Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
A. Need. This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify the professional engineering services agreement with Brown and Caldwell Ohio, LLC for the Jackson Pike Wastewater Treatment Plant Skimmings Concentrator System Improvements Project. The Brown and Caldwell Ohio, LLC, modification amount requested under this ordinance is $300,000.00. The contract total including this modification is $1,518,863.00. The proposed contract modification provides funding for additional and extended technical services now needed during construction for Contract J209. It is not reasonable or cost effective to undertake a new procurement to acquire these services. The cost of the modification is a continuation of the vendor's current pricing structure, as verified by City staff. The Division has determined that these services cannot be performed by City personnel at this time, and has planned for the procurement of these services on a routine basis.
B. Contract Compliance No.: 680442806 (MAJ) (Expires 06/17/2010)
C. Emergency Designation: Emergency designation is not requested.
2. FISCAL IMPACT:
This ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to transfer and appropriate $300,000.00 in funds from the Sanitary Sewer Reserve Fund to the Voted Sanitary Sewer Bond Fund for this expenditure; and to amend to the 2008 Capital Improvements Budget to establish sufficient budget authority to cover the expenditure upon passage of the ordinance. Monies for this contract from the Sanitary Sewer Reserve Fund will be provided from an upcoming Bond Sale via the transfer detailed in this Ordinance.
