ca
Q: Does the consultant need to design central control systems?
A: Not used on our neighborhood parks so do not see this as something we need at this
time.

and will potentially be assisting in water feature renovation design if they have that
expertise as well.

A: $500,000

Q: How does this process work and how does it work when other departments want to
use this contract besides Parks Planning or Parks?
A: Other departments typically call Purchasing to ask if we have a consultant on board
that can handle their need. Then that department representative would contact the
consultant directly to explain their need. The consultant would then prepare a
proposal/work order based on the set hourly rates given in this RFP. The department
representative would then have the consultant working directly with them upon
receipt of a work order signed by both parties. Basically works the same way for the
different managers in Parks and Parks Planning.
Q: Will the pre-proposal attendance sheet be posted?
A: Yes
Q: Correction to the typo on page 4, Instructions to the Consultants, in the 1st bullet
referring to resumes required, regarding “roadway” design and/or surveying?
A: The word “roadway” should be replaced with “irrigation”. The words “and/or
surveying” should be removed.
