ECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and
the Clerk of the Council to execute agreements with Willdan, Boyle
Engineering, and Harris & Associates for engineering, architectural and
landscaping services in the amount not to exceed $200,000 for each firm.
DISCUSSION
Staff has solicited proposals for engineering and landscaping services.
These services are required to augment City staff to complete the design
of street rehabilitation, park and facility improvement projects in a
timely manner. Qualified firms were contacted and nine firms submitted
proposals.
These proposals were reviewed by a review committee comprised of
personnel from City Agencies. The ratings for the top five firms are as
follows:

The fee rate schedules for these firms were compared. The rates are
consistent, reasonable and in line with staff's estimate. Because of the
experience of key personnel, client satisfaction and competitive rates,
it is recommended that the firms of Willdan, Boyle Engineering, and
Harris & Associates Corporation be retained for the required services.
