�� - 2 parking garage, which could be a year after work is completed. Adequate money will be held in retention to insure that all work gets completed (Section 3.H.3.). ➢ Removed language relating to strikes, lockouts, and _�ther labor disputes wit; �in the schedule (Section B.C.). - ➢ Changed the requirement for Builder's Risk Insurance from the Developer to the General Contractor, who is able to get this type of insurance. The deductible amount is also changed to conform to industry standards (Section 13. B.7.). Preliminary soil and groundwater testing has been performed on portions of the site, but not to the extent necessary to start excavation. The Developer has hired a company to do this testing, and the results will be available the week of October 13, 2003. We are not anticipating any unusual contamination on the site, but if something should turn up, we will be back to the Council/Agency for appropriate action. The costs associated with soil and groundwater clean-up will be paid by the City. The current cost estimate does not include the "supergraphics" that have been discussed at some of the meetings. There is adequate time to get designs and cost estimates prior to completion of the garage. As we get further along in the project, we will have a better understanding of all construction costs and can look into upgrades, if warranted. Because this project is on such a tight schedule, we do not have final plans or hard bids on many of the trades. Some of the bids received so far are nearly the same as the estimates from the General Contractor, which is a good sign. Alternatives Leave the Agreement in the form approved on September 22, 2003, which could cause substantial delays. The new language provides City staff clearer direction for administering the contract. These changes do not cause a delay or increase cost or City risk for the parking garage. Fiscal Impacts These changes to the Agreement do not add any cost to the parking garage, but should clarify who is responsible for unforeseen costs. , �� i.
