CSG CONSULTANT - Laserfiche WebLink

MEMORANDUM Date: May 7, 2026 To: Susan Hsieh, Finance Director From: Michael Stella, City Engineer Subject: Justification for CSG Consultants This memo serves as a justification for selecting CSG Consultants as part of the on-call civil engineering services Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) solicitation. Staff advertised a request for SOQs in December 2025. Fourteen SOQs from respondent firms were reviewed with six invited for interviews with staff. Staff will be recommending to the City Council Professional Services Agreements with four of the consultants based on the firms’ qualifications, interview performances, and responses to inquiries of provided references. The Council will consider this item as part of their June 2, 2026, agenda. CSG is one of the four selected consultants. The agreements will be valid from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2029. Staff vacancies in the Public Works Department have created an immediate need for consultant support in advance of July 1. Staff have therefore negotiated a short-term agreement with CSG that will begin upon agreement execution and terminate on June 30, 2026. After this date, CSG’s services will be governed by the Professional Services Agreement commencing on July 1 as described above. The short-term agreement contains the same terms as the subsequent longer term agreement. No additional funding allocation is needed to approve the short-term agreement with CSG. Funding for the agreement is available from salary savings associated with the current vacancies. Costs will ultimately be recovered from fees paid by developers. Specific account coding from the adopted Operating budget will be assigned when an individual task authorization is issued. The not-to-exceed budget within the short-term agreement is $92,000.
