INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
To: John W. Wohlmuth, City Manager
From: Mark Greenwood, P.E., Director of Public Works
Date: March 28, 2012
Subject: Cook Street Improvement Project/Sladden Engineering
During the construction of the Cook Street intersection improvements at Hovley Lane
East and Country Club Drive, staff expedited the work during the holiday season to take
advantage of reduced traffic levels. Sladden Engineering, the material testing
consultant for the project, incurred additional costs in the amount of $17,815.50 due to
expediting the work. Some of this additional cost may be recoverable from the general
contractor, Cooley Construction, and staff will pursue that as a separate matter.
Sladden's original contract was in the amount of $9,700.00 and there is $1,233.80
remaining on that purchase order. Therefore, the amount currently due to Sladden is
$16,581.70 and your authorization of this amount is requested. If you concur with this
recommendation, please sign below and return this memo to me and a contract
amendment will be prepared.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
