3 with MGE Engineering, Inc., Countywide.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
was executed, the Consultant provided on-call structural engineering services on multiple projects. While most of
these projects have been completed, the Vasco Road Safety Improvements – Phase 2 and Upper Sand Creek Basin
projects are on-going projects that requires Consultant’s engineering services beyond the Agreement’s November
9, 2012 expiration. In order to allow these projects to continue without disruption, the contract is being extended
solely for the completion of these two projects. The Consultant needs to complete the project plans and
specifications for these projects and remain available to answer bidder questions and assist as required during the
project construction phase. The Vasco Road Safety Improvements – Phase 2 project is seeking funding for the
construction phase of the project. Upper Sand Creek Basin project will occur next year. No increase in the contract
amount is being sought.
Approval of this Consulting Services Agreement Amendment No. 3 will allow the Consultant to continue
providing structural engineering consulting services to the Vasco Road Safety Improvements – Phase 2 and Upper
Sand Creek Basin projects through December 31, 2016.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the contract amendment is not approved, the Vasco Road Safety Improvements – Phase 2 and Upper Sand Creek
Basin projects will experience delays and added costs as County solicits for new professional services which will
duplicate previous work.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Not applicable.
