Agenda Item Review Form Muskegon City Commission Commission Meeting Date: October 22, 2024 Title: Additional construction engineering services for Adelaide Pointe Submitted by: Todd Myers, Deputy Director of Department: Public Works Public Works Brief Summary: Staff is requesting authorization to approve Contract Amendment No. | in the amount of $83,080 with Eng. Engineering & Surveying for additional construction engineering services related to Adelaide Pointe. Detailed Summary & Background: Eng. Engineering & Surveying was hired by the City to provide construction inspection services and collect as-constructed documentation on the city's behalf for the infrastructure that is likely to become public such as watermain, sanitary sewer and roadways, including a sanitary pump station. Many aspects of this project have been somewhat fluid in nature with multiple changes to the utility and roadway layout, modifications to the project schedule, multiple underground contractors, numerous onsite meetings to evaluate conditions, etc. Efforts were also needed to accommodate developer requests to meet intermediate milestones for events, a restaurant opening, boating events, etc. All of these factors resulted in additional construction engineering and administration costs. Eng. has requested this amendment to cover the additional costs associated with their work. Staff recommends these additional services be approved, and commends Eng. for their efforts as an invaluable partner to the City in making sure the public's interests are represented on site during this crucial project.

The additional scope of work includes additional construction engineering to oversee multiple construction crews throughout 'the site working to complete the Adelaide Pointe Utility & Roadway Extension public improvements which are still on-going. The effort also involved ongoing plan reviews due to extensive changes to the drawings and specifications was significant and not originally included within our original proposal. The additional plan reviews also required the plotting of new construction drawings on countless occasions for our inspectors and City staff to ensure the correct plans were being utilized by on-site inspectors and personnel during construction. Our original proposal for construction duration was based upon a sole inspector for an assumed 60-week construction duration at 50-hours per week which was originally intended for a multi-phased development approach. The construction inspection, administration, and engineering supervision hours were based upon these assumptions as requested in the original requests for proposal. The request for contract amendment is being requested primarily due to the presence of multiple crews from Terra Contractors and Redline Excavating, including subconsultants, throughout the site working on public improvements simultaneously necessitating multiple construction observers. The original construction budget was exceeded during our services through the end of April 2024. Although the General Contractor is not willing to provide a schedule to completion, based on our best estimates, we anticipate 10 additional weeks of construction timeframe to complete the remaining public utility and roadway improvements with the following breakdown of additional fees: Plan Reviews, Meetings, & Expenses: $25,000 Additional Construction Inspection: $46,000 Additional Construction Administration: § 7,200 Additional Engineering Supervision: $ 4,880 TOTAL: $83,080.00 The contract amendment, if approved, would adjust our contract amount from $306,250 to $389,330.
