Discussion of Consent Agenda
and Regular Agenda Items (cont'd) (Agenda Item II)
was an issue at the Spring Planning Session and a project the city has been
interested in following through with. Mayor Farmer referenced the information
provided in the Council's packet regarding the preparation of a Request for
Proposal (RFP) requesting cost estimates for the right-of-way alignment map and
engineering design. At this time, Mayor Farmer requested that the city staff
respond to the advantages and disadvantages of this approach to obtaining the
construction engineer and costs for the project.
City Manager McCarty spoke before the Council on the scheduling of the
proposal on the project in that an engineer would be selected by June and
contracted with to do the right-of-way map. He added that it would then be
contemplated that within a year the design engineering would also be contracted
with this same firm. He then advised that one of the advantages of doing it this
way would be a cost savings of combining the two jobs. Another advantage would
be the coordination with one engineering firm to do the right-of-way map, setting
the alignment of the roadway, and the ultimate engineering design. So that one
engineer would be doing both projects. Another advantage that city staff sees
using one engineering firm on the package would be continued continuity dealing
with the State Highway Department. He then advised that one disadvantage would
be that it will take longer to select the engineering firm to do both items. He then
advised that another alternative would be to contract with one of the engineering
firms that the city already uses to do the right-of-way alignment map, and then
go through the selection process for the design engineering This would enable
the city to start on the project right now
There was discussion by the Council on the time factor on the preparation
of the RFP by the last regular Council meeting in June. Discussion continued on
the time factor if the city proceeded with the right-of-way map only, which could
be the second meeting in May The Council reviewed the estimated cost for the
right-of-way map and if it would have to go out on bids for this. City Manager
McCarty advised that professional engineering services did not have to go out on
bids, they are considered professional services. There was further discussion on
meeting the bidding process, and the feasibility of the engineering firm being able
to provide costs estimates on a project when the city was not sure when funds
would be available to start the project, thus could not determine a definite time
frame. City Manager McCarty explained how the RFP's would be designed so that
the engineering firms will be able to give their costs with a year's time frame.
There was further discussion by the Council on the commitment that the
engineering firms have to make for a year's period of time in their quotes, the
position that the city will be in after one year if the engineering design cannot be
Is authorized by the city, and the termination of the contract if the city cannot go
forward with the project There was further discussion on the items to consider
in the selection of an appropriate engineering firm to handle these packaged items.
The Council then discussed the city staff's recommendation on this item.
