RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with JK2 & Associates, Inc., effective July 23, 2019, to increase the payment limit by $155,000 to a new payment limit of $375,000 and extend the termination date from December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2020, for continued real estate planning services for the Oak Park Sale of Surplus (South Pleasant Hill Parcels), Pleasant Hill area. (0928-WH113B).

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% General Fund

BACKGROUND:

The County owns 3 properties in the South Pleasant Hill area. One 10 acre parcel on Oak Park Boulevard south of Pleasant Hill Middle School is currently vacant (the School District has an ownership interest in 2 of the 10 acres). The County also owns the site of the Pleasant Hill Library on a 4.8 acre parcel south and west of Pleasant Hill Middle School.

In February 2014, the Board of Supervisors authorized County staff to work with the City of Pleasant Hill regarding the disposition of the County parcels. County staff has been in discussions with City staff on the allowable uses and development of the property. In preparation of placing the parcels on the market for sale, JK2 & Associates, Inc. was selected to assist staff with real estate planning services for the County’s parcels.

Due to recent changes in project scope, additional services are needed from JK2 & Associates, Inc. to complete the services specified in the original contract.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Staff will not be able to move forward with the planning process, which would delay placing parcels on the market.
