Agreement
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute a professional services agreement with CSG Consultants, Inc., of Foster City to provide design and construction support services for SB-1 Streets Project, Project 21-30, in a not-to-exceed amount of $130,000.
BACKGROUND
The City of Mountain View’s street network is 140.3 centerline miles in length and covers approximately 30.9 million square feet of pavement. This network is essential and is among the most valuable assets maintained by the City. To preserve and maintain the City’s roadway network, the City utilizes several funding sources, including State gas tax funding received from the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA), created by Senate Bill 1 (SB-1).
As part of the City’s pavement management program, staff evaluates existing roadway pavement conditions and remaining pavement life to identify candidate street segments and the cost-effective treatment options such as slurry seal, pavement overlay , or pavement reconstruction. The stre ets planned for rehabilitation with a slurry seal treatment as part of SB -1 Streets Project, Project 21 -30, include the following and are shown in Figure 1—Project Location Map:
• Location 1: Velarde Street between Bush Street and Anza Street.
• Location 2: Pamela Drive between Phyllis Avenue and Bay Street.
• Location 3: Bay Street between Pamela Drive and El Camino Real.
• Location 4: Doverton Square (intersecting Levin Avenue).

ANALYSIS
On October 19, 2021, the City issued a Request for Proposal s (RFP) for design services and received proposals from three firms. A selection committee comprised of Public Works staff evaluated the proposals and reviewed the qualifications and understanding of the project. The committee selected CSG Consultants, Inc. (CSG) as the most qualified firm based on their clarity regarding the project approach, experience in completing

similar projects, and understanding of project goals. CSG has provided similar design services for many local agencies.
The main elements of the scope of services include:
• Conduct site survey, data collection, and design analysis;
• Prepare construction bid documents; and
• Provide bidding and construction support.
The recommended fee of $1 30,000 for services and contingency is consistent for such services, and staff considers the fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of work required. If the recommended action is approved by Council, CSG w ill begin design in April 2022. The project is estimated to complete design in fall 2022 and start construction in early 2023.
FISCAL IMPACT
SB-1 Streets Project, Project 21-30, is funded with $1,300,000 from the SB-1 Gas Tax Fund.
The fee for the recommended agreement is $109,585 for basic services and reimbursable expenses, and a contingency of $20,415 for additional services, for a total not-to-exceed amount of $130,000. The project has sufficient funds for the recommended action.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Do not approve the recommended professional services agreement and reissue the RFP.
2. Provide other direction.
