AUTHORIZATION OF THE CITY
MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A
CONTRACT WITH MGV

SURVEYS AT A COST NOT TO

REQUEST
The attached resolution seeks approval to allow the City Manager to enter into a contract with
MGV Associates,Inc.to provide surveys in conjunction with stormwater drainage projects.
BACKGROUND &ANALYSIS
Topographic surveys are an integral component of stormwater drainage projects,not only to plan
the horizontal layout of the right-of-way,but also the elevation data are used to develop the
grading plan.Often,it is necessary to slope streets,gutters,and swales toward drainage
structures at rates approaching a one-inch drop per 25 feet of distance.Inasmuch,the drainage
design must both useand modify the existing area elevations to ensure a smooth and efficient
drainage pattern,as well asa functional and aesthetic right-of-way.
MGV Associates,Inc.has provided topographic surveys to the City in the past,and this firm has
a current contract with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT).Itis therefore
proposed have MGV Associates provide the City with surveying services based upon their
contract with FDOT.
