Explanation

Background: This legislation establishes construction inspection costs for Atwood Terrace Roadway Improvements in the amount of $221,054.00.  The construction contract is included with Department of Utilities work that has been submitted to Council via Ordinance 0716-2006. This Ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to execute a contract with the Kokosing Construction Company in the amount of $4,249,726.25 for the construction of four sanitary sewer improvement projects and one roadway improvement project, specifically;  Atwood Terrace/Lenore Avenue Relief Sewer - $565,639.80, Atwood Terrace/Northridge Rd. Relief Sewer - $715,989.45, Weldon Ave. Sanitary Relief Sewer - $503,147.15, Lenore Ave./Huy Rd. Sanitary Relief Sewer - $980,568.60, and Atwood Terrace Roadway Improvements, Piedmont to Norris - $1,484,381.25. The Atwood Terrace project adds new sidewalks and extends from Piedmont Road to Norris Drive. These construction inspection fees are for the Atwood Terrace Roadway Improvements only. Public Utilities will pursue their inspection services separately.

Emergency action is requested to establish this funding in time for the start of construction.

Fiscal Impact:  Monies for this expense are available within the Transportation Division as part of the Urban Infrastructure Recovery Program.
