Title
Second Extension to the Contract for Sidewalk Construction/Replacement Services for FY 2007 (B)
This item involves a request for the Second Extension to the Contract with JoyTech Construction, Inc., for sidewalk construction/replacement services.
Explanation
The Contract dated October 4, 2004 and First Extension dated October 8, 2005 with JoyTech Construction, Inc., will expire on September 30, 2006. JoyTech Construction, Inc., has responded to the City's requests for services promptly and their services have been reliable and accurate.
The Contract allows for two one-year extensions. This is the second and final request for an Extension to the Contract.
Fiscal Note
Funding sources will be identified as needed from the City capital project budgets.
Recommendation
Recommended Motion: The City Commission: 1) authorize the City Manager to execute the Second Extension to the Contract with JoyTech Construction, Inc., for Sidewalk Construction/ Replacement Services, extending the term of the Contract from October 1, 2006 to September 30, 2007, subject to final appropriation of funds for FY 2007.
Alternative Recommendation A: The City Commission reject the recommendation for the Second Extension and direct the City Manager to secure the services of individual firms on a project-by-project basis. This would result in project delays and additional administrative costs for both projects and routine tasks that require these services.
