HomeMy WebLinkAbout44. Amendment No. 1 to Professional Services Agreement for Repairs of City of f Oshkosh MEMORANDUM TO. Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council FROM: Mark A. Rohloff, City Manager DATE. June 18, 2020 RE. Amendment No. 1 to Professional Services Agreement for Repairs of Leaking Water Main River Crossing/Northern Divers USA (+$13,452) The Water Distribution Division discovered a leak in the water main crossing of the Fox River during routine inspections of the crossings. The leak was determined to be within the Fox River, making repairs by Water Distribution Staff not possible. Staff contacted multiple diving companies that have responded to recent projects or worked on projects in the past. Northern Divers was selected to complete the work based on the cost of the dive team and the need to not provide significant additional staff and equipment. The original estimate included two (2) days of work. The excavation of the main was slowed significantly by debris located in the area of the water main. Additionally, the leak was located at a mechanical joint that was covered with a tar-like product that required removal prior to completing the repair. These conditions resulted in four(4)hours of overtime and an extra day of work. Staff has reviewed the amendment and the costs. The amount of this amendment is not to exceed $13,452. This will raise the total agreement amount to $30,952. Funding is available in the 2020 Water Utility Operating Budget. Chapter 12 of the Municipal Code of the City of Oshkosh provides that professional services of a specialized nature, may be procured without the use of formal, sealed quotes. In accordance with Section 12-16 of the Code, I am hereby submitting this report regarding this professional services amendment.
