Explanation
The Transportation Division is undertaking the Williams Road Improvement project. This project is being designed to improve the grade separation between the roadway surface on Williams Road and the bottom of the overhead railroad bridge between the project limits of Groveport Road and Lockbourne Parkway. The project is intended to improve this clearance to permit the passage of taller truck traffic and to construct a pump station for drainage of the accumulated storm water on the roadway beneath the overpass.

This legislation authorizes a modification to the design contract with Dynotec, Incorporated. The contract modification is necessary to compensate this consultant for additional work arising from City standards. Revised locations of Raised Pavement Markers based on current guidelines are being incorporated in the plans. Pavement and planning details with finished grade profiles and associated quantities are being added to the scope of the design during the review process.

This modification is an addition to the original scope of services but is a continuation of the existing work being performed and it would not be practical to contract with a different consultant.

The current hourly rate, overhead rate and percentage of profit that were negotiated at the beginning of this project were used to determine the amount of this modification. Dynotec, Incorporated, contract compliance #31-1319961 (expires September 23, 2008), was selected in 1996 in accordance with City Code Chapter 329 for awarding professional service contracts.

The original contract amount was $128,388.00. This modification totals $12,100.00. The total of all modifications is $49,354.00. The contract amount including all modifications is $177,742.00.

Fiscal Impact: Funds for this contract modification are not budgeted per se but have been identified and are available from the cancellation of $229,513.81 from an old construction contract (EL031299-002) that ...
