<br />CASE # <br /> <br />Llo3 <br /> <br />CONSIDER CONTRACT REVISIONS FOR CITY PROJECT #10-23, <br />EAST MEANDERING COMMONS PARK <br />By: Tim Himmer, City Engineer <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />This topic was discussed earlier this evening at both the HRA and in Council work session. With <br />a potential implementation plan developed to comply with the existing RTC wetland mitigation <br />permit, Council may now want to consider contract revisions for the park. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />The existing contract with W. Gohman stated that we would have the ability to add back in lump <br />sum alternates at the quoted bid price without penalty. rfthe HRA decides to move ahead with <br />the designed wetland classroom located at the east end of the park then certain items that are <br />integral to that space, which were initially not included in the contract, could be added back in. <br />The improvements include a 60' pedestrian bridge that bisects the wetland complex at a price of <br />$96,000, and two observation platforms on either side of the wetland at a price of $45,000 each. <br /> <br />Funding: <br /> <br />Consistent with the initial funding sources for this park, financing is proposed to be split 50 - 50 <br />between park dedication dollars and future COR land sales. <br /> <br />Staff Recommendation: <br /> <br />Staff recommends that the City Council add the lump sum bid alternates J (observation platform <br />B) and L (pedestrian bridge) into the existing W. Gohman contract in the amount of$141,000. <br /> <br />Council Action: <br /> <br />Motion to add the lump sum bid alternates J (observation platform B) and L (pedestrian bridge) <br />into the existing W. Gohman contract in the amount of$141,000. <br /> <br />Attachments: <br />Site Plan <br /> <br />Reviewed By: <br /> <br />City Administrator <br />Public Works Director <br />Finance Director <br /> <br />tKctS2 <br /> <br />Special CC: 6/1/10 <br />
