Board approves professional-services recommendation for Lincoln Avenue lift station design
Summary
The board voted to approve staff’s recommendation to hire the firm transcribed as 'Furbecker Associates Incorporated' for $88,700 to provide design services for the Lincoln Avenue wastewater lift station; funding will come from sewer use fees and the project is within the city's CIP budget.
The Marshfield Board of Public Works voted Feb. 3 to approve a staff recommendation to award professional services for design of the Lincoln Avenue wastewater lift station.
Speaker 4 told the board three proposals were received: Roth Professional Solutions ($77,300), Strand Associates Inc. ($150,000), and a third proposal whose firm name appears with inconsistent spellings in the transcript (listed variously as Verbecker, Birkbeck and Furbecker). A staff review team that included the acting public works director, acting city engineer and assistant wastewater superintendent evaluated proposals on project understanding, technical approach, schedule, relevant experience and overall value.
Staff recommended the proposal transcribed as 'Furbecker Associates Incorporated' in the amount of $88,700 as the best overall value and stated that the proposal is within the $100,000 budgeted for the project in the city’s capital improvement plan. Speaker 4 said funding will be provided through sewer use fees and will not affect the city’s tax levy.
A motion to approve the staff recommendation was made, seconded and approved by voice vote. The board recorded the motion as carried; the transcript does not provide individual member vote tallies. Staff will execute the professional services agreement with the recommended firm and proceed with design.
