Page 1 of 3 Item #8 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT October 7, 2025 Public Works - Utilities Division TITLE: AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH WOOD RODGERS, INC. FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE STORMWATER SYSTEM MANAGEMENT PLAN, CIP NO. 25659 IN THE AMOUNT NOT-TO-EXCEED $2,192,186 (INCLUSIVE OF A 15 PERCENT CONTINGENCY) FOR FOUR YEARS SUMMARY The City’s stormwater drainage and conveyance system includes 228 miles of storm drain pipelines, inclusive of both City-owned and privately-owned infrastructure, 4 pump stations, numerous trash capture and pollution control devices, drop inlets, culverts, manholes, outfalls, and other related system features. While the stormwater system has been constructed incrementally over the years as a component of residential and commercial development, and operated and maintained by the City, there has not been an overarching Stormwater System Management Plan (Plan) in place to guide staff on all aspects of stormwater system management. The Plan is intended to guide decision making of the stormwater system for operations and maintenance, capital improvements, regulatory compliance requirements, resource staffing, as well as providing a framework for financial sustainability. RECOMMENDATION Authorize the City Manager to enter into a professional services agreement with Wood Rodgers, Inc. for the development of the Stormwater System Management Plan, CIP No. 25659 in the amount not-to-exceed $2,192,186 (inclusive of a 15 percent contingency) for four years. BACKGROUND The City’s storm drainage system consists of approximately 228 miles of storm drain pipelines, including both City-owned and privately-owned infrastructure. These pipes range in size from 10 inches to 90 inches, with the vast majority of pipelines being 12, 15, 18, 24, or 36 inches. System-wide, there are also four lift stations. Other assets include numerous trash capture devices, pollution control devices, drop inlets, culverts, manholes, outfalls, and other related system appurtenances (accessory features). Discharge from the City’s storm drainage system primarily goes directly to local channels and creeks operated and managed by the Zone 7 Water Agency or Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District. However, a small portion of storm drainage flows to City- owned stream corridors and detention basins. The City does not currently have a Stormwater System Management Plan and does not have dedicated funding to maintain, repair or replace the City’s storm drain systems. Major aspects of the study include compiling a comprehensive inventory of the existing public storm drainage system including field surveys, condition assessment, analysis of system related records, Docusign Envelope ID: DF86282A-2A84-404C-9F8A-A035AEFBCFF8
