Taylor and Members of Roanoke City Council Roanoke, Virginia SUBJECT: Mrs. Vandegriff's request regardimg the m---~r watering of Madis~ Sch~l l~.dscaping Dear Mayor and Members of Council: During the May 4, 1992, meeting of the Roanoke City Council, Mrs. Paula Vandegriff, Madison Middle School PTA President, addressed Council. Mrs. Vandegriff requested that the Parks and Recreation Department water, during the summer months, the landscaping soon to be installed around the school's sign. The issue was referred to the City Manager. Parks and Recreation Manager Gary Fenton discussed the issue with Director of School Plants Carroll Swain, who expressed surprise that the request had been made of Council rather than of him. Since the Madison landscaping project was on school grounds, Mr. Swain stated that his staff would address any summertime watering needs. (See attachment.) W. Robert Herbert City Manager WRH/hw Attachment cc: City Attorney Director of Finance Roanoke City Public Schools Division of Business Affairs P.O. Box 13105 Roanoke, VA 24031 May 26, 1992 Mr. W. Robert Herbert City Manager 215 Church Avenue Roanoke, VA 24011 Dear Mr. Herbert: Recently Gary Fenton drew it too my attention that City Council had received a request from the Madison Middle School PTA in regard to watering some school landscaping this summer. I am unsure why the group approached City Council regarding this matter, considering that the landscaping is on school property. However, school staff is both capable of and willing to take on this task during the summer months, and it will therefore be unnecessary for any City employees to address it.

Background: City Council authorized the acquisition of six (6) parcels of land for the purpose of project construction at their regular meeting of September 23, 1991, and appropriated $150,000.00 for that purpose. City Council approved Change Order Number 1 at their regular meeting of November 18, 1991, in the amount of $16,985.00. This change order consisted of investigations and alternatives in the design of the Statesman Park Detention Basin in anticipation of compliance with the new Federal Clean Water Act. Change Order Number 2 was approved by City Council to provide for environmental assessments for the parcels of land previously approved for purchase. These were five parcels at $2,000.00 per parcel for a total of $10~000.00. II. Current Situation: ae Environmental Assessments have called to the City's attention that an area of oil contamination of the soil in an area of undetermined size exists on-line of the proposed storm drain to the retention basin. Soil penetration is unknown at the present time without further analysis and extensive core drilling. Affected interest holders and State Water Control Board have been notified. Be Total Cost of removing the contaminated soil and hauling it to the nearest certified disposal area is unkown at this time. Honorable Mayor & Members of City Council Change Order No. 3/Statesman Industrial Park Page 2 Chanqe Order Number 3 is for the engineering necessary to re-route the storm drain around the contaminated area. This additional engineering will be performed by Mattern & Craig, Inc., our current consultant engineer for this project. Enqineering Costs for re-routing the storm drain are small due to the fact that minor editing of the previous environmental assessments was required and the necessary engineering was confined to a small area. The total cost of Chanqe Order No. 3 will be $2,078.00. III. Issues in order of importance: A. Potential Liability for environmental B. Project Budqet C. Cost of Extra Services D. Fundinq cleanup. IV. Alternatives: aJ Authorize the City Manager to execute Change Order No. 3 to the current project with Mattern & Craig, Inc., in the amount of $2,078.00. 1. Potential Liability for environmental cleanup will be properly addressed. 2. Pro~ect Budqet will not be significantly affected by this work. 3.

Fundinq ls available in the Public Improvements Bonds Storm Drains 1992, Account Number 008-052-9700-9176. Do not authorize the implementation of Change Order No. 3 with Mattern & Craig, Inc., for the sum of $2,078.00. Potential Liability for environmental cleanup will remain an unknown factor with the possibility of absorbing excessive cleanup costs. 2. Project Budqet will not be affected unless environmental problems become the burden of the City. 3. Cost for Extra Services will not be an issue. 4. Fundinq will not be expended at this time. V. Recommendation: A. Authorize the City Manager to execute Change Order No. 3 in accordance with the breakdown as follows: Original Contract Amount $310,000.00 Change Order No. 1 (Approved) 16,985.00 Change Order No. 2 (Approved) 10,000.00 New Change Order No. 3 2t078.00 Contract Amount After Change Orders $339,063.00 Authorize the Director of Finance to transfer $2t078.00 from Public Improvement Bonds, Storm Drains 1992, Account Number 008-052-9700-9176 to Statesman Industrial Park Storm Drain Account Number 008-052-9656-9001.
