2.  2026 General Engineering Support Services

GHD proposes to provide general engineering support services, which mirror our previous contract authorized
by the Town. These services shall include:

2.1  General Engineering Retainer Services
GHD agrees to render general engineering retainer services to the Town as outlined below. Retainer services
represent tasks associated with the general municipal consultation addressed by the Project Manager/Town
Engineer. Retainer services include the following:
–  Attendance at the Town Board work sessions and regular meetings per the schedule.
–  Providing general consultation, department reporting, project updates, and advising the Town Board
  during their meetings.
–  Attendance at Planning Board work sessions and regular meetings.
–  High level review and comment letters on any Planning Board applications that require engineering
  approval.
–  Working with the Planning Department on general issues related to applications.
Based upon the services outlined above, GHD proposes to provide General Engineering Retainer Services for
a lump sum fee of $22,800, invoiced in equal monthly installments of $1,900.

2.2  General Municipal Engineering Services
GHD shall also provide general municipal engineering services including support associated with specific Town
projects, general operation of the Engineering Department, working with the Town Board and other Town
departments, and meeting the general engineering needs of the Town. The general services will include the
following:
–  Assistance with selection of outside firms for Town projects or needed services and coordination and
  supervision of those projects as Town representative (GHD design services for Town projects would be
  under a separate proposal).
–  Supervision of staff in the Engineering Department and work-related activities.
–  Review of site plan applications including fully engineered drawings and related materials following
  Planning Board approval and participation in related meetings requested by applicants/developers or their
  representatives.
–  Complete Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) reviews and supervise engineering staff for
  stormwater inspections (GHD will complete stormwater inspections only when need occurs and Town staff
  is unavailable to a maximum of two inspections per year. GHD can provide a separate proposal for
  additional inspections if requested).
–  Providing general consultation and advising the Town’s Stormwater Coordinator and other related
  departments on stormwater management and regulatory issues, and attendance at WNY Stormwater
  Coalition meetings.
