TITLE:

title

Approval of a Consultant Agreement with David Evans and Associates Inc. for the Pavement Management Project 154th Ave NE from Redmond Way to NE 85th Street (Design Phase)

 

OVERVIEW STATEMENT:

recommendation

154th Ave is a key corridor for Redmond and the pavement needs restoration. Public Works is requesting approval of a consultant contract with David Evans and Associates (DEA) for the design phase of the Pavement Management- 154th Ave NE Project No. 2414 in the amount of $300,492. The project will rehabilitate the asphalt roadway on 154th Ave NE from approximately Redmond Way bridge to NE 85th Street.   Public Works is seeking authorization to negotiate and acquire property rights for the project if needed. Property rights may be needed in case ADA curb ramp upgrades are triggered as part of the project and curb ramp improvements go beyond the city right-of-way. Temporary construction permits from private property owners may also be needed in case surface improvements like sidewalk restoration require temporary access to private property.  A competitive solicitation was completed, and DEA was selected as the most qualified vendor. This initial agreement includes the cost of the design and property rights acquisition phase. Future supplemental agreement(s) will be for the construction phase and may include construction engineering support, construction management, inspection, and special inspection services.
