Amend contract with W.R. Gray & Co.
for consulting services for the GEBROC
Continued - Page 2 of 2
Following issuance of the RFQ, William R. Gray & Company was
subsequently selected from among three consultant proposals to
provide GEBROC for support services. This new one-year contract
for $36, 000, authorized by the Board of Supervisors on September
14, 1993 , is administered for GEBROC by the Community Development
Department and is funded by PVEA grant funds.
The Director of Community Development is requesting authorization
to amend the previous contract to reimburse William R. Gray &
Company for expenses during the extended transitional period. This
amendment would increase the contract payment limit an additional
$3,705, from $24, 600 to $28, 305, and extends the contract terms
from May 31, 1993 through August 31, 1993 . The Transportation
Committee has reviewed this matter and concurs with this contract
amendment authorization.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
Should the Board of Supervisors reject this request, the consultant
would not be compensated for expenses incurred during the period
from May 31, 1993 through August 31, 1993 .
