RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Chief Information Officer, Department of Information Technology, or designee, to execute a consulting services agreement with CSI Telecommunications, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $750,000 to provide professional services for the design of a new communications tower, equipment shelter, and site to replace the tower at the 651 Pine Street Building Complex, for the period of July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2023.   
  

FISCAL IMPACT:

The cost for this agreement is funded with General Fund Capital Reserves.   
BACKGROUND:

The Board at its meeting of December 8, 2020 authorized the County Administrator to direct the Chief Information, Department of Information Technology (DoIT), to relocate the telecommunications infrastructure located in and on the 651 Pine Street Building Complex due to the upcoming demolition of the structure. The services provided by the consultant under this consulting services agreement include designing the new communications tower and equipment shelter, surveying the new site for the radio/microwave tower, performing geotechnical analysis, providing civil engineering plans, including a detailed site layout, grading and grounding plans, shelter and tower positions and utility layouts, suggesting road improvements, providing power requirements, filing or modifying County Federal Communications Commission licenses as well as numerous other activities to ensure that the public safety radio equipment and frequencies are working to maximum capacity.   
  
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this agreement is not approved, DoIT will not have the resources to relocate the communications tower and will impede the plans for the demolition of the 651 Pine Street building.
