Background:
Approval of this resolution will authorize funding for the Dallas Salmon WWTP Effluent Discharge Improvements Project and the North Kansas Avenue Street Reconstruction Project in an amount not to exceed $126,280.
At the September 12, 2017 meeting, City Council authorized a resolution approving a construction contract with SER Construction Partners, LLC. for the construction of the Dallas Salmon WWTP Effluent Discharge Improvements Project and the North Kansas Avenue Reconstruction Project, in the amount of $6,994,440, along with a construction material testing budget of $209,830.
The concrete, soils, and steel materials, used in this project require testing in accordance with the contract documents, whereas; the City is responsible to employ and pay for services of an independent testing laboratory.
The City solicited a proposal from Terracon Consultants, Inc to perform these professional services. Terracon is one of the City’s approved short list professional service providers for geotechnical engineering services (Resolution 2017-114). Terracon is a locally operating independent testing laboratory with offices/laboratories on League City Parkway, within two miles of the projects. Terracon’s total estimated cost to perform these services for the projects is an amount not to exceed $126,280, which fees are considered reasonable for such services.
