MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Jessica Sandifer, Community Services Manager
DATE: 07/20/2022 Regular Meeting
SUBJECT: Consider Amendment No. 1 to Agreement with Linda Demmers Library
Consultant for Additional Schematic Design Services
BACKGROUND
In December 2017, the City Council awarded an Agreement to Linda Demmers Library
Consultant for services related to space planning and design for the new Moorpark City
Library.
DISCUSSION
The original project duration was intended to be concluded in 2020. However, the global
pandemic, efforts related to the Civic Center Master Plan, and the switch to a different
architectural team, have significantly delayed the project and added additional scope to
Ms. Demmers Agreement. The switch to the new architectural team added a second
schematic design phase to the scope of work. Staff is recommending amending the
Agreement to include funds for the additional schematic design phase.
The original contract’s not-to-exceed (NTE) amount was $50,500. The cost for the added
schematic design phase is $5,340, which would increase the NTE to $55,840. Staff
believes this is an appropriate fee for the added scope and is recommending approval of
the amendment.
FISCAL IMPACT
There are sufficient funds in the Fiscal Year 2022/23 budget to fund these additional
services. No budget amendment is needed and the projected fund balance is unchanged.
This contract is funded out of Capital Projects Fund 3001 (City Hall Improvement), which
has a total appropriation of $2.3 million for FY 2022/23. This amount relates to planning
and design costs for the new Library. As this fund has limited revenue sources, the FY
2022/23 adopted budget projects a FY 2022/23 ending year deficit fund balance of

$(1.3) million. It is anticipated that the deficit fund balance incurred as a result of the
Library expenses will be addressed with transfers from appropriate surplus reserves.
COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE
This action is consistent with City Council Goal 3, Objective 3.11: “Complete Construction
Plans for the City’s New Library.”
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Approve Amendment No. 1 with Linda Demmers Library Consultant, and authorize the
City Manager to sign the Agreement, subject to final language approval of the City
Manager.
