CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT y To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting: November 2, 2020 Subject: Roanoke Valley Flood Sensor Pilot Project - Receipt of Sensors Background: The Commonwealth of Virginia, through the Center for Innovative Technology (CIT) has formally partnered with the Federal Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in a flood sensor project. CIT has identified Roanoke as an ideal location for flood sensors in Virginia, based on the history of flooding throughout the valley, and the City's existing flood resiliency efforts. The proposed pilot project is also concurrent with efforts to remember the Flood of 1985 in Roanoke. The flood sensors would provide real -time, web -based information on stream flooding conditions that can be used by City staff to evacuate flood prone homes and pro - actively close roadways. The stream data would also facilitate the accurate construction of hydraulic models, useful for floodplain management purposes. The City of Roanoke will receive up to six flood sensors at no charge, as a participant in this flood sensor pilot project. Upon project completion, the flood sensors would be left in place. At that time, flood sensor ownership would revert to the City of Roanoke. If the City of Roanoke were to purchase the flood sensors individually, they would cost approximately $5,400 each. Although the City would not need to purchase these sensors for the pilot project, expenditures to the City would include ongoing maintenance and data costs, as detailed below: Data transmission: $6 monthly fee, per device, for wireless data transmission Data service: $500 annually for data service, plus $15 annual fee per sensor Maintenance: City personnel time, as needed, to clean gauges and solar panels of debris At this time, a single flood sensor is available, to be installed on Peters Creek near US460, but up to six total sensors may be available from CIT if the initial implementation is successful. Considerations: City Council approval is required to accept the donation of the flood sensors for the Roanoke Valley Flood Sensor Pilot Project. Data transmission and data service costs will be paid by the Stormwater Division. Maintenance will be performed by Stormwater Division employees. Recommended Action: Adopt the attached resolution authorizing the City Manager to accept the donation of the flood sensors from Center for Innovative Technology for the Roanoke Valley Flood Sensor Pilot Project. Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary forms providing for acceptance of the flood sensors, approved as to form by the City Attorney. - - - - -- --------------- - - -- Robert S.

A RESOLUTION authorizing the City Manager's issuance and execution of additional Amendments to the City's Contract with Lumsden and Associates, PC, ( "Lumsden ") for additional Architectural and Engineering Services, not to exceed $276,000.00 including Phase II (A) Amendment No.3, Phase II (B) Amendment No. 4 and Phase II (C) for Amendment No. 5 for Rivers Edge Park North Improvements; and authorizing the City Manager to take certain other actions in connection with such Amendments. BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Roanoke as follows: 1. The City Manager is authorized to issue and execute such additional Amendments as may be necessary to the City's Contract with Lumsden, in an amount not to exceed $276,000.00 for additional Architectural and Engineering Services including Phase II (A) Amendment No.3, Phase II (B) Amendment No. 4 and Phase II (C) for Amendment No. 5 for Rivers Edge Park North Improvements, all as more fully set forth in the City Council Agenda Report dated November 2, 2020. 2. The form of such Amendments shall be approved by the City Attorney. 3. The City Manager is authorized to take such actions and to execute such documents as may be necessary to provide for the implementation, administration, and enforcement of all such Amendments to the above - mentioned Contract with Lumsden, as well as the Contract itself. ATTEST: City Clerk. CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT To: Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Meeting: November 2, 2020 Subject: Rivers Edge Park North Improvements: Architectural and Engineering Contract for Phases I and II - Authorization of Additional Amendments to Contract with Lumsden and Associates, PC. Background: For many years, Rivers Edge Park North was an undeveloped but highly valued property consisting of gravel parking lots, an unplayable greenspace, and Maher baseball field. In 2015, the City initiated a phased approach to develop this property to become the region's premier active outdoor space. The first project in Phase I was the new competition level tennis facility. In 2017, the City dedicated more than $3M to finish Phase I which includes a primary Magnolia Esplanade entrance, ornamental fountain, picnic nodes, architectural and security lighting, two premier Bermuda athletic facilities, top -tier sports lighting, and access and parking for both the park and the Roanoke River Greenway trail, all of which were completed in June of this year. In 2018, the City awarded a contract to Lumsden and Associates, PC (Lumsden) to provide professional architectural and engineering services for Rivers Edge Park North Phases I and IL The initial contract with Lumsden for $140,000 for Phase I was increased through Amendment No. 1 for $26,600 and Amendment No. 2 for $7,800 for additional work for geotechnical borings, structural design for an elevated transformer, fully involved as -built utility plans for future park special event logistics, and various utility details. The contract for Phase I totals $174,400. Considerations: With the completion and success of Phase I, the City is requesting Council approval to amend the existing contract with Lumsden for Phase II work as allowed in the original RFP and resulting contract. Phase II work by Lumsden is anticipated to be $276,000, for a new contract not -to- exceed amount of $450,400. Council approval is required since the total aggregate increase in the contract exceeds the twenty five percent (25 %) of the original contract amount. Phase II will be completed in multiple parts. The City recently received limited capital funding from 2019 BAN funds that will be used for a new public comfort facility since the only restroom within the park is located at Maher field which is a location that is not conducive of serving either current or future park needs. Phase II also includes the Architect and Engineering (A &E) fees with Lumsden for the design work for the remainder of the Park improvements for a not to exceed amount of $200,000. With new and additional capital funds to complete Rivers Edge North Phase II becoming available to Parks and Recreation in the FY22 CIP, we anticipate that amendments identified above for a total of $276,000 will be sufficient to complete the remaining Architectural and Engineering services. Funding is available in the project account 08- 620 -9770, Roanoke Parks and Recreation Master Plan. Recommended Action: Authorize the City Manager to execute additional contract amendments as mentioned above, approved as to form by the City Attorney, to the City's contract with Lumsden and Associates in an amount not to exceed $276,000.00 for additional Architectural and Engineering Services, including Phase II (A) Amendment No. 3 for $16,000; Phase II (B) Amendment No. 4 for $60,000, and Phase II (C) for Amendment No. 5 for $200,000, as set forth above. Original Contract $140,000 Amendments 1 and 2 (Phase 1) $ 34,400 Future Amendments 3, 4 and 5 (Phase 11) $276,000 Total Contract Not To Exceed Amount $450,400 Authorize the City Manager to take such actions and to execute such documents, as may be necessary to provide for the implementation, administration, and enforcement of all such amendments to the above - mentioned contract with Lumsden and Associates, PC, as well as the contract itself.
