Service Agreement Brown & Caldwell 2017 Site Plan Reviewcyto` Oshkosh MEMORANDUM TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the C on Council FROM: James Rabe, Director of Public Works DATE: December 8, 2016 RE: Engineering Services Agreement with Brown and Caldwell / 2017 Site Plan Review Services ($50,000) BACKGROUND The Department of Public Works requested a proposal from Brown and Caldwell to provide site review services for the 2017 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 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. The remainder of the fees will be charged to the Storm Water Utility Operating Budget under contractual services. There is funding available in the Storm Water Utility Operating Budget for that portion of the charges. 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, Mark A.
