Consequently, it is necessary that the contract with S & C be <br />amended to make available additional inspection hours to provide the same level of <br />examination through the completion of the work. Staff is recommending that the contract with <br />S & C be amended to provide for the extra inspection hours to assure conformance with the <br />approved plans and specifications. <br /> <br />Consultant amendment <br /> <br />S & C Engineering has proposed a scope of work, to finish the inspection services, which <br />includes a fee estimate. The basis for compensation will be on a time and materials basis. This <br />amendment adds an additional $18,500.00 to the contract, bringing the new not-to-exceed <br />amount to $95,670.00. <br /> <br />Reimbursement for Consultant Fees <br /> <br />The conditions of approval and the Pre-annexation Development Agreement for the Bernal <br />Project require BIC to construct the Valley Avenue Railroad Undercrossing. Under terms of <br />a reimbursement agreement for inspection services, BIC will reimburse the City for the cost of <br />specialty inspection as part of BIC's obligation to construct the Valley Avenue Railroad <br />Undercrossing. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br /> <br />Once completed and accepted by the City, it is estimated that there will be an increase of <br />$10,500.00 per year in operating costs, due to increased maintenance of the subject roadway <br />improvements including landscaping and storm drainage pump station. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> <br />1. Approve the attached professional services contract amendment with S & C <br />Engineering to provide for an additional $18,500.00 in services. <br /> <br />2. Approve the attached Amended Reimbursement Agreement with Bernal Investment <br />Company (BIC) to reimburse the City for the cost of the amended S & C <br />Engineering contract. <br /> <br />SR:06: 198 <br />Page 3 of 4 <br />
