File Number: 23-471 This project is not subject to the provisions of the Community Workforce Agreement (CWA) because its cost is below the $1,000,000 threshold. The low bidder, Silman Industries , is a San Leandro based contractor, which complies with the Local Inclusion Policy Ordinance. In adherence to standard practices in the construction industry, Staff has carefully weighed the cost and benefits associated with conducting a thorough site investigation against the potential cost of changes during construction due to unforeseen conditions. As a result, changes to the scope of the contract may occur due to new or unexpected additional items that are essential for the successful completion of the project. To minimize project delays, ensure flexibility to adapt to unforeseen conditions, and deliver a project of the utmost quality, Staff requests that the City Council authorize the City Manager, or her designee to negotiate and approve individual change orders of up to 10% (or $9,658) of the original contract amount. Furthermore, Staff requests the authorization to negotiate and approve cumulative change orders of up to 25% (equivalent to $24,144) of the original contract amount. This allowance within the contract will expedite the project's efficient completion while adhering to the budget and schedule. Current Agency Policies ·Maintain and enhance City’s infrastructures .
