WALL City Clerk THOMAS P. GENOVESE City Treasurer TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Background: MOORPARK MEMORANDUM The Honorable City Council Thomas P. Genovese, Deputy City Manager December 10, 1987 ITEM // STEVEN KUENY City Manager CHERYL J. KANE City Attorney PATRICK RICHARDS, A.I.C.P. Director of Community Development R. DENNIS DELZEIT City Engineer JOHN V. GILLESPIE Chief of Police Agreement for Inspection /Administration Services for Peach Hill Park On October 7, 1987, the City Council approved the contract for inspection /administration services with R. W. Graham and Associates for Peach Hill Park. The contract, which, as indicated in the attached October 1, 1987 memorandum, was a proposal for inspection /administration services not to exceed 150 hours at a rate of $30.00 per hour. During the review process of this proposal, the City Council approved the Agreement for one -half of the proposal or 75 hours and requested additional information regarding the inspection services for Peach Hill. As a result of the City Council's request, the Staff Report dated October 16, 1987 was prepared for review by the City Council. As indicated in this attached report, it was anticipated that additional hours of inspection /administration may be necessary. The primary purpose for the need of additional hours was due to assistance the contractor was performing in the area of administration of the project. This work included the analysis of changes /additions /deletions to the contract, as well as any problems that arose during the construction phases of the project. This additional work, which is more related to administration than inspection, was necessitated due to the vacancy in the Director of Community Services position. As you know, the City has filled the vacancy in the Director of Community Services position, effective December 16, 1987. However, it is felt that the project will be more efficiently concluded if the new Director does not attempt to assume responsibility to 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, California 93021 (805) 529 -6864 December 11, 1987 Page 2 administer the contract. The present arrangement with the Deputy City Manager and R. W. Graham and Associates will more effectively close out the project and allow the Director of Community Services to begin on other projects, including the Senior Citizens Center, 69 -acre park/ conceptual design pedestrian bridge for the Community park and downtown park site. Staff, however, realizing there is a need for continued inspection /administration for such purposes as plant material evaluation, germination and specification follow through, is requesting approval of contract for services of 60 hours at a rate of $30. per hour, or $1,800. All hours will be charged on an "as needed" basis only and, therefore, hours not utilized will not be charged to the City. As previously indicated, the services necessitated for this contract are due to vacancy in the Director of Community Services position. Because of the substantial savings in the General Fund (funding mechanism for this position) due to this vacancy and the fact that contract contingency has been fully utilized, it is proposed that this contract be funded by the approximate $9,000. in savings in the General Fund due to the vacancy. This proposal would require a fund transfer to the Park Development Fund (05) at the conclusion of the contract. This transfer is proposed for two (2) primary purposes: 1. To relieve impact to the Park Development Fund (05) since the contract is necessitated by the vacancy in a General Fund funded position. 2. To accurately reflect those costs that will be associated and budgeted for the project, i.e. the Director of Community Services position is not reflected in the funding for the project. Summary. The current contract proposal with R. W. Graham and Associates for consideration by the City Council is for not to exceed 60 hours at $30. per hour or $1,800. The contract is necessitated because of the prior vacancy in the Director of Community Services position and is, therefore, recommended to be funded by the General Fund by use of a Fund Transfer. Recommended Action: 1. Authorize Mayor to execute the Agreement for Services with R. W. Graham and Associates for not to exceed 60 hours at $30. per hour. 2. Authorize a transfer from the General Fund (01) to the Par k Development Fund (05) for the amount of the contract at th conclusion of the contract. 1 `' e °f f' C�,v 04 Ot ! /,c, N1 � /98 8y
