A Resolution Authorizing The City Manager To Solicit Requests For Qualifications From Engineering Qualified Consulting Firms To Provide Engineering Design For The Chambersburg Road West Improvements Project. (first reading)
Purpose and Background
The City of Huber Heights has applied for and received a grant through MVRPC to reconstruct and widen Chambersburg Road from Old Troy Pike to the City's west corporation line. The project consists of adjusting the vertical alignment of the roadway to eliminate a crest area in the pavement, widening the roadway from 2 to 3 lanes, installing curbs, handicap ramps, storm sewer, 10' sidewalk/bikepath on the north side, 5' sidewalk on the south side, and extending the water main.
It is necessary to employ a qualified consulting engineering and land surveying firm in order to prepare plans for this needed improvement. City Staff will seek letters of interest and proposals from various engineering companies who have performed a similar type of work for the community and or surrounding cities.
It is important that this project moves forward expeditiously to ensure that the grant funding will not be placed in jeopardy.
