Body

PREAMBLE

The City of Madison Engineering Division identified the Pheasant Branch Greenway project area as an area with the potential for storage and conveyance improvements to be made that will have the effect of mitigating flooding. The occurrence of flooding has been observed over the past decade and was confirmed by the Pheasant Branch Watershed Study. The ponds in the greenway system have also accumulated sediment and need to be dredged to improve their efficiency of nutrient removal and stormwater detention.

 

The City entered into an agreement with Merjent, Inc. for engineering services for the Pheasant Branch Greenway Enhancement Design (RES-23-00230).  The City Engineer requested additional engineering services and recommend that they be undertaken by Merjent, Inc. for the Pheasant Branch Greenway Enhancement Design as defined below:

 

1.                     Additional services with XP-SWMM 1D/2D modeling for the project

2.                     Develop additional alternatives, design for sanitary sewer relocation, and analyze span bridges cost benefit

3.                     Additional project meetings and administration based on a longer design schedule

4.                     Complete Relocation Order services

 

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Mayor and City Clerk are hereby authorized to execute an Amendment No. 1 to the contract between the City of Madison and Merjent, Inc. for additional design services for the Pheasant Branch Greenway Enhancement Design project.
