Summary

With bid prices below estimates, council approved a change order adding full‑depth concrete replacement and mill/overlay work on several streets, increasing the Pearson Construction contract by up to $263,797.70.

Park City Council on Aug. 26 approved a change order to expand the city’s 2025 Street Rehabilitation program after staff found bid prices well below the engineer’s estimate. Pearson Construction, the original contractor, agreed to perform additional work at the same low bid rates.

Staff proposed five additional construction‑ready projects: an extension of full‑depth 9‑inch concrete replacement on Hatton Drive to the Beaumont connection; 2‑inch mill and overlay on 50th Street from Broadway west to the city limits (excluding a small section adjacent to the railroad that may require separate railroad permitting); and mill/overlay work on Cambridge Court, Burlington Court and Sunnyslope Court. The change order increases the contract by up to $263,797.70 and brings the total contract to $1,294,248.60 to be paid from the special streets and highway fund.

Council members discussed the choice of segments added and the efficiency of addressing contiguous areas. Council voted to approve the change order, and staff said the added work will be scheduled to maintain construction efficiency and make best use of the lower bid pricing.
