About this file

This document is an Exhibit A outlining rate study milestones for RFP #57-26 issued by the City of Clearwater, Florida for utility rate study services covering water and sewer, solid waste and recycling, and stormwater utilities. The consultant will be responsible for developing rate structures for these three major utility systems and providing comprehensive consulting services including report preparation, financial analysis, and recommendations for long-term fiscal planning. The scope of work is divided into two study types: an Interim Study and a Major Study, each with defined deliverables and milestones that guide the consultant through data collection, analysis, and presentation phases.

The Interim Study consists of six milestones focused on efficient delivery, requiring the consultant to collect baseline information from City staff, prepare draft schedules and results for interactive review meetings, and deliver a final letter report. The Major Study is significantly more comprehensive, encompassing seventeen milestones that include multiple interactive meetings with City staff and management, optional secondary review sessions, individual meetings with five City Council members, attendance at City Council work sessions and meetings, and delivery of a final rate study report. Both study tracks emphasize collaborative stakeholder engagement through scheduled interactive meetings where the consultant presents findings, incorporates feedback, and refines analyses prior to final report submission to the City of Clearwater.
