Attachment A 1"Amendment Agreement St.Charles St Watermain 4 March 12, 2009 w ' TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: Olufemi Folarin, City Manager Kyla Jacobsen, Water System Superintendent SUBJECT: First Amendment Agreement with Engineering Enterprises for St. Charles Street Water Main Replacement Project. PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members of the City Council with information to consider executing the First Amendment to the previously signed agreement with Engineering Enterprises for the St. Charles Water Main Relocation Project. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the First Amendment Agreement with Engineering Enterprises, Inc. in the amount of$50,396. BACKGROUND An agreement with Engineering Enterprises, Inc. was authorized by the City Council at the September 25, 2007 meeting in an amount not to exceed $25,000. The agreement was to provide engineering services to design a water main to replace the existing 10" water main along the west side of St. Charles Street from just north of the Soo Line/Metra train tracks and connecting to the existing line on Hammond Street. Like the existing main, this main will pass beneath Poplar Creek. The current water main is located on private property in several areas and in very close proximity to other existing utilities. Repairs to the existing main have proven costly due to the nature of the utilities involved and the need to temporarily relocate the main away from these utilities. It is anticipated that this project will be bid and constructed in 2009. The design engineering included soil borings, routing investigation, wetland delineation coordination, design plans and specifications. The project has been delayed as there were difficulties in obtaining necessary easements to complete the water main installation. It is anticipated that this project will require permits from several agencies (IDOT, IEPA, Army Corps, etc.). First Amendment Agreement with EEI for St. Charles Water Main Project March 12, 2009 Page 2 First amendment to the engineering services shall include preparation of six easement documents, bidding, and construction phase services. A copy of the Amendment along with a detailed scope of work for the First Amendment is attached. COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED None FINANCIAL IMPACT The First Amendment agreement with Engineering Enterprises for the St. Charles Street Water Main Replacement will total $50,396.
