Analysis

On December 9, 2014 the City Council awarded the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) contract to Lee Lewis Construction, Inc. for pre-construction services in the amount of $20,000.  This award provided the CMAR services including development of project estimates, preliminary construction schedules, value engineering and constructability review during the Design Phase. 

 

The current Change Order/Amendment No. 7 in the amount of $98,526 is divided as follows: 1. $77,966 is for additional work regarding a conflict between the sanitary and storm drains at Esplanade; 2. $13,729 for additional scope of work regarding the upsizing of the transformers, feeder and panels for the Arkansas Lane/Epic Place video sign; 3. $6,831 for Arkansas Lane/Epic Place video sign electrical coordination revisions.

 

Change Order/Amendment No. 1 in the amount of $1,100,000 was approved by City Council on November 3, 2015 (15-5108) allowing for the pre-purchase of aluminum materials that would be utilized in the construction of the OpenAire retractable roof system for the EPIC Waters portion of the project.

 

Change Order/Amendment No. 2 in the amount of $6,794,652.49 was approved by City Council on March 3, 2016 to get early phase construction activities underway.  The elements included in Change Order No. 2 covered the direct subcontract costs for dirt and site work ($2,217,205.10), underground site utilities installation work ($2,253,997.20), design and fabrication of confirmed water park feature rides to allow for their timely installation ($1,412,117.40), and associated CMAR costs for General Conditions ($650,000) and Insurance and Fees ($261,332.79) for a total approved amount of $6,794,652.49.

 

Change Order/Amendment No. 3 in the amount of $76,067,529 was approved by City Council May 3, 2016 (16-5400) was comprised of three components:  1. $70,142,492 for the balance of the EPIC Water Park construction 2. $650,000 for the walking trail restroom facility, and 3. $5,275,037 for Waterwood/Epic Place previously approved roadway and utilities.

 

Change Order/Amendment No. 4 in the amount of $90,953 was approved by City Council August 2, 2016 (16-5873) was for landscape grading and grubbing for the EPIC PlayGrand Adventures.  Cost savings associated with EPIC Waters will be possible due to EPIC PlayGrand Adventures receiving excavated soil from the basement construction of EPIC Waters versus paying to haul off-site. Funding for the complete EPIC PlayGrand will be from the Sports Corp in the amount of a $2,000,000 one time donation. A resolution on the current council will reimburse the Capital Lending and Reserve Fund after the donation.
