STOCKTON CITY COUNCIL
RESOLUTION APPROVING FINDINGS AND AWARDING A $158,100 CONTRACT TO HALEY & ALDRICH, INC. FOR ENGINEERING DESIGN SERVICES AT THE DELTA WATER INTAKE PUMP STATION The Municipal Utilities Department (MUD) operates the Delta Water Supply Intake Pump Station (IPS) located west of the City of Stockton on the south bank of Empire Tract; and The IPS was built on top of an existing levee that was made taller and wider using specially placed and compacted soil and areas that are not supported by deep foundation piles have experienced noticeable settlement at the ground surface; and A topographic survey, as part of the levee’s routine annual settlement monitoring, identified soil erosions underlying pavement materials around the IPS; and On August 14, 2025, the City advertised an RFP and posted Stockton Bid Flash webpage; and On September 18, 2025, the City Clerk received a proposal from Haley & Aldrich, Inc., which was determined to meet the required criteria; now, therefore, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STOCKTON, AS FOLLOWS:
The City Council approves the following findings pursuant to Stockton Municipal Code Section 3.68.070 to support and justify an exception to the competitive bidding process:
The City lacks technical expertise in hydrogeology and engineering to develop the needed design improvements to help remediate settlement impacts at the IPS.
The scope of services requires an engineering firm with expertise in designing erosion control measures and the capability to conduct a comprehensive geotechnical investigation.
Use of the RFP process is appropriate for this contract because it relies on the evaluation of professional qualifications and performance as the basis for selection of a vendor. Use of these criteria helps ensure selection of a vendor that will provide the highest quality professional service which is in the public interest.
The Haley & Aldrich, Inc. contract proposal qualifies the necessary experience, is regular in all aspects and meets the required criteria.
The City Council awards a contract to Haley & Aldrich, Inc. to design erosion control measures at the Delta Water Intake Pump Station at a total not-to-exceed amount of $158,100, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1 and incorporated by this reference.
The City Manager or designee is hereby authorized to take appropriate and necessary actions to carry out the purpose and intent of this Resolution.
