Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to execute a contract with Reynolds, Inc., for the construction of the Adena Brook Ravine Area Sanitary Sewer Improvements Project. This project will rehabilitate approximately 20,937 lineal feet of eight to twenty-four inch diameter sanitary sewer lines and accessory structures that serve homes within the project areas that are located in the Clintonville Community (See Attached Map). This contract will utilize trenchless technology methods to minimize the disruption to residences in the project area and to avoid the costlier method of traditional open trench sewer removal and replacement.

The Director of Public Utilities publicly opened four competitive bid proposals on March 9, 2005. The cumulative results of these bids were: Reynolds, Inc. submitted a bid of $2,051,575.20; Insituform, Inc. submitted a bid of $2,115,579.20; Kokosing Construction Co. submitted a bid of $2,380,602.80; and American Water Services, Inc. submitted a bid of $2,383,175.60. The Engineer's Estimate for this project was $2,216,892.00.

2. PROJECT SCHEDULE:
This rehabilitation contract is scheduled to begin in August of 2005, and has a duration of 550 days. The Division does not anticipate any future modifications for this contract. However, with any subsurface infrastructure construction activity, there is the potential for unforeseen conditions that may necessitate issuing change orders for work that was not anticipated.

3. EMERGENCY DESIGNATION:
The Division of Sewerage and Drainage is requesting City Council to consider this legislation an emergency measure in order to allow for the immediate commencement of this contract work that is necessary to rehabilitate nearly 20,937 lineal feet of sanitary sewer serving a residential area in the Clintonville community, pursuant to ensuring the continued operation of this vital sanitary sewer infrastructure.
