RE:

Approving Change Order No. 1 to Contract No. 17-03- Transmission

& Distribution Line Maintenance, Northern Powerline Constructors At its meeting of May 18, 2017, the City Council adopted a motion accepting the bid of Chatham Electric in the amount of $57,842.76 per week plus $6 ,832.50 for mobilization/demobilization for Contract No. 17-03, Transmission & Distribution Line Maintenance. The total contract amount was for $385,000. Attached for City Council review is Change Order No. 1 to Contract No. 17-03, which extends the completion date from September 30 to October 31, 2017. The rationale for the change is detailed in Electric Operations Manager Mark Adams' transmittal memorandum and requires no elaboration on the part of my office. I concur with the Electric Operations Manager's recommendation. It should be noted that since the date of the contract award, Northern Powerline Constructors has acquired Chatham Electric. Mr. Adams and Electric Division Manager Andy Donato will be attending the City Council meeting of September 7, 2017, in order to address any questions and/or concerns that Councilmembers may have. A motion has been prepared for City Council consideration.

RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council adopt the motion approving Change Order No. 1 to Contract No. 17-03, Transmission & Distribution Line Maintenance, between the City and Northern Powerline Constructors extending the contract completion date to October 31, 2017; and directing the General Manager to execute the change order on behalf of the City Council.

Recommended Motion: I move the City Council approve Change Order No. 1 to Contract No. 17-03, Transmission & Distribution Line Maintenance, between the City and Northern Powerline Constructors extending the contract completion date to October 31 , 2017; and direct the General Manager to execute the change order on behalf of the City Council.

FROM:

Mark Adams, Electric Operations Manager

DATE:

August 31 , 2017

SUBJECT:

Request Authorization for Change Order 1 to Contract No. 17-03, Transmission & Distribution Line Maintenance

The Electric Division requests approval for a zero dollar ($0.00) change order to adjust the contract period/completion date for Contract 17-03 Transmission & Distribution Line Maintenance, with Northern Powerline Constructors, from September 30, 2017 to October 31, 2017. In addition to the date of award of 17-03, commencement of this project was delayed due to Northern Powerline Constructors (NPC) purchasing Chatham Electric, who the contract was originally awarded to. A September 30111 completion date will be marginal for NPC to fully complete this contract. Pushing completion date to October 31th should allow NPC's crew to complete the work while accounting for the October weather. The total contract amount will remain $385,000. Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council authorize Change Order No. 1 to Contract No. 17-03, Transmission & Distribution Line Maintenance, to Northern Powerline Constructors, changing the completion date to October 31, 2017. cc: Andrew Donato, Electric Division Manager
