Explanation

1. BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify the professional engineering agreement with Brown and Caldwell for the Blueprint Clintonville Cooke/Glenmont Project (Mod #2), CIP 650870-100005. It is the objective of the City to mitigate overflows of Designed Sewer Relief (DSR) 335 to the 10-year Level of Service (LOS). The City will evaluate and determine if this LOS is best achieved with strictly Inflow &Infiltration (I & I) elimination with Green Infrastrure (GI) or in combination with some gray infrastructure.

To accomplish this objective, the original scope of work for this project included all the requisite investigation, evaluation, formulation, and design to produce fully independent construction documents for the remediation of inflow and infiltration (I & I), green infrastructure (GI) technologies and other related activities and/or documents necessary for project completion.

This is a planned contract modification that provides funds to complete the tasks associated with bidding procurement, engineering services during construction, and record planning.

In such a case, we would have wasted significant time in acquiring and evaluating the new proposals without significant bene...
