ON THE WATER
MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 3, 2012
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council
FROM: Mark A. Rohloff, City Manager , 6,---7Z
RE: Amendment to Engineering Services Agreement for Feasibility Study for Proposed
Parking Lot Improvements at Riverside Parking Lot/AECOM
In February, the City entered into an engineering services agreement with AECOM to develop several
candidate parking lot layouts for the City's Riverside lot, which is located at the east side of the Oshkosh
Convention Center.
Through the course of its work, AECOM estimated the cost of construction at approximately $2.5 million,
which is higher than originally anticipated. Consequently, phased construction may become essential in
order to make the necessary improvements to the lot in a timely fashion. AECOM submitted a request for
an amendment which would expand the scope of services, in order to provide the City with design
alternatives that support a phased construction approach, including due consideration for storm water
management during construction.
The requested amendment is $10,000, which combined with the original contract value of $25,650 puts
the total contract value at $35,650. This is included in the Parking Lots Improvement line item, funded at
$350,000 in the approved 2012 Capital Improvement Program.
Section 12-16 of the new Municipal Code regarding Purchasing provides that professional services of a
specialized nature, including engineering services, may be approved by the City Manager without a
competitive bidding or quotation process. In accordance with this section of the code, I am hereby
submitting this report regarding the amendment because the amount exceeds $25,000 in the aggregate.
Please contact me if you have any questions concerning this amendment.
