Explanation

Background: This legislation authorizes the Public Service Director to enter into a professional services engineering contract for the Transportation Division for the Universal Road Reconstruction project with W. E. Stilson, LLC in the amount of $169,869.00. The project is located on Universal Road between Fairwood Avenue and Progress Avenue. The purpose of the project is to reconstruct Universal Road which is deteriorating and investigate the possibility of constructing sidewalks in this industrial area. A professional services contract for engineering is needed to assure timely completion of the design as the Transportation Division does not maintain adequate staff or all of the various disciplines necessary to complete such design in house.

The selection process for the professional service contract has been done in accordance with provisions of Chapter 329.12 of Columbus City Codes 1959.
Fourteen firms (9 Maj; 3 MBE; 1 FBE; 1 MBR) submitted proposals: Advanced Civil Design, American Consulting Inc, Burgess & Niple, CEC, C.T. Consultants, Dynotec, Moody-Nolan, Poggemeyer Design Group, Pomeroy & Associates, Resource International, Ribway Engineering, R.W. Armstrong, Star Consultants, and W.E. Stilson.

The evaluation committee determined that W. E. Stilson, LLC, CC #31-1702689, expires 7/13/08, submitted the best overall proposal.

Emergency action is requested so that this design project can begin in a timely manner to improve the condition of this deteriorating roadway and keep commitments made to the local community.

Fiscal Impact: Funds in the amount of $169,869.00 are budgeted and available in the 1995, 1999, 2004 Voted Streets and Highways Fund within the 2007 Capital Improvement Budget for the Transportation Division.
