Recommend approval of a design contract in the amount of $92,500 with Hussey Gay Bell for the Springfield Canal Wall Widening Project from the arena site to Gwinnett Street. Capital Projects will use the contract for the design of widening the Springfield Canal Wall from the arena site to Gwinnett Street.

This design contract for Hussey Gay Bell (HGB) is to extend the Springfield Canal Wall from the arena site to Gwinnett Street in preparation for the Springfield Canal Widening project. The design costs include a topographic survey, subsurface utility engineering survey, geotechnical services, all design and permitting services and construction services. The canal wall extension is needed for the canal widening to occur. The canal wall will be the same design as the wall in front of the arena.

This is a sole source because HGB performed the canal wall design for the arena under the Perkins + Will contract. This will be a continuation of the same design and work begins at the current canal wall stopping point. Hussey Gay Bell will use Coastline Consulting Services,^(C) (Pooler, GA) for 11% DBE participation on this project.

S.S. Hussey Gay Bell (Savannah, GA)^(B) $92,500.00
