The driving issue is the deteriorating concrete pavement which appears to be due to poor drainage and poor sub -grade. It is MSA's understanding that the portion of parking lot located on the south side of the Fire Department bay doors is a priority for reconstruction. Deterioration of the Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavement edges is readily observed. The City of Riverdale does not intend to reconstruct the parking lots at this time. However, for cost savings purposes, MSA proposes to redesign both parking lots. MSA understands the existing lighting is mostly LED. Therefore, there will not likely be energy savings in replacing light fixtures. MSA understands the City intends to utilize their own effort to bid the parking lots in the future. MSA can provide bidding and construction engineering services when the City decides to construct these parking lots. SCOPE OF WORK: 1. MSA will obtain pavement cores of the existing pavement and supporting aggregate base for both parking lots. 2. MSA will survey both parking lots. 3. MSA will prepare Contract Documents. The Contract Documents will include a demolition plan, a drainage plan, a paving plan (including turf restoration), specifications, and quantities with an associated opinion of probable construction cost. 4. After delivering Contract Documents and presenting to City Council, this project will be considered complete. TASKS PERFORMED BY THE CITY: 1. None MSA PROFESSIONAL SERVICES, INC.
