The Department chose these firms (including individuals such as John Chiu) because of the wide range of services and competitive pricing provided. The Department continues to need outside plan review services to augment internal expertise. Since the need for services is not constant, John Chiu has been retained to provide plan review services on an intermittent basis. In addition to the use of outside firms, the Department has in the last three months filled one Structural Engineer Position. The Department is renowned in the Building Industry for the speed with which building plans are approved. The Department therefore intends to continue to utilize the services of John Chiu on an as needed basis as part of the Department's strategy to provide plan check services in a timely fashion. The current contract with John Chiu has an effective term of July 5, 2004 to July 4, 2005 in the amount of $24,500. The proposed contract will extend the contract period ending to December 31, 2005. The services will cost the Department $50 per hour and will not exceed $85,000. \bdord\Chiu.1204 December 14,2004 Page 2 of 2 f Contra Costa TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS :< �a COUI1t oSr� y c uz� „j FROM: DENNIS M.
