MEMORANDUM
DATE: February 15, 2012
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council
FROM: Mark A. Rohloff, City Manager -I�-
RE: Engineering Services Agreement for Feasibility Study for Proposed Parking Lot
Improvements at Riverside Parking Lot I AECOM
The Department of Transportation requested a proposal from AECOM to develop several candidate
parking lot layouts for the City's Riverside lot, which is located at the east side of the Oshkosh Convention
Center. The pavement condition of the lot is such that it warrants reconstruction, according to a study by
Jewell Associates Engineers, a consultant retained by the City in 2010 to examine the pavement
condition of the City's parking lots. We want to address the pavement's current condition while
considering how the lot`s layout could more effectively serve the Convention Center and Riverwalk in the
future. The scope of work includes preparing base maps, characterizing and testing the soils, developing
candidate parking lot layouts, and providing opinions of probable cost associated with different
alternatives. This work will enable us to have a more precise understanding of the costs involved in future
reconstruction. AECOM was selected because of their familiarity with the area in the work they did for the
City on the Riverwalk.
The cost of these services is estimated not to exceed $25,650. This is included in the Parking Lots
Improvement line item, funded at $350,000 in the approved 2012 Capital improvement Program.
Section 12- 10(D)(5) of the Municipal Code provides that professional services of a specialized nature,
including engineering services, may be approved by the City Manager without the use of formal, sealed
quotes. In accordance with 12 -10(E) of the Code, I am hereby submitting this report regarding this
contract award.
Please contact me if you have any questions concerning this contract award.
