John Szerlag, City Manager <br />Hans Ottinot, City Attorney <br />Jane A. Hines, City Clerk <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br /> <br />TO: The Honorable City Com <br /> <br />DATE: September 21,2006 <br /> <br />RE: CONTRACT WITH CALVIN, GIORDANO & ASSOCIATES; <br />HYDROGEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION FOR THE CENTRAL ISLAND <br />DRAINAGE AND STREET IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT <br /> <br />The City is undertaking a storm water drainage project, along with associated street improvements, <br />between 174th Street and 183rd Street West of Collins Avenue. This project will reduce flooding <br />currently occurring in this area. In addition, the new school and Active Park Projects will benefit <br />from this work. <br /> <br />One of our salient objectives inherent in all Capital Projects is to reduce change orders. And the best <br />way to accomplish this is to have bids specifications correlate closely with field conditions. Thus the <br />proposed scope of work of Calvin, Giordano is required to provide a reasonable assurance that flow <br />rates and capacity of proposed wells contained in the specifications will be functional in the field. <br /> <br />The attached scope of services includes $8,798.00 for traffic control. And while I'm leaving this <br />number in the contract, the Police Department will perform most, if not all, of this function. Thus if <br />the Police Department conducts all traffic control, there will be no charge by Calvin, Giordano & <br />Associates for this work component. <br /> <br />I recommend that this work be performed so as to produce a better bid specification. Funds are <br />available in account 40-538-5313 (Stormwater Fund - Engineering/Planning) in the 2006-07 <br />proposed Budget. <br /> <br />As always, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. <br /> <br />AJS/iw <br />cc: Hans Ottinot, City Attorney <br />Jorge L.
