Explanation:
The Department of Public Utilities (“Department”) requires on-call professional engineering support services related to water projects on an as-needed basis to continue meeting regulatory, compliance, legislative, and contractual needs. Some of the services needed can be pre-defined, however, the need for additional previously unanticipated services may arise.
The Department has determined that engineering services for the following and other similar water project tasks are necessary on an as-needed basis:
• Modeling analysis of the water distribution system
• Regulatory Compliance:
• Permit modifications or renewals
• Proactive participation in the development of new regulations
• Technical evaluations and reports to address regulatory issues
• Presentations and project status reports
• Engineering Services:
• Evaluation of new technologies
• Periodic reassessment of upgrade and re-rate programs
• Financial analysis and support for grant funding
• Preparation of technical letters, reports, and presentation materials
On August 30, 2023, the City Commission passed and adopted Resolution No. R-2023-251 which authorized the execution of continuing consulting engineering services contracts with five firms for a period of five years for the Water Treatment Plant and Southern Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant projects, one of the firms being Arcadis (“ARC”).
The Department requested a proposal from ARC to provide the aforementioned services for water projects on an as-needed basis. ARC submitted a proposal to provide the on-call engineering support services in an amount up to $100,000.00.
This agenda item seeks the City Commission’s approval and authorization to execute the attached Authorization to Proceed for Work Order No. ARC 24-01 with ARC in an amount up to $100,000.00 on an as-needed basis.
Fiscal Impact
Funding for this Authorization to Proceed is available in the FY 2024 Operating Budget in account number 442.400401.53600.531170.000000.000.000.
