1. Background
1.1 Tender specifications were prepared by the Engineering Services Department
and CIMA and provided to the Purchasing Services Division. The work is for the
construction of a new road section to facilitate traffic movement from a new
subdivision. This work will reduce the impact on the older section of road along
our Port Darlington East Beach waterfront park. The provision of this road is a
requirement of the Conditions of Draft Approval of the subdivision and of the
Ontario Municipal Board decision of June 2015. Funding for this road is provided
through Development Charges and directly from the developer.
1.2 Tender CL2018-1 was issued by the Purchasing Services Division and
advertised FD® -I[0 X(QFLSDWVLZ -EVW. A notification of the

1.5. In view of the Council Recess, authorization is requested to award the above
contract in accordance with Purchasing By -Law # 2015-022, Section 73, Council
Recess Procedures.
2. Analysis
2.1. Six (6) submissions were received in response to the tender call. Bids were
reviewed and all were deemed to be compliant.
2.2. Submissions were tabulated by the Purchasing Services Division (see
Attachment 1).
2.3. The results were forwarded to the Engineering Services Department for their

2.4. Upon reviewing the submissions, Engineering Services recommended removing
item A59- Decommissioning of the Existing Groundwater Monitoring Well as
Clarington had to have the work completed no later than October 31, 2018 under
the terms of our agreement with Hydro One. As a result of this deadline, the
services of a separate contractor were retained to decommission the well before
the October 31 deadline. The cost for the work is included in the total project
costs noted within the financial section.
2.5. Engineering Services and the Purchasing Services Division mutually agreed
(Attachment 2) that the low bidder, Eagleson Construction be recommended for
the award of contract CL2018-1. Eagleson Construction has successfully
completed work for the Municipality in the past.

3.2 As a result of Hydro One changing the preferred road alignment part way through
the environmental assessment, some additional design, construction and land
purchase costs were incurred. These unforeseen costs, resulted in an increase
to the overall project costs requiring additional funding. The additional funding is
to be provided through the reallocation of funds from another development
charge project, Concession Street East project, which has been delayed. It is
therefore recommended that funds be transferred from DC Funding F
Concession East Project (110-32-340-83453-7401) to cover the additional costs.
3.3 The contribution from the Developer will be collected prior to the issuance of the
Purchase Order.
3.4 Section 3 of this report has been reviewed by Trevor Pinn, Deputy Treasurer who
concurs with the funding allocation.
3.5 Queries with respect to the department needs, specifications, etc. should be
referred to the Director of Engineering Services.
4. Conclusion
4.1 It is respectfully recommended that Eagleson Construction being the lowest
compliant bid be awarded the contract for work required for the completion of
Port Darlington Road Neighbourhood Access Road in the revised amount of
$1,541,013.94 (Blended HST) as per the terms, conditions and specifications of
CI_2018-1.

The low bidder on this contract was Eagleson Construction. Based on past experience
with this contractor, we recommend the contract be awarded to Eagleson Construction
in the amount of $1,623,734.71 inclusive of HST, or $1,541,013.94 with blended HST.
Note that the costs include the 1.76% non-recoverable portion of the HST for the
Municipality of Clarington's share of the project, and the full 13% HST for the
Developer's share of the project. This low bid price reflects the deletion of Item A59 —
Decommissioning of Existing Groundwater Monitoring Well as Clarington had to have
this work completed by October 31, 2018 under the terms of our agreement with Hydro
One and staff retained the services of another contractor to complete the work before

Memo
All funding for this project is provided through Development Charge accounts or directly
from the developer. It should be noted that the provision of this road in the location
identified in CL2018-1 is a requirement of the Conditions of Draft Approval of the
subdivision and of the Ontario Municipal Board decision of June of 2015.
As noted above this project required the Municipality of Clarington to deal with Hydro
One and Infrastructure Ontario in order to complete the necessary Environmental
Assessment works and other studies necessary to complete the purchase of the
necessary land for the new road and multiuse trail. This process resulted in added
costs to the project as in our initial consultations with Hydro One they provided clear
direction where the road had to go as to not compromise their long term plans for
increased distribution towers along the corridor. Staff and our consulting team
proceeded with this direction from Hydro One to the point where Clarington was ready
to post our Notice of Completion for the Environmental Assessment but during Hydro
One's review of the material their senior staff changed Hydro One's position and stated
that the road alignment had to be on the south side of the corridor, opposite to the initial
direction provided. With this change many of the reports and preliminary alignment
design work that was done had to be redone and updated. The other unexpected cost
increase was the purchase of land from Hydro One administered through Infrastructure
Ontario. Infrastructure Ontario requires that an Across the Fence or Industrial Land
Rate method be used to assess the land being purchased from Hydro One. What this
means is that the actual lands and any constraints within it are not assessed but the
best land along hydro corridor is used to assess the value of the land you are seeking.
Originally it was estimated that the land would be less than $100,000 because it is in a
utility corridor and parts of it are environmental protection. But with the Across the
Fence method the final appraisal and eventual cost of the land was $332,927.71,
significantly higher than expected but not contestable as the Infrastructure Ontario
requirements are clearly set out. In addition to the added land costs there were
additional design costs related to the Environmental Assessment and detailed design of
roughly $50,000. The realignment of the road because of Hydro One's change in
position also resulted added construction costs related to having to construct a large
box culvert, provide screening with fending and planting for the resident south of the
corridor because the road was moved adjacent to her house. These added construction
costs amount to roughly $200,000. With these added costs additional funding for the

project was required in order to deal with all of these costs. This funding was provided
through the reallocation of funds from another development charge project that will be
delayed as a result of subdivision work not moving forward for another couple of years.
This deferred work will be rebudgeted for once the timing for the subdivisions is
confirmed.
Considering all project costs, there is sufficient funding available and the Engineering
Dept. recommends that the Purchasing Dept. move forward with award of the contract
based on the above apportionments. Should you have any further questions, please
feel free to contact the undersigned.

Subject: CL2018-01 — Port Darlington Realignment
Please see the attached Memo to David Ferguson, Purchasing Manager, regarding
award of Contract CL2018-01.
Other commitments associated with this contract are detailed in the attached cost
apportionment and include land purchase, consulting costs for municipal class
environmental assessment, contract administration and inspection, material testing,
detailed design, utility relocations, permits and contingencies. The total project cost,
including other costs and blended HST, is $2,491,002.10. Note that the costs include
the 1.76% non-recoverable portion of the HST for the Municipality of Clarington's share
of the project, and the full 13% HST for the Developer's share of the project.
It should be noted that the provision of this road in the location identified in CL2018-1 is
a requirement of the Conditions of Draft Approval of the subdivision and of the Ontario
Municipal Board decision of June of 2015.
As a result of Hydro One changing the preferred road alignment location part way
through our environmental assessment, there were some additional design,
construction and land purchase costs incurred. Additionally, the way in which
Infrastructure Ontario, who are responsible for real estate transactions for Hydro One,
calculates land costs is much different than is conventionally done and there was a
much higher land purchase cost for this project. As a result of these unforeseen issues,
there were increases in the overall project costs.
In order to accommodate these costs, funding reallocation from another development
charge project, Concession Street East urbanization, in the amount of $577,307.34 (net
of HST) was required to address the funding shortfall. Due to some delays in the
progress in development adjacent to Concession Street East, this project, with the
exception of some design costs, can be deferred and re -budgeted for when the
development is ready to proceed (anticipated sometime in 2020).

Memo
As there has been some delays in the developments both north and south of this
section of road, it is recommended that the construction commitments identified in the
2017 budget, Account Number 110-32-330-83453-7401, be released with the exception
of the monies required for the award of the CL2018-01 contract, and $125,000 that
should be retained for detailed design of the road section originally included in the
construction cost.
It is anticipated that both developments should proceed in 2020 or later, at which time
Engineering Services will re -budget for the Concession Street East construction costs.
Should you have any questions regarding this project, please let me know.

1. Background
1.1 The funding application for the Clean Water and Wastewater Funding (CWWF)
program included the completion of the Robert Adams Pond which was tendered
and awarded to Ground Force Environmental Inc. through CL2016-16. The
award of CL2016-16 had a provision to extend the work at the pond over 3 years
provided satisfactory performance by the contractor. The contractor performed
the work satisfactorily in 2016 and 2017.
1.2 Purchase order number 09854 was issued to Ground Force Environmental Inc.
for pond maintenance and sediment removal, outlet structure restoration and
minor erosion repairs for the Robert Adams Storm Pond in Courtice.
1.3 An application from the CWWF was submitted to the Province with the inclusion
of the entire works for Robert Adams Pond to be completed in one year including
additional works at the adjacent quantity pond which have been done. As the
pond work came in under the estimate that was provided as part of the CWWF
funding agreement, staff applied to the CWWF program for a scope change to
include an additional pond cleaning to the funding program. The application was
approved and staff would like to exercise Year 3 of the CL2016-16 term order
with Ground Force Environmental Inc. with an addition to the scope of work. As
noted above, Purchase order number 09854 was issued to Ground Force
Environmental Inc. for year 1 and year 2 in the amount of $317, 292.27 (inclusive
of HST). With the requested change to the scope of work the revised amount will
exceed the dollar threshold that the Chief Administrative Officer is authorized to
approve.
1.4 In view of Council Recess, authorization is requested to award a change in scope
to the above contract in accordance with Purchasing By -Law # 2015-022, Section
73, Council Recess Procedures.
1.5 The pond selected and accepted for the CWWF scope change was the Port of
Newcastle East Pond. As each pond is unique the site preparation, access
route, dewatering and coffer dam work is specific to each pond and therefore
pricing for this work is directly related to the individual site. In reviewing this pond
with Ground Force Environmental Inc. they noted they would be willing to hold
their CL2016-16 pricing with moderate increases to the standard tender items
such as sediment removal and disposal and after reviewing the design prepared
by CIMA provided a price of $127,668.32 exclusive of HST or $129,915.28 net of
HST. Staff have reviewed the price and found the price to be reasonable.
1.6 Based on our experience with pond work over the past 2 years we have been
able to provide a much more efficient design and work program and therefore
can reduce the contingency requirement considerably. The total project costs
including contingency, design, permitting, approvals, fish rescue program,
Report No: PS -018-18
contract administration and net HST costs, is $170,000.00 and is consistent with
funding available through the CWWF program.
1.7 In view of the total award amount (including year 1 and year 2) being over
$250,000 along with a change in the scope, authorization is requested to award
the above contract extension in accordance with Purchasing By -Law # 2015-022,
Section 73, Council Recess Procedures.
2. Analysis
2.1. Ground Force Environmental Inc. were provided the design, specifications and
list of items for pricing for the Port of Newcastle East Pond for review and pricing
based on their original pricing submission in 2016 for CL2016-16.
2.2. The updated pricing was provided to the Engineering Services Department for
their review and consideration and was found to be reasonable and within the
available budget.
2.3. After review and analysis of the submission by the Engineering Services
Department and the Purchasing Services Division, it was mutually agreed that
Ground Force Environmental Inc. be recommended for renewal for year 3 of
contract CL2016-16 including the change to the scope of work.
2.4. Ground Force Environmental Inc. has successfully completed work for the
Municipality in the past, specifically in 2016 and 2017 for year 1 and 2 of this
contract.

includes the construction costs of $129,915.28 (Net HST Rebate) and other
related costs such as design, inspection, contract administration, fish rescue and
