Explanation

This legislation serves to modify and increase the construction contract with Decker Construction Company for the Utility Cut and Restoration Project - 2002 in the amount of $250,000.00. This project consists of pavement restorations and backfilling necessitated by utility contractors excavating in the public rights-of-way and streets. This contract is being modified using existing prices obtained through the formal competitive bidding process. This existing contract allows up to three extensions and this is the second modification. The contractor is Decker Construction Company, contract compliance number 31-0983557 that expires July 7, 2006.

The original contract amount was for $335,000.00. The first modification amount was $300,000.00. The second modification amount is $250,000.00. The total contract amount including all modifications will be $885,000.00.

The sum of $50,000.00 is budgeted and available within the General Roadway Street Improvements project of the Transportation Division's General Permanent Improvement Fund and $200,000.00 is budgeted and available within the Sewerage and Drainage Division's Sanitary Operating Fund. This ordinance appropriates the General Permanent Improvement Fund cash. Over the past four years $2,300,000.00 has been expended on this project.

Emergency action is requested to minimize the extreme hazard caused to motorists and pedestrians by the improper or incomplete restoration of excavations in the rights-of-way.
