Summary of Request

On February 1, 2018, Mendocino County awarded DOT Contract No. 170023 to Bouthillier’s Construction of Willits, California in the amount of $433,444.  A 10% contingency of $44,000 for contract changes was budgeted for the project.  The total amount of contract change orders to date is $59,872. DOT is requesting an increase of $59,872 to the Director’s change order limits, for a total of $93,994, as well as the authority to use up to $49,994 from the Road Fund to front the costs over the current budgeted amount. The funds are available in the Road Fund, and DOT will seek reimbursement from the Federal Highway Association (FHWA) for 88.53% of costs.  The draw from the Road Fund below includes only the local share of the additional funds needed ($10,782).
