THE CITY OF 1 <br /> CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT <br /> pL£ ASANTON. <br /> July 21, 2009 <br /> Community Development <br /> Building and Safety Division <br /> TITLE: APPROVAL OF PROFESSIONAL CONSULTANT AGREEMENT WITH <br /> TRAINING ESSENTIAL SAFETY SERVICES (T.E.S.S.) TO PROVIDE <br /> FIRE PERMIT PLAN REVIEW SERVICES <br /> SUMMARY <br /> CSG Consultants, Inc. has provided fire plan review services for the City of Pleasanton <br /> for the past nine years. However, CSG Consultants, Inc. no longer has a fire plan <br /> review consultant who is familiar with the City's local fire requirements and no longer <br /> maintains an office in Pleasanton. Therefore, the Building Division is proposing to enter <br /> into a contract with Training Essential Safety Services (T.E.S.S.), a firm that has been <br /> performing fire plan review for the Livermore Pleasanton Fire Department (LPFD) in the <br /> City of Livermore. T.E.S.S. has a proven track record of providing prompt plan review <br /> turnaround times, over the counter fire plan review services, accurate plan reviews, and <br /> professional and friendly customer service. <br /> The proposed Draft Professional Services Agreement (Attachment 1) continues the <br /> same basic percentages of the plan review fees paid to all the consultants. <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> 1. Approve the Draft Professional Services Agreement with T.E.S.S. to provide <br /> necessary California Building and Fire Code plan review and field inspection <br /> services. <br /> 2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the subject Agreement. <br /> FINANCIAL STATEMENT <br /> There will be no fiscal impact on the City. <br />
