction, Inc.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
Funding in the amount of $168,024.67, for the wastewater portion of the work, will be
paid from Project Account WWAN02, Annual Large Main Rehabilitation
Funding in the amount of $130,090.30, for the stormwater portion of the work, will be
paid from Project Account SWAN03, Point Repairs & Pipe Cleaning
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
None.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
None.
ALTERNATIVES:
Denial of this Resolution would cancel the additional work necessary to complete the
project.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Resolution.
