Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request for approval of an agreement with Halff Associates, Inc., in the amount of $500,000, to provide engineering and related services as may be needed for utility engineering and related services in support of Flood Control District projects (Project ID Z100-00-00-G809, Agreement No. 2024-15, Countywide, MWBE Contracted Goal: 19.60%).
end
Background and Discussion:
This Agreement will provide engineering and related services for utility coordination staff support. Effectively identifying and relocating any and all potential utility conflicts is an important task for the successful execution of all projects handled by the Flood Control District. The Flood Control District requests this on-call utility coordination agreement to locate, coordinate and adjust utilities, as well as any related services for projects on an as-needed basis countywide within the Flood Control District’s jurisdiction.
Expected Impact:
This agreement will cover all necessary utility coordination services. Utility adjustments and related support are crucial for effectively managing project development, from feasibility studies to construction. Many District projects require utility coordination efforts. This agreement will ensure that projects needing utility adjustments are supported and resolved efficiently.
Alternative Options:
The alternative to approving this item would be to not approve this agreement, which would result in a lack of utility coordination support for current and future District projects.
