BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AGENDA REQUEST DATE: June 17, 2014 TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board FROM: Don Turner SUBJECT: OC Admin Building - Change Order for Demolition DEPARTMENT: Facility Maintenance BCC DISTRICT: All STATEMENT OF ISSUE: (FM) Requests BCC approval of a Change Order to the D-B contract with Lord & Son on the Okaloosa County Administration Building to add the Demolition of the buildings to be razed. BACKGROUND: With the asbestos abatement of the buildings to be razed at the former Shalimar annex property being completed, the front five buildings must be demolished to make room for the new building. The demolition work has been bid out by the D-B contractor and the total cost to demolish the buildings and properly dispose of the waste is $178,784.69. This cost is significantly lower than the pre-design budget estimate for this element of the project. To avoid any delay in the start of construction on the new building, the demolition activities at the site must begin right away. Any delay in acting on this Change Order may result in the new building not being ready for occupancy prior to the expiration of the current leases at Uptown Station. RECOMMENDATIONS: Requests BCC approval of a Change Order in the amount of $178,784.69 to the D-B Contract with Lord & Son on the Okaloosa County Administration Building to add the Demolition of the buildings to be razed. RECOMMENDED BY: APPROVED BY: Ernie Padgett, County Administrator
