As you are aware, the Contractor for the project is Valley Paving, Inc. The total <br />amount earned by the Contractor on this partial pay estimate is $3,843,479.68. <br />Subtracting 5% retainage of $192,173.98 and previous payments in the amount of <br />$3,525,742.90, the amount due the Contractor is $125,562.80. <br /> <br />Please also find attached Change Order Number 3. As part of the construction project <br />the Contractor was required to complete some maintenance within the existing rain <br />water garden at Valentine Park. As part of this work it was determined that the garden <br />was not filtrating water as quickly as desired and so another segment of drain tile was <br />added to augment the existing tile that has been in place since the installation of the <br />garden. It was also determined that the compost material needed to be replaced on a <br />portion of the garden to improve the infiltration characteristics of the soil. The change <br />order is in the amount of $31,407.08. The total project cost is still lower than the bid <br />amount. <br /> <br />This pay estimate includes payment for final quantities from work completed last year. <br />There will be some additional quantities for restoration work that is currently being <br />completed this spring. We have inspected the work performed by Valley Paving, Inc. <br />and find it to be in compliance with the plans, specifications, and contract documents. <br />Therefore we would recommend approval of Partial Pay Estimate No. 7 in the amount of <br />$125,562.80. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding this issue please feel free to call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />ELFERING & ASSOCIATES <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Kristie Elfering, P.E. <br />Project Engineer <br /> <br />cc: John Anderson, Interim Public Works Director
