CITY OF COLTON AGENDA REPORT Council Meeting of January 4, 2000 TO: Honorable Mayor and Council M_embers din APPROVAL: Henry T. Garcia, City Manageiv FROM: Daryl J. Parrish, Assistant City Manager SUBJECT: Award of Professional Services Contract to W.J. McKeever Incorpo in the Amount of $34,856 for Civil Engineering Services Associated the Proposed Center Street Extension DATE: December 22,1999 BACKGROUND: On October 19, 1999, the City Council authorized the Development Plan between the City of Colton and G.W. Singletary for Infrastructure Improvements pertaining to the Proposed Extension of Center Street located in the South 44 Annexation Area. The northern half of Center Street will be improved by the City of Colton and the southern half will be improved by the City of Riverside as the center of the street marks the jurisdictional boundary. The development plan proposed and presented to the City Council at that time included many infrastructure improvements to the South 44 Annexation Area in addition to the Center Street Project, including a new well, new water lines, a new lift station, new sewer lines, a new force main, and engineering services related to the utilities and the street project. The improvements contemplated in the overall project extend well beyond Center Street and include infrastructure improvements in the South La Cadena Avenue, Key Street and South Riverside Avenue areas. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The October 19, 1999 staff report indicated the cost for improvements on the northern half of Center Street were approximately $60,000 with the engineeringservices portion of the project estimated to be approximately $25,000. Upon receiving a proposal from W.J. McKeever Incorporated ("McKeever") the cost for engineering services for the Center Street portion of the project will be $34,856. McKeever has performed preliminary survey work and parcel work along Center Street representing private landowners in the area. Some of the work performed in the area can be applied towards the Center Street project hence reducing the amount of work necessary and thus the cost of the work to the City of Colton. Because of that, it proves beneficial in this case to waive the typical formal bidding procedure. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: None. Item #11
