UYAJ~~@~ffi~@)01J~ '. ~cttL 3:l~ ,v,14' CITY OF SPRINGFIELD April 29, 1982 TO: Steve Burkett, City Manager , / FROM: 'Lorne Pleger, Senior Plans Examiner SUBJECT: Project Costs For Remodel of The Former City Library, Project No, L820049 Except for a few minor items which the General Contractor intends to complete this week, the remodel project is now completed. The intent of this memo is to summarize the total project costs, and to recommend items to be considered for possible cost negotiations with the tenant. I have included in this memo, all items discussed in my prior memo dated April 12, 1982, as well as items which have occured since that memo was written. During the course of construction, 39 Change Order items were approved by myself as Project Architect, and, Ron Clark, representing the City as the Building Owner, ~lany of these Change Order items were either initiated by me, or by the General Contractor, Bob Green as errors, omissions or design modifications were encountered during construc- tion. A number of Change Orders however, are a result of changes or additions requested by the tenant after the project was under construction. For your consideration in pos- sible cost negotiations with the lease tenant, I have listed these items as follows: 1) Change Order #5, the installation of an air conditioning system for the computer room number 145, resulted from the tenant not 'knowing anything relative to the computers specific needs at the time the project was being designed and bid, Once the computer had been selected and its specific needs mailed to the Project Archi- tect, the contract for the remodel had already been awarded. The result was'the addition of a roof mounted air conditioning system, capable of supplying the com- ,puters cooling needs, which added $3,051.48 to the Contract Sum. 2) The computer printer, for the above mentioned computer, is a primary source of noise. The computer supplier recommended that the computer room be sound insula- ted, Change Order #7, which required the installation of sound insulation to com- puter room #14S, resulted in the addition of $157.00 to the Contract Sum, 3) During a visit to the project site, the tenant requested that a sign reading "EMERGENCY EXIT ONLY" be provided at exit door A/3. Change Order #19, requir- ing this sign, resulted in the addition of $22.00 to the Contract Sum, 4) During the same visit to the project site, the tenant requested that a second bench be added in Sauna Room #132, Change Order #22 was issued to add this bench, and resulted in the addition of $154.00 to the Contract Sum.

April 29, 1982 5) Also during the same visit to the project site, the tenant requested replacing the existing pair of aluminum store front type entry doors with new wood doors. Change Order #24, requiring these doors, resulted in the addition of $1,186.00 to the Contract Sum. 6) During the design of the remodel project, the Architect asked the tenant if the receptionist desk, shown on their preliminary plan, was an existing desk or was to be custom built. The tenant indicated that the desk was not existing, but he would take care of it prior to moving. At a subsequent visit to the project site the tenant requested that the porject Architect design the desk and have it added to the project. Change Order #25, requiring the construction and installation of the desk resulted in the addition of $1,460.00 to the Contract Sum. 7) Since. we were given no information on copier outlet requirements by the tenant, the Project Architect specified that outlets be installed comparable to the ones used in the City offices for similar copiers. Shortly before the tenant move-in date, the I.B.M. representative visited the site and indicated to the Electrical Contractor that the installed outlets were not adequate. Change Order #35 was issued to approve changing the three copier outlets, and resulted in the addition of $368.00 to the Contract Sum. 8) About one week prior to the tenant move-in date, one of the employees of Phar- maceutical Technology left a note in the production room #149 requesting that telephone outlets be installed along the north and south walls rather than along the west wall as indicated on the plans, thereby getting the telephones in the desired location. Change Order #39 was issued to approve this change and re- sulted in the addition of $204.00 to the Contract Sum. . The total cost of the above itemized Change Orders resulting from add-ons or changes initiated by the tenant, after the contract was awarded, accounts for $6,666,48 or 51% of the total Change Order amount, For your review, I have attached copies of the Change Orders which have been approved since my prior memo dated April 12, 1982. The following is a summary of the total costs for the remodel project: Original Contract Sum not including alternates Alternate #1, Fire Sprinkler System Alternate #2, Coffee Bar Modifications Increase in Contract Sum by 39 Approved Change Orders Maintenance Division demolition expense (301 hours) TOTAL PROJECT COST $ 87,568.00 17,738.00 423.00 12,981. 54 2,284.09 $120,994,63 Please contact me if you have any questions regarding these cost items, or if you need any additional information relative to this project. , cc: Ronald B, Clark, Superintendent of , Building ............,...~......".....+...
