Adopt a Resolution authorizing the President of the Board of Supervisors to execute a First Amendment to the Agreement with The Phillips Group for inspection services as required by the California Building Code for the construction of the San Mateo County Youth Services Center, increasing the not-to-exceed fee by $232,400, from $78,000 to $310,400 and extending the term of the contract from January 6, 2005 through December 31, 2006.

VISION ALIGNMENT:

The construction of the San Mateo County Youth Services Center keeps the commitment of "Ensure basic health and safety for all" and goal number eight: "Help vulnerable people--the aged, disabled, mentally ill, at-risk youth and others--achieve a better quality of life". This project contributes to the commitment and goal by consolidating youth services in one location in a new state-of-the-art facility to benefit youth, families, staff, and community.

 
 

FISCAL IMPACT:

The project budget is $148,203,000. This project is funded by the sale of lease revenue bonds.
