SPECIFIC REQUESTS OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION
APPROVE a consulting services agreement with Leslie D. Richardson, 600 Balra Drive, El Cerrito, for
architectural and project management services for various building remodeling and construction projects.
The agreement will be effective January 2, 1996 and will have a payment limit of $100,000.00;
AUTHORIZE the Director of General Services to execute the agreement.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT
Funds will not be encumbered by the agreement, except when services are ordered on a project-by-project
basis by the County Supervising Architectural Engineer. Such services will be charged to the appropriate
capital project fund or to department funds when services are requested by client departments.
III. RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND
1. Leslie D. Richardson has been providing architectural services as a consultant for the County since July
1988, when he was recruited to help with construction administration for the new Public Works office
addition on Glacier Drive. Subsequently, he was retained to provide architectural, project management,
and inspection services for the new Public Works Corporation Yard and various other projects at
Merrithew Hospital, as a contract employee. The Architectural Division must keep up with client and
contractor needs on a timely basis, to reduce delays in designing, remodeling and building County
facilities and to avoid contractor claims for delay damages. This contract employee arrangement has
provided a flexible means of supplementing the Architectural Division staff.
2. The Architectural Division, under this Agreement, will be able to issue work orders to the Consultant
for each assignment. Each order will include a payment limit and a work authorization charge number.
This Agreement will help the Architectural Division perform its professional services with continuity
and with improved efficiency.
