VIII. CONTINUED BUSINESS
A. REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT FOR ENGINEERING
SERVICES FOR PORTOLA AVENUE STORM DRAIN. (Continued from
the Meeting of March 28 and April 11, 1985.)
Mr. Ortega advised that this item had been twice continued to allow
staff time to negotiate with the C.V. Water District for that agency to
assume responsibility of managing the construction contract for the
Agency. This had been requested since the City didn't have the staff
available nor the expertise that the Water District had. He advised
that a contract for these services would be brought back to the Agency
for approval.
He explained the redesign of the Portola Storm Drain which reduced the
system to a 10-year storm capacity which was adequate protection. He
noted that the proposed amendment also included provision for the
preparation of utility relocation and traffic control design for detours,
etc. in the amount of $34,500. He concluded by stating that all aspects
of the contract and its proposed amendment had been reviewed by the
C.V.W.D. and that they were in concurrence.
Upon motion by Kelly, second by Wilson, the engineering services contract to
Boyle Engineering Corporation was amended for redesign of Portola Avenue storm drain
by unanimous vote of the Agency Board.
