Agenda Item Brief:

Consideration and possible award of a contract to provide Construction Surveying Services for the North Truckee Drain Realignment Phase 3 Project with CFA, Inc in the amount of $275,000.  Construction of the North Truckee Drain Phase 3 Realignment Project will require a substantial amount of construction survey to ensure the project is built in the correct location which is above the capabilities of City staff.  Additionally, CFA will provide as-built surveying of the project as it is completed as a permanent record of the work.  Staff recommends approval.



Background:

The North Truckee Drain Realignment Phase 3 Project is being presented for consideration and possible award to Q&D Construction at the December 12th, 2016 City Council meeting.  If approved, work is anticipated to begin mid-January.  Due to the scope of this project, a significant amount of construction surveying will be required.

The Community Services Engineering division is not staffed nor equipped to provide the services required.  As such, CFA, Inc was asked to provide a proposal to perform these services.  A scope of work was prepared based on the proposed work schedule.  Total anticipated cost for the services is $275,000.



Analysis:

Construction surveying services are a key component for successful construction of the North Truckee Drain Realignment Phase 3 project.  These services will help insure that the project is constructed as desired in the correct location, resulting in a properly functioning project.  CFA, Inc is on the City of Sparks’ on-call surveying list.



Alternatives:
  1. City Council could accept the Construction Surveying Services contract as outlined by Staff.
  2. City Council could reject the Construction Surveying Services contract and provide direction to the City Manager.


Recommended Motion:

I move to approve the contract to provide construction surveying services for the North Truckee Drain Realignment Phase 3 Project with CFA, Inc in the amount of $275,000.
