REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS AND BACKGROUND:
The public works department is recommending that the county enter into a contract for construction management
inspection services. The construction division uses consultants to augment our current inspection staff. The
consultants will be used to inspect privately constructed facilities„within the public road right of way or flood control
rights of way.
The Public Works Department went through a consultant selection process that outreached to over fifty (50)
engineering construction management firms. From the responses, eight firm's were invited in for interviews.
Ghirardelli Associates was selected by the committee as one of the most qualified firms to represent the county.
The proposed contract will be for a two year on-call construction management services. As the need arises for staff
assistance in inspection, the construction division of public works department will solicit the on-call firms to
determine the availability of staff. The staff will be then brought on and once the assignment is completed or the
workload decreases the consultant staff person will be relieved from the assignment. The entire cost of the contract
and inspection services will be covered by either Developer or permit fees.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the Consultant Services Agreement with Ghirardelli Associates is not approved, it may not be possible to
complete inspections or construct the project.
