Summary & Background: Fulton County Public Works provides water services to the citizens of North Fulton County and sanitary sewer services to all the cities within Fulton County that are outside the municipal boundaries of the City of Atlanta.  The Department of Public works utilizes this standby contract to supplement the efforts of County staff.  To provide these services in an expedited manner and at an expected level of service for Fulton County customers/constituents, Public Works engages professional standby firms to assist the department’s needs.

 

Scope of Work: The standby engineering firms will furnish technical assistance by providing planning and design services for the water and sanitary sewer systems throughout North and South Fulton County on an as-needed basis.  The technical services may include preparation of reports, technical memoranda, studies, plans, drawings, and specifications for construction and improvements to Fulton County’s water distribution and wastewater collection/treatment systems.  Possible projects include improvements to water and wastewater pipelines, pumping stations, water reclamation facilities, preparing studies and providing engineering and project management assistance to County staff.

 

Community Impact: No immediate impact to the community is expected.

 

Department Recommendation: The Department of Public Works recommends approval of this item.

 

Project Implications: The Department’s ability to expeditiously address water/sanitary sewer system related needs would be compromised without approval of this item. 

 

Community Issues/Concerns: No community issues or concerns have been brought to the attention of the Public Works Department.

 

Department Issues/Concerns: Approval of this item will allow the Department of Public Works to respond to those identified needs related to the County’s water/wastewater infrastructure. 

 

Contract Modification: This is a new procurement.
