Body
CITY PROPOSAL:
RESOLVED, that the proper city officials are hereby authorized to amend an agreement with LHB, Inc. for additional professional engineering services for the East Ninth Street/East Eighth Street reconditioning project for an increase of $13,650 and a new total contract not to exceed of $280,598, payable from 411-035-5530; PI2017-0855 (permanent improvement fund; capital projects accounts; improvements other than buildings; 2017 permanent improvement projects, 9th Street East/8th Street East reconditioning).
Statement of Purpose
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE: This resolution authorizes an increase to the agreement with LHB, Inc. for additional professional engineering services, including inspection services, for the East Ninth Street/East Eighth Street reconditioning project from Sixth Avenue East to Woodland Avenue as needed due to the extended time to complete the construction of the project. The project involves milling of the existing pavement, placement of new bituminous, repair of catch basins, curb, gutter and sidewalks, and bringing pedestrian ramps up to ADA standards.
This project is federally funded. Due to the contractor exceeding the contract completion date, the City will be assessing liquidated damages to cover the cost of this amendment.
