<br />Bituminous costs also contributed to the incrcasc in roadway costs. Engineering costs for the
<br />project are estimated at $393,310, resulting in a total projcct cost of $2,201 ,894.32.
<br />
<br />We have found a number of areas where we can reduce the scope without compromising the
<br />integrity of the project. In addition to thcsc rcductions, we identified a few othcr line items that
<br />have the potential for reductions, however, we recommcnd that we manage these quantities
<br />through construction observation. As a result, we propose the following reductions in the
<br />contract quantities,
<br />
<br />. We found that the common excavation quantity includcd in the bid had not been adjusted to
<br />reflect our pavement cross section, This quantity can be reduced for a total roadway cost
<br />reduction of$12,269.40 and reduce the engineering cost by $2,576.57.
<br />. We were able to reduce the storm scwer costs through a reduction of 12" pipe quantity,
<br />switching from arch pipe to round pipe and eliminating the construction of a new outlet to
<br />Lake Johamla from the Island Beach Club wetlaJ1d. We havc televised the existing pipe
<br />outlet and modeled the flow, The results of this investigation indicate that there is no need
<br />to replace this pipe, since it is in good stmctural shape and has adequate capacity, These
<br />quantities can bc reduccd for a total storm sewcr cost reduction of $45,422.46 and reduce the
<br />cngineering cost by $9,538.72.
<br />. We reevaluated the scope of the watelllain work on this project and determined that we .
<br />could reduce the number of hydrants aJ1d valves being replaced. We are still proposing to
<br />replace the watermain on Arden Place, the line that has had a number of breaks over the
<br />years. However, we have inventoried the condition of the hydrants and valves on the rest of
<br />the project and detennined that they all do not need replacing at this timc. These qUaJ1tities
<br />can be reduced for a total watcrmain cost reduction of $60,998 and reduce the engineering
<br />cost by $12,809.58.
<br />
<br />W c are working with properly owners on utility easemcnt acquisition and do not anticipate any
<br />additional costs for these easements. The City's pOrlion of the project costs are currently
<br />budgeted from the General Capital Fund and Utility Enterprise Funds (sanitary sewer, stOlll
<br />sewer and watemJain funds), The following shows a breakdown and comparison of feasibility
<br />estimates, engineer's estimatc bascd on thc final plans, the low bid, and the reviscd bid.
<br />Engineering costs arc included in the total amounts.
