APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Interim Public Works Director, or designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, a contract amendment with Smith & Associates, Inc., effective May 24, 2017, to increase the payment limit by $100,000, to a new payment limit of $190,000, and extend the termination date from May 24, 2017 to May 24, 2018, to continue to provide on-call appraisal services, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

BACKGROUND:

In March 2015, the Public Works Department Real Estate Division requested a statement of qualifications from various appraisal firms. After conducting interviews, Smith & Associates, Inc., were selected to provide appraisal services for road, flood control, airport and various other projects.

The Real Estate Division continues to have a need for on-call appraisal services. Extending this contract will allow the Division to obtain appraisal services when needed without unnecessary delays.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Public Works Department will be unable to deliver timely appraisal reports for various projects.
