<br />installing parkways, raised median landscaping, storm drains, protected bike lanes, sound
<br />walls, street lights, and traffic signals.
<br />Lonerock, Inc. has completed underground utilities installation and the southern portion
<br />of the Warner Avenue segment. However, due to a combination of cost escalation, labor
<br />and market pricing steadily rising, and executed and anticipated change orders, costs for
<br />Warner Avenue Improvements will surpass the $1,155,145 contingency identified for this
<br />portion of the work (Exhibit 3). Additional contingency will also be needed for future
<br />potential unforeseen work as the project progresses to completion.
<br />The recommended action will increase the project contingency by an additional
<br />$1,700,000 thereby increasing the total estimated construction delivery cost to
<br />$14,755,867 as indicated in the Revised Cost Analysis (Exhibit 4) and as summarized in
<br />the table below:
