Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to execute a construction contract modification with Thompson Excavation, Ltd. for the Brick Rehabilitation - Pearl Street - Short North Brick Rehabilitation project.
This contract modification will allow the Department of Public Service to change the project scope of this existing contract for purposes of non-performing previously scoped work on the Brick Rehabilitation - Pearl Street - Short North Brick Rehabilitation project and applying non-performed construction pay items to the reconstruction of the brick pavement, new sidewalk, sidewalk rehabilitation, and construction of ADA ramps on Elm Street between North Front Street and Wall Street.
Work to be non-performed on the project consists of the rehabilitation of Pearl Street between Hubbard Avenue and Prescott Street. This work is being non-performed due to an ongoing project "The Hubbard."
