Increase the scope of Contract No. C22300 to include the engineering hydrology study for the Monterey Avenue Storm Drain between Fred Waring Drive and the Whitewater Channel. 2. Appropriate $82,830.00 from un-obligated Fund 420 to the project account. 3. Approve the increase of Contract No. C22300 in the amount of $75,300.00. 4. Set aside at 10% contingency. Executive Summary: Monterey Avenue between Fred Waring Drive and the Whitewater Channel is scheduled for resurfacing this year. Staff has concerns regarding the adequacy of the storm drain in this particular area, and is recommending a study be conducted to determine whether or not the storm drain will require an increased pipe, prior to the resurfacing. Discussion: On May 27, 2004, City Council awarded the construction contract for the 2004 Resurfacing Program to Granite Construction, of Indio, California. Identified G:\PubWorks\PROJECTS\642-01\Staff Reports\STAFF REPORT Harris & Assoc Agreement -Eldorado West.dot Staff Report Increase Scope of Contract No. C22300 for the Monterey Avenue Storm Drain Page 2of2 June 24, 2004 within this annual program is Monterey Avenue between Fred Waring Drive and the Whitewater Channel. According to the City of Palm Desert's Master Drainage Plan the current storm drain pipe in that location may be inadequate. Staff would like to have this issue investigated prior to the resurfacing taking place. Should the storm drain need to be upgraded, street repairs would be in order and the true resurfacing would take place after the storm drain work. This would eliminate duplicate work effort, costs, and inconvenience to the public. On February 12, 2004, City Council awarded the design of the Portola Avenue, Country Club Drive, and Cook Street Storm Drain to Harris and Associates, of Irvine, California, in the amount of $393,945.00. They are currently working on this project. As the issue of Monterey Avenue is time sensitive, staff would like to increase the scope of their current contract to include this investigation. Increasing the scope of this current contract would also be cost effective as certain hydrology issues are already being investigated. Funds are available in un-obligated Fund 420. Therefore, staff recommends that City Council by minute motion, increase the scope of C22300 to include the hydrology study for the Monterey Avenue Storm Drain between Fred Waring Drive and the Whitewater Channel, authorize increase in contract amount by $75,300.00, set aside a 10% contingency, and appropriate '-82,830.00 from un-obligated Fund 420 to the project account, Sub Mark Greenwood, P.E.
