<br /> .1 I . . I . ,. - <br /> . E:., <br /> '-- <br /> Apn~ 12,2004 <br /> SubjeGt <br /> Amendment No.2 to the Consultant Agreement with Mark Thomas & Company, Inc., <br /> relating to the Ralston Avenue/Marine Parkway/Route 101 Interchange Reconfiguration <br /> Project. <br /> Recommendation <br /> Approve Amendment No.2 to the Agreement with Mark Thomas & Company, Inc., for <br /> providing supplemental consulting design engineering services for the Ralston <br /> Avenue/Marine Parkway/Route 101 Interchange Reconfiguration Project, in an amount <br /> not to exceed $48,000. <br /> Background <br /> Mark Thomas & Company (MTCo) is the Engineer of Record for this project, and was <br /> chosen as the design consultant after an intensive selection process. They have led the <br /> effort since the preparation of the environmental documents (1998), and subsequently <br /> did the final design for the project. These two main tasks were done under an <br /> agreement with the City of Belmont, (which was the lead agency for this project at that <br /> time). Redwood City is now the lead agency, and has issued a follow-up contract for <br /> the design modification after value engineering prior to the bidding process (approved <br /> '-- on July 14, 2003). Amendment 1 was approved on February 9, 2004, to add <br /> construction surveying and construction support. <br /> This Amendment will add the task of redesign of a bridge abutment, which will result in <br /> a construction cost savings of approximately $300,000. Due to time restraints with the <br /> Grant deadlines, we were unable to do this redesign prior to going out to bid. The <br /> Contractor is aware of the design modification. <br /> Alternative <br /> Council can choose not to issue Amendment No.2 to this contract, and have the <br /> abutment built as currently designed. This will forego the potential cost savings that <br /> should result in the redesign. <br /> Fiscal Impact <br /> Funds in the amount of $3.5 million are available in the 2002-03 Capital Improvement <br /> Program (CIP) budget under the Capital Project Funds to support this project. covering <br /> landscaping, environmental mitigatioll, utility relocation, and other miscellaneous <br /> expenses, including this expense. <br /> fl ~ J/J-- . <br /> . / I II. <br /> Bruce Liedstrand Ed verett <br /> , \.ëommunity Development Services Director City Manager <br /> ',-- <br /> SPV:ss <br /> sIlibrarylreportslConsultanCMark Thomas Raiston IC Amend #2 <br />
