Port approves amended MOU, design-fee increases for Pier 27 cruise terminal drawings
Summary
Port staff received authorization to amend an MOU with DPW and increase design and project-management funding to complete phased construction drawings for Pier 27'the James R. Herman Cruise Terminal'with combined near-term additional funding of roughly $5.15 million to produce construction documents and early trade packages.
Port staff requested and the Commission approved amendments to the Department of Public Works (DPW) MOU and associated design contracts to carry Pier 27 (James R. Herman Cruise Terminal) design through phase 1 and phase 2 construction drawings.
John Dahl, presenting for the Port, described the immediate need to complete phase 1 construction drawings by the end of the year and phase 2 by the following February so the project can meet the schedule associated with America's Cup and other event needs. "Port staff proposes that the port commission authorize a second amendment of the MOU with DPW to carry out the cost of project management and related services through the next phase of project work," Dahl said.
Staff requested an increase in DPW project-management funding of approximately $2,111,517 (including contingency) and an increase in the design-team contract of up to $3,039,449 (including contingency), for a combined supplemental cost of about $5,150,966 to complete both phases of construction documents, develop early trade packages and produce a detailed project budget and schedule. The funding package will be drawn from a combination of 2010 revenue bond proceeds, the Port's FY 2010-12 capital budget and Port proceeds from the Watermark condominium project.
Commissioners and staff discussed sequencing, the role of the construction manager/general contractor to avoid duplication, and procedural corrections to resolution language before the final vote. The Commission approved the amended MOU and contract increases by voice vote.
Next steps: complete the phase 1 construction drawings, prepare early trade packages for bidding, and return with construction documents and budget details for continued oversight and any needed approvals.
