RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a Consulting Services Agreement with Hultgren-Tillis Engineers, in an amount not to exceed $150,000 for on-call geotechnical engineering services for the period December 15, 2009 through December 14, 2011.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no impact to the General Fund. Work performed under this on-call agreement is funded by developer fees; road, flood control and airport project funds.
BACKGROUND:
The Public Works Department is involved in various projects in the County which require geotechnical engineering services for road, flood control, and airport projects. After a solicitation process, this firm was selected, as one of three firms, to provide geotechnical engineering services on an “on-call” basis. The consultant will augment Public Works design staff on an as-needed basis. They will be used as an extension of County Public Works design staff during busy times when in-house expertise is not available. This on-call agreement will be in effect for two years.
