<br />REGULAR MEETING AUGUST 4. 1997
<br />Upon a motion made by Mr. Caldwell, seconded by Mr. Littrell and carried, the above bids were
<br />referred to the Division of Engineering for review and recommendation.
<br />APPROVE CHANGE ORDER - CENTURY CENTER CONDUIT - PROJECT NO. 97-48
<br />Mr. Caldwell advised that Mr. Toy Villa, Public Construction Manager, has submitted Change Order
<br />No. 1 on behalf of Direct Line Communications, Post Office Box 418, Granger, Indiana indicating
<br />that the Contract amount be increased $647.53 for a new Contract sum including this Change Order
<br />in the amount of $1,550.25. It was noted that the Change Order represents a total change of 41.77%.
<br />Direct Line Communications is core boring through retaining walls that serve as a barrier between
<br />the street and the river. At the beginning of the project, both contractor and the City assumed the
<br />retaining wall at Century Center was only six (6) inches thick, and the price of the project was set
<br />accordingly. When the contractor began boring through the wall, they realized the wall was twelve
<br />inches (12") thick. Additionally, when the contractor began excavating next to the existing traffic
<br />handhole, they encountered two (2) twelve inch (12") thick concrete walls. The contractor had to
<br />core bore through both walls in order to run the new conduit into the existing traffic handhole. The
<br />thicker retaining walls necessitated twice as much work, increasing the project's price accordingly.
<br />This change order can be approved as permissible under IC36-1-12-18. Upon a motion made by Mr.
<br />Caldwell, seconded by Mr. Littrell and carried, the Change Order was approved.

<br />cost of $14,500, plus addition services and costs, as depicted in the quotation sheet as submitted.
