INTER-DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM

To:Scott C. Stiles

From:William E. Murray
Dept.:City Manager 

Dept.: Public Works 
Subject:

Ratification of Amendment No. 2 to an Agreement with JIG Consultants for construction management and inspection services for reservoirs and booster pump station rehabilitation projects. (Cost: $58,400) (Action Item)  

Date:4/12/2022

OBJECTIVE

To request City Council to ratify Amendment No. 2 of the agreement with JIG Consultants to provide construction management and inspection services of reservoirs and booster pump station rehabilitation projects.

BACKGROUND

The City’s Water Services Division contracts with JIG Consultants to perform construction management and inspection for the construction of the Westhaven Reservoirs Rehabilitation Project and the Magnolia Reservoir and Booster Pump Station Rehabilitation Project.  Outside expertise is needed for inspection of the reservoir and booster pump station construction work.

DISCUSSION

During construction of the Magnolia Reservoir and Booster Pump Station Rehabilitation Project, unforeseen conditions were encountered.  Additional work includes wall to roof slab joint repair, electrical work for tennis court lights, column crack repairs, and site drainage repair.  The added construction work requires additional construction working days and inspection time.

 

An amendment to the existing agreement is required to include fee for the additional inspection work, from $533,067 to $591,467, a $58,400 increase.  The amendment will ensure JIG Consultants can provide all the services that are required for the completion of the Magnolia Reservoir and Booster Pump Station Rehabilitation Project.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

There is no impact to the General Fund. This cost will be financed with Water Funds, in the amount of $58,400. 

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the City Council:

 

  • Ratify Amendment No. 2 to the existing agreement with JIG Consultants, increasing the existing agreement amount from $533,067 to $591,467; and

 

  • Authorize the City Manager's signature on Amendment No. 2 to the professional services on behalf of the City and make minor modifications as appropriate thereto.
