COUNCIL COMMUNICATION TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: WILLIAM A. SIMMONS CITY ADMINISTRATOR DATE: October 19, 1999 SUBJECT: North Water Treatment Plant Landscape Master Plan ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: Public Works Department SUMMARY: Included in the 1999 Water Fund Budget are funds for developing a Landscape Master Plan for the North Water Treatment Plant (NWTP). Over the years as various improvements and expansions have taken place at the NWTP landscaping was put on hold. The Public Works Department is comfortable that the limited nature of future improvements allows us to invest in landscaping that will not be disturbed by further modifications to the plant. The Landscape Master Plan will allow us to address comments from adjacent residents regarding view of obstruction from existing trees. DHM Design has developed the attached scope of work' for the Landscape Master Plan. DHM Design is the firm being retained by the Parks Rec Department for development of the Cherry Street landscape plans. The Public Works Department is requesting authorization to amend their existing contract to include this work as a separate task. Funds for the work are contained in the 1999 Water Fund, Capital Improvement Program. RECOMMENDATION: Approval of the Scope of Work for Landscape Master Plan at the NWTP with DHM Design in the amount not to exceed $6,227.
