Therefore, staff has negotiated <br /> an agreement with Black& Veatch for this project(copy is attached). Black& Veatch was asked <br /> to submit a proposal for this work based on previous studies of this nature for other water utilities <br />, and their familiarity with the SWTP due to design and subsequent work. The study should take a <br /> maximum of 45 days and cost a ma�cimum of $21,700. Funding would come from the Water <br /> Capital Fund. � <br /> It is recommended by staff that the City Council approve the award of a professional <br /> services contract to Black&Veatch Corparation for the study. A resolution is attached. <br /> attach: 2 <br />
