The major reason for the overall cost reduction is that more erosion control block was estimated than was actually needed. As construction
progressed, it was determined that the quantity of block could be reduced by approximately 30% compared to what was originally estimated in the
initial bid package. The overestimation had not been identified at the time Change Order No. 1 was requested.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current capital budget, as previously appropriated, in the Stormwater Capital
Projects Fund for the Loving Avenue Channel & Culver project to support the approval of the above recommendation and execution of the change
order. Prior to any expenditure being incurred, the Transportation and Public Works Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of
funds.
