The contractor, Osseo Construction Company LLC has completed the work on the project. However, the
contract completion dates was November 1, 2018 and the contractor did not complete work on the
elevated tank until 2019. These delays resulted in additional costs.
Site work improvements related to driveway and restoration work were needed at the elevated tank. This
site work was originally included with the 2018 North Water Tower Bypass Project. Because of the delays
associated with the painting of the elevated tank, the site work improvements were deleted from the
Bypass Project and added to the Elevated Tank Rehabilitation Project. Quotes were received to complete
that site work in 2019 and the work was completed in 2020 by Omann Brothers, Inc.
The final payment to Osseo Construction was reduced by $50,132.50 to cover additional costs associated
with Stantec Consulting and Omann Brothers driveway and restoration costs.
The additional Stantec costs from what was reviewed in November 2019 is $38,023.24 less $32,578 leaves
$5,445.24 additional costs.
Moved by Cruikshank seconded by McDonald to approve the increase of Stantec Consulting agreement for
the 500,000 Gallon Water Elevated Tank Rehabilitation Project in the amount of $5,445.24
