Title
Resolution to Approve Amendment No. 5 to the Professional Services Agreement with Orchard, Hiltz & McCliment, Inc. ($9,500.00) for the West Park Stormwater Completion Project
Memorandum
This is to recommend approval of the attached resolution to amend the Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Orchard, Hiltz & McCliment, Inc. (OHM) for additional engineering design services to be used on the West Park Stormwater Completion Project.

Amendment No. 5 will increase the value of the PSA by $9,500.00. This amount is due to additional construction inspection performed by OHM, which was made necessary when the Contractor exceeded their allotted time to complete the project.

This additional amount, as well as the remaining balance from Amendment No. 1 ($11,820.00), was used to provide engineering services to the City for the West Park Storm System Modifications Project in order to review the design of the stormwater system and investigate the cause of the failures of the stormwater swirl concentrator units installed in 2010. OHM provided the City with a report dated August 30, 2011 outlining their recommendations.
