Change of Scope: The original bid quantity of item # 37 was underestimated by the project consultant, Atkins Engineers. In order to finish out the intersections of Dickson Street and the crossing streets, a change order to this contract is needed. Attached please find Change Order #5, with three alternatives, and the supporting documents containing the description and the breakdown of each option. Recommendations: The Staff recommends approval of one of the following Alternatives: (1)Brick Pavers Alternative Change Order #5A to the existing contract with Township Builders, Inc., for a cost increase in the amount of $208,924.00 (2)Stamped Concrete Alternative Change Order #5B to the existing contract with Township Builders, Inc. in the amount of $152,312.00. (3)Asphalt Surface Alternative Change Order #5C to the existing contract with Township Builders, Inc. in the amount of $18,788.00. Funding: Sales Tax Funds.

The total area for the intersections is 17,400 square feet. The asphalt overlay price is based on the bid price of $50.00 per ton for a 2" overlay. The cost of milling that area is not included in the overall project cost because the intersections had to be cut out to accommodate the 16 inch depth for the pavers and aggregate base. The contractor may argue that his unit price to install asphalt should be more than the bid price for the .street overlay due to the smaller quantity and more difficult installation. The asphalt overlay price is based on milling the old asphalt where necessary and replacing with a two inch overlay. This means that the structural integrity of the intersection would be dependent on the existing material below the proposed overlay. The concrete paver plan required the removal of sixteen inches of material in the intersections and replacement with compacted base and pavers. In our opinion, this new structural system would be better than overlaying the existing matenals.

The concrete paver plan required the removal of sixteen inches of material in the intersections and replacement with compacted base and pavers. In our opinion, this new structural system would be better than overlaying the existing matenals. • The compaction of the two inch overlay against the concrete band will be critical to the success of an asphalt intersection. Otherwise, wheel loads transferring from the concrete band may push or roll the asphalt away from the concrete band. We believe that there will be some loss of pedestrian security if asphalt is used. The visual awareness of the pedestrian area would be much more apparent to vehicle operators if the large intersection were of a different material than the street. The most significant change would be aesthetic. The sense of history, character, and uniqueness from the bnck pavers will be lost if asphalt is used. Brick pavers of concrete will need to be used as the base for the razorback emblem of Arkansas Avenue. I trust this provides the information you requested.

FAYETTEVILLE THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS DEPARTMENTAI. CORRESPONDENCE To: Mayor and City Council From: Hugh Earnest, CAO Date: January 21, 2003 Subject: Dickson Street • Background The City of Fayetteville entered into a contract for design services with Atkins -Benham for the design of the Dickson Street improvements on December 15, 1998. The design, engineering work and plans for this project were completed by Atkins -Benham on May 10, 2001. Then on March 19, 2002 the City entered into a construction contract with Township builders for the implementation of that design of Dickson Street. The time between plan completion and the award was due to a variety of reasons, but primarily due to the right-of-way acquisition process. At this time, a short continuation of the discussion concerning Intersection pavement material and texture will not jeopardize the currently scheduled completion date for this protect. Current Situation As the council well knows, we have had a series of missteps and misunderstandings on this project from its inception. Certainly some of the issues can be attributed to the fact that the work is occurring in an old part of town where records and documentation are at best uneven. However, there have also been errors and mistakes in calculation of quantities that are tied to the work on the project by the engineer of record, Atkins - Benham. The latest issue revolving around intersection improvements is a case in point. While it is true that the council has approved the placement of bricks in the Intersections, we did not have for that initial discussion the wide variance in cost between the different options for the intersections. The council has now been furnished those numbers. In addition to those costs, we have been made aware that there are a number of additional issues relative to curb cuts and driveways that will demand correction At this time, we do not have any estimate of additional costs that might be accrued. • • • Recommendation We are finding ourselves with respect to this project to be in a reactive posture. What we are recommending is that engineer of record, Atkins -Benham, develop a reasonably accurate list with the contractor that will identify all or most of the problems with curb cuts, driveways and any other areas that will need attention that is not in the project plan or are errors in that plan We will then be prepared to present the council with a full picture of this project with all costs including the intersections identified and hopefully all unexpected expenses. This number can then be weighed against the $230,457 remaining in the project contingency as of today. Any work on the intersections will be toward the end of the project and will not harm the project timeline for the currently scheduled completion. The Administration recommends continuing this discussion until engineer of record, Atkins -Benham has completed their review of plans for all omissions and errors. • • Executive Summary CHANGE ORDER NUMBER 5 DOWNTOWN DICKSON ENHANCEMENT PROJECT January 14, 2003 BACKGROUND: The quantity of brick pavers stated in the bid schedule was in error, understating the number of square feet of brick pavers necessary to complete the project, as set forth on the original construction drawings. The Dickson Street intersections that are impacted by this error include: Powerhouse, West, School, Locust/Rollston, St. Charles and East Streets (see attached location map). CURRENT STATUS: The City Council has approved a budget adjustment to fund this cost increase, denying the contract time extension requested by the Contractor. The Contract has not accepted this change order and offers alternatives that vary both in price and contract time. The difference between the alternatives is the street surfacing materials to be installed in the center of the intersections noted above (see typical intersection schematic). The Arkansas Avenue intersection remains brick regardless of the choice due to the installation of the Razorback logo at this location. A summary of the alternatives Is as follows: Option "A" -Brick Paver $208,924.00 60 days Option "B" -Stamped Concrete $152,312.00 25 days Option 'ter -Asphalt Surfacing $ 18,788.00 10 days • Asphalt surfacing offers a cost savings of approximately $190,000.00 and increases contract time by only 10 calendar days. • The second option of stamped concreted surfacing offers a cost savings of approximately $56,000.00 and increases contract time by 25 calendar days. 1 The use of the brick pavers as the intersection surfacing will not offer any contract price savings and requires a contact time extension of 60 calendar days. RECOMMENDATION: The acceptance of Option "C" authorizing the installation of asphaltic concrete surfacing in the intersections is recommended for approval, this change order representing a contract price increase of $18,788.00 and a contract time extension of 10 calendar days.

Box 3573 Fayetteville, Arkansas 72702 501-571-3337 Fax: 571-4297 Memo To: Sid Norbash and Jim Beavers From Bootsie Ackerman CC: Date: January 7, 2003 Re: Dickson Street Intersections Downtown/Dickson Enhancement Pro-ect Inc. I am in receipt of your letter dated December 26, 2002. I have consulted with the DDEP Design Committee leadership and would ask that you please note the following preference of options for treatment of intersections on Dickson Street, as you requested. 1. Brick Pavers The options of stamped concrete and asphalt overlay within the intersection boundaries would be the least desirable options Those option are inconsistent with the aesthetic expectation of both DDEP and the public. We understand the financial constraints involved and are hopeful that the long-term benefit of more attractive materials will be considered.
