COUNCIL ACTION: Approval of the Regularly Scheduled Meetings of the Lake Forest City
Council for the year 2020
2. Authorization for the City Manager to enter into a Professional Services Agreement
with Craig Bergmann Landscape Design, Inc. and Mariani Landscape for
Professional Landscape Architectural Services for a period of three years
STAFF CONTACT: Chuck Myers, Superintendent of Parks & Forestry (810-3565)
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Staff is requesting City Council authorization and direction
to enter into a professional services agreement with Craig Bergmann Landscape Design, Inc.
and Mariani Landscape for professional landscape architectural services.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The City of Lake Forest regularly contracts with outside service
providers to perform architectural landscape services and manage landscape project site
planning and design for various projects. In an effort to improve efficiency and provide
consistency on City projects, staff is seeking to establish a contract that will provide a
professional landscape architect on retainer.
Landscape architectural services will include, but are not limited to, architecture, site analysis,
site planning, site design, sustainable design, construction specification and insuring that all
plans meet the current building codes and local and federal ordinances. Additionally, the
5
Monday, May 20, 2019 City Council Agenda SECOND SESSION
firm will be expected to collaborate with City staff; which may include, but is not limited to,
the Parks and Recreation Department, Engineering Department, Community Development
Department and Public Works Department. The firm may also be required to present project
plans to City Boards and Commissions which may include, but is not limited to, City Council
and the Civic Beautification Committee.
In an effort to improve efficiency and provide consistency on City projects, staff is seeking to
establish an agreement that will designate two landscape architectural firms, Craig
Bergmann Landscape Design, Inc. will continue to act as the primary and Mariani Landscape
will act as secondary for landscape architectural services. The addition of a secondary firm
will provide the City with more flexibility in contracting for landscape design services, based
on the types of projects and the current work loads of the firms.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: On March 20, 2019 a Request for Proposals (RFP) was released by the
City, published in the Lake County News Sun, and posted on the City’s website. On April 9,
2019, five submittals were received and a selection committee, comprised of City staff from
three departments was formed to review and evaluate the written responses. Interviews were
also conducted to further evaluate the firm’s qualifications and their ability to successfully
provide these services for the City.
After careful consideration, Craig Bergmann Landscape Design, Inc. and Mariani Landscape
were selected by the selection committee as the successful candidates. The basis for the
selection was as follows:
• Both firms met, and surpassed all qualifications outlined in the RFP.
• Both firms have extensive experience with local and municipal landscape projects and
an outstanding reputation in the community.
• Both firms have presented reasonable fee schedules associated with their proposed
project teams.
Has City staff obtained competitive pricing for proposed goods/services? Yes
Company Name Hourly Team Member Rate Range
Craig Bergmann Landscape Design $75 - $200
Mariani Landscape $125 - $250
Hey and Associates $85 - $205
JSD Professional Services $85 - $220
Pamela Self Landscape Architecture $75 - $175
Below is an estimated summary of Project budget:

The FY2020 budget includes $20,000 in the Parks operating budget for Civic Beautification
from which some landscape architectural services may be paid. Work may also be paid from
other departments budget accounts as applicable, but any single project for which services
exceed $20,000 will be separately approved by the City Council. The contract with Craig

years, which will conclude at the end of FY2022.
COUNCIL ACTION: Authorization for the City Manager to enter into a Professional Services
Agreement with Craig Bergmann Landscape Design, Inc. and Mariani Landscape for
Professional Landscape Architectural Services for a period of three years.
3. Authorization to Dispose of City Property
STAFF CONTACT: Michael Thomas, Director of Public Works (810-3540)
PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Staff is requesting City Council authorization to dispose of
surplus City equipment. Per Administrative Directive 3-2, any item staff believes has a current
value of $4,000 or more, requires City Council approval to sell. The item is sold via a public
bidding process, and in this case, via multiple on-line and industry publications.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The 1994 Pierce Saber Pumper was taken out of service in April of
2019. The Vehicle was a front line apparatus until fall of 2017. The vehicle has played an
important role for our department for 25 years. It was set up to be our primary extrication
vehicle until 2007. It ran as our Westside engine until 2017, when it was replace by our 1991
engine. With the acquisition of the Knollwood engine, which was put into service April 2018,
engine 216 has become expendable to the fire department. The sale of this engine will allow
us to continue on our fleet replacement plan. Department staff advertised with GovDeals,
which is the online auction that the Fire Department has used to sell the last couple of fire
apparatuses.
The engine was advertised on GovDeals.com. GovDeals provides a platform to various
government agencies that allow them to sell surplus and confiscated items via the internet.
The highest bid received for the auction period did not meet our reserve price of $12,000.00.
The high bidder was $6,000.00. Reviewing the current market and dollars received for similar
units, staff believes the bid is a fair price and recommends approving the sale of the unit to
the highest bidder. Upon approval by City Council, staff will notify GovDeals that the sale was
approved and the transaction will proceed. Payment will be via wire transfer to The City of
Lake Forest.
BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: Per Section 3.10 of administrative Directive 3-2, all revenues received
from the sale of the ambulance will be credited to the appropriate fund from which the item
was purchased or carried in inventory; in this case, the Capital Fund.
COUNCIL ACTION: If determined to be appropriate by the City Council, staff requests
authorization to dispose of City property to the highest bidder via GovDeals as noted above.
All proceeds from the sale of this item will be deposited into the City’s Capital Fund.
COUNCIL ACTION: Approval of the three (3) Omnibus items as presented
