Explanation

Background: This legislation authorizes a modification to the design contract with Burgess & Niple for the Kinnear Road Improvement project. This project is being designed to investigate engineering alternatives for the widening, drainage, and streetscape features of Kinnear Road. The limits of the project are North Star Road to the west and Kenny Road to the east.

The contract modification is necessary to accelerate the delivery of the source document from 12 months to 8 months allowing the Transportation Division the opportunity to position the City to apply for additional Federal and State Capital dollars.

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.

Current hourly rate, the overhead rate and the percentage of profit that were negotiated at the beginning of this project were used to determine the amount of this modification. Burgess & Niple, Inc., CC #31-0885550, expiration 1/8/09, was selected in July, 2006 in accordance with Chapter 329 for professional service contracts. No new hourly rates have been negotiated for this modification. The overhead rate and percentage of profit from the original contract were used because they are still valid.

The original contract amount was $500,000.00. There have been no prior modifications. The total amount of Modification No. 1 is $22,782.00. The contract amount, including all modifications is $522,782.00.

Emergency action is requested for immediate modification of the design contract for the earliest possible completion of the design to stay on schedule for construction and preserve the safety and welfare of the public.

Fiscal Impact: Funds for this project in the amount of $22,782.00 are available in the 1995, 1999, 2004 Voted Street and Highway Funds for the Transportation Division.
