Amend contract with David Evans & Associates, Inc. for design and construction management services for the NE 42nd Ave Bridge Replacement project (amend Contract 30006826)
The City of Portland ordains:
Section 1. The Council finds:
- The NE 42nd Ave Bridge is weight restricted, restricting daily freight movement and it is considered seismically vulnerable. The bridge poses a significant barrier to active transportation users as an under-capacity link between 24,000 jobs in the Airport District to the North and the majority of the Portland residents to the south.
- On May 29th, 2019, by Ordinance No. 189520, City Council authorized a contract with DEA for design services for the Project.
- The original contract provided DEA services related to Preliminary Engineering (PE) but not for construction services.
- This amendment is made to continue DEA services for the construction phase of the project or Construction Management. DEA has completed 100% design and is very familiar with the constructability of this complex project it is in the best public interest to have DEA continue with the Construction Management of the project.
- This amendment will increase the DEA Contract No. 30006826 by an additional $153,762.20.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Council directs:
- The Commissioner-in-Charge is hereby authorized to execute an amendment to a contract with DEA Inc. for the design and construction of the NE 42nd Ave Bridge Replacement project in a form substantially similar to Exhibit A.
The Commissioner-in-Charge is authorized to execute amendments, approved as to form by the City Attorney, to the scope of the services or the terms and conditions of this Agreement, provided the changes do not increase the total project cost by twenty percent (20%) or greater.
