BACKGROUND
October 19. 1992
October 6, 1993
Noverr.ber 8. 1993
Ci.ty Council initiated revision of the Palo
Alto Comprehensive Plan, including creation
of a Comprehensive Plan Citizens Advisory
Committee {CPAC), approval of a work program,
schedule and budget of $507,000 to cover
costs associated with revising the
Comprehensive Plan.
City Council endo~sed, as amended. the
Comprehensive Plan ~community Visions, Ocals
and Issues" document prepared by the
Comprehensive Plan Citizens Advisory
Committee (CPAC) during Phase I of the
Comprehensive Plan update.
City Council expanded the adopted
Comprehensive Plan work program to include
preparation of COffirrillnity Character/Design and
Governance Elements; $185,000 of additional
funding to cover costs associated with such
Elements, and extension of the work schedule
by three months.
Upon completion of Phase I of the COr.'lprehensive plan, staff
initiated selection of consultants to prepare the technical
I :~
-" , -
-.--~-"~"---~----
background reports and EIR in accordance with the approved work
program and budget.
A requeEit for proposals (RF'Pj was ,sent to seven fi rms on November
23~ 1993. Responses to the RF~s were received f=om four of the
seven. firms. One fi.r-m did not respond dtOE! to the "extremely
tight II budget.
A six mewber consultant ~el~ction co~~ittee was formed to review
the responses to the RFP and hold interviews. The: committee
included Will BecketL and Sandy Eakins, the CPAC Co-chairs, and
8ern Beecham, representing the planning Commission on the CPAC.
City staff on the committee included Nancy Lytle, Chief Planning
Official; Doris Maez. Environmental Protection Coordinator; and
Sarah Cheney~ Senior Pla~~er.
Oral rnterviews were held on December 15, 1993. Aft.er the
intervi~ws, the committee reccmmended the firm of Brady anj
AEaociates, Inc. be awarded the contra.ct for the r~quired
services, subject to a follow-up interview with Brady and
Associates' proposed Project Manager~ who was ill ac the time of
the interview~ The follow-up ~nterview waR held on December 20,
1.993, and the interview cammittt:.:: agreed to recommend that the
Ci ty retain Brady and Associates fo .... · this work.
Discussicn
Brady and Associates, Inc. is a firm of Planners and Landscape
Architects experienced in preparing both ComprehensiYe Pla...j.s and
BIRs [or Comprehensive Plans. They have experience working with
citizen committee base:d processe6 and have worked in Palo Alto in
the past.
The firm Brady and Associates wae favored over other firms for
the following reasons:
1) They prepared the most well written~ comprehensible and
complete response to the RFP;
2) They projected the most a,stute grasp of the nature of the
project a.~d the sensitivities of the Community;
3) They presented an approach and style considered compatible
with the established Citizens committee;
4) Their proposal included elements not specified in the RFP.
but considered desirable and advantageous to the Comprehen
sive Plan (Summary of Existing Conditions and Policy Consis
tency Matrix prepared early for CPP.C use during PhaBe II);
1/20/93
Page .2
5) The substantial involvement of the firm's principal would be
provided; and
6) They could accomplish the desired tasks within the
identified budge'C and time frame.
No budg-et ordinarlce: amendment is required for the tecr..nical
consulting services to be provided in this contract. Ho-wever, a
budget ordinance amendment ..... ill be need>:!d to cover the
reproduction costs of the EIR.
The cost of services orovided in the attached contract in the
amQunt cf $95,150 is consistent with the budgec for t~ese
Comprehensive Plan Revision tasks approved by the Council on
October ~9, 1992. However, the four firms responding to the RFP
each expressed Borne ccncerns over the limited amount budgeted for
thi~ work. All of the firms excluded the l-equired printing of
the ErR documents from their proposals. As a result printing
coata of the EIR will have to be absorbed by the City.
Printi.ng of :"he draft and final EIRs is expected to cost about.
$15, DOD. The Comprehensive Plan budget fOl: reproduction costs is
insufficient to cover this additional cost. Remaining portions
of tbe Comprehensive Plan budget are already allocated for other
specific technical or professional consclting services. This
issue and several other potential additional Comprehensive Plan
expenses will be included for council consideration in the 1994-
95 budget.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve and authorize the
Mayor to execute the attached agreement for conEHlltant services
with Brady and As9ocia~es, Inc. for preparation of Geotechnical,
Noige~ and ~r Quality Technical Background Reports and
prepa:t"ation of a Master Program Environmental Impact Report for
the update ~f the Comprehensive Plan.
