Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and the
Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with Tetra Tech, Inc. and
Daniel Boyle Engineering for water and sewer engineering services in an
amount not to exceed $300,000 for each firm.
DISCUSSION
Staff has solicited proposals for water and sewer engineering services from
eight qualified civil engineering firms; four firms replied. These services
are required to augment City staff to complete the design of water and
sewer infrastructure projects in a timely manner.
A committee comprised of personnel from the Public Works Agency reviewed
the proposals. The ratings for the four firms are as follows:

The fee schedules for the two top rated firms were compared and are
consistent, reasonable, and in line with staff's estimate. Due to the
experience of key personnel, client satisfaction and competitive rates it
is recommended that the firms of Daniel Boyle Engineering and Tetra Tech,
Inc. be retained for the required services.
