DATE: August 19, 2025
TO: Kent Cagle, City Manager
FROM: Andrew Zagars, P.E., City Engineer
SUBJECT: Authorize Change Order No. 1 for the Sidewalk and ADA Ramp Improvements Project with Jerdon Enterprises, LP
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
This Sidewalk Improvements project was included in the 2023 Capital Improvement Plan under the Transportation Section. The project is intended to perform construction throughout the City in order to address sidewalk gaps, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) deficiencies, upgrades to crossing locations, and address requests made by the City Council and citizens.
This project was funded by two sources: American Rescue Plan Act funds and the Child Safety Fund. The advertised project plans address ten locations throughout the City and was used to establish the base costs for construction. The base locations included in the bid are located on the following streets: Edgefield, W.S. Young Drive, and areas located near the following schools: Gateway Middle School, Iduma Elementary, Live Oak Ridge Middle School, Manor Middle School, Palo Alto Middle School, Peebles Elementary, Pershing Park Elementary, and Killeen Elementary.
On September 3, 2024, the City Council approved the contract with Jerdon Enterprises, LP, to perform the construction of the sidewalk and ramp improvements for the location stated above. The contractor has completed the work for all these locations and is in the process of closing out the contract and performing punch list items as a result of the state ADA inspection. This change order represents increased and decreased quantities based on actual measurements of the work completed. This change order will complete this year’s sidewalk project and allow the city to close out the contract with Jerdon Enterprises, LP, and ensure they are paid for the full amount of work performed.
