In selecting a recommended Consultant to perform the Housing Trust

a Request for Qualifications to over 45 firms. The County received
nine Statements of Qualifications from interested consultant teams.
Based on a review of these qualifications, staff recommended and
the Board of Supervisors approved the selection of four teams to
submit proposals in response to a staff developed RFP. The
proposed prime contractors for these four teams are: Bay Area
Economics; Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. ; Kotin, Regan, Mouchly,

Staff developed the required RFP and circulated it to the four
identified teams. Responses were received from all four. Based on
an analysis and comparison of each team's qualifications and
experience in housing trust funds and related areas, their
demonstrated understanding of the project issues, the proposed
scope of work, and proposed budget, staff recommends that Keyser
Marston and Associates be selected to conduct the Housing Trust
Fund Study for the County.
