Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this legislation is to modify the existing professional engineering services contract with DLZ Ohio, Inc., in connection with the Big Walnut Sanitary Trunk Sewer Extension, Part 6F1 Project.

This contract modification will provide for the payment of the required construction administration and inspection services that were planned for and included within the original procurement of this contract. It was determined to be in the City's best interest, not to fund these services until easements were procured and the project was successfully bid.

This project will construct an extension of the Big Walnut Sanitary Trunk Sewer north of Dempsey Road and east of Hoover Resevoir, and will provide sanitary sewer service for the rapidly developing area between Hoover Resevoir and The village of New Albany, north of State Route 161. The construction includes the installation of 9,300 lineal feet of 72-inch diameter sanitary sewer tunnel; 598 lineal feet of 72-inch diameter sewer by trenchless construction methods; and the installation of five shafts/manhole structures.

2. FISCAL IMPACT:
This legislation requests Council to authorize the transfer of funds within the Voted Sanitary Bond Fund to cover the additional cost of this contract. The Division of Sewerage and Drainage has budgeted $27,500,000.00 within the 2006 Capital Improvements Budget to cover the cost of the construction ($23,897,500.00-Ord. No. 2039-2006) and the cost of this contract modification for construction administration and inspection services. The Division currently has a balance of $24,995,300.00 within this project account, and is requesting a transfer herein, to provide the temporary additional funds for this expenditure. An additional $1,818,000.00 will be available from the December, 2006 bond sale.
