FROM: Larry L. Rice, City Manager
SUBJECT: Riverside Drive Deck Demolition
Structural Engineering ServiCes
PURPOSE: This memorandum will provide the Mayor and Council
with information to consider selecting 4 qualified engineer to
perform the subject services
BACKGROUND: The Center City Plan includes the removal of the
upper deck of Riverside Drive to open the river front in the
downtown area. The 1992 Capital Budget also includes this work.
rThe staff solicited proposals from qualified structural
engineering firms and received four proposals. The proposals
were received from Walker, Inc. , Elgin, H.W.1Lochner, Chicago,
Alfred Benesch, Chicago and Collins & Rice, Springfield. All of
the firms were chosen by the staff because of their expertise
with structures.
Several members of the staff reviewed the proposals for the work:
James Kristiansen, Public Works Director
Mel Dahl, City Engineer
Gary Miller Assistant Public Works Director
Mike Turner, Center City Development Coordinator
Ralph Ridley, Engineering Supervisor
Staff reviewed the proposals and compared such items as the
actual individuals to be assigned to the project, proposed scope
of services, past experience with this type of work and proposed
time schedule for the preparation of plops and specifications
for the removal of the upper portion of the Riverside Drive
parking structure.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The estimated cost of engineering services
for the preparation of plans and specifications to demolish the
Riverside Deck ranged from a high of $53,000 to a low of
(PP
$35, 100 . Following a meeting with Walker, Inc. , the staff has
Mayor and Members of
the City Council
April 2, 1992
Page 2 411
negotiated a contract in the amount of $35,700 . This increase
in the cost of the work is based on an increased scope of work
over the one proposed by Walker, Inc. There are sufficient
funds in the 1992 General Obligation Bond Fund ( 392-982-9943) to
pay for these services.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council
authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a contract with
Walker, Inc. , for the preparation of Plans and Specifications
for the demolition of the Riverside Drive parking deck for the
lump sum contract price of $35,700 .
