DEPT: Community Services MEETING DATE: 8/19/2014 SUBMITTED BY: Steve Durian SUBMITTAL APPROVED BY: Steve Durian REVIEWED BY CITY MGR: Yes REVIEWED BY ATTORNEY (IF APPLICABLE): Yes EXHIBITS (IF APPLICABLE, ATTACHED): Contract Amendment BUDGETED EXPENDITURE CONT. FUNDING AMOUNT: $150,000 REQUESTED: $16,324 REQUESTED: $2,000 STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends adding a Phase II environmental study to the scope of work for the contract with Muller Engineering in the amount of $16,324 with an additional $2,000 contingency. SUMMARY OF THE BASIS FOR THE RECOMMENDATION FOR APPROVAL/DISAPPROVAL: During the initial design and environmental clearance effort for the 92nd and Federal intersection widening, the Phase I environmental study determined that there was contamination within the area that will be constructed. Dealing with this contamination during construction without a plan for remediation could result in schedule delays. A Phase II study will better prepare the city and its partners with the project to understand and deal with the scale of the problem of remediating contaminated soils before construction begins. This expense will be divided between the City of Federal Heights at approximately 9%, the City of Westminster at approximately 9%, and the federal government at approximately 82%. Normally this level of expenditure would be able to be approved by the City Manager, however in this case the original contract with Muller Engineering was approved by City Council and therefore can only be amended by City Council. Also, staff would normally take this item to a Council study session, however because this is a critical scheduling item, this item is being brought to Council at a regular meeting in order to save two weeks to the design schedule. ALTERNATIVES: By not doing the Phase II study, there could be delays in what will already be a challenging and impactful construction project. These delays would likely cost far more than the cost of the additional study.
