SUMMARY STATEMENT:
As part of the new St. Lukes Hospital expansion, St. Lukes is required to reconstruct State Street (from W. Lake to Forest) as well as construct a westbound left turn lane on W. Lake
at the State Street intersection. Staff has been working with both St. Lukes and the existing overhead franchise utilities located along the west side of State Street right-of-way
to develop plans and an implementation strategy to underground the overhead utilities on State Street (in advance of the turn lane construction). Although State Street reconstruction
has been completed, St. Lukes confirmed this Spring they plan to complete the turn lane construction in Spring 2023.
Per the City’s franchise agreement with Idaho Power, if requesting to underground existing utilities (that do not need to be relocated), the City is responsible for 100% of the conversion
costs of undergrounding existing overhead Idaho Power utilities. This agenda bill presents the construction agreement with Idaho Power to effectuate this overhead to underground conversion
project and reimburse Idaho Power $512,189, upon project completion (see attached agreement and site plans).
The attached agreement was received on 6/1/22 and is considered DRAFT as the City Attorney is finalizing their review of the agreement language. Staff will provide the final agreement
to the Council at the meeting. Approving the agreement in early June will allow Idaho Power to complete the construction work in a timely manner and progress to other City initiated
relocation/undergrounding projects throughout the City without further delay.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Execute the Construction Agreement with Idaho Power for the State Street Utility Undergrounding Project; authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents; and authorize staff to manage
change orders up to 10% over the original contract amount.
