Award 2026B Stormwater Management Plan review contract to raSmith in an amount not to exceed $40,000.

The Department of Public Works requests awarding a contract to raSmith for stormwater management plan reviews in 2026. The contract amount will not exceed $40,000. This approach, similar to previous years, involves raSmith working with City staff, developers, and regulatory agencies to review stormwater and erosion control plans. The contract is billed hourly as projects arise, with potential amendments if more projects than anticipated are submitted. raSmith has a history of satisfactory performance, including staff training and timely plan reviews. The city may negotiate future contracts with raSmith and/or Brown and Caldwell for 2026-2028 without a new RFP process, subject to approval.
