REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: GRANT M. YATES, CITY MANAGER
DATE: OCTOBER 28, 2014
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF AN APPROPRIATION INCREASE OF $15,000 TO
PROJECT NO. Z40000 DOG PARK FENCING (McVICKER PARK)
Recommendation
Approve an increase of $15,000 to the project contingency appropriation and authorize
the City Manager to approve all change orders up to the total project budget of $41,000.
Background
On September 12, 2014 the City of Lake Elsinore entered into a construction contract
with Valley Cities /Gonzales Fence in the amount of $24,204 with a construction
contingency of $2,420 for chain link fence construction at the existing Dog Park located
at McVicker Park within the City limits.
Discussion
During the course of construction, the City received public comments and requests
regarding the upsizing of the Dog Park proposed perimeter fencing. In response to the
community feedback, staff has identified additional funds that can be used to enlarge the
size of the Dog Park perimeter fencing. Requested additional funds will enable
construction of an additional two hundred fifty six (256) linear feet of fencing, thereby
increasing the originally proposed dog park fenced area by an approximately three
thousand seven hundred forty nine (3,749) square feet.
It is currently estimated that the additional labor and materials will result in change orders
in the range of $12,000 to $15,000. The additional contingency is recommended to
ensure the timely completion of the project.
