HomeMy WebLinkAbout04 - CC-4 - Emergency Purchase for Professional Insp - 12/6/2016CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: DECEMBER 6, 2016 ITEM NUMBER: CC -4
SUBJECT: EMERGENCY PURCHASE FOR PROFESSIONAL INSPECTION SERVICES TO
PROVIDE AS -NEEDED STAFF SUPPORT FOR COMMERCIAL INSPECTIONS
DATE: NOVEMBER 9, 2016
FROM: BUILDING DIVISION/DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT
PRESENTATION BY: JAY TREVINO, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND DEVELOPMENT
SERVICES DIRECTOR/CONSULTANT
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: RANDY BUCK, CHIEF OF INSPECTIONS
(714) 754-527318
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Receive and File.
BACKGROUND:
The current City Commercial Inspector is on leave and there is no other City staff with
commercial building code knowledge. The department contacted the five current consultants
under contract with the City, Scott Fazekas and Associates, Melad and Associates, CSG and
Associates, Interwest and Bureau Veritas and Associates, and at this time they have no one
available to meet the City's need.
Currently, there is one vacancy in the Building Division of the Development Services
Department. The vacancy is for a full-time Senior Building Inspector, this position is responsible
for and considered a vital position to commercial building inspections.
ANALYSIS:
It is estimated that recruitment of this position will take six to nine months to complete. In the
interim, in order to move forward with commercial building inspections, there is an immediate
need to retain the services of a certified, Commercial Building Inspector.
The scope of work requires that the consultant provide a qualified Commercial Building Inspector
to conduct inspection services throughout various construction projects. This includes, but is not
limited to, permit counter and plan check staffing.
Pursuant to the City's Purchasing & Policy Manual, Article 17 Emergency Purchasing, Section 17-
100 Emergencies, #1 an Emergency Purchase has been processed to retain the services of The
Code Group, Inc. dba VCA Code (Attachment 1) in an amount not to exceed $128,000 to assist
the Building Division with the staff shortage. The attached (attachment 2) Emergency Justification
Form explains the emergency purchase in more detail.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED:
The alternative to the proposed City Council action would be to cancel the contract for the
Commercial Building Inspection Services. Due to the volume of work and the large number of
construction projects currently being handled by the Building Division, construction projects will be
interrupted and essentially "shutting down" ongoing construction.
FISCAL REVIEW:
Funding for these services came from citywide salary savings from the vacant positions.
LEGAL REVIEW:
A legal review is not required for the proposed action.
CONCLUSION:
It is recommended that the City Council receive and file the report in accordance with the adopted
Purchasing Procedures.
