______________________________________________________________________ TO: James Tierney, Town Manager FROM: Jonathan Gerhard, P.E., Town Engineer PREPARED BY: Susan W. Gallagher, Purchasing Manager SUBJECT: Reject Bids – RFP: Library Conversion Owner’s Representative

Services

RECOMMENDATION: That the Town Council rejects the bid received for the RFP: Library Conversion Owner’s Representative services and authorizes staff to solicit new bids with a revised scope of work. SUMMARY: On June 8 2021, we received and opened one proposal for Library Conversion Owner’s Representative Services associated with the conversion of the former Belmont Market Building into a modern and functional public library for the Town. The RFP was issued to three (3) vendors using the State MPA-430 Owner’s Representative Services for RI Architectural/Engineering and/or Public Construction Projects vendor listing and two (2) vendors responded (one as a “no bid”). The attached spreadsheet lists the results from the original solicitation. The proposal scope of work was inconsistent with the RFP, the proposal received is no longer valid (vendors are only required to hold their bid pricing for a 90-day period), and the Town and Library Board desire to seek new proposals and increase competition for the contract. Staff needs to solicit new bids with the refined Scope of Work, accordingly. The revised RFP will be issued using State MPA-430 to additional vendors to increase competition. ATTACHMENTS:

_____________________________________________________________________ TO: James Tierney, Town Manager FROM and: Susan W. Gallagher, Purchasing Manager PREPARED BY: SUBJECT: Contract for Liquid Propane Gas RECOMMENDATION: That the Town Council approves the contract for the purchase of Liquid Propane Gas with AmeriGas Propane, at the price of the Selkirk Posting +0.246 per gallon, for the period of October 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024. SUMMARY: Prior to 2015, the Town did not have contract or group pricing for propane; we simply paid the market price. In February of 2015, Town Council approved the use of the State of Rhode Island Master Price Agreement (MPA) #166 for the purchase of liquid propane gas through Amerigas at the price of the Selkirk Posting +0.35 per gallon. We had to switch from the company we were using to Amerigas so new tanks and concrete pads were required and installed at multiple locations (standard practice in the industry). In 2018, Town Council approved the contract extension with Amerigas through September 30, 2021 at the cost of Selkirk Posing +0.264 per gallon. Recently, new bids were solicited by the State of RI and awarded to a different vendor, Quality Propane out of CT. However, Amerigas is offering to match the State of RI MPA price of +0.246 per gallon over Selkirk Posting (a decrease from the current contract price). The staff would prefer to remain with Amerigas as a supplier due to the logistics involved in switching out propane tanks and pouring concrete pads and since they matched the State MPA price. Amerigas has been responsive when needed for emergency service as well. Funding is available in various departments’ budgets, in account “50407” for heating fuel. ATTACHMENTS:

1. Proposal/Agreement from Amerigas 2. State MPA #166, awarded to Quality Propane for comparison.




______________________________________________________________________ TO: James Tierney, Town Manager FROM: Christine Spagnoli, Director of Finance PREPARED BY: Susan W. Gallagher, Purchasing Manager SUBJECT: Award of Bid – Disaster Recovery Administrative Services RECOMMENDATION: That the Town Council awards the bid for Disaster Recovery Administrative Services to GZA GeoEnvironmental Inc. at their quoted hourly rates. SUMMARY: In the aftermath of a major pandemic/disaster, the Town of Narragansett seeks to protect its interests by securing the services of a qualified disaster recovery consultant to provide technical assistance and support in any potential task associated with Disaster Recovery Administrative Services. The Town recognizes that its facilities and operations are damaged and disrupted by a major disaster and its existing employees and systems need assistance with necessary disaster response and recovery work. In order to ensure a rapid recovery and post disaster redevelopment process, the Town will require the services of qualified, experienced professionals to manage state and federal grant management processes. The Town solicited proposals from qualified professional consulting firms to provide technical assistance and support with post-disaster recovery funding, debris management & monitoring, emergency planning, disaster recovery and hazard mitigation planning, maximize insurance recovery, and maintaining strict compliance and detailed documents to prevent costly project de-obligations. Request for proposals was advertised in the Narragansett Times, solicited and posted on the Town of Narragansett and State Purchasing Division websites. Three (3) vendors were solicited and five (5) responded. The attached spreadsheet lists the results from the solicitation. Each respondent was required to provide information, evidence, and exhibits in their submission to demonstrate their ability to satisfy the project requirements. A committee made up of the Finance Director, Fire Chief, and Town Manager examined and evaluated each submission based upon the firm’s capabilities, staffing, prior history, project understanding, knowledge of and past work experience for the State and local resources, and hourly rates as described in the request for proposals.

Award of Bid – Disaster Recovery Administrative Services

Council Meeting Date: November 1, 2021 Page 2

The Town utilized a qualification based selection process to evaluate the proposals with the selected firm to be determined based on their experience, qualifications, and understanding of the project as is allowed for professional services under RIGL 45-55. Having completed a review and scoring, we recommend the Town Council award the bid to GZA GeoEnvironmental, Inc. and their partner iPararmetics (GZA), GZA meets all of the criteria for experience and qualifications, submitted the lowest cost fee proposal, and demonstrated within their proposal a thorough understanding of the tasks and activities required to complete the required scope of work. GZA has completed various FEMA Public Assistance Projects for the Town recently, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. All staff involved were very satisfied with the work and assistance they provided. Funding is only required if the Town enters into task order agreements. Many of the administrative costs are recoverable through grants. If no grant is available and a department needs assistance, the funding will come from their department budget. ATTACHMENTS:

SUBJECT: Solicit surveys of Town of Narragansett Right-of Ways (R.O.W) to the following Ocean Access Points as requested by the newly formed Coastal Access Improvement Committee (CAIC)…

RECOMMENDATION: A MOTION to DIRECT the Town Manager to solicit an accredited surveyor to survey the following Town (R.O.W) Ocean Access Points:

#1 - Pilgrim Avenue

#2 - Conant Street

#3 - Hazard Avenue

#4 - Newton Avenue

#5 - Bass Rock Road

SUMMARY: The above long-standing generational Public Ocean Access Points are currently underutilized as Town Right of Ways for Public Use. This proposal is to survey these five (5) Public Ocean Access Points to determine encroachment of adjacent property owners, provide safe practical parking schemes and improve easier unrestricted access to these areas. It is critical to preserve these Public Ocean Access Points with parking and safeguard for future generational use by all...

Private property shall not be taken for public uses, without just compensation. The powers of the state and of its municipalities to regulate and control the use of land and waters in the furtherance of the preservation, regeneration, and restoration of the natural environment, and in furtherance of the protection of the rights of the people to enjoy and freely exercise the rights of fishery and the privileges of the shore, as those rights and duties are set forth in Section 17, shall be an exercise of the police powers of the state, shall be liberally construed, and shall not be deemed to be a public use of private property.

Section 17. Fishery rights — Shore privileges — Preservation of natural resources. The people shall continue to enjoy and freely exercise all the rights of fishery, and the privileges of the shore, to which they have been heretofore entitled under the charter and usages of this state, including but not limited to fishing from the shore, the gathering of seaweed, leaving the shore to swim in the sea and passage along the shore; and they shall be secure in their rights to the use and enjoyment of the natural resources of the state with due regard for the preservation of their values; and it shall be the duty of the general assembly to provide for the conservation of the air, land, water, plant, animal, mineral and other natural resources of the state, and to adopt all means necessary and proper by law to protect the natural environment of the people of the state by providing adequate resource planning for the control and regulation of the use of the natural resources of the state and for the preservation, regeneration and restoration of the natural environment of the state.

Last edit: 9/13/21 4:05 PM Coastal Access Improvement Committee Requests Surveys of Five Rights of Way

The Coastal Access Improvement Committee (CAIC) respectfully requests that the Narragansett Town Council encumber funds and find an accredited land surveyor for the purposes of evaluating the boundaries of several rights of way (ROWs). As the town body that reviews the status of all coastal ROWs in Narragansett a majority of the CAIC has agreed that there is a critical need for current land surveys given the effects of climate change, sea level rise, and coastal development.

It has come to the attention of the CAIC that 5 ROWs in particular are difficult to access and have problematic parking schemes which can inhibit public access and the ability of first responders to the coast in the event of an emergency. Additionally these access points are heavily used for fishing, surfing, swimming, and coastal hiking amongst other activities. Furthermore access may be encroached from adjacent property owners, and access to the water is restricted at some of these locations.

A survey of these ROWs would help to establish property lines and allow for an evaluation of the parking schemes, position of signage, foot paths, and potential impacts to public safety. Funding for these efforts could be procured through two "Green" bond initiatives from the State of RI, with a proposal deadline of October 29, 2021(https://www.ri.gov/press/view/41789). The specific ROWs that the committee is requesting to be surveyed are along Ocean Road and Calef Avenue and detailed below in Figures 1-5.

Fig 1. The eastern end of Pilgrim Avenue, potential encroachment, the road is narrow which may impact public safety, the foot path is also frequently muddy from poor drainage into the road and towards the ocean caused by irrigation of adjacent lawns.

2

Fig 2. The eastern end of Conant Avenue potential for encroachment by adjacent landowners, and

limited on-street parking.

Fig 3. The eastern end of Hazard Avenue, the slanted parking scheme and access to the water are both in need of evaluation, there is a potential for public safety issues given the narrow width of the Avenue.

Fig 4. The eastern end of Newton Avenue, similar to Hazard Avenue, the slanted parking scheme

leaves little room to maneuver and could present an public safety issue, access to the coast is also

limited to an overgrown foot path.

Fig 5. The eastern end of Bass Rock Rd, like Hazard and Newton Avenues has a constrained parking scheme. There is potential for better use of space and better managing the limited access to the coast via the footpath.
