RECOMMENDATION
Approve this Resolution.
BACKGROUND
Black & Veatch entered into a contract with the City on December 27, 2005 to provide
professional engineering services for the Wastewater Department. Under that contract, Black &
Veatch designed the new treatment facility, assisted in obtaining regulatory approval, and is
providing construction management services for the project, which is presently under
construction. It is important that the engineering firm that completed the design remain involved
throughout the construction project to ensure that construction proceeds in accordance with the
rationale underlying the design. This contract extends the 2005 agreement between the City
and the Black & Veatch Corporation to provide professional engineering services for 3 years
which should be through the end of the construction project.
Work performed under this Amendment may include, but is not limited to, the following items:
1. Review and update the Master Plan for the James R. DiIorio Water Reclamation
Facility
2. Develop a Capital Improvement Plan to maintain and expand the Water Reclamation
Facility
3. Support the Wastewater Department in securing financing for construction
4. Assist City staff with project bidding, site application, and construction management
5. Assist City staff with wastewater collection system projects
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Funds for this project are available from the Sewer User Fund.
