The first step in the process of taking the master plan from concept to reality is to conduct a feasibility study. Public Works contacted the continuing engineering services firm, Pegasus Engineering, to handle this task as several key people that were involved with the evolution of the City's Stormwater program are part of the Pegasus design team. This feasibility study will establish the parameters for the design, then construction of the regional stormwater facility for development. Public Works worked with Pegasus to develop a meaningful scope for the study by breaking the work into tasks for; existing conditions analysis, proposed conditions analysis for Study Area 1 (City Hall complex east of Bluford Ave.), proposed conditions analysis for Study Area 2 (Taylor St. to Bluford Ave.) and the final summary report. These tasks will provide deliverable reports that can then be used to solicit engineering services for the final design and construction. The City is currently performing an existing conditions survey of the City Hall Complex, which can also be used by Pegasus for the Existing Conditions Analysis of Task 1 leading to additional time and cost savings. The$150,098.04 for the study is available in the Stormwater Capital Improvements. 2 ! Page Regular City Commission February 7,2017 8.
