Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to modify and increase an existing contract with Glaus, Pyle, Schomer, Burns, and Dehaven, Inc. (GPD Associates) for a professional engineering services contract in the amount of $100,000.00. This modification is needed to insure the Division of Planning and Operations has the ability to secure needed engineering services in a timely basis. The intent of the contract is to provide the Division of Planning and Operations with resources to perform engineering and surveying tasks related to bridges, but also to be available for projects requiring a quick response.
Work to date includes:
Bridge Inspections, bridge load ratings, bridge rehab workplans, and engineering reports, preparation of design plans, bridge inspections, engineering analysis and reports, preparation of engineering plans and specifications to correct bridge deficiencies identified in workplans.
Services to be included in this modification include but are not limited to the services explained above for design of bridges and culverts as well as plans to repair existing structures. Services may be small in scope for individual projects, and some services may be required to quickly address discovered bridge deficiencies, it is desireable to lump the services into one contract.
This modification is also necessary to provide for analysis of the Division's Salt Barns to determine their structural integrity and possible solutions to structural deficiencies.
The original contract amount was $300,000 authorized by ordinance 0579-2008.
