Explanation
Background: This ordinance authorizes the Director of the Recreation and Parks Department modify an existing contract with DLZ Ohio, Inc. to provide professional services associated with the Kilbourne Run Sports Park Improvements Project. The modification amount being authorized by this ordinance is $1,700,000.00.
This modification includes scope for a wetland mitigation bank fee, construction administration, and services for roundabout design. This is a planned modification for construction administration services and wetland mitigation bank fee scope items. The wetland mitigation bank fee is the fee for filling in wetlands that are not able to be mitigated on site. The roundabout design was unforeseen during the time of the first contract modification because the Department of Public Service provided direction on moving forward with a roundabout design versus a traffic signal after the first modification of the design contract. The design fees for these improvements were determined using existing rates in the already established contract.
This contract modification is necessary for the completion of the design of the project and for adequate technical support during the construction phase of the project.
