BACKGROUND

A professional services agreement with Strand Associates, Inc. (Strand) for providing construction-related services for the Sawyer Creek Watershed Rural II Detention Basin was awarded by the Common Council on September 12, 2023.  During the course of the Project, additional services were requested by City Staff.

ANALYSIS

The scope of services requested in this amendment include additional work to document the Construction Change Order No. 1 to Contract 23-16 to stabilize nearly 350,000 cubic yards of fill on the Clark Hill Farm Site.  Additionally, with the award of Alternates 1, 2, and 3 for Contract 23-16 at the September 12, 2023 Council Meeting, there were provisions to extend the completion date into 2025.  This amendment will cover the construction oversite through Project completion.

FISCAL IMPACT

Staff has reviewed the amendment and the costs.  The amount of this amendment is time and materials not to exceed $250,000.  The cost for these services was included in the Storm Water section of the 2023 Capital Improvements Program (Account #03210410-6804-04115/Contract Control-Storm Sewer-21-15 Sawyer Creek Watershed Detent).

RECOMMENDATION

Chapter 12 of the Municipal Code of the City of Oshkosh provides that professional services of a specialized nature, including engineering services, may be procured without the use of formal, sealed quotes.  I have reviewed the amendment and in accordance with Section 12-16 of the Municipal Code, I am hereby recommending that the Common Council approve this amendment
