Due to lack of accurate as-built <br />information, the existing asphalt pavement was found to be thicker than <br />expected and the existing underground utilities were at different <br />locations different than those shown in the old records. As a result, <br />actual quantities of excavation, asphalt concrete and some other related <br />work items are higher than the engineer's estimate. <br /> <br />In addition, the contractor spent more time and effort to protect or <br />relocate the existing utilities in order to install the water main. <br />Given these circumstances, staff recommends an increase in the contract <br />with All American Asphalt by an estimated amount of $185,000 to cover the <br />additional costs. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br /> <br />The estimated increase of the contract is $185,000 for a total estimated <br />amount of $1,834,443. Funds are available in the Measure M Street <br /> <br />23A-1 <br />
