AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: Introduction of Proposed Ordinance 15857
NAME OF PROJECT: Park Drive Sanitary Relief (Engelholm Avenue) (12163)
LOCATION: East of Pennsylvania Avenue and St. Charles Rock Road in the City of Pagedale, Missouri
TYPE OF PROJECT: Sanitary Sewer Construction (015.0 Construction Costs)
DEPARTMENT REQUESTING ACTION: Engineering
REQUESTED ACTION:
Why is this action necessary?: Appropriates additional funds.
What does action accomplish?: Provides additional funding for the construction of a CIP project, as required by
Consent Decree.
SUMMARY EXPLANATION/BACKGROUND:
Contractor: Kolb Grading, LLC Previous District Contract: Yes
5731 Westwood Drive
St. Charles, MO 63304
Consultant: N/A
Agency: N/A
Number of bidders: N/A Low Bid: N/A High Bid: N/A
Appropriation Amount: $500,000.00 Designer’s Estimate: $4,518,000.00
Total MWBE Participation: 17.00% (MBE Goal is 17% - African American)
Armstrong Supply, LLC (African American) – 17.00% - MBE
Type of Contract: Unit Cost
Properties Affected: 33 Properties Benefiting: 950
Designed by: Burns & McDonnell Engineering Co., Inc.
The work to be done under Contract #21878 consists of the construction of approximately 2,373 lineal feet of sanitary sewers
varying in size from 18-inches to 21-inches in diameter and appurtenances. This construction is the first phase of a multi-
phase improvement program. The purpose of this project is to alleviate wet weather building backups and overcharged
sanitary sewers. This project will provide for the elimination of one (1) constructed SSO (BP-621) and provide for the future
elimination of one (1) constructed SSO (BP-451). This project is scheduled to be completed in 365 days.
FUNDING/COST SUMMARY:
Budgeted: Capital Improvement Program Budget Year: FY2020, Pg. 136 Amount: $4,870,000
Fund Name: #6660 – Sanitary Replacement Fund
Additional Comments: This additional appropriation is necessary due to the change in conditions found when tunneling
under an existing twin 10-ft x 10-ft box culvert crossing Kingshighway. Beneath the current box culvert were remnants of an
old concrete structure that appears to have been buried beneath the newer box culverts. This concrete and other large debris
impeded the advancement of the tunneling auger. To continue with the tunneling, a shaft needed to be excavated at this
location and hand tunneling performed to remove the large debris. MoDOT is reconstructing St. Charles Rock Road and MSD
sewer construction must be completed in advance of MoDOT’s work so continued progress on this issue was critical. This
supplemental request will bring the total appropriation for this project to $5,600,000.00. This project is expected to be funded
by Bond proceeds.
