Review letter
from County Engineer regarding Rd.23 Sanitary Sewer Trench
Replacement |
Present for the
discussion was County Engineer, Frank Onweller; Civil
Technician, Brinda Miller; and Sanitary Engineer, Ziad Musallam.
Mr. Onweller began the discussion by explaining his letter
stating that there is an issue with the trenches on Road 23 due
to the asphalt thickness not matching the existing asphalt
thickness. He stated that when the trenches were replaced, only
3” were put back which resulted in 12 weak areas on the road,
which further resulted in the need for his office to execute a
change order to remove and again replace the asphalt to existing
thickness. He stated that due to this error, he feels this
change order in excess of $13, 000 should not come out of his
GTMV fund and should instead come out of the Sanitary Engineer’s
Elmira/Burlington Sanitary Sewer Project Funds. Mr. Musallam
stated that he was performing work in accordance to the permit
that was approved by the County Engineer’s office, which stated
a 3” thickness. Mr. Onweller stated that they did issue a
permit, however there is a discrepancy in the details and prior
to the trenches being replaced, he did have a conversation with
Mr. Musallam and Kenny Cowell. Mrs. Miller noted that it would
have been much cheaper to fix the problem while the contractor
is still there than to call in a mill crew and a paving crew to
fix it. Discussions prior to today have resulted in agreements
on how to handle future discrepancies and miscommunications.
Commissioner Barnaby made the motion to make reimbursement from
the Elmira/Burlington sanitary sewer project funds to the GTMV
fund for the $13,018.48 for the change order executed in this
matter to correct the trenches on Road 23. Commissioner Genter
seconded the Motion. Motion carried unanimously.
