Case #5: Consider Contract Revisions for the Reconstruction of Armstrong Boulevard <br />Improvement Project #06 -20 <br />City Engineer Himmer reviewed in the staff report that the City initially requested a proposal for <br />design services from TKDA for the reconstruction of Armstrong Boulevard improvements. <br />Since then the scope of the work has changed numerous times due to the Town Center <br />development proposals TKDA has requested an Amendment No 4 in the amount of $29,200 to <br />complete the necessary revision to the construction documents for the purposes of bidding the <br />intersection improvements. <br />Staff asked TKDA for a quote for an extension of more work on design services. TKDA has <br />declined services because they want payment for work they are owed. Staff recently received an <br />invoice form TKDA for $16,500 for services already performed. <br />Staff is asking if we cut ties with TKDA, do we pay the money due and move on and put <br />together an RFP to complete their 90% plans. <br />Staff recommends pay TKDA $10,625.46 and allow staff to do an RFP to take their plans and go <br />out for RFP's to update the plans <br />Councilmember McGlone asked what the $29,000 for. <br />City Engineer Himmer explained that is for work performed plus additional things to get it <br />through bidding. The plans are at 90% and they want the additional 10% to get final <br />construction documents done so that will be another $19,000. <br />Councilmember McGlone wanted to know what the $16,500. <br />City Engineer Himmer responded $16,500 is for staff to update those plans to our format. If we <br />pay TKDA the $10,625 we are done. <br />Councilmember McGlone asked what the time constraint is. <br />City Engineer Tim Himmer stated November 1 we will be getting the feasibility study back <br />from Legacy Christian Academy and then staff will understand what improvements will happen <br />along Armstrong west of that intersection. Then we can roll that into a construction package. <br />Motion by Chairperson Elvig to pay TKDA the $10,000 and go out for RFP's to update the plan. <br />Motion failed for more discussion. <br />Councilmember McGlone wants to understand the time constraints. <br />Councilmember Dehen asked why they think they would not get paid and wants to understand <br />this more. <br />Public Works Committee / October 19, 2010 <br />Page 5 of 6 <br />
