EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On August 12, 2019, the City Manager executed an agreement with ENGEO, Incorporated (ENGEO) in the amount of $74,700 for geotechnical services related to the Seaplane Lagoon Ferry Terminal Project (Project). As a result of additional pile driving and landside work, which required additional geotechnical services, staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute an amendment to the agreement with ENGEO to increase its compensation by $23,800, for a total contract amount of $98,500.
BACKGROUND
On August 12, 2019, the City entered into a contract with ENGEO in the amount of $74,700 to provide construction administrative services, including geotechnical testing to confirm estimates of onshore and offshore subsurface conditions during construction of the Project (Exhibit 1).
Additional pile driving and other landside work require additional geotechnical services in excess of those originally contemplated in the 2019 agreement.
