Rates Baker - Aicklen & Associates, Inc. CONSULTING ENGINEERS DATE: January 8, 1991 SUBJECT: City Council Meeting, January 10, 1991 ITEM: 1311. Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to enter into an Engineering Contract with Baker Aicklen and Associates for the Onion Creek diversion. STAFF RESOURCE PERSON: Jim Nuse STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The owners of the Classic Olds /GMC franchise is building a new facility in the Onion Creek Basin. They requested their engineer, Baker Aicklen and Associates to investigate the possibility of participating in the Regional Detention program. This firm approached the City of Round Rock with a project which would divert flows from a currently uncontrolled region in the upper basin to Behren's Lake (S.C.S. 12). Prior to coming to the Council, this program was presented to the WCID and their consultant, the Soil Conservation Service. Official authorization to proceed on designs has been given by the W.I.C.D. The Engineering fee of $2,900 is presented on a lump sum basis and construction staking at a maximum rate of $1,600 is also included in the agreement. The Engineering Staff recommends this project. The costs will be paid by the Regional Detention program funds. It is further estimated that the funds from pending projects in the Onion Creek Basin will cover the entire cost and this project will benefit the entire basin.
