into with qualified firms which provide the requested service. Task Orders are used to
complete the work on an individual need basis.
DISCUSSION:
Public Works received approval to advertise a request for Statement of Qualifications to
solicit for professional services on July 1, 2025. Submittals from qualified firms were
due July 31, 2025. Public Works reviewed and scored submittals for professional services
including Material Testing, Structural Engineering, Property Acquisition, Archaeological,
