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.
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.
The current Change Order/Amendment No. 4 in the amount of $90,953 will be 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.
All items will be incorporated into the current Lee Lewis Construction, Inc. contract for a revised total contract amount of $84,073,135.
This item was taken to the Finance and Government Committee on August 2, 2016 for their review and recommendation for approval.
Financial Consideration
Funding in the amount of $90,953 for PlayGrand landscape clearing and grubbing is available by approving an ordinance transferring and appropriating from the unobligated fund balance in the Capital Lending and Reserve Fund (40290) to the EPIC Capital Projects Fund (320893), WO#01512001-03 (The EPIC Recreation Center) 68540 (Construction). The Capital Lending and Reserve Fund will be reimbursed once the bonds are sold for the PlayGrand project in the Fall of 2016. Action for the reimbursement resolution will be in a subsequent Council Action.
