EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
City Council Regular Meeting: August 15, 2017
AGENDA ITEM: Amendment to Extend Term of
Professional Services Agreement for
Project / Assistant City Engineer Services
AGENDA SECTION:
Consent
PREPARED BY: Logan Martin, City Administrator
Brian Erickson, Director of Public
Works/City Engineer
AGENDA NO. 6.h.
ATTACHMENTS: Proposed Amendment to Professional
Services Agreement APPROVED BY: LJM
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion Authorizing the Execution of an Amendment to Extend
the Term of the Professional Services Agreement for Project / Assistant City Engineer
Services between the City of Rosemount and WSB & Associates, Inc.
BACKGROUND
In October 2015, the City entered into a Professional Services Agreement with WSB & Associates to
provide Project / Assistant City Engineer services to the City. This agreement was extended in December
2016 for a term of six months, and is now due for an additional extension. Staff anticipates this to be the
final extension of the agreement.
The City Council has directed staff to pursue the hiring of both a Public Works Director / City Engineer,
along with an Assistant City Engineer. Brian Erickson was recently hired to fill the Public Works Director
/ City Engineer position, and staff intends to allow Mr. Erickson time to acquaint himself with City
operations prior to pursuing the hiring of an Assistant City Engineer. The extension of the agreement
with WSB & Associates will allow current Assistant City Engineer Mitch Hatcher to remain on City staff
for up to 6 months, allowing time for this transition to occur.
The proposed amendment retains all the terms of the previous agreement, and WSB has continued to
show flexibility in the end date of the agreement, which is appreciated.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends City Council approval of an amendment to extend the term of the Professional Services
Agreement for Project / Assistant City Engineer Services between the City of Rosemount and WSB &
Associates, Inc.
