SUBJECT: CITYWIDE TOPOGRAPHY — APPROVAL OF PROFESSIONAL
SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH MERRICK & COMPANY
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Merrick & Company (Merrick), of
Colorado Springs, Colorado, for topographic services at a contract price of $45,740 and
authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Agreement.
DISCUSSION:
In 2001, the City hired Merrick to fly and prepare aerial maps of the City that are used
for our street and utility atlases. At that time, the City opted not to have Merrick produce
contour maps of the City.
Staff has defined a number of areas where City topography is useful including defining
drainage boundaries, identifying property boundaries adjacent to the Bay and Harbor,
defining City and Homeowner Association slope areas for weed abatement, modeling
fire hazards, monitoring hillside grading, and identifying drainage courses and detention
areas.
A 13 square mile portion of the Newport Coast area was successfully contoured by
Merrick last year. This agreement will have Merrick contour an additional 24 square
miles to provide complete topographic coverage of the City.
As requested by our GIS Division, the scope of topographic professional services will
include 2 -foot contours in Arc Info coverage format and a digital terrain model in ASCII
format.

RE: Service Request
Dear Mr. Stein,
Thank you for the request to have Merrick perform contour mapping for the City of Newport Beach.
Merrick will provide contours at a 2 foot interval over an approximate area just over 24 square miles.
This area corresponds to 112, 3,000'x 2,000' tiles from the City's existing tile scheme. The terrain
model will be stereo compiled from the City's existing 1" = 600' negative scale photography flown in
the spring of 2001. The resulting contours will meet National Map Accuracy Standards (NMAS) for 1
= 100' scale contours. The final contour lines will be delivered in an Arc Info coverage format. All data
will be mapped in horizontal datum NAD83, vertical datum NAVD 88 -92. Units will be California State
Plane Feet, zone 6. The deliverables are as follows:
• 2' contours in Arc Info Coverage format
• Digital Terrain Model (DTM) in ASCII format (.Ins & .pts)
Merrick can provide the identified services for a $45,740 lump sum fee.
Please feel free to contact me at 800 - 544 -1714 with any questions.
