*Clark Patterson Lee does not bill Towns for general services provided by the Primary Review
Engineer, as it is our experience that this is less than 10% of time billed to projects with escrow.
It is our policy at Clark Patterson Lee that incidental reproductions completed in our office are
overhead and incorporated into our billing rate. We also do not bill mileage expenses for travel to/
from and within the Town for the benefit of the Town. Where escrow accounts are established for
developer inspection services, mileage will be billed at the prevailing federal rate.

RE: Town of Wappinger
Planning Board Services
Dear Ms. Dao:
Clark Patterson Lee
DESIGN PROFESSIONALS
~,,,,,,, Thank you for the opportunity to propose representing the Town of Wappinger as the Planning Board
Engineer. We at Clark Patterson Lee recognize that today's municipal leaders are searching for better and
,y,,,,,,, more efficient ways to do business and taking steps to consolidate services and indentify ways to make
service delivery more effective. It is within this context that we propose a better model for providing
,.. professional consulting services to our municipal clients. Our approach is based on a unique business
structure that facilitates the provision of professional services on an as needed basis, without the typical
r charges to the general fund through a retainer or other billing means. We have successfully partnered
with several municipalities under this type of agreement. It's an agreement that continues to set us apart
y.. from our colleagues at other professional firms.
+"" Who We Are -Clark Patterson Lee has maintained an office in the Hudson Valley for over 30 years and
we are very familiar with the challenges and opportunities faced by local government. With our primary
~"" staff living in Dutchess County, we are capable of providing a timely response to the Town on an as-
needed basis. With our company focus on municipal services, we avoid conflicts of interest with
~"" Developers and other Engineers doing business in the Town.
~ How We Work -Our goal is to develop an enduring relationship with the Town, one that keeps you in
'rte control. Where requested by the Town, we have provided lump sum proposals for each review scope as
an alternative to hourly billing when desired by the Applicant. With this model, the Applicant is aware of
~,,,, their costs prior to being billed to their escrow.
~,,,., Full-Service -Clark Patterson Lee is uniquely organized to provide the full spectrum of professional
services a municipal client requires. While the organization chart shows Greg W. Bolner, P.E., to
~. represent the Town as your Planning Board Engineer, the chart also shows the professionals within our
organization who have the specific technical expertise that might be called upon for a subdivision or site
~ plan review. Mr. Bolner will ensure that the services needed by the Town will be efficiently delivered by
our most qualified professional.
Thank you for taking the time to review our proposal. I would appreciate the opportunity to tell you more
""' about our capabilities as a firm and how we can structure our services in a way that best suits the Planning
Board's needs. Please call me at (845) 220-7190 to schedule a time.
Sincerely,
"~"` Clark Patterson Lee

Clark Patterson Lee
Clark Patterson Lee has served the Hudson Valley since the mid 1970s when Clark Engineers
began providing civil engineering services here and in Western New York. Since, Clark Patterson
Lee has significantly expanded its municipal services and geographic reach by establishing lasting
relationships with municipal clients and delivering Planning Board services in a timely and cost
efficient manner. Our focus and dedication is based on our duty as design professionals as well
as our desire as residents and neighbors to serve the interests of the community since we live in
Dutchess County and the Hudson Valley.
Clark Patterson Lee's business in the Hudson Valley area and New York is almost exclusively with
governmental and institutional clients. Due to this, we are unlikely to have had a prior (or ongoing)
business relationship with a potential developer that may come before the Town resulting in a conflict
of interest or bias.
Mr. Greg Bolner will be the primary review engineer working with the Town of Wappinger Planning
Board and has over 30 years of civil engineering experience in the private development and municipal
sectors. He also has over 10 years experience working as a lead engineer for municipal clients in
Dutchess County, including site plan and subdivision reviews. With a staff of nearly 200 design
professionals spanning the fields of engineering, architecture, planning and construction services,
Clark Patterson Lee has the technical expertise available to provide a quality engineering and/or
architectural review of virtually any project that may come before the Planning Board.
This proposal includes a list of Civil Engineering and Planning Services we provide as an example of
~` our experience, which we would apply to site plan reviews. Because these professionals are in-house
and available to Mr. Bolner, specialized aspects of a project will receive a quality review without
the incurring additional costs or delays in review associated with bringing in another firm. While
,r+ Clark Patterson Lee is not proposing to provide planning services as a stand-alone function, Clark
Patterson Lee has planners on staff to supplement our ability to provide the Town quality Planning
'~"" Board reviews.
r..
Project Review Delivery
,,,, Clark Patterson Lee understands the Town of Wappinger's meeting and submission schedule is a
period of approximately four weeks from submission to being placed on the Planning Board agenda.
+~ This is more than adequate time to complete a thorough review of the material submitted and provide
a comment letter outlining where the plan does not conform to Town code to the Town Planning
~` Board in advance ofthe meeting. We would propose to submit in both an electronic format and a hard
