BACKGROUND:
On August 7, 2025, City, Owner (Shanta Norton), and Contractor (Stejack, LLC) entered into an Agreement for SHIP/HOME/CDBG Housing Rehabilitation (City of Ocala Contract No. CDS/250787) for rehabilitative work required at the Norton residence in the amount of $45,040.40.
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS:
During the course of rehabilitative work, it was discovered that additional work outside of the original scope is needed. The additional work includes treatment for drywood and subterranean termites, replacing the master bedroom ceiling rather than repairing it, replacing the bedrooms' carpeting rather than cleaning it, and repairing the bedrooms' subfloors at an additional cost of $5,511.52. Accordingly, the parties now seek to amend the original agreement to include this additional work which would bring the total contract value to $50,551.92.
Staff recommends approval.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$5,511.52 is available in the SHIP Grant fund account 140-050-699-559-55-34010.
PROCUREMENT REVIEW:
These services were procured in compliance with the City’s Procurement Policy.
LEGAL REVIEW:
This Agreement has been reviewed and approved for form and legality by City Attorney, William E. Sexton.
