Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
A. Need. This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify the professional engineering services agreement with Pomeroy & Associates, Ltd. for the Bill Moose Run Area Sanitary Sewer Improvements Project, for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage.
This contract modification provides professional engineering services for the necessary design of a new sewer in relation to the area set forth in the original contract. While performing the design report calculations and background research of the project area for the original sewer rehabilitation it was discovered that a portion of the existing sewer along Fenway Road would not have adequate capacity upon completion of the rehabilitation. With that said it is necessary to design a new sewer to allow for an increase in sewer capacity. The Pomeroy & Associates, Ltd. modification amount requested under this ordinance is $12,310.85. The contract total including this modification is $565,594.85.
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. The work under this contract modification is a plan update to be done as part of the final plan preparation. The cost of the modification is a continuation of the vendor's current pricing structure, as verified by City staff. This legislation will additionally authorize the expenditure of funds within the Sanitary Sewer Bond Fund.
B. Contract Compliance No.: 31-1568332
2. FISCAL IMPACT:
This ordinance requests the transfer of funds within the Sanitary Sewer Bond Fund in order to provide sufficient funding for this modifications expenditure. A transfer of budget authority is not necessary as the project already has sufficient authority in the 2006 Capital Improvements Budget.
3. PROJECT LOCATION:
This project involves the area along Fenway Road within the Bill Moose Run Area.
