RESOLUTION APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING A
CHANGE OF SCOPE OF WORK FOR MSA ENGINEERING
BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR THE
NPDES PERMIT ADMINISTRATION
AGREEMENT, 2014-2019
WHEREAS, by an agreement entered into by the City Council of the City of Riverdale,
Iowa("City") and MSA Professional Services, Inc. ("MSA") in 2014 anticipated a more
narrowly defined role for MSA in collecting, analyzing and preparing NPDES Permit reports for
the Iowa Department of Natural Resources ("DNR") on behalf of the City; and,
WHEREAS, MSA, the then Mayor, and the Riverdale City Administrator determined that
early assessments as to the ability of City elected officials and city staff did not foresee the
complexity and time requirements necessary to properly prepare and file the aforesaid NPDES
reports with the DNR, and did review the remaining requirements and determine that it was in
the best interest of the City to acknowledge the added scope of work required to properly file
said NPDES reports with the DNR; and,
WHEREAS, MSA did provide a letter dated January 4, 2018 identifying estimates of the
additional work and the related costs required to properly file NPDES reports on behalf of the
City, which additional costs are projected to be $12,678 more than the original 2014 estimate of
$23,500, which letter is attached to and made a part of this Resolution.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF RIVERDALE IN THE STATE OF IOWA:
Section 1. That the City Council acknowledges that the scope of work necessary to
complete the City's NPDES filings with the DNR exceeds the original estimates, intends that
MSA should take responsibility for that additional work, and desires that the City should pay
MSA for the additional charges incurred.
PASSED AND APPROVED this 23 day of
' 2018.
