Trinity Contractors Inc 4/3/2017 Change Order 1

Project: Citywide Intersection Signing Change Order No. 1 Change Order Effective Date: March 17, 2017 Exhibit A—Description of Changed Work: A new Schedule B will be created comprised of the following: New Item B.1 –Replacement Street Name Signs. Create New Item B.1 entitled"Replacement Street Name Signs",to provide funds at Unit Price of$25.55 per SF at an estimated quantity of 3,550.00 SF resulting in an increase of$90,702.50 to the contract. New Item B.2–Credit Value for Salvage of Existing Signs Create New Item B.2 entitled"Credit Value for Salvage of Existing Signs",to provide credit for the salvage value of the existing signs. The credit value is estimated at$500.00. Credit value is subject to verification and credited by invoice of market based salvage value of the removed signage. This item results in an estimated decrease of $500.00 to the contract. Exhibit B—Justification: In 2012 the Federal Highway Administration(FHWA)adopted policies for minimum standards for sign retro-reflectivity and deadline for replacement,outlined in Section 2A.08 of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices(MUTCD). The FHWA has outlined maintenance methods that are intended to provide agencies,including the City of Everett,with a flexible means of conformance with the MUTCD requirements for minimum retro reflectivity of traffic. The end result was that by June 13, 2014, all cities who maintain roadways open to public travel were required to adopt a sign maintenance program designed to maintain traffic sign retro-reflectivity at or above specific levels. In 2014,the City of Everett adopted a plan for the evaluation of reflectivity through a process of nighttime visual inspection and replacement,purchasing signs via a City procurement contract with installation by City forces. In 2014,the City of Everett received a Federal grant from the City Safety Program to upgrade stop and yield signs throughout the City to high intensity prismatic sheeting where applicable including upgrade of sign post to NCHRP 350 for crashworthy compliance. The project was design by Public Works staff, advertised for bid and awarded by City Council on February 1,2017. Since the City Safety Program grant is focused on improving stop signs and posts, street name signs were not considered safety oriented work and were not part of the scope of project. The contract scope of work requires relocating the existing street name signs atop the new crashworthy compliant poles utilizing new hardware. The project presents an opportunity to add work by change order to upgrade street name signs to the MUTCD standards for for reflectivity and text size, increasing to the larger 6"letters designed to improve legibility.Existing funding from the yearly sign reflectivity program will be used fund the street sign improvements. As noted above,the contract scope includes replacing the existing street sign hardware but not the existing signage. This is change order provides new MUTCD compliant street name signage for the contractor to utilize rather than resetting the existing signage. Since the contract already requires labor and hardware for this work,providing MUTCD compliant replacement signage will reduce future labor costs for City Forces as they will not have to remove and replace signage at a later date. Exhibit C—Additional Contract Time: This change does not impact contract duration. Page 3 of 3
