Boyd , Deputy RECOMMENDATION(S): APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute Amendment No. 1 to an existing On-Call Consulting Services Agreement with Drake, Haglan and Associates, Inc., effective October 4, 2011, to extend the completion date of the agreement through October 12, 2012, with no increase to the current payment limit of $150,000, in order to complete on-call structural engineering services on current or future projects, Countywide. Project No.: Various FISCAL IMPACT: No fiscal impact. BACKGROUND: The Public Works Department is involved in various projects in the County which require structural engineering consulting services for road, flood control, and airport projects. After a solicitation process in 2009, this firm and two other firms were selected to provide structural engineering services on an “on-call” basis. During the past two years, the consultant has augmented Public Works staff with structural engineering expertise on an as-needed basis. They have been and will be used as an extension of County Public Works staff during busy times when extra help is needed or when in-house expertise is not available. On September 16, 2009, the consulting service agreement was approved by the Board of Supervisors. Approval of this Consulting Services Agreement Amendment No. 1 will allow the Consultant to continue providing structural engineering consulting services to the County on on-call basis through October 12, 2012. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Without approval from the Board of Supervisors, there will be possible delays in completing projects requiring structural engineering services. Executing this amendment will facilitate the process of design and construction for various Public Works projects requiring a structural engineering expertise. CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: None.
