Council approves engineering contracts for Marnell sewer, tennis courts and Washington Blvd sewer; timeline tied to MCIP funding
Summary
Council adopted multiple resolutions to retain engineering services for the Marnell area sewer project (Klaus, Pyle, Schomer, Burns & DeHaven Inc.) and to amend contracts with GPD Group for the tennis court and Washington Boulevard sewer projects; city staff said timeline depends on MCIP funding decisions expected in August.
The Mayfield Heights City Council on June 23 approved multiple resolutions to secure engineering services for several capital projects: Marnell area sewer improvements, tennis court improvements, and Washington Boulevard sewer improvements.
Resolution 2025-37 authorized a contract with Klaus, Pyle, Schomer, Burns & DeHaven Inc. to provide professional engineering services for the Marnell area sewer improvements and to amend the current contract with the GPD Group for the construction portion. Resolutions 2025-38 and 2025-39 amended and approved engineering services with GPD Group for the tennis court improvements and the Washington Boulevard sewer project, respectively.
During discussion of the Washington Boulevard sewer item, city staff member Feeney reviewed the timeline from the written proposal and noted a discrepancy in the original schedule included with the proposal. Feeney said the city applied for MCIP funding and expects the results of that application in August; he told council that "if we do get that money, the terms of that are gonna require us to complete the engineering design before the end of this year." Feeney said his written proposal included a May 2026 milestone that would need adjustment if the MCIP award requires an earlier delivery.
Councilmembers voted to suspend rules and adopt each resolution that same night. Votes on the three engineering resolutions were affirmative on roll calls; some procedural confusion about motions was clarified on the floor before final roll calls.
Resolutions: 2025-37 (Marnell area sewer engineering, contract with Klaus et al.), 2025-38 (GPD Group tennis court engineering), 2025-39 (GPD Group Washington Blvd sewer engineering).
