The current Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) includes the 2024 Full Depth Pavement Reconstruction Project (see attached CIP summary sheet CIF-24-001). This overall project includes full depth reconstruction of Stagecoach Road, construction of a new bituminous trail, possible curb and gutter, storm sewer improvements, street lights, and other minor miscellaneous repairs and improvements. The project is identified as a 2024 construction project with funding allocated for planning and design to start in 2023.

The initial stage of planning and design will include the evaluation and feasibility for the street and bituminous trail. Staff is seeking grant funding for the bituminous trail and determination of the typical section and public engagement is needed prior to the grant deadline at the end of 2022. Therefore, advancing the project for completion of the grant application in 2022 and feasibility study is needed.

City staff needs assistance from a design consultant to complete the feasibility report and grant application. City staff has worked with WSB to develop a scope of work and professional services agreement needed to deliver the report. WSB has the experience, technical skill and capacity to provide the needed services and is part of the city's approved consultant pool. The attached Professional Services Agreement authorizes and describes the scope and fees for their work on this project.
