Report Title: Amendment to Consulting Services Agreement with Mead & Hunt, Inc., for On-Call Airport Engineering, Design and Architectural Services
☒Recommendation of the County Administrator ☐ Recommendation of Board Committee
RECOMMENDATIONS:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Director of Airports, or designee, to execute an amendment to the November 1, 2020, On-Call Consulting Services Agreement between the County and Mead & Hunt, Inc., to extend the contract from June 30, 2026, to December 31, 2026. (100% Airport Enterprise Fund)
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no additional financial impact as projects are already in progress and are being paid by the Airport Enterprise Fund.
BACKGROUND:
In November of 2020, the County and Mead & Hunt, Inc. entered into a five-year On-Call Consulting Services Agreement (CSA) for airport related engineering, design, and architectural services. The contract is being amended because Airports management has assigned Task Orders under the CSA where the consultant will need additional time to complete. The most significant and important project that Mead & Hunt is nearing completion on is the design of the pilot-controlled lighting upgrade at Buchanan Field. Airports management recommends approval of this action in order to finish the remaining tasks by the fall of this year.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the CSA extension is not approved, the Airports division will not be able to complete projects that are currently in progress under assigned Task Orders.
