Administrator Lewis reviewed that Staff was provided initial feedback regarding the City’s 2027 Proposed
Trail Project Active Transportation Grant submitted to the Met Council in late July of 2026. The City of
Centerville provided a self-evaluation regarding the Americans with Disabilities Act report that was
required as part of the grant’s scoring rubric. It had been noted that the granted lacked a full pedestrian
ramp inventory rather than what was submitted. An inventory report for the project is necessary to be
scored and potentially be considered for funding. The city has an estimated 160+ pedestrian ramps. Staff
requested bids for an inventory and Stantec Engineering presented an estimate of $13,000 for an analysis
and critique of the existing pedestrian ramps; ISG Engineering presented an estimate of $12,500; and
WSB Engineering presented an estimate of $6,900 with a not-to-exceed number of $7,900, with a
supplemental report in the scope of work. It was stated that the inventory would be utilized for future grant
writing and infrastructure considerations.
Motion by Council Member Koski, seconded by Council Member Rios to approve WSB Engineering
to complete the Pedestrian Ramp Evaluation for $6,900 with Supplemental Reporting not-to-exceed
cost of $7,900. All in favor. Motion carried.
