The Amendment authorizes the Board of Public <br /> Works to act as the Commission's agent, and it sets an engineering budget of$173,500 for <br /> Abonmarche to complete plans and bid specifications. <br /> In December 2013, Commission approved an agency agreement with the BPW and Supplement#1 <br /> for BSA LifeStructures to complete construction documents for Ignition Park infrastructure in the <br /> amount of$287,400. Although BSA has completed roughly 80% of the construction documents per <br /> their contract,their performance has not been satisfactory.Therefore after careful consideration, <br /> Engineering staff has terminated the contract with BSA and recommends the use of local <br /> Engineering firm, Abonmarche,to complete the construction sets. <br /> Abonmarche will complete the construction documents with the remainder of the BSA contract <br /> amount and add new scope items to the project.These include: <br /> 1. Franklin St. reconstruction and other minor items to the scope of work <br /> 2. Garst St. repaving <br /> 3. New Lighting along Sample St. <br /> The total contract amount with Abonmarche is $173,500. Staff requests approval of this amount as <br /> well as the attached Resolution and Amendment to the Addendum to the Master Agency Agreement. <br /> 227 W.JEFFERSON BLVD.
