2 <br />The rock excavation line item is paid at $120 per cubic yard of rock excavated, so adding an <br />additional rock excavation amount of 3,873 cubic yards will increase the construction costs by <br />$464,760. This estimate is based the best available data and is conservatively estimated to be <br />sufficient to cover all rock for the rest of this project. This project has a unit price contract so <br />that a contractor is paid per unit, in this case cubic yards, as the rock is excavated. The <br />contractor will only be paid for the amount of rock excavated, regardless of the amount <br />available in the budget for that particular line item. <br />The project is being funded by a State Revolving Fund (SRF) Loan. The current available loan <br />amount is $774,904. The original construction contract was for $597,813, and the engineering <br />design and construction oversight was $94,200, leaving $82,891 to cover ancillary costs and <br />contingency. To date, there have been change order requests from the contractor and other <br />ancillary costs against this contingency in the net amount of approximately $40,000,-leaving <br />approximately $42,891 to go towards the extra rock excavation cost. <br />Additionally, $57,814 was appropriated to cover costs of the project which cannot be <br />reimbursed through loan proceeds, such as the loan origination fee and easement costs. This <br />amount will still be sufficient to cover the costs for which it was budgeted. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: This project currently has a construction contract in the amount of <br />$597,813. Adding the rock allowance contingency as outlined above would increase the <br />construction contract by $464,760. These extra funds would come from remaining contingency <br />of $42,891 and a requested increase of $421,869 in the SRF loan financing this project. <br />Budget Amendment #9 -E provides for the additional funds of $421,869 from SRF proceeds, <br />and amends the Capital Project ordinance as follows: <br />McGowan Creek Outfall — Project # 30043 <br />Rcvannac <br />Mr thic nrnipet <br />annrnnriatinnc fnr thic nrniect: <br />FY 2013 -14 <br />Current <br />Budget <br />June 17, 2014 <br />Amendment <br />FY 2013 -14 <br />Revised <br />Bud et <br />Professional Services <br />$94,200 <br />$0 <br />$94,200 <br />SRF Loan Proceeds <br />$774,904 <br />$421,869 <br />$1,196,773 <br />Article 46 Sales Tax Proceeds <br />$57,814 <br />$0 <br />$57,814 <br />Total Project Funding <br />$832,718 <br />$421,869 <br />$1,254,587 <br />annrnnriatinnc fnr thic nrniect: <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends the Board: <br />1.
