In many cases, the existing pavement was thinner than anticipated and the entire
thickness was milled off leaving areas of exposed gravel. It had been intended
that an average %4-inch shim would be placed on the milled surface prior to
placement of the wearing course. In practice, a greater amount has been placed
for this shim course largely because of the defects and unexpectedly thin
pavements encountered. This Change Order also includes $80,000 to cover the
anticipated total of this increased shim quantity.
Finally, it has been determined that Kehoe Avenue, which was specified to be
milled and overlaid, should be reclaimed. Without any more streets in the
program which can be deferred, an additional $9,180 is included in this change
order to cover the increased cost for Kehoe Avenue.
SUMMARY:
Asphalt Adjustment $120,000
Additional Shim Pavement $ 80,000
Kehoe Avenue $ 9,180
TOTAL $208,186
With Change Order #3, the total value of the contract is $7,346,752.
