Explanation

This legislation authorizes the Public Service Director to reimburse the Public Utilities Department, Division of Sewerage and Drainage (DOSD) in the amount of $48,638.00 for full depth pavement replacement and resurfacing of the north half of Sycamore Road associated with the DOSD sanitary sewer improvements.

During the 2004 construction season, the DOSD let a project to perform sanitary sewer work on Sycamore Road, running west from Rhoads Avenue to Bulen Avenue. During construction in May, 2004 the City of Columbus Transportation Division was contacted by DOSD to review the existing concrete base on the north half of Sycamore Road within the limits of Rhoads Avenue to the east and Bulen Avenue to the west. The existing sanitary project on Sycamore Road included full depth pavement repairs from approximately the centerline of Sycamore Road to the south edge of pavement. Thus, the north half is an addition to the original scope of work.

During a field visit between Transportation and DOSD the existing concrete base on the north side of Sycamore Road was found to be in a deteriorated state and required a full depth removal and replacement. The Transportation Division requested a cost proposal from Kokosing Construction to determine a construction cost to repair the north half of Sycamore Road within the above referenced limits.

In an effort to provide a consistent and seamless paved surface, in conjunction with the sanitary sewer improvements, it was decided that additional pavement replacement and resurfacing would be performed by the contractor. It was in the City's best interest to include the additional pavement replacement and resurfacing with the sanitary sewer project. This saves the City time and money by having one Division administer this project, including both the sanitary sewer and resurfacing work, and saves placing an unnecessary burden on the residents located on Sycamore Road.
