3. Consideration of Ordinance to adopt the Political Subdivision Construction Alternative Act
Agenda Item Type:
Action Item
Discussion:
The attached ordinance will provide the City of Seward with two alternative project delivery methods (design-build and Construction Management at Risk). While the City is not required to use either method this ordinance creates the frame work for doing so. All language and requirements are dictated by Nebraska State Statute Section 13-2901 thru 13-2914. This Construction Manager at Risk method is the preferred delivery method of the Seward Wellness Committee. City Administrator Butcher will give a general outline of how the two methods work and why they may be appropriate for particular projects. Again, this provides the framework, but does not require the City to stray from its traditional design-bid-build process for project delivery.
