BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

                     Terracon Consultants, Inc., is currently under contract with the City to provide materials testing services during the construction of the East Louisiana Street Improvements and Andrews Street and Green Street Infrastructure Improvements Projects. Due to construction being prolonged, the original funding for the services has been exceeded.

                     Construction of the project began in June 2022 and the contractor has encountered numerous challenges that lead to project delays resulting in the need for prolonged materials testing services. Terracon Consultants, Inc. has only performed observation and testing when scheduled and/or required by the City.

                     Terracon Consultants, Inc. submitted a proposal for $17,225.00 for these additional services ($122,475 aggregate contract total), which has been reviewed by staff and exceeds the previously authorized not to exceed amount of $105,300.00.
