Body
Summary:
Staff is requesting the ratification of a purchase from SKE, Inc., through the Buy Board to perform sanitary and water utilities relocation on Ivy Street. The City joined into an agreement with Harris County to reconstruct Ivy Street, part of this agreement was for the City to be responsible for all utility relocation. The City rehabilitated the water and sewer before construction in order for the contractor to begin construction. During construction it was found that additional utilities were in the ROW that was unknown to the City and therefore needed to be moved to not hold up the construction due to the tight window before school starts. The purchase agreement with SKE, Inc. is for the amount of $48,202.31.
Fiscal/Budgetary Impact:
This project will be funded out of Water and Sewer contingency funds.
Recommended action
Staff recommends Council approval to purchase the services of SKE, Inc. through the Buy Board
