MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council
FROM: Justin Gierach, Engineering Division Manager/City Engineer
DATE: August 8, 2019
RE: Approve Professional Services Agreement for Design and
Construction Engineering Services for the Southwest Industrial Park
Strand Associates, Inc. ($489,700)
BACKGROUND
The City was awarded a grant from the United States Economic Development Administration
(EDA) to help fund infrastructure in the City's newly-expanded portion of the Southwest
Industrial Park (SWIP). The grant includes partial funding for the construction-related
engineering services and public improvements, such as street, municipal utilities, and storm
water management, to complete the roadway system in the park.
ANALYSIS
The EDA grant award will help complete the construction of the public infrastructure
improvements in the 80+ acres and significantly reduce the City's costs of the infrastructure
construction.
The EDA grant of $1,500,000 is matched by City funds of $1,500,000. This significantly reduces
the City's costs, which in turn helps the performance of TIF #23. Completion of the roadway
projects will improve the marketability of the land in the SWIP.
The timing of the project is:
Design Summer/Fall 2019
Bidding Winter/Spring 2020
Construction Spring/Summer/Fall 2020
The construction schedule aligns well with the City's plans to market the Transload site and the
completed SWIP.

Paving\Project_Information\Correspondence\Memo\19-15 Des&Const Eng Sery Memo_&8-19.docx
Working in conjunction with the Department of Community Development, a Request for
Proposal (RFP) was prepared seeking firms to provide the necessary engineering services to
design and manage the construction of the park's public infrastructure improvements.
Following EDA requirements, six (6) firms received the RFP. One (1) of the six (6) firms
responded with a proposal. After a thorough review of the proposal received, staff
recommends the award of the engineering design and construction engineering services to
Strand Associates, Inc. of Madison, Wisconsin. Strand has significant familiarity with the EDA
grant program requirements, and has demonstrated ability to navigate those requirements on
previous City of Oshkosh projects.
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost of these services is not to exceed $489,700. Funds for this project are included in the
2019 Capital improvement Program. The EDA grant will reimburse the City throughout the
course of the project. The EDA grant program requires the City to have all contracts
(engineering and construction) in place prior to submitting any reimbursement requests.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Chapter 12 of the Municipal Code of the City of Oshkosh provides that professional services of a
specialized nature, including engineering services, may be procured without the use of formal,
sealed quotes. I have reviewed the proposal and in accordance with Section 12-16 of the Code,
I am hereby recommending the Common Council approve this agreement.
Approved,
Jo Fitzpatri
Assistant City Manager

understanding of the City's expectations are as follows.
Sanitary Sewer Design will follow the City and Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources(WDNR)
requirements. Adjustments to the existing sanitary sewer will be necessary to
accommodate the new pavement.The City will design the sanitary sewer casing plan for
construction under the future rail crossing and create plan sheets to be included in the
bidding documents.
Water Main The water improvements have been installed. Valves will be adjusted to match the new
pavement grades. Hydrant locations will be reviewed based on the new roadway
alignment and adjustments made accordingly. Our design will again follow the City and
WDNR requirements, minimize future street impacts for new laterals, and confirm lateral
crossings will not conflict with other utilities.
Storm Sewer and The storm sewer design will comply with the City's goals of having the hydraulic grade
Stormwater Management line in the 10-year event be below the street,the 25-year event allow the center of the
roadway to remain dry, and the 100-year event to remain within the right of way(ROW).
The design will meet the requirements of the Municipal Code Chapter 14 and Wisconsin
Administrative Code Section NR 151. Lateral crossings will be oversized to allow for
future connections and a 70 percent impervious area will be assumed for design of the
stormwater management facilities.
Master Site Grading The two primary goals of the site grading will encourage future development by having
developable slopes no greater than 2 percent and balance the site as much as possible to
minimize the required earthwork.
Permitting The WDNR and United States Army Corps of Engineers(USACE)will be the primary
permitting authorities. Permits will be prepared for WDNR construction site erosion
control,WDNR wetland/waterways, and USACE wetland/waterways.
Plan Preparation A 20-foot horizontal, 2-foot vertical scale on full-size plans will be used. Plan and profile
sheets will be developed for street and utilities improvements. Erosion control,
restoration, and detail sheets will be developed as well. The location of the proposed and
existing utilities will be coordinated through the Engineering Division, along with private
utilities, including WPS, AT&T, and Spectrum.
Contract Manual The City of Oshkosh 2019 Standard Specifications will be the basis for the contract
manual. EDA requirements will be added and the City will submit requests for Davis-
Bacon wage rates for this project.
Stormwater Management The City of Oshkosh Municipal Code Chapter 14 and Wisconsin Administrative Code
and Erosion and Sediment Section NR 216 will guide the development of these plans.
Control Plan
Bidding Oshkosh Engineering Division will perform this task.
Environmental Concerns USACE has concurred with the wetland report provided and has made a jurisdictional
determination.The goal is to keep the wetland impacts under 10,000 SF.

Electronic geotechnical reporting will provide access and notification to
the City, engineer, and contractor reports.
To provide immediate access to project reports, PSI utilizes Construction HiveTM as
an electronic report distribution platform to provide a better experience for clients.
The Construction HiveTM system has powerful report viewing, retrieval, and searching
capabilities that allow designated users to find information in an efficient and
environmental-friendly manner.
Upon project set-up,Construction HiveTM will electronically notify designated users
when new reports are posted so they can view,down load,and forward relevant PSI test
reports. In short, Construction HiveTM provides instantaneous access to reports from
any Internet Web Browser. Designated users can specify how often they receive
reports, have the ability to establish notification alerts, download reports, and forward
reports from Construction Hive'.
Final steps in EDA process will deliver the infrastructure improvements to
further development and improve access to the transload facility.

Ultimately,the Arrow Ridge Business Park will include up to 160 acres of land.We
assisted the City during the application and implementation phases of each of the grant
programs utilized on the project. At the grant application stage,our services included
