Reasons for Recommendations and Background: The Board of Supervisors on June 6, 2000 authorized the Chief Engineer to execute a Consulting Services Agreement with Harris & Associates, Inc. to provide construction engineering support for the Marsh Creek Channel Improvements Project. The original construction contract was proposed to be completed by September 2000. Due to delays the contractor should complete the work, including plantings, by February 2001. Since the project has gone on six months longer than originally anticipated, the proposed construction management costs have also increased. The County anticipates an additional $25,000.00 will be necessary to complete the construction management phase and an additional $10,000.00 to aid in the claims analysis and preparation. This increases the estimated contract cost by $35,000.00 to a new total of $126,500.00 IV. Consequences of Negative Action: If this Amendment is not approved, another means of completing the construction engineering activities would need to be identified.
