Report on proposals for engineering services.
Tim Gubala reported that a subcommittee composed of Charlie Saul,
Bill Branch and he met on February 3, 1995, to review proposals
from four local engineering firms presenting professional
engineering and geologic services for the Beahm property.
Interviews were scheduled for February 10, 1995, with Lumsden
Associates, T. P. Parker & Son, Mattern & Craig, and Hayes, Seay,
Mattern & Mattern. These firms were asked for a preliminary budget
for both geologic investigations and engineering services.
The following prices were quoted:
Geologic Engineering Phase I
Phase I Phase II Phase I Complete report Total
HSM&M $2,000 $7,000 $8,000 $5,000-$7,000
Mattern & Craig $8-10,100 $800 $3,100 $8,800-10,200
T.P. Parker & Son $4,700 $1,300 $6,500 $6,000
Lumsden Associates $8,800 $800 $5,000 $9,600
Based on the presentations and prices, the subcommittee felt that
Lumsden Associates and Geotechnics offered the best team and
approach to the Beahm site.
Upon a motion by Bill Branch, seconded by Ron Martin, the Authority
authorized the chairman to sign a contract with Lumsden Associates,
not to exceed $10, 000 for an initial phase of geologic testing and
engineering services. If costs exceed $10, 000, they must be
specifically reviewed and approved by the Roanoke County Department
of Economic Development. These tests and report are requested to
be completed by April 1, 1995. The motion passed unanimously.

money to the Authority.
