Title
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute Supplemental Contract No. 1 with Waeltz & Prete, Inc. for the 24" Reuse Water Transmission Main - Phase 2 Project.
Body
The City has developed a master plan in order to build a reuse water system in the northeast area of Round Rock. This project, known as Phase 2 of the master plan, will connect at the termination point of the existing Phase 1 reuse line in Old Settlers Park and extend northward and connect to the existing Phase 3 reuse line near the intersection of A.W. Grimes and County Road 112. This Phase 2 project is the next step in the City's efforts in providing reuse water to this area of Round Rock.
In August of 2012, the City selected Waeltz & Prete, Inc. to design this project based on the 2012 General Utilities Professional Services Request for Qualifications. The original Contract with Waeltz & Prete was for a Preliminary Engineering Report and Feasibility Study that has been completed. That report determined the best route for the Phase 2 reuse line. This Supplemental Contract No. 1 is for the Design, Bidding, and limited Construction Phase services for the project which is approximately 11,500 feet of 24-inch reuse water line.
The City's Staff recommends approval of Supplemental Contract No. 1 with Waeltz & Prete, Inc. for the amount of $134,696.46. The City has received federal grants from the Bureau of Reclamation that will fund 25% of the total project cost. Supplemental Contract No. 1 increases the original contract of $25,910.52 to a total of $160,606.98.
Cost: $134,696.46
Source of funds: Self financed Water Construction
