BACKGROUND: Work on the combined Fire Station #3 and County 911 Emergency Communications Center is still progressing ahead of schedule. Two additional change orders have been submitted to date for approval. The proposed changes are detailed below. Change Order #005 is in the amount of $10,499.00. This change addresses the roof flashing details and other roofing flashing. The wall and roof interfaces at a number of locations were changed in order to provide a more weather tight seal. The changes will also make it easier in the future to reroof the building because of the way the flashing mates with the brick walls and the asphalt shingles. 35 The irrigation connection line was increased in size in order to provide additional water flow. The increase flow will increase the efficiency of the irrigation system. During this winter phase of construction it was called out that there was some condensation about the apparatus bay doors where the metal was in direct contact with both the inside and the outside of the building. Insulation was added to provide a thermal break and alleviate the condensation. The change reflects a credit for some changes in flooring materials. Change Order #006 is in the amount of $4,763.00. The bulk of this change was for electrical related additions. There is a credit for some taping and soffit framing on the structural panels in the roof. At the request of the IT Department an exhaust fan was added in the room containing the equipment rack. The fan will be on a thermostat so that it can keep the equipment cool. Some doors were added to the upper storage cabinets in the dorm rooms. These were originally shown as open shelves. FISCAL EFFECTS: These two changes will be assessed against the contingency fund for the project. The contingency for the project is $134,461.00. With all the changes listed to date the contingency balance will be $95,471.00. ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission.
