BACKGROUND On April 10, 2006, the Council approved plans and specifications and authorized advertisement for bids for the Bluff Creek Boulevard Improvements. The improvements included as a part of this project were as follows: . Construction of Bluff Creek Boulevard from Audubon Road to approximately 4,100 feet to the east. . Construction of turn lanes and a traffic signal at the Audubon Road and Bluff Creek Boulevard intersection. . Installation of trunk watermain along Bluff Creek Boulevard. . Installation of trunk sanitary sewer along Bluff Creek Boulevard. . Construction of storm sewer and ponding improvements along Bluff Creek Boulevard. . Construction of retaining walls in the vicinity of the Bluff Creek crossing. . Installation of street lighting and landscaping along Bluff Creek Boulevard. r On June 2, 2006, bids were open for the project and on June 12, 2006, the City Council awarded a construction contract for the improvements. DISCUSSION The contractor has nearly completed the improvements to the Audubon Road and Bluff Creek Boulevard for this year. The improvements to the intersection included widening Audubon Road to construct turn lanes and installation of a signal. By widening Audubon Road, the boulevard grades increased more then anticipated next to the pedestrian trail on the west side of Audubon Road. The trail segment should be lowered to reduce the boulevard grades. The attached change order is for lowering the trail. The work would include lowering the trail a maximum of two feet (2'), replacing approximately 550' of The City of Chanhassen . A growing community with clean lakes, quality schools, a charming downtown, thriving businesses, winding trails, and beautiful parks. A great place to live, work, and play Todd Gerhardt November 13, 2006 Page 2 trail, installation of a modular block retaining wall and miscellaneous watermain work. The right-of-way out side the trail is very narrow. Staff has discussed obtaining a temporary easement from the property owner adjacent to the work to grade on his property to reduce the amount of wall needed. However, this property owner would not grant an easement without an exorbitant fee. The cost of the change order improvements would mainly be assessed back to the developers since the work is necessary for the project. The City would be responsible for 20% of the cost consistent with the cost splits for Audubon Road and Bluff Creek Boulevard improvements. The City's cost would be from Municipal State Aid funds. Staff has reviewed the costs and finds them acceptable. Staff recommends approval of Change Order #1 at this time. Attachments G:\ENGIPUBLICI06-05 2005 MUSA PHASE lI\111306 bkgd approve co l.doc ....
