CASSELBERRY CITY COMMISSION Minutes of September 12, 2022 — Regular Meeting Page 22 of 25 the residents will be impacted greatly. Associated Budget Amendment #22-064 is for the purpose of taking funds that were originally designated for the Windward Square Water Main Replacement Project to cover this project. The Water Main Replacement Project is already under design and the City is anticipating some ABPA (American Rescue Plan Act) funding for that project. In response to questions about the beautiful trees located in the development, Ms. Lamoureux advised that there would be some trees that would have to be removed, but they were ones that were overgrown and causing damage to the roadway and utilities; however, others that did not impair the roadways or utilities would be left. In response to other questions from the City Commission, Ms. Lamoureux stated that the quoted price was quite high; however staff had considered the feasibility of putting it back out for proposal, but determined that because Cathcart Construction was a company the City had used in the past and which the City also had an ongoing contract for emergency utility repairs, it was a better option to award the contract to them rather than chance an increase in price or getting a contractor that may not be able to do the required work. She added that the sidewalks in areas where the service lines had already been replaced by in-house staff would be replaced with this project for consistency throughout the development. Budget Impact: Budget Amendment #22-064 will increase the Renewal and Replacement Distribution and Collection Infrastructure account #402-07521-536.63-40 for Project PW 2220 Windward Square Service Line Replacement and decrease the Renewal and Replacement Distribution and Collection Infrastructure account #402-0751-536.63-40 for Project 1808 Windward Square Water Main Replacement in the amount of $2,066,130.
