SUBJECT:
Authorize a Professional Services Agreement in the Amount of $2,309,748.00 with CH2MHill for Storm
Water and Streetscape Capital Project Management Services (ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City
Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement in the
amount of $2,309,748.00 with CH2MHil1 for Storm Water and
streetscape Capital Project Management Services, with two options
to renew for an additional 12—month period if agreeable to both
parties.
DISCUSSION:
On September 22, 2009, (Ordinance No. 18838-09-2009) the City
Council approved the issuance and sale of $45,000,000.00 in
revenue bonds in Storm Water Revenue Bonds, Series 2009, to
fund a two—year storm water capital project program. It is
anticipated that 12 to 15 new storm water capital projects, with
estimated value of $30 million to $34 million, will be initiated in
Fiscal Year 2010 and Fiscal Year 2011. Another 12-15 new
projects are expected to be initiated in both Fiscal Year 2012 and
Fiscal Year 2013. Also, CH2MHi11 is currently managing 26 Storm
Water projects, as part of the Integrated Program Management
(IPM) contract, Phase 3, which was approved by City Council on
October 27, 2009 (M&C C-23842). These projects have an
estimated value of $80 million. When the IPM contract is
complete, project management services will also be needed for
these projects.
In addition, the City's Planning and Development Department
currently has six streetscape projects with surface drainage
requirements which require continued project management
services. Project management services have previously been
provided on these projects by a subconsultant to CH2MHi11 and
staff recommends continuing the project management services for
these projects under this contract. The proposed fee for these
services has been established at $300,000.00. Funding for the
services related to the streetscape projects will be comprised of two
sources: $150,000.00 — 2004 Bond Program: Urban Development
Funds and $150,000.00 — 2007 Critical Capital Program. In the
summer of 2009, $2,182.000.00 in Certificates of Obligation was
issued to support the City's Integrated Program Management
initiative. Based on a review of those funds, staff recommends that
$150,000.00 of that debt issued is available to support this project
managemnet contract, which is consistent with current efforts of
the IPM program to augment project management and is also
consistent with the Notice of Intent to Sell.
A Request for Proposal (RFP) to provide storm water capital
project management services was issued by the City in October of
2009. Three engineering design consultants submitted proposals
and CH2MHi11 was determined to be the most qualified consultant.
CH2MHi11 proposes to perform the project management services
on an hourly basis with a multiplier, not to exceed $2,309,748.00
for a period of 24 months after Notice to Proceed. The contract
documents also include a provision for the City to exercise an
option to renew this contract for two additional 12—month periods,
under the same terms, conditions and multiplier. The cost for the
first renewal will not exceed $1,461,391.00 and for the second
renewal will not exceed $1,484,391.00. City staff considers the fee
to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services proposed. The
renewal provisions will not apply to the streetscape projects and
those services will be provided for the initial 24—month period
only.
CH2MHil1 is in compliance with the City's M/WBE Ordinance by
committing to 38 percent M/WBE participation. The City's
established goal for the project is 15 peraent.
This project is located in ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
