end
BACKGROUND:
On August 6, 2024 the City Council awarded the Professional Services Agreement for Engineering Design Services for the Fairmont Water & Sewer Extension Project in the amount of $76,765.00. Amendment No. 1 was approved for a net addition of $150,000.00 for construction services.
This project is being funded by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). The ARPA program requires that specific federal contract language related to termination and debarment be included in the design engineering contract. This language is not included in the current Professional Services Agreement (PSA) for the project.
The Public Service Committee will review this matter.
CONCLUSION:
Amendment No. 2 is a no cost change that adds the required contract language to the Professional Services Agreement. The additional language has been reviewed by the City of Joliet Legal Department.
RECOMMENDATION:
recommendation
Based on the above, it is recommended that the Mayor and City Council approve Amendment No. 2 for the Professional Services Agreement for Engineering Design Services for the Fairmont Water & Sewer Extension Project on behalf of V3 Companies for no change in cost.
