BACKGROUND: Nishikan Monks Engineering has provided structural engineering services
as a sub-contractor under the general architectural contact for the Vehicle Maintenance Building
and HRDC Bus Barn. The original agreement did not include welding services because at the
time of the contract we were not clear as to what the final form of the building would be.

These inspections are to verify that all the required welds were completed and that the welds
have the proper depth of penetration.

from Nishkian Monks Engineering. The contract is an hourly rate and details the needed level of
service for the project. The contract is a not to exceed amount of $400.00
The number of tests has been confirmed with the Architect and the Contractor. As per the
requirements of the Memorandum of Understanding for the project, HRDC has also approved
this proposal.

ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission.
