Council approves expanded GIS mapping agreement to update utility records
Summary
Council approved an amendment to the owner-consultant agreement with Keller Associates to expand GIS mapping of water/sewer lines and other utilities, increasing the budget cap to cover unmapped subdivisions and allowing phased work.
Council heard from Keller Associates about a proposed time-and-materials amendment to update the city's GIS utility mapping. "So, this is a time and materials agreement," the consultant said, describing a phased approach to map waterlines, sewer lines, valves and other assets where record drawings or as-built data are missing. Staff and council discussed that the work need not be completed in one year and that some surveying would not be included in the initial amendment due to cost.
Council approved the amendment, noting the value of up-to-date GIS for maintenance, continuity and the coming departure of a long-tenured public-works employee. Staff said the amendment increases the not-to-exceed amount (the transcript referenced a total of $7,500 in budget lines as part of a longer-term project) and that work can be prioritized to address the most critical unmapped developments first.
