Ward 5 Councilmember - Susan Wilkinson 
 
Richard Garland, Community Services Administrator, provided the following 
background: 
  
This request is based off an already approved stormwater project by mayor and 
council that was approved on 8.26.24. In an amount not to exceed $384,840.00. 
However, due to unforeseen utility issues with Atlanta Gas Light we were required to 
meet certain depth / coverage requirements by them which required the city to expand 
our scope slightly to achieve those requirements. In return caused need for a change 
order in an amount not to exceed $111,730.00 to be funded from 2025 stormwater. 
  
Public Works recommends approval of a change order / additional work for the 
Parkway Drive box culvert replacement project to K.M Davis Contacting Company, 
Inc. (3259 Austell Road, Marietta, GA 30008) in an amount not to exceed $111,730.00 
to be paid from the 2025 Stormwater fund and to bring the total project cost to a not to 
exceed amount of $496,570.00 and authorize the Mayor to sign and execute all 
documents.
