RE: |
Project PW1406 Solid Waste Facility on Kresge Road Engineering Services |
Please include the following on the City Commission agenda for consideration at the August 19, 2014 meeting:
Authorize City Manager to execute the Engineering Services Agreement with Bartlett & West for the Solid Waste Facility on Kresge Road in the amount of $157,038.
Project Background
The City of Lawrence acquired the property at 2201 Kresge Road for the purpose of relocating our solid waste operations. Development will be phased, with the Household Hazardous Waste Facility being the first priority.
Project Description/History
The property at 2201 Kresge Road is a 10.7 acre property in the City limits. The property features a 9,200 square foot building, housing both drive-thru truck bays and approximately 2,800 square feet of office space. The site was developed in 1989 with the office expansion in 2008. The site is served by all utilities and has an IG zoning classification. Located in the Santa Fe Industrial Park, it provides a good location for the solid waste operations, including the Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Facility. The property is bordered by I-70 on the south and the K-Mart Distribution Facility on the west. There are no floodplain zones on the property. The area is designed for truck traffic but also close enough to residential developments to feel “in the City” for the HHW program. Trash and recycling trucks would have fairly easy access to the south, west, and north (via the turnpike).
During the site investigation, Bartlett & West was engaged by the City to do a general assessment of the buildings and possible property layout to determine if the site could adequately meet current and reasonable future needs for the Solid Waste Division. The preliminary layout of the property is attached for reference. The City must re-plat and site plan the area, and well as plan for infrastructure improvements.
RFP’s were received from six consulting firms. The City Commission authorized staff to negotiate the scope of services and contract for professional services with Bartlett & West on July 1, 2014.
