RAILROAD ALLEY WATERMAIN – Construction Staking (Mr. Kammler, Director of Engineering)
The Railroad Alley Watermain projects will require construction survey staking for line and grades as designed. While the Engineering Department will be handling construction inspection and testing in- house, we do not currently have the ability to perform these surveying services.
IMEG performed the design for the construction plans on this projects and is therefore the most cost- effective firm to perform construction staking services required for the proposed improvements. As such, a professional services contract proposal has been obtained from IMEG to assist the city with this work. The proposal shows a detailed scope of services and is attached for review and consideration.
