Rationale:
This is to amend one of the five contracts awarded to separate A/E firms Via Board Resolution Item 17.5 dated January 20, 2016. That resolution provided up to $1 million for A/E work over three years, ending January 2019. The first amendment revised and increased the contract amount to $1.5 million and extended the contract an additional 24 months, expiring December 31, 2020.

This amendment is to provide continued A/E services for three following capital improvement projects:
CIP10844 “High Tech Security Improvements” at Gorton, Lincoln, Riverside & Roosevelt High Schools, which is a $500,000 project in design and anticipated for construction in the Summer of 2019.

CIP10742 “Building Envelope, Interior & Athletic Field Upgrades” at Roosevelt High School which is nearing construction completion and CIP10745 “Reconstruction of Portions of the Building Envelope, Interior Finishes and Site Work” at Paideia School 24 which is also nearing completion.

Both of the last two CIP’s were late starts due to the timing of the DASNY funding which has pushed the construction work into the fall. Additional design services needed on both projects for added work attributed to unforeseen conditions.

The Facilities Department is anticipating the issuance of new RFP’s for A/E professionals in the spring of 2019.

The $2.0 million dollar figure indicated above is an upper limit for expenditure under this agreement and will not be encumbered unless specific tasks are assigned, via Board resolutions.
 
Funding:
CAPITAL BOND FUNDS TO BE ASSIGNED ON A PROJECT BY PROJECT BASIS UNDER SEPARATE RESOLUTIONS.
