Explanation

1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify the construction contract with Kokosing Construction Company, Inc. for the Jackson Pike Wastewater Treatment Plant Sludge Handling and Dewatering Improvements Project. This legislation will additionally authorize the expenditure of funds from the supplemental loan from the Ohio Water Pollution Control Loan Fund.

2. CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT MODIFICATION:
The Kokosing Construction Company, Inc. modification amount requested under this ordinance is $1,398,750.00. The contract total including this modification is $14,500,080.00. These additional funds will provide for the cost of numerous changes in contract work that have become necessary to continue the centrifuge facility construction. Due to the complex and comprehensive nature of this project, this additional work could not be foreseen, and it is not practical or feasible to undertake a new procurement to deliver these services.

3. FISCAL IMPACT:
This legislation appropriates $1,398,750.00 from the OWDA Loan of $3,114,588.10 that will be utilized for the subject project. The remainder will be appropriated by professional engineering services contract modifications with Dodson Stilson, Inc. & H. R. Gray & Associates, Inc.

4. EMEREGENCY DESIGNATION:
The Division of Sewerage and Drainage requests that City Council concur in the designation of this ordinance as an Emergency measure, in order to assure that the construction contract work may continue uninterrupted and avoid possible delays and to assure minimum final costs to the City in establishing these vital plant facilities.
