RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Conservation and Development Director, or his designee, to execute a contract amendment with Circlepoint, to extend the term from September 30, 2015 to December 31, 2016, with no change to the original contract payment limit of $124,990, for the environmental review of the proposed Ball Estates Subdivision. (Contract # C49463).

FISCAL IMPACT:

No impact to the General Fund. The cost for preparing the environmental impact report is charged to the project applicant.

BACKGROUND:

The Contra Costa County Department of Conservation and Development is the lead agency for the environmental review of the proposed Ball Estates Subdivision. Over the past year, the applicant has been working with East Bay Regional Parks District on the details of the staging area, which is included in the project. Therefore, the Department is requesting additional time for the professional services of Circlepoint to complete the environmental review of the project.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Department will be unable to complete the environmental review of a pending land development application.
