Gilbert, Director of Public Works DATE: September 9, 1996 (CC Meeting: 9- 11 -96) SUBJECT: Consider Approval of an Increase to the Project Cost and a Change to the FY 1996/97 Budget for a Project to Widen Moorpark Avenue to Facilitate Right Turn Traffic from Moorpark Avenue to Poindexter Avenue On June 5, 1996, the City Council awarded a contract for the subject project. On September 4, 1996, the City Council approved a change to the budget for the project to re- appropriate and re- budget unexpended monies from last Fiscal Year and to fund certain additional costs related to the relocation of the conduits and wiring for the traffic signal interconnect and railroad preemptive circuit. g • VW The westerly relocation of the curb and gutter is not compatible with the slope and elevation of the existing pavement adjacent to the old curb and gutter. It is necessary, therefore, to remove and replace an additional four feet (41) wide strip of pavement to reduce the slope on the west side of the street to match the elevation of the lip of the new gutter. In hindsight one could say that this factor, and these costs, should have been anticipated and included in the project design and project construction cost estimate. However, in an effort to control and minimize design costs, the design effort did not include the level of surveying required to predict this problem and design in a solution. It should be pointed out that, if the design effort had identified this problem and the design had included this required work, the scope and cost of construction would have included these additional costs. There is, therefore, no increase in the work and cost required to construct this project. In order to avoid a delay which could prevent the work being completed prior to the Country Days Parade, the City Manager approved the change order for this required additional work. pndx.r2 Poindexter Right Turn Lane: C.O. #2 September 1996 Page 2 B.
