Requested Action
Consider a Resolution approving an amendment to the contract for design services with Banister Engineering, LLC for the Antler Drive Extension Improvement Project for an amount not to exceed $10,000.00.
Recommendation
The Engineering Staff recommends approval of the Resolution.
Description/History
The original design contract with Banister Engineering, LLC was approved on March 24, 2014 with Resolution 3000-14, to design paving, drainage, water and sewer for the Antler Drive Extension improvement project in the amount of $106,000.00.
During the design of the Antler Dr. Project, the owners of the property east of Antler Dr. requested that we eliminate the open drainage channel design on their property and replace it with an underground storm water system. We informed the owners we would have to wait until the construction bids to determine if money was left in the construction budget.
Since construction bids came in less than the MEDC budget we determined we can incorporate an underground storm sewer system within the construction budget. A request was made by MEDC to have 540 feet open channel along the east side of Antler Dr. redesigned to an underground storm sewer system. This additional design will be incorporated into the existing construction of the Antler Dr. Project.
Justification
This additional design work is needed to accommodate the property owner’s request.
