DISCUSSION:
On April 12, 1999, the City Council authorized the award of the 1998 -99 Newport Pier
Repairs contract to John S. Meek Company of Wilmington, California. The contract
provided for the repair work to the pier including the replacement of five (5) wood piles.
The contract has now been completed to the satisfaction of the Public Works
Department. A summary of the contract cost is as follows:
Original bid amount: $189,975.00
Actual amount of bid items constructed: 172,709.00
Total amount of change orders: 15,200.00
Final contract cost: $187,909.00
The decrease in the amount of actual bid items constructed over the original bid
amount resulted from a reduced amount of polyethylene pile wrap placed as measured
in the field. The final overall construction cost including change orders was 1.1 % under
the original bid amount.
The following two (2) change orders were issued to complete the project:
A non - compensatory change order provided for a 23 working day time extension due to
unavailability of pile wrap material.
A change order in the amount of $15,200.00 provided for installing two additional piles
at the unit cost. Following removal of the marine growth during construction, these piles
were found to be severely damaged.
