*Terracon Consultants proposal did not reflect the Cities desire to complete the soil borings and road corings under traffic. The crews will be on -site 2-3 weeks to complete the work, and Staff does not feel it would be practical to have road closures of Variolite Street for this extended period of time, and that the work may be safely completed with lane shifts and/or flagging operations. Staff reached out to Terracon to confirm the intent of their traffic control unit price but did not receive a response. City Staff recommends approving the Northern Technologies proposal for a total cost of $29,750. Their proposal includes a $25 per lineal foot line item for soil boring additional depth beyond the standard 10-feet. This may be required to explore noted groundwater concerns and poor soils along the road alignment. Notification: Notifications were not required for this case. Observations/Alternatives: Alternatives: Alternative # 1 — Adopt Resolution # 19-219 approving proposals from Hakanson Anderson for the topographic survey, and from Northern Technologies Inc. for a Geotechnical Report, for Improvement Project #20-01, Variolite Street Reconstruction. Alternative #2 — Deny adoption of Resolution #19-219 at this time. Funding Source: All costs associated with the work requested in the attached Requests for Proposals shall be paid from Municipal State Aid (MSA) Funds, which has a current balance in excess of $2,500,000. Recommendation: Staff recommends Alternative # 1. Action: Adopt Resolution # 19-219 approving proposals from Hakanson Anderson for the topographic survey, and from Northern Technologies Inc. for a Geotechnical Report, for Improvement Project #20-01, Variolite Street Reconstruction.
