Assistant City Manager Sullivan stated they could assist. He looked at the different positions that would fill these contracts. The recruitment process and retention for these technical positions are somewhat difficult.

For these contracts you would need three to four civil engineers; one to two structural engineers; one traffic engineer; a geo-technical engineer; two or three engineering techs, a senior plan checker. All positions totaling $1.7 million dollars in hired staff.

He stated that with that figure, by using contract services they have the availability to fluctuate as City needs and demands arise.

He believes employees should be hired to work in the City and be compensated for working in the City. He is uncertain if all individuals are needed, but effort s should be made to perform the plan checks in-house. Developers and contractors’ primary complaint from the City is the span of time projects take to complete in the Public Works department.

He asked if it is feasible to hire in-house staff for a portion of this work in the next budget process . He understands if the specialized work is outsourced.

He expressed his concerns with the contract amount. He stated $600,000 is excessive.
