RECOI~tENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the agreements with the firms of
Melad & Associates, Roger Leggett, Inc., BSI Consultants, Inc. and GPS
Consulting Engineering and authorize the City Manager to execute said agreements
subject to City Attorney approval as to form.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
With the current development activity within the East Tustln Specific Plan area
and the current workloads in the Department of Community Development, outside
plan check and inspection consultants continue to be needed to help provide
Building Division services in a timely and effective manner. .The areas of .nl~n
check services are structural building plan check and on-site infrastructure
plan check which encompasses grading, street/storm drain . improvements and
landscape drawings of tract perimeters.
It is staff's desire: to renew the services of four of the City's current
consultants which have been used over the last year and a half. These
consultants have generally agreed to renew and extend their services and fees at
the same rates as approved over a year ago with one exception {fees have been
adjusted for one consultant to compensate for insurance coverage).
Staff feels that' by using the same consultants over the next year there will be
greater continunity provided in plan checking particularly large scaled, phased
projects in East Tustin that existing consultants have already begun work on.
Staff have also found existing services to be above average.
Each consultant's expertise in the projects completed during the last year are
as summarized in the attached exhibit.
