SECOND MOTION: I move for approval of AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF AN AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN THE CITY OF LEE'S SUMMIT, MISSOURI, AND OLSSON ASSOCIATES INC., IN THE AMOUNT OF $583,155.00 FOR PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR 3RD STREET IMPROVEMENTS FROM PRYOR RD TO MURRAY RD (RFQ NO. 422-32272)
Background:
The project will improve safety and capacity of this major arterial corridor. The improvements are recommended in the Thoroughfare Master Plan to address existing and long term operational demand. The improvements also support various City policies, standards and ordinances such as Livable Streets Policy, American with Disabilities Act and Street Light Policy. All existing pavement will be removed, and the current three lane road will be replaced with a new four lane road. Additionally, sidewalks will be built on both sides of the street, street lights will light the corridor and accommodations for left turn lanes and access management will be constructed where appropriate. Based on the design engineer's traffic analysis of the 3rd and Murray intersection, either a traffic signal or a roundabout will be constructed.
If project funding is available, then additional sidewalk and lighting improvements to SW 3rd St, from SW Murray Rd to SW McClendon Dr, will be considered. The optional services in this proposed contract include the design for these additional improvements.
These improvements were recommended by City Council with remaining funds from the 2007 CIP Sales Tax. The project was included in the adopted CIP, 2017-2022.
Public Works issued RFQ 422-32272. The RFQ was advertised in the City website and www.PublicPurchase.com. Engineering firms were notified by Public Purchase for access to the documents and 14 firms were notified by email. Seven firms submitted statements of qualifications prior to the November 21, 2016 closing date. All submittals were evaluated by a City Staff evaluation team composed of five personnel with representatives from Public Works.
