Background and Discussion:

This agreement is to provide staff augmentation for Construction Project Management and Inspection for non-CDBG projects. This amendment is to raise the limit by $1,000,000. Continuation of the current agreement is necessary to support the work planned for implementation of the 2018 Bond Program during the upcoming year.

 

Expected Impact:

Allows continuity of current project assignments for construction project managers and inspectors. Maintains status quo of all current staff augmentation levels for non-CDBG projects.  The amended funding will allow continued service for one year.

 

Alternative Options:

The alternatives include selecting another firm or hiring additional full-time staff to conduct the work. However, those alternatives will take more time and could delay project management and inspection services on non-CDBG projects.

 

Alignment with Goal(s):

_ Justice and Safety

_ Economic Opportunity

_ Housing

_ Public Health

_ Transportation

X Flooding

_ Environment

_ Governance and Customer Service
