Background:
At the January 24, 2023, CRA Regular Board Meeting, the Board awarded the bid for Invitation to Bid CRA 2022-01-R - 95 SW 5th Avenue Commercial Building Construction Project (“ITB”) to Ahrens, the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, in the amount of $2,739,968.00. Subsequently, the CRA entered into an Agreement with Ahrens, dated February 28, 2023.
On April 25, 2023, the CRA Board approved the First Amendment to the Agreement. The First Amendment included the following provisions: Payment Procedures, Liquidated Damages, No Damages for Delay, Public Records, and Independent Contractor.
On September 11, 2023, Ahrens submitted a change order request in the amount of $1,500. The purpose of this change order request is for materials and labor to perform necessary structural adjustments to the foundation of the commercial building.
At this time, CRA staff is requesting the CRA Board accept the change order request in the total amount of $1,500 and approve a Second Amendment to the Agreement between the Delray Beach Community Redevelopment Agency and Ahrens Companies and thereby adjusting the total Contract Price to $2,741,468 for the construction of the commercial building located at 95 SW 5th Avenue.
