Transmitted herewith please find the Final Payment and Closeout Change Order for the above -
referenced project in the amount of $339,702.70 as approved by this office for your review, approval and
further handling. The project is complete at this time, including all punch list 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.
The Closeout Change Order results in an increase in the project cost from the original contract amount of
$1,195,831.00 to an adjusted total of $1,423,579.66 for an increase of $227,748.66.
Enclosed is a two-year Maintenance Bond provided by the Contractor in the amount of $284,715,93, or
20% the final contract value. Certified Payroll Records and Monthly Manning reports have been submitted
by the Contractor under separate cover.
We trust this is the information you require to process payment; however, if there are any questions or
comments, please do not hesitate to contact this office.
Very truly yours,
CME Associates
