AGL Building Renovation Furniture Purchase
Department:Utilities
Caption:Approve the purchase of furniture, through the state contract with Modern Business
Systems, Inc., in the amount of $118,716.90, in conjunction with the renovation of
the old Atlanta Gas Light building that is to serve as the AUD maintenance operation
center.
Background:The Augusta Utilities Department (AUD) has recently purchased the old Atlanta Gas
Light building, on Wylds Road, for the purpose of centralizing the maintenance
operations of the department. The building is currently undergoing renovation and
completion is expected by the end of December, 2009. The AUD Construction &
Maintenance staff is expected to begin operations in the building by January
2010. This request will provide the needed furniture for approximately 120
employees.
Analysis:The cost provided by Modern Business Systems is reasonable and consistent in
consideration of the number of employees that are being housed. Further, the city has
been purchasing its furniture needs through Modern Business Solutions in light of
the existing state contract.
Financial Impact:Funds are available and are within budgeted amounts.
Alternatives:None Recommended
Recommendation:It is recommended to: Approve the purchase of furniture, through the state contract
with Modern Business Systems, Inc., in the amount of $118,716.90, in conjunction
with the renovation of the old Atlanta Gas Light building that is to serve as the AUD
maintenance operation center.

Approve the purchase of a 2010 Fuel and Lube Truck for the Augusta Solid Waste Facility
Department:Solid Waste
Caption:Approve the purchase of a 2010 Fuel and Lube Truck for the Augusta Solid
Waste Facility.
Background:The Augusta Solid Waste department currently operates one fuel and lube
truck. This vehicle is essential to the efficient operation of the Solid Waste
Facility. The current vehicle is nearing the end of its useful life and
replacement will become necessary.
Analysis:Augusta recently purchased, as part of bid item 08-108, a roll-off truck with
a similar chassis configuration. The only difference is that for the storage
capacity of the fuel and lube truck a few nominal factory-recommended
chassis modifications had to be made. This will allow the lube truck to
transport equipment fluids and fuel to the equipment at the facility both
safely and securely. This will allow Augusta Solid Waste to establish a fleet
of trucks that are all the same and therefore lowering the long-term
maintenance costs. Mays International, the successful bidder on the previous
bid item, has agreed to issue a credit for the roll-off configuration and
provide the chassis at the same purchase price as the truck that was
purchased previously. This will give the Solid Waste Department a 2010
vehicle at a 2008 price; further, purchasing this vehicle now will allow us to
beat the 2010 emission standards for diesel trucks.
Financial Impact:Adequate funds are available for the amount of $249,594.48. Monies must
be moved from 541-04-4210/5422510 to 541-04-4210/5422210.
Alternatives:1. Recommend purchase of the lube truck 2. Do not approve the purchase.
Recommendation:alternative 1.
Funds are Available in
the Following
Accounts:
Adequate funds are available for the amount of $249,594.48. Monies must
be moved from 541-04-4210/5422510 to 541-04-4210/5422210.

Bungalow Road (funding)
Department:Abie L. Ladson, PE, CPESC, Director of Engineering
Caption:Approve funding from the project construction account ( CPB# 323-041110-
299823595)in the amount of $28,033.77 for Beams Pavement Maintenance
Co. for the subject project as requested by AED.
Background:The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) over the past few years
has adopted the Liquid Asphalt Price Index adjustments. The Liquid Asphalt
Price Index came into existence when paving contractors in Georgia
reported that securing long-term fixed price agreements for liquid asphalt
cement was becoming increasingly difficult. The inability to secure long-
term fixed price agreements for liquid asphalt cement has caused contractors
to include contingent amounts in their bid price to accommodate unexpected
increases in liquid asphalt cement purchases. The benefit of the Liquid
Asphalt Price Index is that it takes into consideration significant material
price increases into account during the bidding process, and place
contractors on an equal competitive bidding basis. In 2008, Augusta-
Richmond County Engineering Department began including Liquid Asphalt
Price Index in its contract.
Analysis:The Bungalow Road Improvement construction began in May 2007 and
ended in May 2009. During periods from July 2008 to February 2009,
Beams Pavement Maintenance Co., along with other contractors
encountered over a 100% increase in liquid asphalt prices. This information
was verified through GDOT. With the Liquid Asphalt Price Index
adjustment, both the contractor and the county will absorb the increased
cost. The maximum the index allows is 50%at a cost of $28,033.77 for this
project.
Financial Impact:No financial impact as funds are available in the project construction
contract with Beams Pavement.
Alternatives:) Approve funding from the project construction account ( CPB# 323-
041110-299823595) in the amount of $28,033.77 for Beams Pavement
Maintenance Co. for the subject project as requested by AED. 2) Do not
approve.

Goodrich St. Raw Water Pumping Station
Department:Utilities
Caption:Authorize execution of Change Order #3 in an amount not to exceed
$60,645.00 to Crowder Construction for additional work at the Goodrich
Street Raw Water Pumping Station.
Background:In February of 2008, the Augusta Commission awarded a contract to
upgrade the existing Goodrich Street Raw Water Pumping Station. The
project includes the installation of two large diesel driven pumps and the
open bay for a future electric pump at the Raw Water Pumping Station on
Goodrich St. These diesel and electric pumps will have the capability of
pumping raw water from either the Augusta Canal or the Savannah River.
The proposed change order includes new lights on the existing intakes,
provisions for modifications to Valve Vaults 3 and 4, gutters for the new
diesel building, conduits for power and controls at the fish bypass box,
changes to the original dikes for the canal crossing, asphalt overlay, and
permanent mezzanine floor covers for engine bay # 8.
Analysis:The majority of these items were either owner requested items or
compliance agency driven. The new lights, gutters, asphalt, and mezzanine
floor covers were added to improve existing site conditions not covered in
the design that improve the employee working environment at the Raw
Water Pump Station. The conduits for the new fish bypass box were not
included in the original design and are required to operate the fish bypass
piping indentified in negotiations with FERC. The modifications to the
valve vaults and the changes to the upstream and downstream dikes during
the canal shut down were necessitated by unforeseen site conditions.
Financial Impact:Funds for the change order are included in Bond Fund, under account
number 507043410-5425110/80320115-5425110.
Alternatives:No alternatives are recommended.
Recommendation:We recommend the Commission authorize the execution of Change Order
#3 in an amount not to exceed $60,645.00 to Crowder Construction for
additional work at the Goodrich Street Raw Water Pumping Station.
