A-200 (Rev. 7/03)
Re: Resolution of the City Council of National City approving Change Order Number
Two with MJC Construction to exclude the Additive Alternatives A4 and A5
(Central Boardwalk and Connections) from the original contract and add the
north/south (new aligmnent) boardwalk based on Time and Material (T&M) method
with no change in the cost for the Paradise Creek Education Park Project
On August 16, 2004, the City Council by Resolution Number 2005-179 awarded a
contract to MJC Construction in the amount of $1,008,900 for the construction of the first
phase of the Paradise Creek Education Park.
On September 19, 2005, the construction of the project began.
On December 20, 2005, the City Council approved the Change Order Number One in the
not to exceed amount of $150,000 for the removal and disposal of contaminated soils
from the site.
During the installation of the raised boardwalks and pile driving along the west side of
Paradise Creek, the Contractor encountered layers/pieces of hard material at various
design depths and locations. These new conditions made the excavation very difficult and
time consuming, and resulted in suspension of the pile setting construction activities. The
Contractor had to find the drillable spots by trial and error. This area used to be a
dumpsite and considered to be an environmentally sensitive site. These conditions were
reviewed and checked against the existing soils report. The findings were that the
material testing included only random sampling spots and did not address the soils
condition at various depths within the construction area.
After having a number of meetings with the Contractor, the City and the Contractor came
to a conclusion that the Additive Alternatives A4 and AS (Central Boardwalk and
Connections) be excluded from the original contract and the work be completed with a
new boardwalk alignment based on Time and Materials (T&M). Due to the shift in the
original alignment of the boardwalks and piling shaft locations, the central boardwalk and
connections (Additive Alternates, A4 and A5) were adjusted accordingly and designated
by the new alignments as the north/south (260 ft) and east/west (160 ft) boardwalk.
On April 4, 2006, the Contractor started the T&M work, however, the work had to be
suspended on August 7, 2006 in order to avoid a cost overrun. Currently, the seventy five
percent (75%) of the work has been completed on the north/south boardwalk. Based on
the staff's negotiation with the Contractor, it is recommended to complete the work as
outlined by the following two change orders:
• Change Order Number Two (attached) will exclude the Additive Alternatives
A4 and A5 (Central Boardwalk and Connections) from the original contract in the
amount of $315,000 (Lump Sum) and add the installation of the north/south (new
alignment) boardwalk based on Time and Material (T&M) method in a not to
exceed amount of $315,000.
alignment) boardwalk based on Time and Material (T&M) method in a not to
exceed amount of $3.15,000.
• The Change Order Number Three will add the east/west (new Alignment)
boardwalk which has been presented to the City Council as a separate item at
tonight's meeting agenda.
In order to complete the north/south boardwalk some of the actual improvements design
will be deviated from the original plans. The main deviation will be the alignment of the
boardwalk and locations of the piling shafts that will be changed to avoid the conflict
with the hard subsurface material. Another major deviation will be removing the
installation of the red brass railing and replacing it with a galvanized steel cable rail. The
red brass railing can be very attractive target for vandalizing and costly for maintenance.
The changes will reduce the cost and complete the project with the suitable alternate
improvements.
The current total contract amount will remain unchanged at $1,158,900 (Original Bid and
Change Order Number One).
