To: The Honorable Mayor and Board of Commissioners From: Max L. Buchanan, PE - Director of Engineering & Public Works Subject: Consider authoizing Town Manager to execute Services Agreement for Project Development, Environmental and Engineering Services for the Main Street Improvements Project.
The Main Street upgrades project is intended to provide additional capacity and an alternate route to NC 115 (Old Statesville Road) through Downtown Huntersville by upgrading Main Street and providing connections to NC 115 at Mt. Holly Huntersville and 4th street.
After discussions with Parsons Brinckerhoff, whom previously worked on the Main Street Improvements Project, a contract for the Environmental Permitting and Engineering Services was received by Engineering & Public Works for the Main Street Improvements (Two-Way pair) Project. Parsons Brinckerhoff, Inc. has previously worked on this project with the Town and is familiar with the permitting process required to secure the required environmental permit.
It is our recommendation that the Agreement be accepted and a service contract executed so that the environmental permitting phase of the project can begin.
As represented on the attached agreement, it is projected that the total cost for the project is $280,346.53 with an anticipated completion date of 12 months from notice to proceed.
