Additional Comments: This initial appropriation of $7,000,000 includes both design costs and construction costs.
Additional contingencies of $10,000 for proposal stipends to be paid to Goodwin Brothers Construction and $120,000 for a
building permit with the City of St. Louis are included in the appropriation. This is a partial funding request. A
supplemental appropriation request is planned for construction in FY2021 providing a total appropriation of $10,000,000
consisting of $500,000 in design costs, $8,995,000 in construction costs, and a total of $505,000 in contingencies. The
designer’s estimate increased over the originally planned FY2020 Budget due to moving forward the work from the
Mississippi Floodwall ORS Pump Stations Rehabilitation Phase III (12485) project, originally planned for FY2022, in order
to reduce District costs and reduce impacts to District facilities. This project is expected to be funded by Bond proceeds.
The Design-Builder has contracted with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. for engineering design professional services.
Stantec Consulting Services has a minimum 25% subcontracting goal.
