Title
AUTHORIZE the CEO to execute Contract Modification No. 24 to Contract No. E0119 with the Connector Partnership Joint Venture (CPJV) Inc. to continue providing Design Support Services during Construction through FY17 for the Regional Connector Transit Corridor Project (Project), in the amount of $5,565,000 increasing the total contract value from $62,742,374 to $68,307,374.

Issue
ISSUE
Metro's Project Management staff requires continuation of services to provide Design Support Services during Construction to review the design-builder's final design and ensure compliance with Metro's technical requirements, and other technical services during construction. Execution of the recommended Contract Modification No. 24 will provide continuity of the design support services during the final design phase and construction of the Project, as well as continued third-party coordination with the City, County, stakeholders and property owners.
The recommended Board action will provide sufficient contract funding for CPJV services through June 30, 2017. Future work will be funded on a year-to-year basis. This approach will result in more accurate budgeting for each year, while providing better control over consultant services.
