DATE: November 14, 2016
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
THRU: Jill R. Ingram, City Manager
FROM: Jim Basham, Interim Director of Public Works
SUBJECT` APPROVE A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
AGREEMENT WITH TRANSTECH ENGINEERS, INC.
FOR PUBLIC WORKS INSPECTOR AND SUPPORT
SERVICES
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 6699 approving and authorizing the
City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement for Public Works
Inspector and Support Services with TRANSTECH Engineers, Inc. in the amount
of$28,000.
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:
The City continuously has capital improvement projects in construction and
issues general, construction permits. The City manages construction projects
with a public works inspector (PW inspector) that is present at the various
construction sites. The responsibilities of the PW inspector are to perform
construction management duties, construction inspections and quality assurance
on public works and development projects related to general improvements to
public right-of-ways. Additionally, the PW inspector ensures compliance with City
standards, codes, designs and specifications.
This function has been performed through various contracted PW inspectors over
the past'20 years. On April 14, 2014, the City Council approved a contract
amendment with Casulas Inspection Services to renew the contract at an hourly
billing rate of $65 per hour. Subsequently, on October i 30, 2015, Casulas
Inspection Services terminated the contract with the City due to the reduction of
construction projects throughout the City.
Staff requested a,proposal from TRANSTECH Engineers, Inc. (TRANSTECH) for
Public Works Inspector and Support Services. Since 1989, TRANSTECH has
offered engineering, public works, and building services to municipalities. After
reviewing the proposal and interviewing TRANSTECH, staff recommends
Agenda Item L
selecting TRANSTECH to fill the interim PW inspector position on a part-time
basis'. Work was originally authorized by staff as it was not anticipated that their
services would exceed the City Manager's financial authority of $28,000 under
the Charter. However,. with the development of the need to also utilize
TRANSTECH for Building Official and other building division services pending
the hiring of a new Building Official and the City Council's recent approval of a
separate contract for building division services, it was determined that City
Council authorization is needed for this public works inspection agreement as
well because based on the most recent services, TRANSTECH's combined work
exceeds the City Manager's financial authority and future ongoing services will
be needed in both public works and building division services.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
There is no environmental impact related to this item.
LEGAL ANALYSIS:
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved as to form.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This ongoing public works inspection agreement will not require a budget
amendment. Sufficient funds have been allocated for the position through the
Public Works - Capital Projects Fund and engineering inspection deposit
account. This Professional Services Agreement is in the amount not to exceed
$28,000 for public works inspection services at an hourly rate of $125 per hour.
TRANSTECH is paid only for the hours in which work is performed, and not a set
number of hours per week.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 6699 approving and authorizing the
City anager to execute a Professional Services Agreement for Public Works
Ins.ecor and Support Services with TRANSTECH Engineers, Inc. in the amount
of '.28,000.

To Whom It May Concern:
I'm writing to provide a reference for Transtech Engineers, Inc., a firm that I have
worked with in two different jurisdictions. Transtech staff served as the City Engineer
and Chief Building Official in the City of Temple City when I was the Community
Development Director. Transtech staff has in the past and is currently providing similar
services to the City of San Bernardino where I currently serve as Community
Development Director.
In both Temple City and San Bernardino, Transtech staff has been professional,
responsive and flexible in meeting my department's needs. The firrn has proven
themselves to be a great asset to the team and a reliable partner in getting projects
completed. In Temple City, Transtech Engineers served as the resident engineer on the
award winning S21 million Rosemead Boulevard project. Their skills and
professionalism were vital in delivering the project on time and on budget. Based upon
my professional experience, I would highly recommend Transtech Engineers as part of
any city's team.
