WHEREAS, this program provides finding to enhance the physical appearance and services
at the Municipal Cemetery, and this project replaced the existing asphalt surface along the northern

WHEREAS, on April 25, 2017, the City Council awarded the project to Manatt's, Inc., of
Brooklyn, Iowa, in the amount of$184,038.30; and,

(or lack thereof in certain locations) resulted in the need for much more asphalt base repair than was
originally planned; and,

resulted in 18%of the base needing repair; and,
WHEREAS, Change Order No. 1, which is the balancing change order, is in the amount of
$45,765, to cover the additional cost of the base repair; and,
WHEREAS, this will bring the overall project costs to $229,803.30; and,

unallocated balance in unobligated General Obligation Bonds proceeds.
