MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council
FROM: David C. Patek Tbc4
DATE: January 23, 2014
RE: Approval of Amendment to Engineering Services Agreement for Design of the Southwest
Industrial Park Expansion/
Foth Infrastructure& Environment, LLC (Foth) ($44,501)
BACKGROUND
In 2009, Engineering Division staff requested a proposal from Foth to perform the final design engineering
and prepare construction plans/specifications for Phases 3 and 4 of the Southwest Industrial Park. The
expansion area is north of the Wisconsin Southern Railroad line, south of the YMCA, and east of Clairville
Road. The proposed work included plans for site grading, storm water management, sanitary sewer,
water main, and street construction.
ANALYSIS
The original proposal was requested from Foth due to their involvement and familiarity with the project.
Foth performed the preliminary engineering work to lay out the streets/utilities and performed
environmental reviews for wetlands/other environmentally sensitive areas. Another amendment is
required for this project because it has been delayed due to wetland delineations and coordination with
Wisconsin Southern Railroad for the crossing of Global Parkway. Additional compensation is also due
Foth for cost of living price increases.
FISCAL IMPACT
The original agreement for this design was for $120,500. A previous amendment of $50,100 was
approved in May of 2012. This amendment is recommended in the amount of $44,501, which would
bring the total agreement amount to $215,101. Funding for this project is included in the 2013 Capital
Improvement Program in the Tax Increment Financing District Improvements section.
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 this amendment and in accordance with Section 12-16 of the Code, I am hereby
recommending that the Common Council approve this amendment.
