This is for a Contract Modification No. 1 for Sidewalk, Curb, and Cobblestone Repair to Savannah River Utilities Co. (Primary), United Grounds Maintenance Services, Inc. (Secondary), and Savannah Paving Company (Tertiary) in the amount of $1,900,000.00.

The Streets Maintenance Department will use this service to allow contractors to repair sidewalks, curbs, and cobblestone/concrete streets within the City limits. The contracted repairs will help alleviate the city’s backlog of work orders, reduce liabilities, and improve neighborhood revitalization.  Additionally, the contract will be used to install new sidewalks, permanent traffic tables, requested concrete work related to Capital Improvement Projects, and general construction support for other departments. The proposed increase will help account for the accelerated rate of sidewalk repairs by having three active contractors providing repair services.  Additionally, this modification will continue to support permanent traffic table installations as part of the residential traffic calming efforts.  The increase should support efforts planned before the expiration of this contract on May 22, 2025.

Council originally approved this contract on May 23, 2024, in the amount of $2,700,000.  The total amount of this contract to date, including this modification, is $4,600,000.
