The contract was for certain services in cormection with the development of an inclusionary housing ordinance. Payn~ent for services rendered was not to exceed $7,500 in professional fees ~md $500 in expenses, for a total of $8,000. The $7,500 professional fee was based on hourly rates of $150 for a CGMS Senior Associate and $100 for a Seifel Associates (Seifel) principal (Seifel was a subcontractor to CGMS). The scope of services approved as part of the contract contexnplated 30 hours each on the part of CGMS and Seifel. Included in those 30 hours were one meeting with each of City staff, the planning Commission and the City Council. It was tt~ought that either CGMS or Seifel would attend those meetings, but not both. However, as the process began, and as a result of City staff requests, both CGMS and Seifel artended the meetings. In addition, although the Planning Commission held one meeting as the contract contemplated, the City Council, meeting jointly with the Con-Lmission, held two meetings. All meetings were several hours in length. Both the Con'm-dss]on and Council. requested extensive further information at each meeting which required additional research, consultation with City staff and preparation of written material. CGMS would, therefore, request that the existing contract be an~ended to provide payment in an amount not to exceed $15,000. This amount includes both professional fees and expenses.
