Staff if requesting council authorization to enter into an agreement with WSB and Associates to
provide general muncipal engineering services for the City.
BACKGROUND:
In June of 2011, following completion of an RFP process, the City retained WSB & Associates
to serve as the City Engineer. The original agreement was for 18 months through December of
2012.
Staff has requested an extension of WSB's services for 2013. Under the terms of the agreement
WSB will provide general engineering services, detailed within the agreement, to the city based
on a fixed monthly retainer. The contract will incorporate a 24 hour work week. WSB will
charge the City $77,400 for general services through December 2013. This is an increase of
$5,000.00 over the original contract. The proposed increase is provided for within the 2013
Budget.
Services outside the scope of the general engineering are billed separately from the retainer at
WSB standard hourly rates.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is recommending approval of Resolution No. 13 -03 authorizing execution of a professional
services agreement for Municipal Engineering Services with WSB and Associates.
