RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to recommend the City Council approve entering into a
professional services agreement with WSB to provide engineering services for the
Rosemount Armory/Community Center Parking Lot Replacement Project.
ISSUE
At the City Council meeting on Tuesday, January 17, 2016, a joint powers agreement was approved
between the Minnesota Army National Guard and the City of Rosemount to replace the shared parking
lot. The total project cost including professional services is estimated at $696,350.00. The City’s portion of
the project would cost an estimated $416,520.00 and the National Guard’s portion would cost an
estimated $279,830.00. We are at a point now where we need to move forward on the project by hiring an
engineering firm to create the final plans/specs, perform pavement and geotechnical analysis and provide
construction management.
Staff requested that WSB and Associates provide a proposal for the necessary services. WSB has assisted
City staff with the project for the last couple of years since the National Guard first requested we move
forward on the parking lot improvements. They have performed the initial inspections, continued to
monitor the conditions of the lot and created the estimates for the project. The consulting services that we
typically need for a project like this include:
Step 1 – Final Design ($32,026)
The final design work will include a survey, plans and specifications, quantity estimates, prep of
bidding documents, project meetings and project coordination.
Step 2 – Pavement and Geotechnical Analysis ($3,465)
WSB will conduct soil borings and prepare a geotechnical report for the proposed project area to
confirm the assumptions made about the pavement and subgrade conditions. Approximately ten
(10) shallow borings will be conducted throughout the site.
Step 3 – Construction Management ($25,748)
The consultant would coordinate the construction process, construction observations/inspections,
construction staking and contract administration.
The total cost of the professional services, which is included in the packet, has been submitted as an
hourly-not-to-exceed fee of $61,239, which would be shared by the City of Rosemount and Minnesota
Army National Guard.
