The contractor of the Hollywood Streetscape has requested a contract amendment to cover the increased cost of construction due to the extended duration of the project, unusually high inflation, additional resurfacing requested by staff and inclusion of the “goat paths” to the Hollywood Shopping Center.
Although envisioned, the goat paths were not part of the original bid or permitted as the City did not own or control the property. An agreement between the City and Carrollton Enterprises has since been executed, enabling this work to proceed.
The original construction estimate was $2,801,800 based on the unit cost of itemized materials and estimated quantities of Materials two years ago.
The contract completion date was June 2022, but due to permit delays, field changes and supply chain issues were extended.
At last night’s meeting, the Council approved a Contract Amendment for $408,875 to complete the construction of the Hollywood Streetscape Project.
