M.1. Consider for Approval for Alternative Education High School Project: (1) Rodan Builders, Inc. Proposed Change Order No. 4 and Budget Augmentation and (2) Enviroplex Inc. Proposed Change Order No. 2
Speaker:
Elizabeth McManus
Recommended Motion:

Approve proposed Rodan Builders, Inc. proposed Change Order No. 4 and budget augmentation of the amount of $1,000,000 for the GMP lease-leaseback contract and Enviroplex Inc. proposed Change Order No. 2 in the amount of $174,226 for the Design-Build contract.

 

Quick Summary / Abstract:

The current budget for the Alternative Education High School project is $24,375,881 not including property cost. There are two components to the Project budget: (1) the Guaranteed Maximum Price lease-leaseback contract with Rodan Builders, Inc. for the construction of the Project in the current amount of $10,458,947, inclusive of a remaining contingency in the amount of $78,918 and (2) the Design-Build contract with Enviroplex, Inc. for the installation of modular buildings at the Project in the current amount of $9,573,723. 

Rodan Builders Inc. proposed Change Order No. 4 is in the amount of $606,333 and is based on an unforeseen condition/oversight and District requested changes. Enviroplex Inc. proposed Change Order No. 2 is in the amount of $174,226 and is based on DSA jurisdictional requirements and District requested changes. Greystone West Company, the District’s construction management firm, has reviewed and evaluated the proposed change orders and recommends approvals.  Attached are Greystone West Company’s July 7, 2020 letters of recommendation for each proposed change order request.

Based on Greystone West Company’s recommendations, if the Board of Trustees approves Rodan Builders Inc. Change Order No. 4, staff recommends the Project budget for the GMP lease-leaseback contract be augmented in the amount of $1,000,000, which would increase the GMP lease-leaseback budget from $10,458,947 to $11,458,947.  This budget augmentation would fund Change Order No. 4 and also create a Project contingency budget in the amount of $393,667. 

If the Board approves Enviroplex Inc. proposed Change Order No. 2 in the amount of $174,226, the Design-Build contract budget would be increased from $9,573,723 to $9,747,949.

 

Financial Impact:

The Project is funded by Fund 21-Measure O bonds. If the board of Trustees approves Rodan Builders Inc. Change Order No. 4 and the budget augmentation of $1,000,000 and Enviroplex Inc. Change Order No. 2 in the amount of $174,226 the overall Project budget will be increased from $23,537,500 to $24,711.726.
