Home Browse Search

December 18, 2019 Mr. Rudy Rows Page 2 of 6 Reference: Water Rate Assistance Program Feasibility Study and Comm nity Outreach Support, Amendment No.3 This scope of work will not include an economic evaluation of the customer need for a WRAP, a projection of the overall impact the WRAP will have on bill affordability, nor a detailed implementation plan. The outreach meetings will be delivered by Stantec, Hildebrand Consulting, LLC, and/or CV Strategies (or a combination thereof). The effort associated with the outreach meetings may include 1. Preparing PowerPoint presentation and supporting materials; 2. Coordinating with City Staff to develop "messaging"; 3. Producing meeting handouts; and 4. Delivering presentations at public meetings. The cost of each event will depend on the amount of new presentation material and the number of consultants that attend the event. As such, costs may range from as little as $2,000 per meeting to $5,000 per meeting. The level of effort for each event will be discussed with, and subject to approval by, the City Project Manager. It is assumed that the City will secure and coordinate the meeting locations. Project Team This project will be staffed with the same team that has been working with the City over the past year. Mark Hildebrand (of Hildebrand Consulting, LLC) will continue in his role as the Project Manager, Matthew Freiberg will continue to deliver the project as the Lead Consultant, and CV Strategies will support the development of public outreach materials on an as needed basis. David Hyder will serve as the Project Director in an advisory and quality control capacity. Stantec has additional staffing resources should the need arise. Estimated Cost of the Continued Services The presented scope of services to develop the WRAP feasibility study is estimated to require 98 labor hours for a total not -to -exceed fee (including expenses) of $22,124. The customer outreach support will be delivered on an as needed basis, with a not -to -exceed fee (including expenses) of $15,000. The total Amendment #3 not -to -exceed amount will be $37,124. Consistent with our prior services and the terms of Amendment #2, we propose to provide these services on a time and materials basis and invoice monthly. A detailed breakdown of the WRAP scope of work and proposed work plan is provided below. We can begin work on this assignment immediately on receipt of notice to proceed and anticipate the completion of the analysis prior to June 30, 2020 unless there are deviations from the scope or schedule requested by the City. Please let us know if you have any questions or comments regarding this proposal. We appreciate the opportunity to be of continued service to the City. Design with community in mind 25A-7
