INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memo is to provide the City Council with information to award
Applied Ecological Services (AES) the Phase 1) Turf Conversion and Soil Quality
Restoration (SQR) Project to begin construction work implementing the Eagle Point
Park Environmental Restoration Management Plan (CIP #720-2301). Supporting
documentation and a resolution are enclosed.
BACKGROUND
The Eagle Point Park Environmental Restoration Management Plan, approved by the
City Council in January 2017, outlines the unique nature and value of this park and the
importance of making the site more resilient. The report focuses on the restoration of
native plants to improve the health of the ecosystem and enhance ecological functions
such as water purification, groundwater recharge and pollinator support. Another major
area of focus is the reduction of stormwater runoff and the use of stormwater best
practices to reduce soil erosion and improve water quality.
The City Council approved a $185,244 Contract with Emmons and Olivier Resources,
Inc. (EOR) in October 2018 for Project Design, Construction Management, and Grant
Administration Services. EOR is assisting the City with implementing best practices
outlined in the Environmental Restoration Management Plan as well as grant
administration and Section 106 historic preservation review.
DISCUSSION
The City team for this project includes staff from Leisure Services, Engineering, and
Planning Services Departments. City Staff and the EOR team are receiving guidance
from the lowa Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) and the lowa Department of
Agriculture and Land Stewardship (IDALS) in developing plans and specifications for
implementing best practices.
Eagle Point Park is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The park has been
determined to possess historic, architectural, cultural, and archeological resources. The
commentary from the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) has required additional
information from our consultants re: design aspects of a bio-retention basin along the
park road and the question of removal of potential legacy trees in that specific basin
area.
This has generated expenses of$16,466.08 for additional design work by EOR and the
need for archeological monitoring by Bear Creek Archeology. The turf conversion and
SQR work has already been cleared by SHPO and NPS.
Consequently, City staff have been working with EOR consultants and IDNR and IDALS
staff to move the project forward through two bidding packages: Phase 1) Turt
Conversion and SQR now, and Phase 2) Bioretention Basin Construction, Tree
Removal, and Native Vegetation Establishment later.
Note: The bid documents provided to the City Council previously and posted for this
project included an estimated project cost of$300,247.50. This was an earlier estimate
that was subsequently updated and increased to accommodate specifications from the
IDNR and IDALS staff. The actual estimate that should have been used is $323,675.00.
The enclosed Statement of Estimated Quantities prepared by EOR for Phase 1) Turf
Conversion and SQR of$323,675.00 consists of four components as shown below.
Phase 1) Turf Conversion and SQR Cost Estimate Amount
Total Turf Conversion $101,300.00
Total Soil Quality Restoration (SQR) $129,000.00
Total Erosion Control $53,950.00
Total Mobilization and Contingency $29,425.00
Total $323,675.00
The work involved with Phase 1) Turt Conversion and SQR is summarized as follows:
. Turf Conversion - seeding and conventional mulching with bluff prairie/savanna
seed mixture, forest/woodland seed mixture, and woodland with natives seed
mixture; hydromulch (bonded fiber matrix); and three-year vegetative
establishment / maintenance warranty period
. Soil Quality Restoration - seeding and conventional mulching with permanent
lawn mixture (SQR overseeding), deep core aeration, and compost installation
. Erosion Control - various required measures to meet National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit requirements

Applied Ecological Services bid is approximately $2,550 over EOR's estimated budget
with their bid of$326,225.20. The overage will be covered by remaining project funding
in the construction budget without impacting our ability to proceed with bidding Phase 2.

RECOMMENDATION
AES was the only firm to attend the pre-bid conference for the Phase 1 project, which
was held on July 24, 2019 in Eagle Point Park. Questions and comments from AES at
this bid conference resulted in the enclosed Addendum 1 to the project bid. This
discussion reflected the close attention AES gave to the plans and specifications.
AES is also the author of the Eagle Point Park Environmental Restoration Management
Plan. The firm's employees are familiar with the park and the best practices in Phase 1 .
AES is currently working on similar ecological restoration projects at Valentine Park and
Four Mounds Park.
It is important that the Phase 1 work begin this fall, to establish the necessary site
conditions for the subsequent work to be completed in the Spring of 2020. Phase 1 work
will be performed out of the Dubuque AES office with support from the AES office in
Brodhead, Wisconsin.
For these reasons, it has been determined that Applied Ecological Services of
Dubuque, lowa, with a bid in the amount of $326,225.20 is the lowest responsive,
responsible bidder for the project.
Our recommendation is for the City Council to adopt the enclosed resolution awarding
Applied Ecological Services the Eagle Point Park Environmental Restoration
Management Project: Phase 1) Turt Conversion and SQR in the amount of
$326,225.20.
