1. BACKGROUND:
A. Need. This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify the agreement with Malcolm Pirnie, Inc., for Professional Program Management Services for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage. The work in that program is a very substantial group of sewer capital improvements projects (CIPs), both collections systems and treatment works improvements, which have been agreed to by the City and Ohio EPA in order to conform to the requirements of the City's consent orders. The actual emplacement of the CIPs will be by construction contract; the professional program management contract is providing: program planning, scheduling, budgeting, and status reporting; construction management; design management; some design of critical projects; special services such as Value Engineering, and other services for this very large, important program, as directed by the City. The initial authorization of, and appropriation of monies to, this contract was accomplished by Ordinance No. 0731-2006, passed May 8, 2006. The Malcolm Pirnie, Inc. modification amount requested under this ordinance is $11,000,000.00. The contract total including this modification is $76,718,025.00. This contract was always planned to be funded incrementally, via approximately annual appropriations. The current appropriation will be exhausted at the end of March, 2010, and this modification provides monies to continue this important work through October, 2010.
