Staff recommends Council approve contract Amendment No. 2 with HDR Engineering, Inc. in the amount of $279,855.

W.O. 22-07 Mullowney Lane Improvements consists of reconstructing and improving Mullowney Lane from the Midland Road/South Frontage Road intersection south to Elysian Road. Mullowney Lane will be constructed to a 3-lane street including a two-way-left-turn-lane, sidewalk on the west side, 10-foot multi-use trail on the east side, curb and gutter, storm drain, irrigation, streetlights, and a signalized intersection at the Elysian Road intersection. A landscaped, traffic-calming median island is included at the Holiday Avenue/Mullowney Lane intersection, located mid-way between the South Frontage Road and Elysian Road.

Council is asked to consider executing Amendment No. 2 to the Contract for Professional Services with HDR Engineering to complete construction engineering services for W.O. 22-07 Mullowney Lane Improvements. The initial contract and Amendment No. 1 included engineering design and bidding services. The scope of work in Amendment No. 2 includes construction contract administration, construction staking, construction observation, materials testing, and preparation of record drawings.  Amendment No. 2 will bring the total not-to-exceed contract amount to $623,968.

City Council may:

• Approve Amendment No. 2 to the Contract for Professional Services with HDR Engineering, Inc.; or,
• Not approve Amendment No. 2 to the Contract for Professional Services with HDR Engineering, Inc. If the amendment to the contract is not approved, construction contract administrative services cannot be completed.

Funding for this amendment was budgeted in FY23 with Gas Tax Funds, Street Maintenance District Funds, Assessments, and Developer Contributions.  Sufficient budget is available to award the contract amendment.
