Explanation

Background: This ordinance authorizes the Public Service Director to enter into a professional services contract for Sidewalk General Engineering 2007 services between the Transportation Division and American Structurepoint, Inc., in the amount of $200,000.00. These professional services will include producing engineered construction drawings for various sidewalk projects within the public right-of way.

Fiscal Impact: Funds in the amount of $200,000.00 are budgeted and available in the Voted 1995, 1999, 2004 Streets and Highways Fund for the Transportation Division.
