Commission Memorandum
REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Bob Murray, Project Engineer
Rick Hixson, City Engineer
SUBJECT: 2014 Materials Testing Project - Amendment No. 1
MEETING DATE: April 27th, 2015
AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Consent
RECOMMENDATION: Approve and authorize City Manager to sign Amendment No 1 to the
Professional Services Agreement.
BACKGROUND: Attached is a copy of the partially executed Amendment No. 1 with Morrison Maierle, Inc. for the 2014 Materials Testing Project.
In order to have better control over the testing portion of our capital improvement projects, the
City entered into a term contract with Morrison Maierle to complete the testing on all City
projects in 2014. Because of the expense and time commitment for both the City and the consultants in preparing proposals, it was decided to extend the current contract through this
construction season. The current list of projects these services are anticipated to be utilized on is
the Water Renovations Project, CTEP Project, Story Street Reconstruction Project, Street
Improvements Project, and the Curb Replacement Project. This fall/winter we will issue a new
request for proposals for the 2016-17 construction seasons.
UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None
ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission
FISCAL EFFECTS: As was detailed in Exhibit A of the original Professional Services
Agreement, the services will be billed on a unit price/hourly basis depending on the testing being
performed with a not to exceed limit of $50,000. The costs will be broken down and reimbursed from each individual project and as such spread over the Water, Sewer, and Street enterprise
funds.
