Explanation

1. BACKGROUND
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to enter into contract with Resource International, Inc., in the amount of up to $500,000.00 for the UIRF - General Engineering (2015) contract.

The intent of this contract is to provide the Department of Public Service with continuing, contractual access to additional resources that are necessary to perform professional engineering and survey services as well as provide technical expertise for the department to implement projects for the Department of Development through the city’s Urban Infrastructure Recovery Fund (UIRF) program. Approved projects are by a request from a community organization to install or evaluate the feasibility of a selected improvement. Improvement types are generally as follows: curb ramps, curb replacements, curb extensions, intersection or roadway improvements, bike facilities, sidewalk, traffic calming, and landscaping features.

The Department of Public Service, Office of Support Services, solicited Requests for Proposals for the UIRF - General Engineering (2015) contract. The department formally advertised the project on the Vendor Services web site from September 18, 2014, to October 14, 2014. The city received sixteen (16) responses. All proposals were responsive and fully evaluated by the Evaluation Committee on October 22, 2014.
