AGENDA MEMORANDUM
Meeting Date: November 13, 2006
From: Charlie Weller, Airport Manager
Subject: Change Order #3 with Wagner Construction Company, LLC for the Air Traffic Control Tower
Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of Change Order #3 with Wagner Construction Company, LLC.
Analysis:
The original bids for the Air Traffic Control Tower were greater than the amount budgeted and the amount of the FDOT Grant. The entire project was Value Engineered to reduce costs to meet budget. Staff decided to eliminate painting the outside of the tower and leave the look “concrete0.” Staff now proposes to paint the tower the same color as the Line Service Building for two reasons:
1. It will aesthetically improve the appearance of the structure.
2. Staff determined the porosity of the concrete is such that the tower should be sealed/painted to prevent possible moisture seepage.
When the tower was designed, Dura–Stress was requested to include an opening for an escape ladder that could be attached to allow escape if a fire occurred in one of the lower floors or tower cab. Staff proposes to build and install a metal safety ladder that can be accessed from the catwalk. An escape door already exists that leads from the tower cab to the catwalk around the tower. This is strictly a safety feature.
Cost of Painting: $31,240.00
Cost of Safety Ladder: $13,760.00
Total cost of Change Order No.3: $45,000.00.
Options:
1. Approve Change Order #3 with Wagner Construction Company, LLC
2. Such alternative action as the Commission may deem appropriate
Fiscal Impact:
The total cost of Change Order #3 is $45,000.00. Approval of this change order will require a budget amendment. Funds are available in account number 001-1821-542-6310, which will not be needed due to changes in anticipated FDOT funding. The taxiway and ramp space to Cracker Barrel will not be funded by FDOT, but they will fund the 2nd phase of FBO ramp space. Since the FBO ramp space will cost less than the Cracker Barrel project, general fund proceeds will be available for this change order.
