BRADY, CITY MANAGER DATE: January 24, 2012 SUBJECT: CHANGE ORDER TO REYES CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO PERFORM EARTHWORK FOR WETLANDS ENHANCEMENT GRANT PROJECT Background The Lake Elsinore /San Jacinto Watersheds Authority (LESJWA) received a Proposition -40 Grant for a Wetlands Enhancement Project to promote an ecological approach to restoring the beneficial uses of Lake Elsinore. The City, as the lead agency for LESJWA on this grant project, desires to enhance a portion of the existing 356 acre Back -basin mitigation wetlands to expand the area of aquatic vegetation. It's known that aquatic vegetation provides many water quality and wildlife benefits by utilizing nutrients and providing shelter for zooplankton that graze upon single - celled algae. In addition, aquatic vegetation provides habitat and forage for a wide array of fish and wildlife. The project consists of excavating two new channels and one open water small pond on the existing large Island -Ii, then utilizing the excavated material to form shallow water islands in existing Pond -I. Discussion A major portion of the construction for the Prop -40 Grant consists of "earthwork ". City Staff desires to piggyback upon the existing contract with the successful bidder of the Boat Launch Facility Project to perform the earthwork for the Prop -40 Grant Project based upon the following reasons: • Reyes Construction was the lowest responsible bidder for similar earthwork, • Cost savings realized by City from previous mobilization of equipment by Reyes Construction to Back -basin borrow site, which is in close proximity to the Wetlands Project site, • City Staff time and money savings by piggy - backing on previous public bid process, • Minor "Change Order" to existing contract for additional "earthwork ". • Time is of the essence, as the grant expires at the end of March 2012; however, a time extension may be granted. AGENDA ITEM NO. 6 Page 1 of 6 Change Order for Earthwork January 24, 2012 Page 2 of 2 Fiscal Impact Approval of this item will result in a Change Order in the amount of $300,000. This expenditure is budgeted under the City's CIP budget for Project #4273 and is reimbursable from the State Proposition -40 Grant. The grant balance is approximately $380,000. Recommendation Authorize a Change Order in an amount not to exceed $300,000. Approved by: Pat Kilroy, Director -6-1- ` 1 Lake, Parks & Recreation Department Approved by: Robert A.
