body
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
ORIGINATOR: Julie High
EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION: Ken Klein 5/30/24
PURPOSE: Approval of the Professional Services Agreement CCF01-24 with Perteet, Inc. for Design Services, I-5/164th St SW Direct Access Improvements
BACKGROUND:
- The Department of Public Works (PW) intends to complete access improvements near the I-5/164th St SW interchange by providing a new east/west connection over I-5 along with improved connections to the road system for transit, HOV, and multimodal travel, increasing access to the future Sound Transit light rail station and the Ash Way Park & Ride.
- The Washington State Legislature appropriated a Move Ahead WA Grant to Snohomish County in the amount of $2M for the 2023-2025 biennium to fund these improvements.
- The Department of Public Works does not currently have the capacity to provide design services for this project, therefore, Public Works has determined a need for assistance from a consultant.
- Through a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) PW has solicited the services of a consultant to assist the County with these projects. Perteet Inc. was one of two consulting firms responding to RFP-23-013SB and was selected through established Federal, State and County policies and practices.
- A Professional Services Agreement between Snohomish County and Perteet, Inc. was negotiated. The total budget for this ECAF is $1,718,649.18, which includes the agreement amount of $1,618,649.18 and an additional contingency amount of $100,000.00, for allowable unforeseen costs. The approving motion for the agreement authorizes the Public Works Director or Deputy Director to approve and execute amendments to the agreement within this total budgeted amount.
