the contract amount by $67,212.00; andWHEREAS, Change Order No. 3 approved by Resolution No. 123823 increased the contract amount by $267,684.98; andWHEREAS, due to the unforeseen location of existing underground utilities and the required location of the new 72” equivalent drain line, it was determined in the field that all of the existing waterlines crossing Carol Sue Avenue and the intersecting side streets should be offset to provide proper clearance to existing underground utilities and the new 72” equivalent drain line, increasing the quantity of waterline fittings, which resulted in an increase to the contract in the amount of $40,021.60; andWHEREAS, to ensure the safety of the general public during the Adonis Parade which travelled on Carol Sue Avenue within the limits of the project, temporary fencing was added along Carol Sue Avenue between Behrman Highway and the Oakwood Canal to secure ongoing areas of construction, resulting in an increase to the contract in the amount of $23,378.00; andWHEREAS, after exposing the existing underground gravity sewer line running adjacent and parallel to the required new 72” equivalent drain pipe, it was determined that due to the actual surrounding soil conditions in combination with the close proximity of the new drain line, the 20” sewer main segment should be replaced with ductile iron in lieu of PVC and the 10” sewer main segment should be replaced with P401 lined ductile iron in lieu of PVC, resulting in an increase to the cost of the contract in the amount of $56,244.00; andWHEREAS, during the installation of the required 72” equivalent drain pipe, it was determined in the field to be in the best interest of Jefferson Parish to install a new, parallel gravity sewer line in lieu of installing multiple drainage conflict structures that would reduce the efficiency of the new drainage line to accommodate existing, conflicting sewer house connections, resulting in an increase to the required bedding material in the amount of 1,109 cubic yards, resulting in an increase to the cost of the contract in the amount of $70,974.08; andWHEREAS, it was determined in the field that the excavated material obtained within the project limits was not suitable for backfill over the new water and sewer line placed within the roadway limits, requiring the addition of approximately 3,562 cubic yards of granular material backfill, resulting in an increase to the cost of the contract in the amount of $54,320.50; andWHEREAS, after construction of the new roadway pavement with new vertical and horizontal geometry to comply with the current design criteria, it was determined in the field to be in the best interest of Jefferson Parish to remove, regrade and replace additional concrete walks and drives to provide positive drainage without the addition of additional subsurface drainage, resulting in an increase to the contract in the amount of $70,444.35; andWHEREAS, it was necessary to adjust forty-seven (47) items of work in order to reflect actual field requirements, which resulted in an increase to the contract in the amount of $54,172.69; andWHEREAS, it was necessary to add five (5) calendar days to the contract time to complete all wok associated with the roadway on Carol Sue Ave; andWHEREAS, the net total of Change Order No. 4 (Final) amounts to an increase in the cost amount of $369,555.22 and represents a 9.70% increase to the original contract amount, and increases the total contract amount from $4,167,928.98 to $4,537,484.20; andWHEREAS, the cumulative total of Change Order No.1, Change Order No. 2 and Change Order No. 3 and Change Order No. 4 (Final) amounts to $729,212.20 and represents an 19.5% increase to the original contract amount; andNOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Jefferson Parish Council, the governing authority of said Parish:SECTION 1.
