RESOLUTION APPROVING CHANGE ORDER FOR
ENGINEERING SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH
SNYDER& ASSOCIATES FOR
EAST LINCOLN WAY PROJECT
FOR THE CITY OF AMES
WHEREAS, in Spring 2002, the City entered into an agreement with Snyder&Associates for the
completion of a study that would define the project concept, impact to property owners, and costs for the
reconstruction of East Lincoln Way from the Skunk River bridge to the Interstate 35 bridge; and,
WHEREAS, the contract amount was $99,750; and,
WHEREAS,in late fall, a public meeting was held to explain the initial findings and determine the
concerns of the adjacent business owners; paramount to their concerns were questions of direct impact to
their property in terms ofpotential right-of-way purchases and access to their businesses during construction;
and,
WHEREAS, in order to address these concerns,the need for a greater level of detail was apparent
and work was initiated on the preliminary design; and,
WHEREAS, upon working to close out the preliminary design portion of the contract, it was
discovered that additional funds had been expended beyond the original contract , and the detailed work
required to address the business owners' and operators' concerns was not a part of the original scope; and,
WHEREAS, the total cost of the additional work is $34,420; and,
WHEREAS,the original total design cost will not increase as it is just a case where the preliminary
design work extended beyond the original concept.
NOW,THEREFORE,BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Ames,Iowa, that the
change order in the amount of$34,420 to the Engineering Services agreement with Snyder&Associates for
completion of the preliminary design for the East Lincoln Way Reconstruction Project is hereby approved.
