Commission Memorandum
REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Bob Murray, Project Engineer
Rick Hixson, City Engineer
SUBJECT: 2012 Water Renovations Field Survey Professional Services
Agreement
MEETING DATE: January 23rd, 2012
AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Consent
RECOMMENDATION: Approve and authorize City Manager to sign the Professional Services
Agreement with Morrison Maierle, Inc.
BACKGROUND: Attached is a copy of the partially executed Professional Services
Agreement with Morrison Maierle, Inc. for the 2012 Water Renovations Field Survey Project.
The document is in the City’s standard format as indicated on the enclosed completed checklist.
The designs for the City’s annual water main renovation projects are done by City Engineering
staff. We do not have the capabilities to complete the survey work and base mapping that is
necessary to perform the designs. To get that information, we compile a group of streets and
contract out the survey and base mapping services. The scope of work in this agreement will
provide us with the data we need to complete the next three years of water renovations projects.
These services were procured through the City’s consultant selection process. A Request for
Proposals was published in the Bozeman Daily Chronicle on October 2nd and 9th, with the
proposals being due on October 21st. Proposals were received from 8 firms on the project which
were distributed to a selection committee of 5 city employees. The written proposals were
scored by the selection committee and Morrison Maierle was unanimously ranked the most
qualified. Interviews were not conducted.
UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None
ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission
FISCAL EFFECTS: $72,307.88 from the Water Fund. This will come out of the $1,000,000
annual water rehab budget.
