Explanation:
This legislation authorizes a modification to the design contract with Ohio Civil Design and Management for the South High Street at Williams Road project. This project will widen the intersection from westbound Williams Road to southbound South High Street. The project limits for this design contract are from a point 100 ' +/- west of High Street to a point 675' +/- east of High Street and north and south on Williams Road. The contract modification is necessary to add additional traffic signal design as well as additional requirements for drainage and ADA-compliant wheelchair ramps. This modification is an addition to the original scope of services and is a continuation of the existing work being performed and would not be practical to contract with a different consultant. Current hourly rates, overhead rate, and the percentage of profit that were negotiated at the beginning of this project were used to determine the amount of this modification. Ohio Civil Design and Management, CC No. 31-1388774 (expiring June 6, 2005) was selected in 1999 in accordance with Chapter 329 for professional service contracts.
The original contract amount was for $97,575.00. There have been two modifications that total $22,425.00. The revised total for this contract including this pending modification is $129,969.00.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funds are available for this contract modification in the Roadway Improvement project within the 1995, 1999 Voted Streets and Highways Fund.
Emergency action is requested for immediate modification of the contract for the earliest possible completion of the design to stay on schedule.
