MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Co n Council
FROM: James Rabe, Director of Public Works
DATE: November 19, 2015
RE: Engineering Services Agreement for 2016 Site Review Services / Brown and Caldwell
BACKGROUND
The Department of Public Works and the Department of Community Development requested a proposal
from Brown and Caldwell to provide site review services for the 2016 calendar year. These services will
include, but are not limited to, reviewing private development plans for compliance with the City of
Oshkosh Municipal Code and the State of Wisconsin Administrative Code.
ANALYSIS
Brown and Caldwell was chosen due to their familiarity with the City of Oshkosh Municipal Code, the
State of Wisconsin Administrative Code, and their experience doing this type of work for the City of
Oshkosh. The Brown and Caldwell staff have performed these services on an "as needed" basis for the
City of Oshkosh previously, and the same staff will continue to provide these services on an "as needed"
basis.
FISCAL IMPACT
The fees that will be charged by Brown and Caldwell for each site plan review will be charged to the
private developer for each site, resulting in no fiscal impact to the City.
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 that the Common Council approve this agreement.
Approved,
