SUBJECT:APPROVAL OF 2007-09 CONTRACT SCOPES OF CONSULTANT

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Finance Committee review the contract scopes of service of 2007-09
consultant services agreements greater than $85,000 and provide input for Council consideration
during the 2007-09 Budget process. (Attachment 1)
DISCUSSION
The Purchasing Manual provides that as part of the budget process, the Finance Committee approves
the scope of services for Capital Improvement Program (CIP) consultants over $85,000. This
requirement applies to feasibility studies and design or engineering services for a General Fund
capital improvement program.
The report excludes recurring, routine service-related agreements such as testing or maintenance
contracts, environmental assessments paid by developers, contract agreements for legal service, and
Enterprise Fund and Internal Service Fund capital projects.
Detailed descriptions of the proposed projects are attached as exhibits to this report to allow the
Finance Committee the opportunity to review and raise questions before commencement of any
work on the proposed project. Once Council approves the scope of work of a project, staff will not
materially change the scope unless it returns to Council for approval.
RESOURCE IMPACT
Approval of this recommendation will have no fiscal impact to the City. Funding for the consultant
contracts of these projects is included in the 2007-09 budget.
