CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, APPROPRIATING AN ADDITIONAL
$175,000 FOR CONTINGENCY ITEMS FOR THE COLLINS AVENUE

FUNDING:
$175,000. Funds are available from Water and Sewer Revenue Bond fund 424.
ANALYSIS:
On June 27, 2001, the Mayor and City Commission authorized the City Manager to enter into two
agreements: the first, between the City and Central Florida Equipment Rental, Inc., in an amount not
to exceed $1,550,000, and the second, between the City and Miller Pipeline Corporation in an
amount not to exceed $200,000. The total amount of these two contracts is $1,750,000. Neither
contract includes a contingency balance.
As a result of the number of fittings incorporated in the water main to facilitate routing the pipe
around the large number of obstacles in the Collins Avenue Right-of-Way, Miller Pipeline
Corporation personnel have advised the City that the number of joints in the pipe requiring sealing is
higher than the preliminary estimate on which their estimate was based.

The original price proposal from Miller was based on their review of engineering drawings provided
by the City of the water main project. On the basis of these drawings, Miller estimated 185 joints of
pipe would need to be sealed, and a contract was executed based on that number. Miller's personnel
have now completed more than three-quarters of the sealing operation and have reported that the
water main has many more joints than were originally estimated. Miller has revised their estimate of
the number of seals required to repair the water main from 185 to more than 295. As a consequence,
they have indicated to the City that the total cost of the sealing operation may increase by an
estimated $75,000 bringing the total contract to a maximum of$275,000.
Furthermore, as a result of the number of bends incorporated in the water main to route the pipe
around obstacles, Miller has requested the City to arrange for the provision of an additional access
pit to the pipeline. Central Florida Equipment Rental, Inc. has advised that the cost for an additional
access pit will be $27,083.33 bringing the total contract to a maximum of$I,577,083.33, which is
consistent with their contract price.
The City administration has approved change orders to Miller Pipeline Corporation in the amount of
$75,000 bringing the total contract to a maximum of $275,000, and Central Florida Equipment
Rental, Inc. in the amount of$27,083.33 bringing the total contractto amaximwn of$I,577,083.33
for the above work based on the emergency nature of this project. The administration is now seeking
approval to appropriate $175,000 to cover the approved change orders and the balance of$72,916.67
for future contingency items.
