Agenda Analysis
Analysis
This ordinance, as amended, grants the Purchasing Agent the authority to extend the term of contract number 408246 between the Department of Water and Sewerage Services and Reynolds Construction, LLC. This contract was originally awarded through competitive bid for the Biosolids facility digester design and build project.
Section 4.12.060(A) of the Metropolitan Code limits the term of contracts for services to sixty (60) months, unless otherwise approved by the Metropolitan Council. As previously amended, the contract term was set to end upon the project’s completion or sixty months after the contract began.
If this ordinance is approved, the contract term would end at project completion. The Purchasing Agent and Department of Water and Sewerage Services recommend that the contract be extended until this project is completed.
An amendment was added at the May 21 Council meeting to correct the attachment.
