Overview
Overview
Earlier this year the Village approved an Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with Edwin Hancock Engineering, Co. for Professional Engineering services for Design and Construction Engineering of the 2018 and 2019 Alley Improvements. The Engineering Division then requested a proposal from Edwin Hancock Engineering to design and manage the 2018 alley improvements project and recommends renewal of the agreement for this work.
Body
Staff Recommendation
Approve the Resolution.
Fiscal Impact
The costs for this Project are included in the FY2017 budget in the Capital Improvement Fund, Public Works Department, Engineering, for Alley Improvements account no. 3095-43780-101-570964 which has available funds for this work.
Background
Edwin Hancock Engineering has done an excellent job in designing and managing the alley projects the last three years. In March of this year the Village extended the term of the agreement with Edwin Hancock Engineering to include the design and management of the 2018 and 2019 alley improvement projects.
The recommended FY2018 budget for alley improvements provides $2,700,000 of Capital Improvement Funds, an additional $166,000 of CDBG funds for alley improvements, and an additional $50,000 of CIP funds for alley pavement patching which will fund the installation of approximately 24 alley segments based on 2017 pricing. A map of the proposed location for the 2018 alley projects is attached.
Staff has identified the locations for the proposed 2018 alley improvement project based on this proposed budget and requested a proposal from Edwin Hancock Engineering to design and manage this work. Awarding the engineering contracts in the late summer allows for the design to be completed in the winter, with the projects bid early in the year which results in the most competitive pricing from contractors, ultimately saving the Village money.
