Statement of Purpose
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE: This resolution authorizes a five-year master services agreement with LHB, Inc., for professional survey and field data collection services needed to support the construction, operation and maintenance of city systems on a non-exclusive, as-needed basis.
This agreement will be one of four blanket purchase agreements for survey and field data collection services, with projects ordered and billed on an hourly basis pursuant to a city-issued, written statement of work or similar document. By having agreements with multiple firms in place, the engineering division has the flexibility to request these services, which include but are not limited to verification of property boundaries and establishment of platted right-of-ways, electronic data collection of existing utilities, buildings, sidewalks and roadway locations in relation to the platted right-of-way, as well as construction layout and final survey services based on a particular company’s expertise and availability. The agreements do not guarantee that a minimum amount of services will be ordered from a particular vendor, and the agreements may be terminated at any time.
