Explanation
Background: This legislation will authorize the Director of Public Service to modify the design contract with Dynotec, Inc. for the Group 9 Intersection Improvement project. This project is being designed to improve the alignment at the intersection of Hudson Street at McGuffey Road and add a westbound left turn lane from Livingston Avenue to southbound Lockbourne Road. This project will replace existing sidewalk and construct ADA compliant curb ramps.
This contract modification is necessary to update the project plans to current specifications and separate each intersection from the original Group 9 Intersection Improvements project so that each intersection improvement can be constructed separately.
This modification is an addition to the original scope of services but is a continuation of the existing work being performed.
Dynotec, Inc., CC #31-1319961 (expiring 9/23/08), was selected in 1996 in accordance with Chapter 329 for professional service contracts. We have negotiated new hourly rates for this modification because the current contract is 11 years old. Costs have increased by approximately 4% per year for the past 11 years. The overhead rate and percentage of profit from the original contract were used because they are still valid.
The original contract amount was $190,510.00. The total of all prior modifications is $65,000.00. The total of this Modification is $100,000.00. The contract amount, including all modifications will be $355,510.00.
Fiscal Impact: Funds in the amount of $100,000.00 are budgeted and available in the 1995, 1999, 2004 Voted Street and Highway Funds for the Transportation Division.
