ISSUE/BACKGROUND:
body
The Board previously approved resolution #21-106 to authorize staff to utilize a temporary location for ferry operations to mitigate the risk of delays due to Covid 19 and the risk of high river season on the construction of the Canal Street Ferry Terminal. The actual amount issued in change orders was $44,442 more than the Board originally authorized. The amounts to each vendor also shifted.
end
DISCUSSION:
Staff made recommendations to the CEO and Board based on best available information. As the details were thoroughly investigated and location of the temporary service was defined cost and scope responsibilities shifted. Lab-Mar's scope increased, Woodward APC scope decreased, and the location cost were further defined.
Additionally, the scope of the work performed by Lab Mar included the removal of "trapezoid" portion of the pedestrian bridge that was supported by the barge superstructure. This scope is in the Woodward APC contract and staff pursuing a credit to the Woodward APC construction contract.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This project is funded by competitive grant funds and self-generated funds. $499 K will be charged to the appropriate cost codes LA2017-019.1047.122306, LA2017-019.1047.127693, LA2017-019.1047.123305 LA950006.1047.123405A.
NEXT STEPS:
Upon Board approval, staff will issue a change order to LabMar Ferry and the Port of New Orleans to include the revised work.
