ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Ginn, the Board unanimously approved Amendment <br />No. One to the Small County Outreach Program Agreement, as <br />recommended by staff. <br />AMENDMENT IS ON FILE IN THE <br />OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD <br />11.I.2. SELECTION OF PROFESSIONAL LAND SURVEY FIRMS FOR <br />THE ANNUAL SURVEYING AND MAPPING SERVICES <br />CONTRACT - RFO #5085 - BURDETTE & ASSOCIATES, INC., <br />CARTER ASSOCIATES, INC., CREECH ENGINEERING, <br />KIMLEY-HORN & ASSOCIATES, INC., MASTELLER, <br />MOLER AND REED, INC., AND MORGAN EKLUND, INC., <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Neuberger, SECONDED <br />by Commissioner Lowther, for discussion, to approved staff's <br />recommendation. <br />Under discussion, Commissioner Ginn questioned why we were going out of the <br />County when we have five in -county bidders. <br />County Engineer Chris Kafer said Creech Engineering from Melbourne has a specialty <br />the others do not perform called blue -booking for GPS monuments, a system our County uses. <br />In response to Commissioner Neuberger's question, County Surveyor Michael <br />O'Brien defined blue booking as a form of Geodetic process surveying (G.P.S). The data is <br />recorded by the National Geodetic Society which houses the data, updates and puts it on the <br />Internet. <br />Commissioner Neuberger found it hard to believe that something that is available on <br />the Internet is not available to all survey companies. <br />County Surveyor O'Brien clarified that a certain software is required and most <br />companies have not obtained it since it is a high-end form of surveying and there has not been a <br />strong demand. <br />SEPTEMBER 2, 2003 23 <br />
