City Council authorize the City Manager or designee to enter into a professional services
contract between the City and Impact Sciences to prepare an EIR for the Sand Canyon
Gateway/Rodgers Enterprises development, for a total contract amount not to exceed
$198,392 from account #501-23018, subject to City Attorney approval.
BACKGROUND
City staff has selected Impact Sciences to prepare an EIR for the Sand Canyon
Gateway/Rodgers Enterprises project, which involves two project sites adjacent to one
another. Sand Canyon Gateway proposes 24 single family homes and a 110,000 square
foot commercial shopping center on 55 acres of property currently split zoned RS
(Residential Suburban), CCPD (Community Commercial Planned Development), and
RVL (Residential Very Low). Approximately 1/4 of the Sand Canyon Gateway site houses
a mobile home park that will remain. Rodgers Enterprises proposes 63 single family
homes on 34 acres of property currently spilt zoned RS (Residential Suburban) and RVL
(Residential Very Low). Impact Sciences was the highest rated firm of the five firms
interviewed by City staff for the preparation of the EIR.
The cost for preparing the document is $188,392. An additional $10,000 contingency
fund has been added to the professional services agreement to cover the cost of any
unanticipated studies, therefore the total cost of administering the contract is not to
exceed $198,392. The cost of preparing the EIR will be borne solely by the applicant.
The applicant will submit a check to the City and City staff will administer the contract
with the consultant.
f
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Decline the ability to proceed as requested, therefore requiring the selection of an
alternative consulting firm for preparation of the EIR.
FISCAL IMPACT
The applicant has deposited funds into account #501-23018. Authorization to proceed
with the EIR does not create a fiscal impact to the City's budget.
