The high value KC Metro bus base electrification projects are causing DCD to exceed our Reid Middleton structural review and BHC plan review and inspection contract amounts. These are both revenue backed by permit fees so there will be no impact to the general fund. REVIEWED BY Trans&Infrastructure Svcs Community Svcs/Safety Finance & Governance Planning & Community Dev.

Meeting Date Prepared by Mayor’s review Council review 6/17/24 NG 5.F. 59 60 City of Tukwila Thomas McLeod, Mayor INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM TO: Planning and Community Development Committee FROM: Nora Gierloff, DCD Director BY: Lee Sipe, Acting Building Official CC: Mayor Thomas McLeod DATE: June 4, 2024 SUBJECT: Permit Review Contract Amendments ISSUE Two contracts for permit review by consultants are nearing their maximum amount and need to be increased in order to prevent building permit issuance delays. BACKGROUND The Building Division uses private consultants to assist with review of development permits. BHC Consulting LLC provides plan review and inspections for larger projects or when the workload is too high for City staff to maintain response timelines. Reid Middleton provides structural review in a more cost-effective manner than the City hiring an in-house engineer. DISCUSSION During the budget process staff estimates the cost needed for these permit services over the next two years and contracts for that dollar amount. We are experiencing higher permit volumes/values than anticipated and so need to increase the contracts in line with the City’s needs. BHC is willing to extend their contract through 2025 at the current rates. Reid Middleton has not developed their 2025 fee schedule, so that will need to be addressed separately before the end of 2024. FINANCIAL IMPACT Staff is proposing to amend the “not to exceed” amount for the two contracts from $150,000 to $300,000 each. Only the amount needed to keep up with review of future permit submittals will be spent. The funds for these services come from the permit fees paid by applicants for plan review and inspections and do not impact the general fund. RECOMMENDATION The Council is being asked to approve these contract amendments and forward these items to the Consent Agenda at the June 17, 2024, Regular Meeting. ATTACHMENTS A.
