Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify an existing professional engineering services contract with Brown & Caldwell Ohio, LLC for the Large Diameter Sewer Condition Assessment - Olentangy Main Trunk Sewer Project, to authorize the appropriation and transfer of funds from the Sanitary Sewer Reserve Fund in the amount of $668,180.89, to the Voted Sanitary Sewer Bond Fund, and to amend the 2009 Capital Improvements Budget. This portion of the contract consists of professional services for the completion of the design plans and specifications, bidding documents, engineering services during construction, and all other services required for the completion of the project. The potential need for the additional work was foreseen and so stated in the original contract's legislation, and is therefore a planned continuation of the services originally included within the existing contract's scope of service. The Division has determined that these services cannot be performed by City personnel at this time, and has planned for the procurement of these services on a routine basis.
The original legislation, Ordinance 1716-2007, was part of the Capacity, Management, Operation & Maintenance Program (CMOM) requirements of the Ohio EPA consent order. The purpose of the project is to perform a sewer condition assessment of the Olentangy Main Trunk Sewer to determine the debris accumulation and structural integrity of the pipe.
This modification (Mod #1) will increase the funding of the contract by an additional $668,180.89.
The original contract was with Brown & Caldwell Ohio, LLC. for professional services for the Large Diameter Sewer Condition Assessment - Olentangy Main Trunk Sewer Project.
