Board approves $15,795 amendment for Business Campus Trail redesign; city to cover 20% up front
Summary
The board approved Amendment No. 1 to the Business Campus Trail contract, adding $15,795.25 to cover a redesign necessitated by one parcel owner’s request. The TAP-funded project is 80% federal; the city pays 20% up front and will be reimbursed.
The Wausau Board of Public Works approved Amendment No. 1 on June 16 to the contract among the city of Wausau, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation and MSA Professional Services for the Business Campus Trail East-West Connector (project ID 699-1811).
Staff explained that property acquisition from two parcels was part of the planned route; one parcel’s requested terms were judged unreasonable and staff redesigned the trail, prompting the contract increase. The total increase is $15,795.25. The project is federally funded through the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) on an 80/20 basis; staff said the city is responsible for 20% of the increase upfront and will be reimbursed.
A board member moved to approve the amendment based on staff’s description; the motion was seconded and approved on voice vote.
