A moderate level of technical and field support is necessary to <br /> properly manage this type of construction. Black & Veatch was the architect for the project. <br /> The existing engineering services agreement between the City and Black & Veatch does not <br /> provide construction technical support. Therefore, it is proposed that the agreement be amended <br /> to provide this support at a cost not to exceed $170,750. <br /> A separate field support agreement with Homer L. Chastain and Associates, LLP, at a cost not to <br /> exceed $107,997 will also be presented to Council on September 3 to obtain the remaining <br /> services necessary to complete this project. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTION: <br /> None foreseen. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: <br /> Black&Veatch Corporation and Homer L. Chastain and Associates, LLP. <br /> STAFF REFERENCE: <br /> Keith D. Alexander, Director of Water Management, telephone 424-2863 <br /> e-mail kdalexander@decaturnet.org <br />
