DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
On October 9, 2023, the County Administrator approved a contract with JBrown Professional Group, Inc. for land surveying services to delineate rights-of-way necessary to establish water service connections at property corners.
On October 31, 2023, Purchase Order 2400500 was issued under this contract in the amount of $14,000 for work associated with Capital Improvement Project No. UTC000099.
On June 11, 2025, Change Order 1 was issued to increase the purchase order by $35,000, bringing the total to $49,000. This additional amount was needed to keep assigning projects under this contract as the original purchase order will be carried forward through to project completion.
Being presented today, Change Order 2 requests to increase the purchase order by $40,000, from $49,000 to $89,000. Additional funding is needed to support the continued installation of new water lines in preparation for additional customers. As the County's line crew enters its fourth year of installations, continued access to Florida-certified professional land surveying services is necessary to support ongoing construction activities and minimize project delays.
Change Order 2 is attached for review. Upon approval at today’s meeting, the change order will be presented to the Chairman and Clerk for signature.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
Neutral; additional expenditure of $40,000 for a total purchase order amount of $89,000. Funding from Marion County Utility Fund line: ZF448536-563102; Project Code UTC000099.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Recommended action
Motion to approve the change order, allow staff to process, and authorize the Chairman and Clerk to execute Change Order 2 to Purchase Order 2400500.
