DESCRIPTION:
During the past several years, the City Council has authorized staff to hire outside consultants on an as
needed basis to assist staff with specific areas of technical expertise (CEQA, biology, large scale specific
plans, design review, etc.) and overflow of work. The Community Development Department has
contracted with several consulting firms on a proj ect by prof ect basis with much success. Anticipated
workloads over the next several years dictate that this Department continue to retain consultant firms to
handle overflow work in these areas including the general processing of entitlements for development
projects, as well as plan checks and field checks for those projects.
Staffis recommending adding an additional Planning Consultant, Deborah Ungo-McCormick, due to the
increase in projects that are being submitted for processing. With several large projects such as Sun,
Transit Center, Commerce One, and other large developments anticipated to begin construction, the need
for this type of service has increased significantly, therefore requiring staff to seek additional services in
order to keep up with the planning activities.
It is important to coordinate the availability of additional Community Development Department resources
to those in Public Works, Police, Fire and other outside interests to insure that all necessary resources are
available to handle a rapidly growing development review program and implementation of projects
approved and about to begin construction.
COPIES '7I'�o Consultant dG'�
ITEM NO.
This typical contract contains provisions that the consultant will only perform work on a time and
material basis at the direction of the Community Development DireCtor. No work will be done without
expressed permission and all costs will be charged to the Community Development Department budget in
accordance with costs associated with that project.
SUMMARY:
Again, as noted earlier, no work will be done or funds expended unless funding is available and it has
been determined that outside help is needed to meet a specific time objective. This standard contract is
similar in nature to the master contract that has been reviewed and approved by the City Attorney.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council receives the staff report, adopt Resolution approving the
Consulting Agreement and authorize the Community Development Director to sign the agreement on
behalf of the City.
