PURPOSE:
City Council is requested to approve a change order to contract 2017-0040 with CPL Architects and Engineers, P.C. for the design of the renovation of the J. Edward Kitchen Operations Center customer service area due to COVID-19.
BACKGROUND:
Contract 2017-0040 in the amount of $231,318 was issued to CPL Architects and Engineers, P.C. on March 24, 2017 to design the renovation of portions of the J. Edward Kitchen Operations Center and the warehouse portion of the Soabar Building. Construction was nearly complete when the COVID-19 pandemic changed the way that the City conducts business with the public. Though the customer service area was not planned to be part of the renovation, it was determined that changes were needed to create more space for customer social distancing and installation of glass barriers between customers and employees to allow for safe business transactions where social distancing isn’t possible.
CPL Architects and Engineers, P.C. prepared a proposal in the amount of $16,750 to complete the additional design work.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Funding in the amount of $16,750 for this change order is budgeted in the Water Resources Operating Fund account 501-7011-01.5410.
RECOMMENDATION / ACTION REQUESTED:
Water Resources is requesting that City Council approve a change order to contract 2017-0040 with CPL Architects and Engineers, P.C. in the amount of $16,750.
