Explanation

BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to modify and increase a contract on behalf of the Office of Construction Management with Mull & Weithman Architects, Inc. for professional architectural design and engineering services for various Public Safety renovation projects. This will serve as a blanket contract to perform small to midsize projects for the Public Safety Department such as fire station window replacements, police substation renovations, and driveway and apron restoration, etc.

The original contract was awarded through Request for Statements of Qualifications and authorized by Ordinance No. 0311-2009, passed April 7, 2009, in the amount of $250,000.00. The contract was not bid for a particular building but encompassed various Public Safety renovation projects. A modification is in the best interest of the City and the Department of Public Safety so as to ensure outdoor projects can be constructed during the warmer months of the year.

Fiscal Impact: The cost of this modification is $100,000.00. This ordinance authorizes the expenditure of $100,000.00 from the Safety Voted Bond Fund, where there are sufficient funds to cover this expense. In order to spend these funds, an amendment to the 2011Capital Improvements Budget is necessary. The original contract was $250,000.00, with this modification, the total cost of this contract will be $350,000.00.
