Court approves $25,500 BRW contract amendment for Justice Center fire storage tank engineering

An engineering representative (speaker 16) presented contract amendment No. 4 to BRW for services related to the Justice Centerire suppression storage tank, recommending approval of a $25,500 amendment to cover subconsultant and structural engineering and coordination costs.

Speaker 16 provided a breakdown: subconsultant Jose Guerra would be paid about $13,800 to size the storage tank and provide electrical requirements, Gesner Engineering would charge about $2,000 for foundation design, and BRW services for coordination and tasks would total about $9,700. The court approved the amendment unanimously.

"The additional cost as there's a breakdown within the contract amendments, there's a sub consultant, Jose Guerra, they're charging about $13,800 ... And then, of course, then there's BRW ... And so, for the total contract amendment, number 4, for BRW is the amount of $25,500," the presenter said during the discussion. Court members confirmed this covers engineering and architect fees related to the supplemental storage system and approved the amendment.
