MEMORANDUM

FROM: Christopher J. Russo, City Manager (!}.."'-
DATE: December 18, 2003
RE: STORMW ATER SYSTEM DESIGN, TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND
BIDDING PROCESS FOR CENTRAL ISLAND STORMW ATER DRAINAGE
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution approving a Technical
and Economic Proposal from Beiswenger Hoch & Associates ("BH&A") for Stormwater System
Design, Technical Assistance and Bidding Process for Central Island Stormwater Drainage.
REASONS
The City has continuously experienced problems with flooding in the Central Island area, and the
plans previously designed under DERM were expensive and the success was still questionable.
As such, we contacted BH&A to remedy the situation. BH&A provided an outline of the needed
services and broke the drainage correction work into three phases. BH&A agreed to undertake
the project and has already completed Phase I - the Value Engineering and Pavement Evaluation
Report, on November 6, 2003.
BH&A now submits a proposal for Phase II and Phase III, in the total amount of One Hundred
Sixty-Seven Thousand Forty Dollars ($167,040.00). Phase II is the Final Drainage Design,
which includes preparation of all construction plans and technical specifications. Phase III is for
Technical Assistance to the City during the Bidding Process, including preparation of RFP,
preconstruction conference, public awareness conference, miscellaneous consulting, and
recommendations.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
BH&A has been previously "qualified" to provide engineering services to the City via
Resolution 99-176, and they have continued to do a commendable job for the City, especially in
the Golden Shores area.

Re: Your Memorandum of January 5, 2004
In response to your memorandum referenced above, which queries whether a contract should be
prepared for Beiswenger, Hoch & Associates, for consultant services on the Central Island
Stormwater Drainage, which proposal for services has already been approved by the City
Commission at public hearing. This a question I believe should be directed to the City Attorney for
clarification, as it involves a matter of policy since the contract is being created after approva1.
Therefore, I will forward a copy of this memo, along with your query to the City Attorney's office
for further directives.
Please accept my apologies for not responding to you earlier, but I was out of the office on vacation
and have only returned this past Monday, January 12th.
