Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into an agreement with Korda/Nemeth Engineering, Inc. for additional engineering design services for the Merwin Hill Area Storm Sewer Improvements.

This contract modification will provide for the payment of additional services preparation of construction plans and specification for the extension of storm sewer service to Merwin Hill Drive near the intersection of McCutcheon and Stelzer Roads. The contract was originally scoped for the design of a sanitary sewer (assessment) within the area of Merwin Hill Drive. During field review, the need for a culvert replacement under McCutcheon Road was identified within the project alignment. Request was identified through customer input, and reviewed by DOSD.

2. FISCAL IMPACT:
Korda/Nemeth has already acquired sufficient survey data to provide design of the culvert but cannot utilize the current funding source (sanitary) in the original contract for the design of a stormwater culvert (different funding source). The Department of Public Utilities, Division of Sewerage and Drainage, has determined funding for this project will come from the Storm Sewer Bond Fund. The legislation includes a transfer of funds within the Storm Sewer Bond Fund and an amendment to the 2007 Capital Improvements Budget to allow sufficient cash and authority in the proper account for this project.
