Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify the professional engineering services agreement with Burgess and Niple, Limited for additional services related to increased support services that were required to resolve construction related issues and to provide design services for Phase 2 which includes the preparation of plans and specification for Tank 4 of the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant Effluent Disinfection Improvements Project for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage.

2. PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES MODIFICATION AWARD:
This contract is being funded incrementally by modification as the work progresses through the planned project steps from the Preliminary Design Phase through the Services During Construction Phase. The contract total including this modification is $3,945,357.00. 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 as originally included within the existing contract's scope of service. It is not deemed either feasible or reasonable to suspend work with the entity currently under contract and undertake the continuation of these services with another procurement. The cost of the modification is a continuation of the vendor's current pricing structure, as verified by City staff.

3. FISCAL IMPACT: This project will be funded with financial assistance from the Ohio Water Development Authority. The Division is requesting an amendment to the 2004 Capital Improvements Budget within Ord. No. 1293-2004, in order to adjust the funding authority for this project.
