Summary:
Change Order No. 1 (final) increases the Board of County Commissioners (Board) approved expenditure by $28,090.00, accepts the contract as complete and authorizes final payment. The increase in expenditure is due to additional fill material required to backfill the clear well in the old water treatment plant. Substantial completion for this project was achieved on July 20, 2017; final completion was accepted on November 17, 2017. The time between substantial and final completion accounts for time necessary to complete walk-through inspections with project stakeholders, punch list items and final testing. As part of this change order, the Agreement term is increased by one hundred eleven (111) calendar days.
