1. BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Service to modify and extend a service contract with Civil and Environmental Consultants, Inc., to add funds in the amount of $45,000.00; to authorize the Director of Public Service to execute contract modifications if needed to clarify terms and conditions of the contract or to implement program improvements and enhancements.
