Explanation
BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to modify a contract on behalf of the Office of Construction Management with R.W. Setterlin Building Company for construction of the new McKinley Avenue Complex at 1355 McKinley Avenue.
Ordinance 2145-2014 authorized the original contract and passed September 29, 2014, for $10,639,200.00. This modification is due to Public Service’s need for a truck wash bay at the Central Outpost operation. Public Service designed and bid the project as an alternate project; however, at the time of award the department did not have sufficient funds for this alternate so it was not included in the original legislation. Since then Public Service has determined this is of sufficient priority and need. The department identified funds and is requesting that the city proceed with the truck wash bay project.
Other entities that will be moving into this facility upon completion are the following:
Infrastructure Management (from 650 Nationwide Boulevard)
Facilities Management (from 640 Nationwide Boulevard)
Environmental Abatement (from 650 Nationwide Boulevard)
Technology Telecom Interconnect (from 90 West Broad Street)
EMERGENCY ACTION: The department requests emergency designation so that work for the wash bay can begin immediately and completed along with the balance of the project later this fall. In addition, the entities that will be moving into the Central Outpost relocating from older and inefficient locations and need to do so soon.
R.W. Setterlin Building Company Contract Compliance No. 31-0836188, expiration date October 29, 2016.
Fiscal Impact: The cost of this contract is $673,365.00 and funding is to come from the Streets and Highways Bond Fund, Fund 704.
