Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
A. Need. This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify the professional engineering services agreement with Malcolm Pirnie, Inc. for the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant New Headworks project. The Malcolm Pirnie, Inc. modification amount requested under this ordinance is $697,000.00. The contract total including this modification is $18,083,000.00. The proposed contract modification provides funding for preliminary and detailed design services now needed for the decommissioning of the existing headworks facilities. The potential need for this work was foreseen and so stated in the original contract's legislation, and is therefore a planned continuation of the services originally included within the existing contract's scope of service. 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.
B. Contract Compliance No.: 132653703/001 (MAJ) (Expires 04/07/2010)
C. Emergency Designation: Emergency designation is not requested.
2. FISCAL IMPACT:
This legislation authorizes the transfer of funds from within the Sanitary Sewer Revenue Bonds Fund and the amendment of the 2008 Capital Improvements Budget to cover the necessary and authorized expenditure of $697,000.00 within the Sanitary Sewer Revenue Bonds Fund.
