RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with Fennie + Mehl Architects, effective October 17, 2019, to increase the payment limit by $20,000 to a new payment limit of $300,000 and to extend the term from October 17, 2019 to October 17, 2021, to provide architectural services for the remodel of Suite 200 for the County Administrator’s Office, Contra Costa Television (CCTV), 10 Douglas Drive, Suite 200, Martinez.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% Public Education and Government Cable Access Funds. (Project WH221A/B)

BACKGROUND:

On October 17, 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved a Consulting Services Agreement with Fennie + Mehl Architects in the amount of $280,000.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Amendment No. 1 is necessary to provide architectural services and additional costs associated with the completion of this project that is anticipated to be completed in early 2021.

Fennie + Mehl Architects and the specialized engineering consultants assembled for the CCTV Project have the design and technical experience that is appropriate to the scale and scope of this Project.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this Amendment No. 1 is not approved the project will be delayed, which will ultimately result in higher project costs.
