RE: Environmental Consulting Service Agreement Amendment with AECOM for
State Street Parking Lot ($8,500)
BACKGROUND
As part of the construction of garages to serve the Washington Building, Community
Development staff requested a proposal for environmental consulting services in order to
facilitate the redevelopment of the State Street Parking Lot. The work contained within the
proposed scope of services was required for potential redevelopment of the State Street
Parking Lot, currently owned by the City. AECOM was chosen to perform the work related to
the environmental work required for the site for $70,000:
• Complete Voluntary Party Liability Exemption (VPLE) for Wisconsin Department of
Natural Resources (WisDNR), which the City would want in order to limit any liability
for the City or future owner for environmental contamination on the site.
• Additional Subsurface Investigation — completed in March, 2018.
• Work Plan for handling/using contaminated soil and groundwater management.
• On-site construction documentation.
Based on the additional subsurface investigation results from March, 2018, the Wis DNR is
requiring additional testing and documentation on the site prior to approving the VPLE.
ANALYSIS
WisDNR is requiring additional testing and analysis of the subsurface soil conditions on the
site due to exceedances for lead, barium and PAHs. Additional samples for metals and VOCs
are also required. WisDNR is also requiring resampling of the ground water on the site.
The proposed fees are based on an hourly contract, not to exceed $8,500.

This work must be completed in concert with redevelopment of the State Street Parking Lot.
The City cannot sell the lot to the developers until the VPLE is obtained, so the garages
currently remain on leased land. In order to sell the land, the WisDNR must be satisfied with
the environmental conditions on the site, and the additional investigation and sampling is
required for WisDNR's determination.
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost of these professional services will be paid by the developers as required in the
Development Agreement. The TIF District pay -go agreement will add this cost to the
developer's investment and be will included as a TIF -eligible expense for the developer's
future pay -go payment.
