<br /> <br />To: Board of Public Works <br />From: Caitlin Wyant; Project Engineer <br />Subject: PN 119-047 CO#2 <br />Date: July 14, 2026 <br /> <br /> <br />Board members, <br /> <br />The change order before you today is to account for unforeseen circumstances in the Dylan Drive <br />Lighting Improvements project (#119-047). On Monday 6/1/2026, Michiana Contracting notified <br />Engineering that crews had observed new fixtures on the north portion of Dylan Dr turning on and <br />off intermittently. Upon investigation, it was discovered that circuit 1 wires underground were <br />burnt and melted in multiple places and waterproof splices underground had been submerged in <br />water, leading to failure (photos enclosed). At this time, Engineering directed Michiana <br />Contracting to begin writing up a change order for staff consideration <br /> <br />As the intent of this project was to upgrade the lights along Dylan Drive, this intent would not be <br />properly fulfilled without the installation of new wire and fuses for these lights. <br /> <br />Funding is available via Light Up South Bend 2024 & 2025 and River West TIF. <br /> <br />Best, <br /> <br />Caitlin Wyant <br />Project Engineer <br />
