Title
Resolution to Amend an Agreement with Hubbell, Roth & Clark, Inc. for the Sewage Lift Pumps Repair Project - Phase 2 at the Wastewater Treatment Plant, RFP No. 594 ($9,624.00)
Memorandum
Your approval is requested to amend a Professional Service Agreement with Hubbell, Roth & Clark, Inc. (HRC) in the amount of $9,624.00 for professional engineering services in construction support for the Sewage Lift Pumps Repair Project - Phase 2 at the City’s Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP).

While providing construction support on the project, at City staff’s request, HRC assisted in remedying unanticipated electrical wiring and timer issues and worked with the general contractor to correct problems caused by the equipment supplier and the supplier’s electrical controls contractor.
