Donald W. Cather (For Commission Meeting of
Director of Public Works ENCLOSURES:March 14, 1985)
The Competitive Selection Committee
recommends adoption of a resolution
approving the selection of qualified
firms by rank order to provide A
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT TO
DEVELOP A COMPREHENSIVE STORM DRAINAGE
MASTER PLAN for the City; Authorizing
the City Manager to negotiate a
professional services contract with the
ranked firms; and directing the City
Manager to present a negotiated contract
to the City Commission for approval.
Numerous drainage problems exist throughout the City which cause
frequent flooding on streets in many areas. The citizens of Miami
have approved a $30,000,000 storm sewer bond issue in order to
-
eliminate many of these problems. The Department of Public Works
has undertaken an immediate action storm sewer program to relieve
problems in 27 major drainage basins which experience the worst
drainage problems. These remedial action plans must be integrated
into a comprehensive City-wide stormwater management program that
-
will provide flood protection to the entire City.
Due to the desired timeliness and expertise needed to develop a
,-
comprehensive plan, it was recommended by this Department that the
City retain the services of a professional consulting firm for
-'
plan development and document preparation. Therefore, on
October 189 1984, the City advertised for receipt of Letters of
Interest from professional consulting firms for the development of
a comprehensive storm drainage master plan for the City of Miami.

The attached resolution approves the selection by the Competitive
Selection Committee of qualified firms, by rank order; authorizes
the City Manager to negotiate a professional services contract
with the ranked firms; and directs the City Manager to present a
negotiated contract to the City Commission for approval. It should
be noted, however, that one of the members of the Competitive
Selection Committee could not follow the criteria established for
consultant evaluation in ranking the firms. This member's score
sheet was subsequently eliminated from the final count by the
Committee Chairman.
The estimated cost of this service contract is $250,000 with
$50,000 Contingency for a total of $300,000. Funds for the project
are available in the Storm Sewer General Obligation Bond Fund
Account.
