RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with Loving Campos Associates, Architects, Inc. d/b/a LCA Architects, Inc., effective October 13, 2020, to increase the payment limit by $205,000 to a new payment limit of $400,000 and to extend the term from November 11, 2022 to November 11, 2023 to provide as-needed architectural services for various County projects.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% various funds as projects are awarded.
BACKGROUND:
Amendment No. 1 is necessary for LCA Architects, Inc. to continue to provide as-needed architectural services associated with the completion of ongoing and future new projects. LCA is familiar with the countywide projects for design and construction. Therefore, it is recommended that the contract amendment be awarded at this time.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If Amendment No. 1 is not approved, projects currently in process will be delayed, which will ultimately result in higher project costs.
