Re: Denton Denton
and drainage work in the vicinity of the
Utilities 30" Water Line Relocation
Dear Mr. Balch:
We have reviewed your October 20, 1989 letter concerning the
above captioned item. Although dated on the 20th, we received
the letter this date. By copy of this letter we are taking this
issue under advisement with the City of Coppell. We anticipate
that'a meeting of all parties will be arranged as soon as we have
had the opportunity to discuss this issue with the City.
While we recognize that it took Dallas Water Utilities longer to
perform the relocation of their line than anticipated, we must
point out that L. H. Lacy Company is obligated by the Contract
Documents to field verify the location and depth of all
underground utilities within the limits of the project prior to
the beginning of construction of the project. In our opinion it
is reasonable to assume that you would have discovered the
conflict at least four months earlier if you had verified all of
your utility locations prior to beginning work on the project.
After reading your letter we are unsure of L. H. Lacy Company's
intentions regarding prompt completion of the work for which it
is already obligated under the terms of the Contract. It is our
opinion that L. H. Lacy Company has a contractual obligation to
complete the subject work as soon as possible regardless of the
outcome of any discussions concerning the claim described in your
October 20, 1989 letter. If it is not your intention to proceed
at once with completion of this work, please respond in writing
at once so that the city may pursue its other options under the
Contract for the prompt completion of the work.

RE:
Denton Tap Road Improvements
Sandy Lake Road to Denton Creek
Remaining Pavement Over 3~" Water
Line Lowering
Dear Mr. Karlshurer:
As Dallas Water Utilities "wraps up" the remainder of their work
related to the lowering, we have begun making plans to complete
the remaining drainage and pavement improvements. Prior to
beginning the major items, we wish to address the additional
compensation needed to perform the work.
Our claim is based on the fact that more than adequate time was
permitted for the lowering to take place prior to completion of
the drainage and paving improvements on the project. It will
have taken approximately eleven (11) months for lowering to be
performed, from the time notification was first made.
At this time we would like to request a Change Order be issued in
the amount of $65,~?~.27. This amount was arrived at by
determining the cost to perform the work at present and deducting
from that the current contract prices. It includes mobilization
of utility, subgrade preparation and paving operations. Also
included are applicable labor, equipment and material
adjustments, reflecting reduced production associated with
smaller quantities. A breakdown of the above costs is attached.
In conjunction with the Change Order we would also like to
request an additional 75 calendar days be added to our contract.
This reflects the amount of time beginning' when traffic was
divided on the remainder of the project up until the above
referenced work can be completed.
Your immediate attention to this matter would be greatly
appreciated as I am sure you aware how anxious everybody is to
see the pavement completed.
Respectfully,
Scott J. Balch, P.E.
