Subject:
Authorization for the Director of Development Services to solicit proposals for Professional Civil
Engineering Services for the design of Sanitary Sewer Line Replacements/Upgrades in "E" Street,
Chandler Place, Inland Center Drive, Virginia Street, 17th Street, an alley south of Jefferson Street, and
Arrowhead A venue; and that the attached RFP format be authorized for use to solicit proposals
for future Public Works Projects.
Background:
The Sewer Collection System Master Plan (hereinafter referred to as "Sewer Master Plan") was
prepared under an agreement between the City and Psomas for the purpose of studying the City's
existing sewer system capacity, integrity and the system's ability to handle future land-use changes and
redevelopment to the year 2020. Psomas has made recommendations for improvements based on the
new land-use information provided by the City, population projections obtained from current census
data, and data captures from temporary flow monitoring the City has contracted as part of this project.
Hydraulic modeling was used to determine system deficiencies and determine sizing and alignments of
new mains to eliminate deficiencies.
Based on the results of the Sewer Master Plan study, staff recommended 24 sewer replacement/upgrade
projects for inclusion in the FY 2003/04 Capital Improvement Program with an estimated total
construction value of $5,183,200. After reviewing each of the projects, we concluded that 16 of the
sewer replacement/upgrade projects with a total construction valuation of approximately $2,722,500
could be most efficiently designed using in-house staff.
However, staff concluded that 8 of the projects with a total construction valuation of approximately
$2,460,700 are of such size or complexity that they could best be completed by an outside consultant.
The following projects are recommended to be designed by Professional Civil Engineering Consultants:
(Note: Due to the value of the work, staff is recommending that two RFP's be issued)

STAFF REPORT
(Continued)
It is anticipated that the amount of the consultant fee for each of the Agreements For Professional
Services, which may result from each RFP process, will be greater than $25,000. Under the provisions
of Chapter 3.04.085B of the Municipal Code, "Contractual services with a value in excess of twenty-
five thousand dollars must be approved by the Mayor and Common Council pursuant to Requests for
Proposals as authorized by the Mayor and Common Council. "
Attached is a copy of the proposed Request for Proposal (RFP) format for non-federally funded
projects. The format has been revised to include an allowance of two (2) additional points for local
preference out of a possible 100 points from the evaluation of proposals and also two (2) additional
points for local preference out of a possible 100 points on the selection interview. Firms that have an
office in the City, possess a City Business License and have a minimum of two (2) employees working
in the office will receive the additional 2 % local preference credit.
If authorization is given to proceed, staff believes that the sewer projects, identified above, can be
under construction by March of 2004. Staff proposes to use this document as a template for future
RFP's for sewer, as well as other Public Works Projects.
Financial Impact:
The cost of staff time necessary to prepare these RFP's and to conduct the evaluation and
recommendation for the selection process, as well as the cost of administrating the consultant
Agreements, will be charged to the respective account numbers for the projects. The account numbers
will be obtained from the Finance Department after approval of the FY 2003/04 Capital Improvement
Program.
