TO: City Council
FROM: Director of Public Works/City Engineer
ENGINEERING PLAN CHECKING
RECOMMENDATION:
That City Council approve the Second Amendment to Agreement No. 4028 with
Fomotor Engineering and the Second Amendment to Agreement No. 4192 with
NRO Engineering , for Engineering Plan Checking, for an additional period of one
year, or until October 17, 2002.
SUMMARY:
Initially, Agreement No. 4028 and No. 4192 provided the Engineering Department
with plan check services for street, sewer, grading, traffic signal and other various
improvement plans, subdivision maps, and engineering reports for a period of two
years. A first amendment to those agreements extended the term an additional
year. The second amendment to these agreements will extend the terms fora final
one year extension.
BACKGROUND:
On October 7, 1998, the City Council approved Contract Services Agreements for
engineering plan checking services with LIMA Engineering and Fomotor
Engineering, for a term of two years, with an additional approval with NRO
Engineering as an alternate in the event one of the original agreements was
terminated. Subsequently, Agreement No. 4027 with LIMA Engineering and
Agreement No. 4028 with Fomotor Engineering were authorized.
However, during the initial term of the agreements, Agreement No. 4027 with LIMA
Engineering was terminated, as the firm closed its local office and ceased services
with the City. Consequently, Agreement No. 4192 was approved with NRO
Engineering, pursuant to the Council's authorization given at its October 7, 1998,
meeting. That authorization also provided for two, one-year extensions of the
agreements at staff's discretion; however, that authority was not transferred to the
associated Minute Orders, nor to the respective Agreements.
As such, it is necessary that Council approve these second amendments to extend
the engineering plan check service agreements for a final one year extension. It
is staff's recommendation that engineering plan checking services continue
unabated with the firms currently providing those services, and will begin the
process next year to solicit firms to provide the City with engineering plan check
services following the termination of these agreements in October 2002.
