The purpose of this action item is to gain council approval of the geotechnical investigation <br />needed to inform the final design and engineering of the Fox Street Project. <br /> <br />2. Background. At the April 11th, 2022 Council Work Session the Council provided direction for 2023 <br />street projects. The streets being considered for 2023 are Fox Street (Brown to Orono Orchard) and <br />Townline Road. Due to the complexities of the Fox Street Project the design effort was divided into two <br />portions: preliminary design and final design. Preliminary design work is complete and the results were <br />briefed to council on September 12th. To inform the final detailed design some additional geotechnical <br />exploration of the section abutting marshland is required. <br /> <br />3. Scope. The overall project scope is the repaving/reconstruction of Fox street between Brown and <br />Orono Orchard. The geotechnical scope of work consists 10 borings and cone penetration tests. <br /> <br />4. Cost. American Engineer Testing (AET) provided a proposal of $14,400 to complete the necessary <br />work. <br /> <br />5. Funding. Funding will come from the Pavement Management Fund as part of the overall project <br />cost. <br /> <br />6. Staff Recommendation. I recommend approval of the proposal from AET. <br /> <br />COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: <br />Move to authorize the geotechnical investigation for the Fox Street project by AET for a fee of $14,400. <br /> <br /> <br />Item No.: 4 Date: October 24, 2022 <br />Item Description: Fox Street Geotechnical Investigation (Project #23-001) <br />Presenter: Adam T.
