To the Honorable City Council:

 

I respectfully request that your honorable Council approve a time-only extension of Contract no 160411 for construction services at Lincoln Park, from April 1, 2019  to April 1, 2021.

The agreement with Mackay Construction Services  for the construction  of Lincoln Park  was originally signed for three year commencing on April 1, 2016.  However; as Lincoln Park construction will continue into the summer of 2019, and possibly longer if punch list items need to be addressed, Mackay Construction Services will be needed for many months after the current contract termination date of  April 1, 2019.  Therefore, we would like to extend the contract term until April 1, 2021.

 

It is my understanding that according to M.G.L. c30B s. 12 and Section2-369 of the Somerville Code, which was amended by Somerville Ordinance #2005-1, we may not award or extend any contract term beyond three years without The City Council approval. 

 

Respectfully submitted,

Joseph A. Curtatone, Mayor
