That che City of Port Coquitlam extend Delcan Corporation’s contract for
engineering the reconstruction of Kingsway to include the section from
Shaughnessy to Mary Hill Road at a cost of $22,900.00.

That Council allocate $26,335.00 (including 15% contingencies) from the Road
Development Cost Charge fund for this purpose.

BACKGROUND AND COMMENTS:
Delcan are presently preparing a design for widening 580 m of Kingsway from Westwood
eastwards.

It is recommended that an additional 230 m section from Shaughnessy to Mary Hill Road be
included in their design work.

By constructing this extra section the City would benefit from grant money which is available.
Delcan could do the engineering concurrently with their present assignment including preparing
a cost estimate for the extra construction. Should the cost of the additional 230 m be within the
Cities present limits for spending, this section could also be constructed. A decision to go ahead
with the extra construction would need to be made after Delcan submit their cost estimate.

The extra cost for engineering would be $22,900.00 which is consistant with their price of
$107,428.00 for the existing contract. The new total allocation including 15% contingencies for
engineering would be $149,877.20.

It is recommended that funding for the engineering work be allocated from the Development
Cost Charge fund at this time and that funding from other sources be used in the ction
portion of this project.
