REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
SUBMITTED TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBMITTED BY: Oliver Chi, City Manager

title
Approve and authorize execution of a contract amendment to Professional Services Contracts with AESCO, Inc., Leighton Consulting, Inc., and Twining, Inc., for On-Call Material Testing and Engineering Services

Public Works staff estimates that material testing and engineering services needs for FY 2019/20 will total $600,000. At this level of expenditures for the three (3) existing professional service contracts, usage for these budgeted services will be depleted within a few months. Therefore, staff is seeking increases to the not-to-exceed amounts set forth in the contracts.
Recommended Action:
