The City of Madison Engineering Division is proposing to conduct watershed and flood studies for the City as a result of extreme rain events over the past several years.

Pursuant to City Ordinances and Policies, the City Engineer advertised for consultant proposals, reviewed the submitted proposals, and recommends the engineering contract be awarded to Tetra Tech, Inc.

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Mayor and City Clerk are hereby authorized to execute an agreement with Tetra Tech, Inc. for engineering services for East Isthmus and Yahara Watershed Study.
