'\ j adminlmemo/unionOO , I / CITY OF ANDOVER REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION / DATE: November 9, 1999 AGENDA SECTION ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT Discussion Administration Richard Fursman ITEM NO. ~ . Personnel Placements REQUEST: The City Council is requested to make slight modifications on two positions for the start of2000. The following positions have continued to mature with new responsibilities and characteristics. Accounting Clerk I to Accounting Clerk: The Accounting Clerk I position was set up to provide the finance and public works departments support with input of data and general research and organizational tasks. The volume and type of work being performed on a " regular basis is consistent with the responsibility level of the Accounting Clerk position. ,,_) The only way the person in the position can be effective requires increasing the decision making autonomy found in the Accounting Clerk position. The person now filling the Accounting Clerk I position also provides computer tech, and phone system maintenance support as part of the City technology committee. The various accounting tasks being performed are at the level found in the recommended reclassification. The 2000 budget currently reflects the minor change. Building Clerk Technician from Secretary B scale to Secretary A scale: The technical support positions for the building department were originally set up as one Secretary A and one Secretary 8. The tasks assigned were significantly different with more responsibility going to the Secretary A position. The positions were modified significantly 18 months ago to create identical standards for both individuals. The advent of recognized industry standards with accredited training, skills and accountability led to the new industry classification of Building Clerk/Tech. The responsibilities of the Secretary A position did not go away with the reclassification, they were merely incorporated equally with the new classification. The essential difference between the Secretary A and Secretary B positions comes with the level of responsibility and decision making authority needed and granted to ensure tasks are completed. The position requires the individuals have minimal supervision, make several significant 'judgment' decisions daily and now carry a higher level of knowledge of the trades related to building, zoning, engineering 'and public infrastructure. The complexity and variety of tasks performed demand a high degree of attention to detail, organizational skills, and the highest level of public contact of any position. The responsibility and independent decision making demands of the position clearly meet and often exceed those required of the Secretary A position. Therefor, the '- J recommendation is to correct the scale of Building Clerk/Tech from Secretary B to Secretary A.

In any event, the City may determine to perform the Right-of-Way Restoration and shall require the Permittee to pay a Restoration Fee to provide for reimbursement of all costs associated with such Restoration. In the event Permittee elects not to perform Restoration, City may, in lieu of performing the Restoration itself, impose a fee to fully compensate for the resultant Degradation as well as for any and all additional City Costs associated therewith. Such fee for Degradation shall compensate the City for costs associated with a decrease in the useful life of the Right-of-Way caused by Excavation and shall include a Restoration Fee component. Payment of such fee does not relieve a Permittee from any Restoration obligation. It does not relieve Permittee from any Restoration Obligation, including but not limited to replacing and compacting the subgrade base material and the excavation. The Restoration Fee will not include the cost to accomplish these responsibilities. (a) City Restoration. If the City restores the Right-of-Way, the Permittee shall pay the costs thereof within thirty (30) days of billing. If, during the thirty-six (36) months following such Restoration, the Right-of-Way settles due to Permittee's Excavation or Restoration, the Permittee shall pay to the City, within thirty (30) days of billing, the cost of repairing said Right-of-Way. , , Permittee Restoration. If the Permittee chooses at the time of application for an Excavation Permit to restore the Right-of-Way itself, such Permittee shall post an additional Performance and Restoration Bond in an amount determined by the City to be sufficient to cover the cost of restoring the Right-of-Way to its pre-Excavation condition. If, twenty- four (24) months after completion of the Restoration of the Right-of- Way, the City determines that the Right-of-Way has been properly restored, the surety on the Performance and Restoration Bond posted pursuant to this Subd. 2(b) shall be released. Subd. 3. The Permittee shall perform the work according to the standards and with the materials specified by the City and in compliance with Minnesota Rule 7819.1100. The City shall have the authority to prescribe the manner and extent to the Restoration, and may do so in written procedures of general application or on a case-by-case basis. The City, in exercising this authority, shall be guided but not limited by the following standards and considerations: (b) (a) the number, size, depth and duration of the Excavations, disruptions or damage to the Right-of-Way; (b) the traffic volume carried by the Right-of-Way; the character of the neighborhood surrounding the Right-of-Way; Ie) the pre-excavation condition of the Right-of-Way; the remaining life expectancy of the Right-of-Way affected by the Excavation; / 10 , (d) whether the relative cost of the method of Restoration to the Permittee is in reasonable balance with the prevention of an accelerated depreciation of the Right-of-Way that would otherwise result from the Excavation, disturbance or damage to the Right-of-Way; and (e) the likelihood that the particular method of Restoration would be effective in slowing the depreciation of the Right-of-Way that would otherwise take place. / Notwithstanding the foregoing, the maximum limits of Restoration Methods and area requirements the City will impose are found in PUC Plates 1 to 13, shown in parts 7819.9900 to 7819.9950.

I CITY OF ANDOVER REQUEST FOR EDA ACTION DATE: May 20. 1999 ITEM NO. 5. Status of Andover Commercial Park (Phase II) Site Grading/97-2 ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT Scott Erickson, ~ ~ Engineering AGENDA SECTION Discussion Item Over the last few months we have meet a number of times with our Andover Station grading contractor, E&H Earthmovers, regarding the amount of work and costs associated with the project. There are essentially two areas where the contractor has indicated that his costs have exceeded the scope of the contract. The two areas being discussed are as follows: 1. Ability to Separate Debris: A much larger amount of debris was encountered and removed then was originally anticipated in the original contract. Under the contract the contractor was to separate the various types of debris he encountered. This would result in separate piles of tires, wood, metal, concrete, bituminous, brick, et. The contractor had the material excavated and removed to a landfill without separating the materials. He had indicated that the separation process would have been to difficult with the way the material was intermixed and had initially indicated that he would want to be paid for this work under a Miscellaneous Debris item in the contract. This item was bid at $40 per cubic yard and was not intended to be used for this amount or volume of work, Essentially it would result in 2-3 times the actual cost of the work performed. I did find it reasonable to recommend payment of the contract for the actual cost to dispose of the material with appropriate overhead and profit added, This resulted in change order #2 which is presented to the EDA tonight. 2. Ability to Screen excess Sand from Excavated Material: The contractor has indicated that the costs associated with screening the excavated debris material was much more expensive then he had indicated and that the contract was not clear in this requirement. I have discussed this process and the contract with a independent engineer and contractor and have come to the conclusion that this item could be effectively argued from both our side and the side of the contractor. Without going into lengthy detail if this issue were mediated or litigated it would be difficult to theorize the out come. With this thought and a lot of discussion we have evaluated the concept of determining what the actual cost has been to perform the clean up work for this project. We have received all of the contractors daily records of equipment and person hour breakdowns for the project along with a complete list of his expense receipts for the project. We have applied standard equipment rates and hourly charges to his records and have provided a reasonable determination of what the work performed actually costs. If we adopt the Philosophy that we would pay for the actual cost of the work performed the estimated project cost is as follows: Amount of Work Completed per Invoices and Time Records of Equipment and Employees: (Does not include Overhead and Profit) $869.821.40 '\ " J Overhead & Profit (Use 7.5% instead of the typical 15%) $65,236 Estimated Amount of Work Remaining: ESTIMATED TOTAL PROJECT COST: The estimated project cost to complete the project using contract provisions is: $1,100,000 The estimated amount the contractor has indicated as $1,300,000 his project expense Budgeted amount for the Andover Station grading is: $1,184,139 '\ j ~J ~c..ttP , , , / CITY OF ANDOVER REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION , , '-) DATE: November 9. 1999 ITEM NO.
