INTRODUCED: JANUARY 9, 2012_________ BY: Leroy Garcia COUNCIL PERSON Background Paper for Proposed RESOLUTION AGENDA ITEM # M-1 DATE: JANUARY 9, 2012 DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR – EARL WILKINSON, P.E. TITLE A RESOLUTION APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT WITH SHORT ELLIOT HENDRICKSON, INC. (SEH), FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES ASSOCIATED WITH THE DILLON DRIVE/I-25 INTERCHANGE FINAL DESIGN – PROJECT NO. 07-054 (DT0802) IN THE AMOUNT OF $176,585.76 ISSUE Should the City Council approve an amendment (Contract Modification Order) to the existing agreement with Short Elliott Hendrickson, Inc. in the amount of $176,585.76? RECOMMENDATION Approval of this Resolution. BACKGROUND Currently SEH is under contract to perform the final design of the Dillon/I-25 Interchange. The preliminary design for the eastside one-way (northbound) frontage road was to use a set of high retaining walls with an embankment sandwiched between. It now appears that a series of bridges will be more cost effective, but will require additional engineering costs. This Resolution will amend SEH’s contract to provide for the bridge design fees. FINANCIAL IMPACT The City has received a grant from the Federal Highway Administration for $5.427 million to pay for the study and design of the interchange. Previous Council action’s approved the acceptance of said grant and budgeted and appropriated the City’s required 20 % local agency match requirement. The additional cost for the added Engineering fees will be offset by the savings realized during the construction phase.
