Background
Under the Transportation Investment Act (TIA) the city is proposing the
construction of the new South Columbus Multi-Use Trail. Part of the design for
this trail will include the construction of two (2) trailheads. These
facilities will be located at each end of the trail and will provide restrooms
and water fountains. In addition, a former railroad bridge located near the
South Columbus Park and Albion Way is proposed to be replaced. and will need to
be redesigned.
Analysis
The design of the trailhead facilities will require the use of the
architectural firm of 2WR. Approving this agreement will allow our consultants
Heath Lineback to hire this firm as a sub-contractor and perform this necessary
work. The engineering work needed for the former railroad bridge will be
performed as an add on, as this work was not identified in the original
agreement
Financial Considerations
Funding for this work is available under the TIA budget for this project. The
supplemental agreement calls for the architectural work to be performed at a
cost of $52,000, while the bridge design price has been set at $27,000. Total
cost of this supplemental agreement is $79,000.
Projected Annual Fiscal Impact Statement
This is design work and will not require an annual fiscal impact.
Legal Considerations
The City Attorney has approved the supplemental agreement as to form.
