RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a Consulting Services Agreement (contract) Amendment with Fehr & Peers (F&P), effective February 28, 2022, to extend the term from February 28, 2022 through June 30, 2022, to provide transportation planning services to the County in preparation of the County’s first Active Transportation Plan (Plan), with no change to the payment limit of $300,000, Countywide. (Project No. 0676-6P1099) (All Districts)

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact with this action as it is only to extend the term of the contract. This project, including the contract, will be funded by 88.4% Sustainable Communities Planning Grant Funds (State) and 11.6% Transportation Development Act Funds.

BACKGROUND:

The original Agreement to provide transportation planning services to the County was approved by the Board on August 11, 2020.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On September 30, 2021, Administrative Amendment No. 1 was approved by the Public Works Director, effective January 1, 2021 to update the County’s contact information and to correct errors in the original Personnel and Billing Rates of the contract. On November 2, 2021, Amendment No. 2 was approved by the Board of Supervisors, effective November 9, 2021, to increase the payment limit from $250,000 to $300,000 and replace Personnel and Billing Rates of the contract to reflect changes in the allocation of funding by task.

Proposed Amendment No. 3 will extend the term of the contract from February 28, 2022 to June 30, 2022.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Without approval from the Board of Supervisors, the Consultant will not have sufficient time to complete the Plan.
