Borough of Carteret, Middlesex County, NJ CME File: HCA00603.01 Dear Mayor and Borough Council: Enclosed for your review and further handling, please find Progress Payment Estimate No. 7 and Change Order No. 1 for the above - referenced project, as approved by this office. This estimate is in the amount of $150,087.00. The estimate is for work completed by Lucas Brothers, Inc. through January 2018, which includes payment for milling and surface course paving, deductions taken for asphalt and fuel price adjustments, and associated work. The project is substantially complete at this time, with minor punchlist work remaining. Change Order No. 1 results in a $4,993.87 decrease in the original contract value from $2,564,744.00 to an adjusted value of $2,559,750.13. Additional items in the Change Order include costs for required electrical installations for the traffic signal as well as the inclusion of pay items which reflect a scope modification to allow for the resurfacing of Roosevelt Avenue and Minue Streets rather than full reconstruction, due to the presence of an existing concrete roadway base. The Middlesex County Office of Engineering has indicated their approval of the enclosed change order items. The change order reflects increases and decreases in original contract quantities required to complete the project. The increases in quantities could not, in our opinion, have reasonably been effectuated by a separately bid contract without unduly disrupting work and imposing adverse consequences on the Borough and will provide an improved level of service to residents. Certified Payroll Reports have been provided by the Contractor and are enclosed herein.
