City of Huntington Beach File #: 18-363 MEETING DATE: 10/1/2018 REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION SUBMITTED TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members SUBMITTED BY: Fred A. Wilson, City Manager PREPARED BY: Ursula Luna -Reynosa, Director of Community Development Subject: Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute Professional Services Contracts for As Needed Building Plan Review Services with CSG Consultants, Inc., in the amount of $550,000; and, West Coast Code Consultants, Inc., in the amount of $200,000; and, approve an increase in the Community Development Department's Professional Services listing Authority by $500,000 Statement of Issue: Transmitted for City Council's consideration is a request to enter into a Professional Services Contract with CSG Consultants, Inc. and West Coast Code Consultants, Inc. to provide plan review services. Financial Impact: Both contracts are for a three (3) year term. The contract with CSG Consultants, Inc. is for $550,000 and the contract with West Coast Code Consultants, Inc. is for $200,000 for a total of $750,000 over three years. Year one will commence during FY18/19 and $250,000 is budgeted and available as part of the FY18/19 Community Development approved budget in business unit 10060501. Year two will commence during FY19/20 and $230,000 will be funded from FY19/20 Community Development proposed budget and projected salary savings of $20,000. Year three will commence during FY20/21 and $250,000 will be funded from the FY20/21 proposed budget and salary savings. Recommended Action: A) Approve the increase in the Community Development Department's professional services listing authority by $500,000 for plan check services to ensure compliance with Administrative Regulation Number 228, Section 71;_and — B) Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a three (3) Year "Profession Services Contract between the City of Huntington Beach and CSG Consultants, Inc. for Buildi g Plan Review Services" in the amount of Five Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($550,000), as p epared City of Huntington Beach —Page-1-of-3 Printed on 9/26/2018 347 PovvereC by Leg(starw File #: 18-363 MEETING DATE: 10/1/2018 and approved by the City Attorney; and, F Approveand authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a three (3) Year "Professional vices Contract between the City of Huntington Beach and West Coast Code Consultants, Inc. for' ding Plan Review Services" in the amount of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000), as prepared and approved by the City Attorney. Alternative Action(s): 1. Deny the contracts and direct staff accordingly. Analysis: Applicants who desire to construct projects within the City must submit plans for review to ensure compliance with the California State Building Code (the "CBO"). Applicants pay fees for this service and expect reasonable turnaround times. The City currently only has one in-house plan checker who is not a licensed engineer. This staffing level is not sufficient to respond to the amount of activity in a timely manner. At one time, the City had three in-house plan checkers, one of which was a licensed structural engineer. Development activity has been at historically high levels in recent years, but economic forecasts seem to suggest that a slowdown may be eminent. Supplementing with professional services provided by engineering consultants allows the City to be nimble in the event of a decreased demand for services. On September 8, 2015, the City approved a three (3) year, five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) professional services contract with CSG Consultants, Inc. for Building Plan Review Services. Subsequently, that contract was amended one time to increase the limit of the contract by $340,000, and has now expired. It is necessary to enter into a new agreement in order to provide building plan check services. Consultant Selection Process Utilizing City procurement procedures, Staff solicited proposals for building plan check services. Twelve (12) bid responses were received. Proposals were then evaluated and ranked by three (3) staff members within the Community Development and Fire Departments. Of the 12 consultant proposals received, staff plans to award agreements to two firms based on the experience and qualifications of those firms. CSG Consultants, Inc. has supplied building plan review services to the City over the last eight years, is well respected in the industry, and has a proven track record of providing exceptional service for the City. West Coast Code Consultants, Inc. will be a second source for Building Plan Review Services as they are priced competitively and are respected in the industry. Staff recommends the City Council approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute: 1) a professional services contract with CSG Consultants, Inc. in the amount of $550,000; and, 2) a professional services contract with West Coast Code Consultants, Inc. in the amount of $200,000.
