the Budget Office , and the Planning Division . Incorporated within the contract is the scope of services that was approved by the Board in February at the time the RFP was finalized . Although the order of these tasks was revised during contract negotiations at the request of CityScape . the main revision in the sequence of tasks involves moving consensus building workshops to an earlier date , and delaying to a later date completion of a detailed inventory and ensineerinE analysis . The resulting sequence of consultant tasks under the proposed contract is as follows : I . A . Prepare problems and opportunity report : to be completed by Jule 30 . 2001 . I . B . Facilitate discussion meetings to develop consensus on desired outcomes and goals for wireless services and facilities : to be completed by September 14 , 2001 . 2 . Prepare and present suggested language for interim telecommunications tower ordinance : to be completed by September 28 , 2001 . 3 . Develop , present , and obtain approval of a telecommunications facilities ordinance that provides for creating the wireless master plan : to be completed by November 30 . 2001 . 4 . Provide engineering services ( inventory , analvsis , estimating current and future demand ) : to be completed by December 31 . 2001 . 5 . Develop and obtain approval of a wireless master plan , provide suggested language for final LDR revisions : to be completed by May 30, 2002 . After discussing this sequence with the consultant. staff was satisfied that the sequence will work well in developing a consensus on desired outcomes early in the process . An early consensus will allow for development of an "interim tower ordinance " that can be adopted by the Board prior to the end of an extended moratorium on new tower applications . The later date for completion of the inventory and engineering analysis accommodates the length of time needed to complete those tasks . In fact, CityScape has already conducted preliminary inventory work and will perform inventory_ and engineering analysis work throughout the planning process . In staff' s opinion , the draft contract meets county requirements and addresses all necessary planning , engineering, and legal consulting tasks at a reasonable price . The contract price includes engyineering (491 hours ) , legal ( 106 hours) , and administration work ( 91 hours ) at a blended rate of 570 . 50 per hour. RECOMMENDATION : Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the attached contract with CitvScape Siting and Management. Inc . and authorize the Chairman to execute the contract and am related documents . JUNE 199 2001 yy -7 1 0 1 - 87 -
