DISCUSSION:
On July 30, 2002, (M&C C-19172) the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an engineering
agreement with Dannenbaum Engineering Corporation in the amount of $721,899.76, to prepare plans and
specifications for Sanitary Sewer Main 257 and 325 Middle and Upper Village Creek Parallel Relief
Alignment Study and Design.
The City Council approved amendment No. 1 for $111,800.50, (M&C C-19936) on January 20, 2004, for
additional engineering services for approximately 3,000 linear foot extension of Sanitary Sewer Main 257
alignment study and design of Sanitary sewer laterals 2389, 2484, 3694, Main 238 and Lateral 9920.
This proposed amendment will allow Dannenbaum Engineering Corporation to provide additional
engineering services for approximately 23,076 linear feet of 42-inch Sanitary Sewer Main 325, 47
manholes, five junction boxes, concrete pavement repairs and other pertinent items. This amendment also
includes special services for geotechnical studies, easement documents preparations, plans for Storm

Dannenbaum Engineering Corporation proposes to provide these additional services for a lump sum fee of
$329,406. This fee includes credits for the design of Sanitary Sewer Main 257 included in the original
contract. The Water Department decided to remove this portion of design work from the contract. City staff
