Be it resolved by the Council of the City of Pittsburgh as follows:

A. “The Mayor and the Director of the Department of Public Works are authorized to enter into a Professional Services Agreement the (“Agreement”) between the City of Pittsburgh and AE7 Pittsburgh LLC (“AE7”) to provide architectural and engineering design services for the multi-story office build-out at 412 Boulevard of the Allies, Pittsburgh, PA 15219, for an amount no to exceed Four Hundred Thirty Two Thousand ($432,000) Dollars. Amounts broken out in Subsection F correspond to applicable unit ownership.
B. During the final phase of design, it was determined that there were layout changes needed by the user departments as well as structural drawings and calculation to be resolved before construction documents could be completed. These services were not included in the original Scope of Work, and once added, will increase the overall contract by a not to exceed additional fee of $30,000.00. The City of Pittsburgh line in Subsection F has been revised to include these additional structural engineering fees.
C. These design services will create better department adjacencies, efficiently planned purpose-built spaces, healthy and sustainable departments, and a user friendly public interface at the One-Stop-Shop for both the City and HACP.
D. The Agreement is intended to initially cover a scope of Work for the design of proposed City units and shared space unity (City and HACP) due to the City’s supervisory role over the build-out work in these spaces.
E.

In such event, the amount of compensation may be increased to an amount now to exceed Five Hundred Ninety-Six Thousand Five Hundred Seventy Six Dollars and Fifty Once Cents ($596,576.51).
