SUBJECT: Consider Amendment to Contract with VCE,
Inc. for the Design of the Arroyo Vista
Community Park Pedestrian Bridge
OVERVIEW
This requests approval of an amendment to the subject Agreement to

Consultant.
DISCUSSION
A. Background
Last April the City Council retained the services of VCE, Inc.
to prepare the design for the Equestrian / Pedestrian Bridge for
Arroyo Vista Community Park. The contract for those services
did not include efforts to obtain the soils reports required to
prepare this design. This task was identified as a task to be
furnished by the City.
B. Accountability
In order to better provide for accountability in the preparation
of the subject design, it is recommended that the soils reports
required for the preparation of that design be obtained by the
design consultant.
C. Fiscal Impact
1. Fee Increase: A summary of the fee increase for these
additional services is as follows:
Existing Fee: $49,746

2. Budget: The budget for this project for FY1993/94 is as
follows:
Spring / Tierra Rejada AOC (026): $200,000
L. A. Avenue AOC (027): 300,000
Project Total:
$500,000
No additional appropriations are required to approve the
proposed increase in the design fee.
3. Funding Sources: The above budget figures were "rounded -off"
from estimated amounts budgeted last year. These amounts do
not accurately reflect the approved funding ratio which is as
follows:
Spring / Tierra Rejada AOC (026): 1/3
L. A. Avenue AOC (027): 2/3
Actual costs will be distributed to these funds in accordance
with this ratio.
Staff recommends that the City Council take the following actions:
1. Approve the additional services described above and an increase
in the contract fee from $49,746 to $53,714;
2. Approve a ten per cent (10 %) contingency and authorize the City
Manager to approve additional work, if required, not to exceed
ten percent of the revised contract amount; and
3. Authorize the City Manager to sign necessary contract documents.
