Agenda Item Brief: Consideration and possible approval of professional consulting services contract for the North Truckee Drain Channel Improvements at Lillard Drive Project, to Stantec Consulting, Inc., in the amount of $120,800. Staff recommends approval.

Background: The North Truckee Drain Realignment Phase 1 Project, an integral component of the Truckee River Flood Project to the City of Sparks, was awarded on December 9, 2013. Beginning on the west side of Greg Street and ending within Larkin Circle just east of Madison Avenue, it will install 1,609 linear feet of double 10’ tall by 14’ wide reinforced concrete box culvert. The improvements to be constructed with the North Truckee Drain Channel Improvements at Lillard Drive Project consist of construction of a new concrete lined channel between Lillard Drive and the existing concrete lined channel 140-feet west of Lillard Drive, including a new water quality floating trash collection system, a new driveway and access road to the concrete lined channel, along with new fencing. These improvements are intended to work with and complement the Realignment Phase 1 Project by providing a means of capturing and removing trash before it reaches the future boxed improvements, reducing maintenance needs and ultimately benefitting the Truckee River. Stantec will also prepare hydraulic modeling of the existing and proposed improvements and prepare the necessary permitting applications.

Analysis: The attached proposal is to provide the design services for the North Truckee Drain Channel Improvements at Lillard Drive Project. Staff recommends that Council approve the design services proposal for the North Truckee Drain Channel Improvements at Lillard Drive Project to Stantec Consulting, Inc., in the amount of $120,800. A copy of the proposal and contract are attached for your review.

Alternatives: 1. City Council could approve the design services proposal for the North Truckee Drain Channel Improvements at Lillard Drive Project as outlined by Staff. 2. City Council could reject the design services proposal for the North Truckee Drain Channel Improvements at Lillard Drive Project and provide direction to the City Manager.

Recommended Motion: I move to approve the professional consulting services contract for the North Truckee Drain Channel Improvements at Lillard Drive Project to Stantec Consulting, Inc., in the amount of $120,800.
