ACCESS AND SAFETY SURVEY
B. Moore Iacofano Goltsman, Inc., is certified as a women owned firm and therefore satisfies the WBE
goal of the County's Minority and Women Business Enterprise Contract Compliance Program. The
scope of services provides no opportunity for subconsultants. Consequently, there is no opportunity
to satisfy the MBE goal.
C. Negotiations have been completed and an appropriate agreement is ready to sign.
D. The County must proceed with this agreement for architectural services because it does not have
sufficient staff to provide the services.
