DISCUSSION: On November 11, 2002 (M&C C-19345), the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an engineering agreement with Carter & Burgess, Inc. in the amount of $111,069 to prepare plans and specifications for sanitary sewer mains M-272B and M15R to serve the corporate headquarters projects of Radio Shack and Pier 1. This contract was previously revised by Amendment No. 1 on July 21, 2003, in the amount of$8,900 for the design of 450 linear feet of 16-inch water line near the proposed Taylor Street turnaround by the Radio Shack Riverfront Campus Project. Amendment No. 2 will allow Carter & Burgess, Inc. to provide surveying, geotechnical investigation, and engineering design for an additional 1,350 linear feet of 54-inch sanitary sewer line, and 414 linear feet of 16-inch water line as requested by the Water Department. The 54-inch sewer, located in the Radio Shack development area in the downtown Central Business District, was constructed in 1962. A recent television inspection of the sewer line revealed that sewer main M-282 has severe pipe deterioration due to corrosion. This section of the pipe was not included in the original scope of services. Carter & Burgess, Inc. proposes to provide these services for a lump sum fee of $102,248. City staff considers this fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services proposed. Carter & Burgess, Inc. is in compliance with the City's M/WBE Ordinance by committing to an additional 16% M/WBE participation on this Amendment No. 2. The City's goal on this amendment is 15%. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Finance Director certifies that funds are available in the current capital budget, as appropriated, of the Sewer Capital Projects Fund. http://www.cfwnet.org/council_packet/Reports/mq_print.asp 3 _ 1/21/2004 TO Fund/Account/Centers FROM Fund/Account/Centers P172 531200 070172141040 $102,248.00 Submitted for City Manager's Office by: Marc Ott (8476) Originating Department Head: A.

We have also included a man-hour estimate for the recent addition of work, and a revised cost estimate for the entire project. Also attached please is the back-up documentation for the M/WBE subconsultants working with us on this project Since our contract was approved last December, the following changes have occurred: 1) The 54" relocation was extended approximately 850 linear feet, 2) the 16" waterline near Taylor and old Franklin Streets was added, and 3) approximately 500 linear feet of 54" sanitary sewer rehab located on the RadioShack Riverfront Campus site was added. Item 1 requires additional topographic design survey and geotechnical investigations. In order to keep this project on schedule, we need to send the geotech back out to the site as soon as possible. Bore hole locations will need to be re-staked by the surveyor. In the interest of time, we will initiate the additional survey and geotechnical investigations with a verbal agreement from you. Item 2 has already been approved. Contract Amendment number one addressed the additional scope of work related to this item. Item 3 addresses the City's recent request to add approximately 500 linear feet of 54" sanitary sewer rehab. This portion of the work also includes the design of three new junction boxes and the abandonment of three junction box structures. This item also includes the structural design for the extensions of sanitary sewer junction structures WF-2E and WF-2F. The actual man-hour effort for this design is attached to this letter. Surveying —Approved contract amount = $19,500. The additional topographic design survey, bore hole staking and easement preparation for amendment number two totals $6,280.00. Total surveyor budget = $25,780. Carter&Burgess,Inc Carter&Burgess Architects/Engineers,Inc. Carter&Burgess Consultants,Inc. C&B At Chit�Ei�j!dq$,i;c. I �i 7 Uo .�1.:.:1 C&B Architects/Engineers,P.C.
