CASE # <br />APPROVE CONTRACT AMENDMENT FOR DESIGN OF ARMSTRONG <br />BOULEVARD IMPROVEMENTS - IMPROVEMENT PROJECT #06-20 <br />By: Leonard Linton, Civil Engineer II <br />Background: <br />The Ramsey Town Center project requires improvement of the adjoining county <br />highways. The city entered into a Joint Powers agreement with the county for these <br />improvements, with the City being responsible for coordinating the design and <br />construction of the work. The city requested a proposal for design services for the <br />Armstrong Boulevard, Ramsey Boulevard and Sunfish Lake Boulevard improvements <br />included in the Ramsey Town Center AUAR and Master Development Agreement from <br />TKDA. The proposal was accepted at the June 8, 2004 Council meeting: The case <br />included a note that the costs were for design services only and contract amendments <br />would be required as each project got closer to bidding and construction. <br />The city has received a request for Amendment No. 1 for bidding and construction <br />services on the Armstrong Boulevard Improvements. The project scope included in the <br />Joint Powers Agreement envisioned ending this project approximately 1000 feet north of <br />the Armstrong Boulevard/ Bunker Lake Boulevard Intersection. The original agreement <br />amount was $250,200. The scope of the project has been extended to end 1000 feet north <br />of the Alpine Drive/ Bunker Lake Boulevard Intersection due to the Summerset Meadows <br />and Ramsey Crossings projects. The change in scope has nearly doubled the length of <br />the project. The requested increase in fees reflects the work required to change the scope <br />of the project. The requested increase in fees is $146,677 bringing the amount of the <br />contract to a not to exceed total of $396,877. The letter detailing the changes is attached. <br />Staff Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends approval of Contract Amendment No. 1 with TKDA for the Armstrong <br />Boulevard Improvements, Improvement Project #06 -20 in the amount of $146,677. <br />Council Action: <br />Motion to approve Contract Amendment No. 1 with TKDA for the Armstrong Boulevard <br />Improvements, Improvement Project #06 -20 in the amount of $146,677. <br />Reviewed by: <br />Public Works Director/Principal City Engineer <br />CC: 10/24/06 <br />—225— <br />
