<br />Mr. Carl P. Littrell, City Engineer, advised the Board that on July 16, 2001, bids were received and

<br />APPROVE CHANGE ORDER - REMOVAL OF UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANKS -
<br />PUBLIC WORKS SERVICE CENTER - WARNER AND SONS - PROJECT NO 101-050
<br />Mr. Gilot advised that Mr. Carl Littrell, City Engineer, has submitted Change Order No. 1 on behalf
<br />of Warner and Sons, Post Office Box 87, Elkhart, Indiana, indicating that the Contract amount be
<br />increased $13,369.49 for a new Contract sum including this Change Order in the amount of
<br />$28,834.49. Mr. Littrell noted that the original contract work was for a large underground fuel oil
<br />storage tank uncovered by the contractor on the Public Works Service Center site. The consultant
<br />originally estimated the size of this tank at 6,000 gallons, but upon excavation by Warner and Sons,
<br />it was discovered to be twice as large. Warner and Sons has submitted an additional cost of
<br />$8,014.00 for removal of this tank. Before Warner and Sons began work on the removal of the tank,
<br />the excavator encountered two more 4,000 gallon tanks. Warner and Sons submitted a cost of
<br />$5,355.49 for the removal of these two additional tanks. This adjustment is necessary for the removal
<br />of two additional 4,000 gallon tanks and one 12,000 gallon tank. The additional cost for these
<br />removals is fair and reasonable. The presence of these tanks was not reasonably foreseeable.
<br />Therefore, according to the Deputy City Attorney, the cost associated with their removal are not
<br />subject to the 20% rule set forth in I.C. 36-1-12-19(d). Upon a motion made by Mr. Inks, seconded
<br />by Mr. Gilot and carried, the Change Order was approved.
