FROM: Himanshu H. Mehta, PE, Managing Director, Solid Waste Disposal District
DATE: May 7, 2025
SUBJECT: Amendment No. 1 to Work Order No. 2 to Jones Edmunds for 74th Avenue SW Widening Project
__________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
On September 10, 2024, the Solid Waste Disposal District (SWDD) approved Work Order No. 2 for $174,920 to Jones Edmunds and Associates, Inc. (Jones Edmunds) to provide engineering design, permitting, and bidding services for widening of the landfill entrance as well as a dedicated right turn lane on 74th Avenue SW to optimize the efficiency of the upcoming automated scale system.
The purpose of this agenda is to request a change order to cover cost for additional off-site survey/data collection.
ANALYSIS
The scope of work included survey/data collection in the amount of $18,000. However, staff have requested survey/data collection for an additional 800 feet, which has conversely required additional effort and cost from Jones Edmunds. Jones Edmunds has proposed to utilize Masteller, Moler & Taylor for the additional survey work and is requesting a change order in the amount of $6,455 to cover the additional work. Staff supports the need for additional work and the accompanying change order which would increase the total project cost to $181,375.
BUDGETARY IMPACT
Funding, in the amount of $6,455, for Amendment No. 1 to Work Order No. 2 for the 74th Avenue SW Widening Project is budgeted and available in the SWDD/WIP/74th Ave Turn Lane, Gate & Cameras account, number 411-169000-23042, which is funded from SWDD assessments and user fees.
