SUBJECT:

Professional Services Agreement with Davel Engineering & Environmental, Inc. for Engineering and Land Surveying for the Farmington Workforce Housing Subdivision ($27,000)

BACKGROUND

The City is in the process of acquiring the subject site. In order to allow for construction of single-family homes, on the subject site, it will need to go through the subdivision platting process. The platting process includes civil engineering and design for the necessary utilities and storm water infrastructure.

ANALYSIS

The City contacted several local consulting firms to obtain quotes for the necessary work. Davel Engineering & Environmental Inc has experience in similar previous projects and history with the subject site. Their prior work on the subject site resulted in a lower quote for completing the necessary work

FISCAL IMPACT

The cost to complete the required design and platting is $27,000.00 and will be funded out of the City’s Capital Improvement Plan - Housing Study Implementation funds.
