HD. FOR PROFESSIONAL SURVEYING SERVICES WITH O'DAY CONSULTANTS PROJECT NO. 3523-3 RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution No. 98 q/$ approving a consultant agreement with O'Day Consultants, a California Corporation, to provide professional surveying services. ITEM EXPLANATION: One of the key elements of the City's compliance with the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is the Pedestrian Curb Ramp Program. The City recently awarded a contract for the construction of 200 ramps in the Northwest Quadrant. In many parts of the Northwest Quadrant, the centerline tie survey monuments are located in the middle of the curb returns, and will be destroyed during construction of the ramps. The City is required by State law to replace monuments that are destroyed by construction. The law also requires that the work be done by a licensed surveyor or a registered engineer. The City requested qualification packages from consultant firms for surveying. The firms were ranked by a Selection Committee, and two firms were selected as qualified to provide on-call surveying services. For this project, O'Day Consultants was selected as the firm best qualified to provide surveying services to the City on the basis of demonstrated competence and professional qualifications. An acceptable fee was negotiated with the firm. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: The project is categorically exempt from the environmental review process under Section 15301 Class 1 (c) of the Public Resources Code (California Environmental Quality Act). FISCAL IMPACT: The agreement is for a fixed amount of $29,270. The funds for construction of the NW Quadrant ramps have already been encumbered. Current funds available for Pedestrian Curb Ramp Program are $1 15,714, so sufficient funds are available for this work. EXHIBITS: 1.
