RE: Consideration of revising the original contract with Rady and Associates in the
amount of $154,750 for services related to the redesign of Sandy Lake Road and
adding $23,500 for the design of the Woodridge drainage channel for a total
revised contract amount of $178,250 and authorizing the Mayor to sign.
Date: May 1, 1995
As has previously been conveyed to City Council, there will be some cost associated with the
redesign of Sandy Lake Road. As the project currently stands, it was designed as a future six-
lane in the middle of the proposed right-of-way. Current Council action is to shift the roadway
north and design it as a four-lane roadway in a four-lane right-of-way. This will necessitate the
redesign of Sandy Lake Road. The majority of the surveying can still be salvaged, as can some
of the design of the water lines and drainage facilities. However, the guts of the plans need to
be redesigned to conform to the new placement of the roadway.
This agenda item is submitted in anticipation of the ratification of the Council consensus taken
on April 25th, 1995 to shift Sandy Lake Road north. The total cost to revise the original
contract to allow for the redesign of the roadway north is $154,750.
Because of recent complaints about erosion to the Woodridge drainage channel, I have asked the
consultant to provide a cost to include the design of improvements to the Woodridge drainage
channel in his contract. The design will be similar to the existing channel south of Mapleleaf
Drive. The cost to add the design to the contract is $23,500.
If Council approves both the revision to the original contract and the addition of the Woodridge
drainage channel the total change to the contract would be $178,250.
Staff recommends approval of the revision to the contact to Rady and Associates in the amount
of $178,250 and authorizing the Mayor to sign.
