Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
A. Need. This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify the professional engineering services agreement with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. (formerly R.D. Zande and Associates, Inc.), for the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant Digester Rehabilitation project. The Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. modification amount requested under this ordinance is $972,976.00. The contract total including this modification is $9,615,470.25. The proposed contract modification provides additional funding for technical project representation, field project representation, and construction management services now needed during construction. It is not deemed either feasible or reasonable to suspend work with the entity currently under contract and undertake 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. 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.
B. Contract Compliance No.: 112167170/001 (MAJ) (Expires 01/07/2010)
C. Emergency Designation: Emergency designation is not requested.
2. FISCAL IMPACT:
This ordinance authorizes the transfer of funds from within the Sanitary Sewer Revenue Bonds Fund for this expenditure. The 2008 Capital Improvements Budget is amended for this expenditure upon passage of this ordinance.
