RE: Approve Professional Services Agreement with Strand Associates, Inc. (Strand)
for Property Survey, Property Acquisition, Environmental Assistance, and Grant
Applications Services for Sawyer Creek Rural II Detention Basin ($85,000)
BACKGROUND
A proposal was requested from Strand for assistance with land acquisition for the Sawyer Creek
Rural II Detention Basin. The services to be provided will include property survey, property
acquisition assistance, environmental assistance, and storm water grant application services.
ANALYSIS
The Department of Public Works requested a proposal from Strand due to their staff familiarity
with the City of Oshkosh, the Sawyer Creek Watershed, and previous work within this
watershed.
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost of the proposal is $85,000. The cost for these services was included in the Storm Water
section of the 2021 Capital Improvements Program (Account #03210410-6804-04115/Contract
Control-Storm Sewer-21-15 Sawyer Creek Watershed Detent).
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
Municipal Code, I am hereby recommending that the Common Council approve this professional
services agreement.
Approved,
Mark A. Rohloff
City Manager
