Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to modify and increase an existing contract with Strawser Paving Company for the Pedestrian Safety Improvement - Sidewalk Replacement (2017) project in an amount up to $85,000.00 and to add funds in the amount of $15,000.00 for construction administration and inspection for the project.
Ordinance 3029-2017 authorized the Director of Public Service to enter into a contract with Strawser Paving Company for the construction of the Pedestrian Safety Improvement - Sidewalk Replacement (2017) project and to provide for construction administration and inspection services. This contract repairs sidewalks that have been damaged by city street trees and in some instances requires the removal of trees and new trees to be replanted.

The dollar amount of the contract is an estimated amount based upon what can be observed when the city inspector visits the property. Sometimes additional work needs to be performed such as replacement of additional sidewalk tiles or removal of trees that were not initially planned for removal. This year the additional work needed to repair the properties on the list will exceed the contract amount, necessitating a contract modification to add funds to complete the work.

Original contract amount: $517,634.33 (PO095792, Ord. 3029-2017)
Modification No. 1: $85,000.00 (This Ordinance)
Contract amount including all modifications: $602,634.33
