HomeMy WebLinkAbout9/3/2003 - STAFF REPORTS (2) DATE: SEPTEMBER 3, 2003 TO: COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY FROM: DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT SECOND AMENDMENT TO CONTRACT SERVICES AGREEMENT #A443C WITH ROSENOW SPEVACEK GROUP, INC. FOR CONSULTING SERVICES FOR REDEVELOPMENT PLAN EMINENT DOMAIN AMENDMENTS RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Agency approve a second amendment to a contract services agreement with Rosenow Spevacek Group, Inc. extending the agreement for one additional year. SUMMARY: The Agency approved a contract services agreement with Rosenow Spevacek Group in May 2002 to provide redevelopment plan consulting services for the reestablishment of eminent domain authority in the Agency's two merged redevelopment plan areas. The original contract amount of $95,700 was increased 5% to $100,485 by the Agency's Executive Director in August 2002 to reflect increased services required to produce an amended and restated plan for each of the two merged areas. The original contract term of one year, even if extended 180 days by the Agency Executive Director as allowed under the original contract, is insufficient to conclude the amendment process for the Tahquitz-Andreas Area of Merged Area No. 2 due to the need to establish a Project Area Committee. The extension of the original contract term by one full year, resulting in an amended contract term of two years, will provide sufficient time for the required PAC activities and the consultant's continued role during this time. BACKGROUND: The Agency approved a contract service agreement with Rosenow Spevacek Group ("RSG") in May 2002 to provide redevelopment plan consulting services for the reestablishment of eminent domain authority in each of the Agency's ten original redevelopment project areas. These ten areas were merged into two redevelopment project areas in May 2000. The original amount of the RSG contract was $95,700 with a contract term of one year. Under authority granted by the original contract, the Agency's Executive Director, as Contract Officer, increased the contract amount by 5% to $100,485 in August 2002 to reflect increased services required to produce an amended and restated plan for each of the two merged areas as part of the eminent domain amendment process. A total of $71,000 has been paid to the consultant so far under the contract and it is not anticipated that any further increases in the contract amount will be needed. An extended period of time is required to complete the amendment process for the Tahquitz-Andreas Constituent Area of Merged Project No. 2 due to the required establishment of a Project Area Committee ("PAC") to consider the amendment and formulate a recommendation to the Agency and City Council in this regard. A similar effort for all other portions of Project Areas No. 1 and 2 was 6�# ,2 completed in February of this year but did not require the formation of a PAC due to the exclusion of residential properties from eminent domain authority in those areas. The original contract authorized the Agency's Executive Director, as Contract Officer, to extend the time to perform the services under the original contract by no more than 180 days. To provide sufficient time for the required PAC activities, and the consultant's continued role during this time, it is necessary to extend the current contract beyond the 180-day time extension provided for in the original contract. The extension of the original term by one year to May 2004, or a total contract term of two years, will provide sufficient time to complete the PAC discussion and the final amendment process for the Tahquitz-Andreas Area.
