Item # 16.B.10
ID# 2024-1202
Executive Summary
*** This item continued from the October 8, 2024, BCC Meeting. *** Recommendation to approve an after-the-fact
payment in the amount of $198,715.84 to Coastal Concrete Products, LLC d/b/a Coastal Site Development for the
completed “Forest Hills Boulevard Stormwater Management Improvements” project under Agreement No. 20-7800,
“Underground Contractor Services” for work completed to the satisfaction of the County. (Project Number 60224)
OBJECTIVE: To approve an after-the-fact payment for work performed and completed by Coastal Concrete Products,
LLC under the "Forest Hills Boulevard Stormwater Management Improvements" project.
CONSIDERATIONS: On February 3, 2022, Stormwater issued a request for quote to the contractors under the
Underground Contractor Services Agreement 20-7800 for the Forest Hills Boulevard Stormwater Management
Improvements Project for the rehabilitation and replacement of drainage inlets, pipes, grates, and providing landscape
restoration. Five responses were received with the lowest bidder being Coastal Concrete Products, LLC. A Purchase
Order No. 4500217299 was issued on April 5, 2022, in the amount of $271,846.85 which included a $23,910.60 Owners
allowance. On March 27, 2023, staff issued a Notice to Proceed (the “NTP”) to Coastal to commence contractor services
on the project.
During construction, staff issued Work Directives 1 and 2 (attached), details of those Work Directives are as follows:
1) Work Directive 1 (Issued April 14, 2023): Material supplied and construction consisting of cutting and plugging two
existing, abandoned eight-inch (8”) force mains including but not limited to excavation, saw-cutting,
loading/hauling/disposal of old pipe and excavated material, capping, pipe bedding, backfill, compaction, and final
grading to completion. Coastal’s $13,487.24 estimate to perform this work is higher than ultimately billed by the
contractor for this staff directed work.
2) Work Directive 2 (Issued July 13, 2023): Material supplied and installation of Floratam Sod including but not
limited to the removal/loading/hauling/disposal of old sod and placement of new Floratam Sod. Coastal’s $4,895.10
estimate to perform this work is the same as that ultimately billed by the contractor for this staff directed work.
County staff failed to obtain quotes for the Work Directives and failed to convert the Work Directives into Change
Orders as required by the Agreement prior to the final completion date of the project. Additionally, the contractor
worked in good faith while the project was on stop work.
The final completion date was August 25, 2023. The project has been completed and this after-the-fact request is to
authorize payment of the attached Final Payment Application in the total amount of $198,715.84, which includes the
work authorized by both Work Directives. As part of this request, staff requests authorization to apply $18,382.34 from
the $23,910.60 Project Allowance toward the Final Payment amount of $198,715.84.
If this request is not approved, Coastal Concrete Products LLC, will not be able to get paid for the work that was
completed in good faith and to the County’s satisfaction. Division staff involved in this transaction are no longer
employed by Collier County.
This item is consistent with the Infrastructure and Asset Management Focus Area within Collier County’s Strategic
Plan.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funds in the amount of $271,846.85 are encumbered and available under the partnership Purchase
Order 4500217299 in Stormwater CIP Fund (3050), Project No. 60224, County Water Capital Project Fund (4012),
