Explanation

BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of Finance and Management to modify and increase the Office of Construction Management's professional service contract (authorized by Ordinance No. 2152-2005, passed 12/14/2005) with eS Architecture and Development, Inc. for the design, consulting, and construction administration services in order to produce a new police station, to be shared by the City of Columbus and The Ohio State University. The design services will include US Green Building Council LEED Certification. This is in compliance with the Mayor's policy directive "Get Green Columbus 2005: Environmental Stewardship in the 21st Century." eS Architecture and Design is responsible for producing a design of a facility to a LEED Certified level, progressive meetings with the City and the community through the completion of agreed upon final product, renderings, drawings, specifications, the bid process, and construction administration.

The contract modification is necessary as it will provide for the payment of additional services that exceeded the original base scope. The original construction budget was expanded from $2,450,000.00 to $3,200,000.00. In addition, this modification will provide for the inclusion of design and specifications of FFE in the bid documents.

Emergency action is requested to complete the project design work as soon as possible in order to maintain the identified construction schedule, thereby providing needed public safety services to The Ohio State University area as quickly as possible.

eS Architecture and Development CC# 31-1448505, expiration date 11.29.2007, Majority.

FISCAL IMPACT: The modification amount requested under this ordinance is $147,500.00. The amount of the original contract is $375,000.00 for a contract total, including this modification, of $522,500.00.
