FILE NUMBER CI MANAGER RECOMMENDED ACTION Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute a third amendment to the consultant agreement with PDS Technical Services for temporary engineering and technical support services, increasing the agreement amount by $112,500 for a total agreement not to exceed $562,500 subject to nonsubstantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney. DISCUSSION In October 2009, the City Council approved an amendment to the agreement with PDS Technical Services for temporary engineering services. These temporary services will augment services provided by City staff and are required to complete the design of the City's Capital Improvement projects due to funding deadlines. PDS has been providing contract temporary staffing for several positions in the Public Works Agency due to the inability to fill vacant positions caused by the hiring freeze. Work performed by the temporary staff includes assistant engineering and grant oversight for several projects with critical delivery schedules, including the Residential Street Repair Program and the various Bristol Street Corridor projects. The current contract will be exhausted by the end of June 2010. Staff recommends approval of an additional $112,500 to allow services to be provided for an additional six months, or through December 2010. This will enable the City to complete projects funded in the Capital Improvement Program. Staff will prepare a Request for Proposal to solicit for a new temporary engineering services contract to commence at the completion of the existing contract. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action. 25F-1 Amendment to Agreement For Temporary Engineering and Technical Support Services June 21, 2010 Page 2 FISCAL IMPACT The proposed amendment will have a limit of $112,500 for a total amount of $562,500.
