RESOLUTION APPROVING CHANGE ORDER (TASK ORDER 4.3) TO NEW WATER
TREATMENT PLANT ENGINEERING SERVICES AGREEMENT
FOR THE CITY OF AMES
WHEREAS, on August 28, 2012, the Council approved a professional services agreement
with FOX Engineering of Ames for the final detailed design of the new water treatment plant,
including bidding and construction phase services; and,
WHEREAS, a portion of the construction phase services is for a resident project
representative (RPR) who watches the construction and reports any deviations from the contract
documents; and,
WHEREAS, the water plant construction project is made up of two contracts—Contract 1 is
the pipeline construction, and Contract 2 is the water treatment plant construction project, and each
contract has separate RPR services; and,
WHEREAS, Contract 1 RPR services are provided under Task Order 4.3 with the
consultants; and,
WHEREAS, the construction of the pipeline took longer than expected and work exceeded
the substantial completion date; and,
WHEREAS, additional RPR and construction administration services were needed to ensure
the project was completed according to contract requirements beyond the previously amended
contract; and,
WHEREAS, the total additional cost for these services is $15,491.82; and,
WHEREAS, close-out of the construction contract is proceeding towards mediation, in large
part due to the City's out-of-pocket expenses for the project running longer than the contract
allowed, and it is staff s intention to recover the cost for additional professional services from the
contractor.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Ames, Iowa,
