Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to enter into a professional engineering services contract with Columbus Engineering Consultants, Inc. The intent of this contract is to provide the City of Columbus, Department of Public Service additional resources to perform various engineering and surveying tasks. There will be three General Engineering contracts authorized. The other two will be authorized in separate legislation.

The projects developed under this program are typically small to moderate size improvements, and frequently include a significant emphasis on pavement rehabilitation, curb replacement, sidewalks, curb ramps, drainage, minor rehabilitations, and aesthetic improvements. These contracts may be used for quick response design services. The selected consultants will perform such tasks when requested by the City.

The Department of Public Service, Office of Support Services solicited Requests for Proposals for the Roadway Improvements - General Engineering 2010-2012 project. Three contracts will be awarded from these proposals. The project was advertised through the City's Vendor Services web site from June 10, 2010, to July 6, 2010. The city received Twelve (12) responses. All Twelve were fully evaluated when the Evaluation Committee met on August 3, 2010.
