BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
geotechnical engineering consulting services to the County on an on-call basis through December 31, 2012. On
March 13, 2012, Amendment No. 2 was approved to increase the payment limit by $100,000 to provide on-call
geotechnical engineering services on multiple projects. While most of these projects have been completed, the
Walden Green - Phase 2 Project is in its final steps and will be completed by March 31, 2013. The Iron Horse
Corridor Risk Assessment project is also underway and is anticipated to be complete within six months.
Approval of this Consulting Services Agreement Amendment No. 3 will allow the Consultant to complete their
current tasks on Walden Green - Phase 2 and the Iron Horse Corridor Risk Assessment. The only work to be
performed by Consultant under this Amendment No. 3 is the completion of Consultant's work on Walden Green -
Phase 2 and the Iron Horse Corridor Risk Assessment.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this Amendment No. 3 is not approved, the Walden Green - Phase 2 and Iron Horse Corridor Risk Assessment
projects will experience delays and added costs as County solicits for new professional services which will
duplicate previous work.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Not applicable.
