Contract Amendment with Brasfield Gorrie GC at Risk for the City Service Center

Initiator

Donna W. Newman, Director of Engineering

Recommendation

Approval is requested to amend the contract with Brassfield -Gorrie GC at Risk \n \n for the City Service Center Complex for miscellaneous maintenance work \n \n identified by City staff along the Riverwalk from the Eagle Phenix Mill area \n \n to the Trade Center.

Approval

Pending

Background

There are several specialized maintenance type items that are needed along the

Riverwalk between the Eagle Phenix Mill area and the Trade Center. This

includes but is not limited to painting of railing and other appurtenances,

concrete/ masonary repair work, electrical work, etc. It is the City's desire

to get the area cleaned up and presentable for the many visitors that will be

coming to our area.

Analysis

Brasfield- Gorrie is currently under contract with the City for the

construction of the City Service Center Complex. They are also currently doing

construction work on the Eagle Phenix Mill Project. The rationale for the

selection of this contractor is they are already doing work in the vicinity and

this minimizes conflict of two contractors working in the same limited space.

This would also save the City the cost of mobilizing a new contractor and aids

in expediting the project prior to the initiation of the White Water

Expeditions scheduled to begin Memorial Day weekend.

Financial Considerations

Funds are available in the General Fund CIP. The cost has not been determined

at this time but will be charged based on time and materials.

Projected Annual Fiscal Impact Statement

Public Works and Parks and Recreation departments currently do no have the

resouces to do the work in the time frame needed.

Legal Considerations

The City Attorney must approve the amendment to the contract.

Recommendations/ Actions

Approve the resolution authorizing the City Manager to amend the contract with

Brassfield-Gorrie for the miscellaneous maintenance work identified by City

staff along the Riverwalk from the Eagle Phenix Mill area to the Trade Center.
