REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Ron Dingman, Parks and Recreation Director
SUBJECT: Approve Resolution 4315 authorizing the City Manager to sign Change
Order #2 for the relocation of the traffic signal pull box at Ferguson and
Huffine and elimination of Additive Alternative #1, construction of a
pathway through the MSU Park at 11th and College.
MEETING DATE: May 16, 2011
AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Consent
RECOMMENDATION: Approve Resolution 4315 authorizing the City Manger to sign
Change Order #2 in the amount of -$11,750.00, (City of Bozeman
savings), for the College/Huffine CTEP Pathway project.
BACKGROUND: During the construction of the shared use pathway, the contractor
discovered a traffic signal pull box at the intersection of Ferguson and Huffine that was buried
and previously unidentified by the Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) during
preconstruction review.
ADA accessible curbs and approaches are to be installed at this intersection as part of the
pathway project. Engineers from Robert Peccia and Associates (RPA), Keith Duneman,
construction contractor, City engineers, City Sign and Signal staff, Parks and Recreation
Director, and representatives from MDT met on site to assess the problem. It was determined
that the pull box needed to be relocated to avoid being run over by traffic and to prevent water
from running into it.
With construction of the new accessible curbs, the pull box, in its present location, would be in
the street. It is necessary to move the pull box back behind the curb in order to keep it out of the
line of vehicle traffic and drainage.
UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None at this time.
ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission.

FISCAL EFFECTS: .The original contract for the construction of the College/Huffine
CTEP Pathway included reconstruction of the walkway through the MSU Park at the corner of
11th and College at a cost of $18,950.00. MSU has decided that they would rather keep the
walkway the size that it is currently and so this has been eliminated from the project.
The bid for relocation of the pull box is $7,200.00. As a result of the elimination of the MSU
Park pathway, Additive Alternative #1, there is a reduction in the project cost of $18,950.00
resulting in a savings of $11,750.00 after paying $7,200.00 for the pull box relocation.
