HomeMy WebLinkAboutContract 29529 CITY SECRETARY' FORTWORTH CONTRACT NO. MEMORANDUM TO: A. Douglas Rademaker, Director DOE and Marc A. Ott, Assistant City Manager FROM: Miguel A. Domenech, P.E. DATE: December 18, 2003 RE: DESIGN FEE AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO SANITARY SEWER REHABILI- TATION CONTRACT LXVIII (68), DOE NO. 3766, WATER PROJECT NO. PS58-070580175800 The proposed amendment will allow Carter & Burgess, Inc. (C&B) to provide additional en- gineering services on the project as requested by the City. Due to repeated complaints of sanitary sewer backups received by residents of Eastwood Avenue, staff investigated the complaints and determined that the line was old and severely deteriorated. This amendment will compensate C&B for the additional effort involved with redesigning and relocating the Eastwood Avenue sewer line from an inaccessible location (behind the lots along a brick wall) into the street right-of-way, allowing for deepening of the line and easier future access for City maintenance purposes, and rerouting all the sewer ser- vice lines. Amendment No. 1 provided compensation for surveying services and design for the rerouting of lateral L-2781 along Eastwood Avenue and the Wildwood Road outfall into Greenwood Cemetery. Carter & Burgess, Inc., has requested a fee of $20,376.75 for the additional services to be provided thereby increasing the contract fee from $214,242.00 to $234,618.75. 1 believe this fee is fair and reasonable for the additional services that were provided. Please authorize this additional design fee by your signatures on the attached contract amendment form. cc: Tony Sholola, P.E., Program Manager Berdena Hamilton, Water Department Dan Pepon, Water Department _ MEMO 3642 ?`� �•`'J ��4�ii`.\`. u ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT THE CITY OF FORT WORTH * 1000 THROCKMORTON STREET * FORT WORTH, TEXAS 76102-6311 (817) 871-7941 * FAX (817) 871-7854 Printed on recycled paper AMENDMENT NO. 2 STATE OF TEXAS S CITY SECRETARY CONTRACT NO.
