Meeting Called to Order by Smith at 4:30 p.m.
A. Consideration and possible recommendation of a change order to the contract between the City
and H. Deck Construction to increase the scope of the existing contract to include water line
replacement on Church Street at the additional cost of $139,200.00. Glenn Dishong/Jim Briggs
Discussion: Dishong presented the item. The contract that H. Deck has with the City is for the
13th Street Project. That project is a multiple project that includes water and wastewater. The
work that is going on at Church Street is drainage, wastewater, and street project. We would
like to increase the scope of the contract with H. Deck to allow them to replace the water line
on Church Street. The reason why we put this Church Street water line on the 13th Street
Project is because the existing Church Street Project does not have any unit cost for water line
replacement. Because there is no unit cost, the current contractor would have to turn a new bid.
If we had to put this out for bid, with the rising costs of materials we feel that it could cost twice
this amount.
Action: Motion by Young, seconded by Gavurnik to approve the change order to the contract
between the City and H. Deck Construction in the amount of $139,200.00
Approved: 6-0 (Brown Absent)
Motion by Gavurnik seconded by Kostka to adjourn meeting.
Approved: 6-0 (Brown Absent)
