RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Council award a professional engineering services contract amendment for the construction contract administration of W.O. 24-01, Contract 2: 2024 Sewer Main Replacement, to Morrison-Maierle in the amount of $570,282.
BACKGROUND (Consistency with Adopted Plans and Policies, if applicable)
W.O. 24-01 Contract 2, 2024 Sewer Main Replacement will replace approximately 13,625 feet of existing sanitary sewer. The sewer mains being replaced with this project were selected based on age, video inspection condition assessment, root intrusion history, and sewer back up history. This project will replace sanitary sewer mains that are 100 to 120 years old made of clay tile. These sewer mains exhibit broken and cracked pipe and many sections need yearly root intrusion removal and maintenance. Generally, the sewer mains to be replaced or rehabilitated are located north of 6th Avenue North between North 30th Street and North 22nd Street. Some other isolated sewer main replacements are also included. The Morrison-Maierle initial contract for $389,900 to perform the design and bidding portion of the project was approved by Council in July 2023 and the scope of work was completed. Contract Amendment No. 1 consists of performing the Construction Contract Administration and associated services for the project. These professional services include construction survey, materials testing, construction observation, construction contract administration, and project closeout. These services were scoped after the construction contract duration was known following the design and bidding of the project.
ALTERNATIVES
City Council may:
- Award W.O. 24-01, Contract 2: 2024 Sewer Main Replacement, Professional Engineering Services Contract Amendment No. 1 with Morrison-Maierle in the amount of $570,282; or,
- Do not award Contract Amendment No. 1 with Morrison-Maierle. If this contract is not awarded, the construction project would be completed without construction management and inspection, which is not recommended.
FISCAL EFFECTS
The project was budgeted in FY24 using Wastewater Funds. There is sufficient budget to award this contract amendment.
