Title
Consider Approval of Change Order No. 1 - Dryland Training at the New Northfield Ice Arena.
Body
Action Requested:
The Northfield City Council approves Change Order No. 1 - Dryland Training at the New Northfield Ice Arena.
Summary Report:
As part of the project development for the new Ice Arena, there were two alternates that were bid with the project. The alternates included the Concrete Stadium seating and Dryland Training and were dependent on fundraising/donation efforts from the Northfield Hockey Association (NHA).
This Change Order No. 1 will add Dryland Training to the project. The NHA has raised funds through donations and pledges to cover the cost of the Dryland Facility.
The change order (Attachment 1) will add $862,393.00 to the project, and funding for this will come from funds received from the NHA. The funds will be accepted through a separate action in the City accepting the cash donation from the NHA.
Alternative Options:
Staff recommend approval of the change order as the NHA has raised the necessary funds.
Financial Impacts:
$862,393.00 will be added to the project but will be paid for by the fundraising efforts of the NHA.
Tentative Timelines:
This will be built with the New Ice Arena; construction has begun.
