(a 2) C j) • ypUTN B Community & Economic Developments' JKS 1200 County -City Building, 227 West Jefferson, South Bend, Indiana 46601 -1830 Phone 574/235 -9371 Fax 574/235 -9021 To: Redevelopment Commission From: Bill Schalliol, AIDED Subject: Professional Services - Survey Services for the Erskine Golf Course Drainage Study Date: March 22, 2012 Attached to this memorandum is a professional services proposal from Wightman Petrie to provide survey services for the Erskine Golf Course Drainage Study. Over the past several years, the City has instituted or planned a variety of infrastructure upgrades around the Erskine Golf Course area. Improvements project like the Erskine Plaza Pond project, proposed improvements to the intersection of Ireland - High, and the proposed Fellows- Chippewa connector project all create opportunities to improve the drainage and traffic circulation infrastructure improvements around the course. As part of both the proposed Fellows- Chippewa project and the proposed Ireland - High intersection project, there are opportunities to improve surface and overflow drainage that flows into the golf course area and reduce course flooding and damage as well as reduce the drainage feature costs associated with both of the proposed infrastructure projects. The opportunity to develop connected pond systems on the course can reduce the costs associated with pipe work and storm line constraints on the south side storm water network. The attached proposal contemplates survey services in two formats: Option 1. Survey services via aerial photography - $18,769.00 Option 2. Survey services via land based survey - $21,016.00 Staff would request approval of a budget cap limit of $22,000 for survey services with an overage allowance for #2 based on estimated costs for potential overage costs based on the amount of area to be surveyed. The preferred method for overland topographic survey would be the aerial survey ( #1), but because of the early spring and the budding of trees, it might not be practical to do Option #1 at this late point in the early Spring season. Staff requests approval of the proposal in a budget cap limit of $22,000.00. What We Do Today Makes A Difference!
