Explanation

1. BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into an agreement with Brown & Caldwell Ohio, LLC in the amount of $1,762,305.17, for professional engineering services for the Town St. / Fourth St. Inflow Redirection Project for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage. The Division has determined that these services cannot be performed by City personnel at this time, and has planned for the procurement of these services on a routine basis.

This work will include preparation of construction documents (plans and specifications) for stormwater, sanitary sewer, and combined system improvements, preparation of necessary easements, and fielding technical questions during construction. Preparation of construction documents and easements will be completed within 36 months from the Notice to Proceed date. It is anticipated that construction will begin in 2012. Engineering services will end with completion of construction.

B. Procurement Information: The basis for selection of the chosen professional engineering services firm: The Division advertised Request for Proposals (RFP's) for the subject services in the City Bulletin in accordance with the provisions of Section 329.14 of Columbus City Codes. The Division of Sewerage and Drainage received technical proposals on August 8, 2008 from the following companies:
