SUBJECT: Professional Services Agreement with Scheibe Consulting, LLC., for the design of the Low Water Crossing Flood Mitigation Phase 1 Project, in the amount of $130,563.05
BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 Capital Improvement Plan included the Low Water Crossing Flood Mitigation - Phases 1 to 3 project. This project addresses three locations where localized flooding occurs. There are approximately 35 low water crossings within the city of which 19 are considered high risk. This project is to address one of those high priority locations, specifically the crossing at S. 28th Street adjacent to the Central Fire Station. This project will realign the drainage ditch to outfall toward Nolan Creek and eliminate the flooding that is creating the road to be impassable during high storms.
City staff have negotiated a professional services agreement (PSA) with Scheibe Consulting, LLC for the design and contract administration of the Low Water Crossing Flood Mitigation Phase 1 Project in the amount of $130,563.05. Scheibe has provided exceptional design and contract administration on several past Drainage projects.
