From: Terry Maurer Sent: Wednesday, November 24, 2010 8:00 AM To: Patrick Klaers Subject: FW: CAD Technician Hourly Billing Rates Pat, In thinking about the plan preparation process for the 2011 PMP project, !believe the best, fastest and most cost effective way to proceed would be to use the Roseville staff. Matt who prepared the feasibility study will be available until the end of January and could have plans and specs ready to be bid by that time. I have checked with Roseville (Kris and Deb) and they have the capacity to do this work with the exception of an autocadd technician. t have asked Matt for an estimate of the number of hours he would need an autocadd technician to complete the plans. He estimated about 120 hours. 1 also asked Matt to pull out the consultant rates for autocadd technicians from the proposals we received for the Old Snelling work recently contracted with Kimley Horn. (The rates are in the email below) The lowest hourly rate for a technician was $65 /hour from Elfering and Associates. I did place a calf to them to them to see if they were interested in contracting for this service and who would be available. (It's a technician I have had do work for me at Elk River) E am requesting that we contract with Elfering and Associates for a technician to assist Roseville staff in preparing the 2011 PMP plans so that the project will be ready to bid by the end of January. The total cost of this service would certainly be under $10,000 and probably more like $7,500. Let me know your thoughts on this suggestion.
