SUBJECT: Consultant Contract to Prepare the Environmental Impact Report W
for the West County Justice Center.
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve and authorize the Chairman of the Board to execute
on behalf of the County a contract with the firm of EIP Associates in the
amount of $65,800, for the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report
for the West County Justice Center.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The West County Justice Center is a County project. . Funds
for the preparation of the EIR were included .in the New Detention Facility
Planning Account in the FY 1985-86 County budget. The costs of EIR pre-
paration are to be included in the County's 25% local match for obtaining
County Jail Capital Expenduture Fund monies from the state.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION: An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the proposed
project is required by the termsof the California Environmental Quality
Acta The consulting firm and its EIR preparation proposal were selected
through a standard competitive procedure for EIR work.
IV. BACKGROUND: The California Environmental Quality Act requires the preparation
of an EIR for a proposed project where the project is subject to a discre-
tionary action by a unit of. government and where there is reason to believe
that the proposed project would result in one or more significant (i .e. adverse)
environmental impacts. The project requires discretionary approval by the
Board of Supervisors. The Initial Study for the project identified several:
potential significant impacts , and others were identified by citizens and
governmental agencies responding to the project's Notice of Preparation.
V. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Failure to execute this contract would delay
the preparation and certification of the EIR. A certified EIR is a pre-
requisite for site acquisition and Board of Supervisors' approval of the
project.
