APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with CH2M
Hill, Inc., effective November 5, 2015, to extend the termination date from November 5, 2015 to November 5, 2017,
for on-call structural engineering services, with no change to the original payment limit of $250,000, Countywide.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Work performed under this amendment is funded by developer fees; and various other local, state and federal funds
for road, flood control, and airport projects.
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 2012, this firm and
four other firms were selected to provide structural engineering services on an “on-call” basis. On November 6, 2012,
a consulting service agreement with CH2M Hill, Inc. was approved by the Board of Supervisors.
Since the original consulting service agreement was executed, the Consultant provided on-call structural engineering
services on multiple projects. While most of these projects have been completed, there are several on-going projects
that have task orders that require Consultant’s engineering services beyond the Agreement’s November 5, 2015
expiration. In order to allow these task orders to continue without disruption, the contract is being extended solely for
the completion of these task orders. The Consultant needs to complete the following:

Approval of this Consulting Services Agreement Amendment No. 1 will allow the Consultant to continue providing
structural engineering consulting services to complete the task orders through December 31, 2017. No increase in the
contract amount.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the contract amendment is not approved, the projects will experience delays and added costs as County solicits for
new professional services which will duplicate previous work.
