BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: May 20, 2014
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Don Turner
SUBJECT: Shalimar Annex Project - Asbestos Abatement
DEPARTMENT: Facility Maintenance
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request Board approval of a Change Order in the amount of
$170,854.54 to the Lord & Son contract for asbestos abatement of the former Shalimar Annex.
BACKGROUND: An asbestos survey was conducted on all five of the main buildings at the
former Shalimar Annex on March 3, 2014. The survey revealed the presence of asbestos
containing materials (ACM) in several parts of the buildings. Before the start of any work that
may disturb any of the ACM, the ACM must be properly abated by a qualified contractor and
properly disposed of.
The abatement was not a part of Lord & Son's original contract. To keep the project moving
forward to completion before the deadline, Lord & Son is being charged with the responsibility
to get the abatement done. The costs for the abatement, air monitoring, and administration is
$170,854.54 (documentation attached). Until other financial arrangements are determined for
complete funding of the current major construction projects, staff recommends utilizing the
current funds allocated in the 301-3160-562132 account (Capital Outlay Fund - Shalimar Annex
- Phase II) to fund the CO.
RECOMMENDATIONS: (FM) Request Board approval of a Change Order in the amount of
$170,854.54 to the Lord & Son contract for asbestos abatement of the former Shalimar Annex
and authorize the Chairman to execute all documents.
