2 COUNTY PLANNER BRENNAN DISCUSSED WITH THE BOARD CONTRACT PRE- PARED BY ADLEY ASSOCIATES FOR PREPARATION OF THE PREAPPLICATION FOR THE 1978/79 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM. HE NOTED THAT THEY ORIGINALLY DISCUSSED A FEE OF $2,700:1 BUT THE FIGURE SET OUT..IN THE CONTRACT IS $2,000. CHAIRMAN WODTKE ASKED IF THIS IS THE STANDARD CONTRACT WE HAVE HAD WITH THEM IN PREVIOUS YEARS, MR. BRENNAN STATED THAT IT 'IS A STANDARD CONTRACT, BUT NOT A DUPLICATE BECAUSE THE SITUATION IS DIFFERENT THIS YEAR, HE SAW NOTHING UNUSUAL IN THE CONTRACT AND FELT THERE IS NO COMMITMENT BE- YOND THE $2,000, ALTHOUGH THEY DO SAY WHAT THEIR FEES WOULD BE IF WE GO TO THE FULL APPLICATION. CHAIRMAN WODTKE POINTED OUT THAT ON PAGE 13 THE CONTRACT SAYS "IF INVITED BY DHUD TO SUBMIT A FULL APPLICATION, THE COUNTY SHALL PAY THE CONSULTANT," WHICH HE FEELS WOULD COMMIT US TO THE WHOLE THING, COUNTY PLANNER BRENNAN DID NOT FEEL THAT IS WHAT WAS INTENDED AND THAT IF WE HAVE A NEW PLANNER BY THEN, HE COULD DO THE WORK. ADMINISTRATOR KENNINGS SUGGESTED THE WORDING BE CHANGED TO READ "IF INVITED BY INDIAN RIVER COUNTY," BUT THE CHAIRMAN FELT THIS MIGHT AFFECT THEIR $2,000 FEE. IN FURTHER DISCUSSION, THE BOARD AGREED THEY WOULD LIKE TO KEEP THE PREPARING OF THE FULL APPLICATION OPTIONAL AND FELT THIS POINT SHOULD BE CLEARED UP. i ATTORNEY COLLINS SUGGESTED CHANGING THE WORDING TO "THE COUNTY AT ITS OPTION," AND COMMISSIONER LOY NOTED THAT WORDING WOULD HAVE TO BE CHANGED ON PAGE1 AND POSSIBLY OTHER PLACES THROUGHOUT THE CONTRACT ALSO. ON MOTION BY COMMISSIONER SCHMUCKER, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER DEESON, THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE CONTRACT WITH ADLEY ASSOCI- ATES, INC. FOR PLANNING SERVICES IN RE THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM SUBJECT TO THE CHANGES AS DISCUSSED AND AUTHORIZED THE CHAIR- MAN'S SIGNATURE. 24 BCGK^ PAA 4clio
