Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the Director of Public Service to modify a professional services contract with Lanham Engineering, LLC to add additional funds for the design of the Signals - Downtown Signals Part 2 project.
Ordinance 0423-2022 authorized the Director of Public to enter into a professional services contract with Lanham Engineering, LLC for the Signals - Downtown Signals Part 2 project. The project consists of the reconstruction of existing traffic signals within the downtown area. The signals planned for this contract are at the intersections of E. Rich Street at S. 3rd Street, E. Rich Street at S. 4th Street, E. Rich Street at S. 5th Street, and E. Rich Street at S. Grant Street.
