| | | | | | | | Subject: Downtown Infrastructure & Public Realm Design Construction Documents |
| | | | | | | | Policy/Action Requested: Authorize the appropriate staff to enter into a contract with WSB & Associates, Inc. in the amount not to exceed $100,000 for the preparation of final design specifications, bidding documents, bidding procedures, and other reimbursable expenses for the Downtown Infrastructure & Public Realm Improvement Project. |
| | | | | | | | Recommendation: Staff received bids from both Loucks, Inc. and WSB, & Associates, Inc. Both bids were comparable in scope but staff is recommending WSB & Associates, Inc. due to the pricing structure and project timeline. |
| | | | | | | | Discussion: On January 17, 2017 the EDA directed staff to work with an engineering firm to complete construction documents and to begin the bid process on or before June 6, 2017. Once the bidding process has been finalized, staff will return to the EDA for bid award. |
| | | | | | | | Budget Impact:
The $100,000 will come from the Downtown Improvement Fund. |
