( -/RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and
the Clerk of the Council to execute consulting agreements for right of
way appraisal services with Hennessey & Hennessey LLC and Lidgard and
Associates, Inc. for an amount not to exceed $100,000 each.
DISCUSSION
Each year the Public Works Agency manages roadway-widening projects,
which require right of way appraisal services. These appraisal services
include determining the fair market value for acquisitions of the entire
property as well as portions of properties. In addition, appraisers are
needed to determine the value of surplus city owned land for disposal
purposes.
Staff has solicited proposals from qualified firms. Two firms submitted
proposals. Staff members from the Public Works Agency and the City
Attorney's Office evaluated the proposals and rated them according to the
qualifications, past experience and capacity to perform the required
work. Based on the proposals submitted, the ratings for firms are as
follows:
