Consider action on a Resolution Approving an Agreement with Moore Iacofano Goltsman, Inc. (MIG) for Professional Engineering Services for the Development of Construction Documents for the Addison Beltway Drive Trail Project and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the Agreement  in an Amount Not to Exceed $223,000.

The City-Wide Trail Master Plan (CWTMP) was adopted by Council on May 25, 2021. Pages 40-41 of the plan identify Phase 1 projects that are recommended to be completed within 0-5 years of the date of adoption. The development of a trail system along Beltway Drive between Marsh Lane and Belt Line Road is included in the CWTMP's Phase 1 recommendations. Specific recommendations for the Beltway Drive Trail project, based on community input, include:

• Buffered Bike Lanes between Marsh Lane and Midway Road.
• Bicycle Boulevard between Midway Road and Belt Line Road.
• Wide Sidewalk with Buffer from the Redding Trail heading east to Belt Line Road.

On December 14, 2021, Council approved a professional services agreement with Moore Iacofano Goltsman, Inc. (MIG) for professional engineering services for conceptual design of the Beltway Drive Trail project for an amount not to exceed $65,998. The development of Trail Signage and Wayfinding Standards and the development of a Public Input Survey were included in the Beltway Drive Trail scope of services. The Public Input Survey created by MIG was conducted by staff to gather information to help guide the development of the conceptual design. On August 23, 2022, a staff presentation to Council included results of public input and staff's recommendations for moving forward with the conceptual design.

Council approved $223,000 in the Fiscal Year 2023 Budget for the development of construction documents for Addison Beltway Drive Trail and Greenspace as a result of the approved conceptual  plan. Town staff selected Moore Iacofano Goltsman (MIG), the firm that developed the Beltway Drive Trail and Greenspace conceptual plan, as the most qualified team to complete the construction documents for the project. MIG is listed in the Town's pre-qualified consultant pool which was established through the selection process for Bid Number 17-180 Request for Qualifications for various Town projects. MIG's proposal includes preparation of topographic surveying, estimate of probable construction costs, development of construction documentation, bidding support and construction oversight. 

Administration recommends approval.
