Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to execute a professional engineering services contract with DLZ Ohio, Inc. This contract will prepare detailed construction drawings and specifications for the construction of Olentangy-Scioto Intercepting Sewer (OSIS) Downtown Odor Control Facilities Project.

This project will install air treatment systems located in or adjacent to the Downtown Riverfront Development Area, in order to reduce documented odors from the OSIS.

B. Procurement Information: The selection process was conducted based upon the Request for Proposals to three shortlisted consultants from the original Request for Statement of Qualifications. The selection criteria were as listed in Columbus City Code Section 329.13. The three firms that submitted proposals were BBS Corporation, DLZ-Ohio, and Webster Environmental Associates.

After detailed discussion, the selection committee recommended that DLZ-Ohio be considered for providing services on this project, to which the Director of Public Utilities concurred.

2. Emergency Designation: The Division is requesting City Council to consider this legislation an emergency measure in order to ensure that this contract work is commenced immediately pursuant to determining the actual locations of the bio-filters. This task is a necessary precursor to the final development of the plans being produced for the Riverfront Development Area.
