HomeMy WebLinkAboutCD Contract Planning Services; M-Groupciry ofWWMO:� Agenda Item No: 3.c Meeting Date: October 3, 2016 SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT Department: Community Development Prepared by: City Manager Approval: Raffi Boloyan, Planning Manager (RB) SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to execute Agreement for Professional Services with M -Group to Provide Contract Planner Staffing Services to fill a vacancy during the recruitment process. (Term of Agreement: up to 7 months, with a total budget amount not to exceed $105,000) RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution. BACKGROUND: The current budget authorizes staffing in the Current Planning Division of the Community Development Department to include seven (7) funded positions, including: one (1) Planning Manager (split time in managing Current Planning and Code Enforcement Divisions), one (1) Senior Planner, (3) Assistant/Associate Planners, one (1) Planning Technician and one (1) Administrative Assistant. The Division has recently experienced the loss of a Senior Planner who left the City for a position with another community. Therefore, the Division is short the Senior Planner position. As a temporary measure, one of the Associate Planners has been promoted to Interim Senior Planner, as a trial, and during this trial period and upcoming recruitment process for the vacancy, it is necessary to seek outside professional planning assistance for the day-to-day functions of the Current Planning Division in order to keep up with the heavy workload. ANALYSIS: From time to time, the City enlists the aid of contract planners to supplement the existing in- house staff. Typically, consultants are placed under contract to process specific planning applications and/or to work on special projects when the workload of the Current Planning Division demands additional support. In this instance, however, the staffing need is much broader. Assistance is needed to supplement in-house staff in conducting the day-to-day activities of the Division, including: processing planning project applications, reviewing building permits, working the public counter, meeting with potential applicants, processing requests for Planning entitlements, attendance at Design Review Board and Planning Commission meetings, and other general duties performed by all professional planners within the Division. The current workload in the Division is already challenging and the loss of the Senior Planner further impacts the Division's ability to process all the tasks expected of the Division in a timely and thorough manner. Therefore, the services of Metropolitan Planning Group (M -Group) have been solicited to assist the Division during the recruitment for the vacant position. M -Group has an existing relationship with the City, as they provide contract services for long range planning services, and recently completed the 10 year update to the General Plan 2020 and City's Housing Element update in 2015. M -Group has now agreed to assign an Associate/Senior-level Planner to the Current Planning Division during the on-going recruitment for the vacant position. The cost for the individual assigned to the City is $125/hour. It is anticipated that interim staffing will be needed for a period not to exceed 7 months (through the FOR CITY CLERK ONLY File No.: 4-3-623 Council Meeting: 10/03/2016 Disposition: Resolution 14200 SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 2 conclusion of the pending recruitment). The total budget for the agreement, if approved, would be up to $105,000, for 7 months of contract staffing (at 4 days/week). Specifically, M -Group has offered the services of Alicia Giudice, to serve as the contract Senior Planner. Ms. Giudice has a great deal of familiarity with San Rafael and Marin County as a whole. She previously worked for the City of San Rafael in the late 1990's as a full time staff planner and later served as a contract planner for the City in the mid 2000's (during two stints). In addition, she has also performed contract work for the County of Marin these past couple of years. M -Group has offered the services of Ms. Giudice who is a Senior Planner, at a rate that is in more in line with an Associate Planner's fully burdened hourly rate, resulting in a great value for the City. Having providing such an experienced person, particularly with experience and knowledge of San Rafael, at a lower rate than the industry standards for a Senior Planner, is a significant benefit to the City. It will allow a planner with knowledge of the community and experience in the intricacies of San Rafael and Marin County to step into the role and function immediately, with minimal training and ramp up time. FISCAL IMPACT: The Agreement for Professional Planning Services will be supported by funds appropriated in the adopted fiscal year 2016-2017 Community Development general fund budget. Salary savings from the vacant position will cover the charges by M -Group. The contract Planner will also be assigned projects subject to cost recovery; therefore, a portion of the cost will be also be covered by charges against these projects, fees for which are paid by the project applicants. Should the City fill the permanent position before 7 months, the contract with M -Group will be terminated at that time. OPTIONS: The following options may be considered by the City Council: 1. Authorize the City manager to execute an Agreement for Professional Planning Services with Metropolitan Planning Group (M -Group); or 2. Delay the execution of the Agreement for Professional Services, and provide direction to staff. ACTION REQUIRED: It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution. ATTACHMENTS: 1.

My understanding from our conversation is that the City's immediate need is for a Senior Planner on a part time to full time basis for approximately six months to help the City meet demand while recruiting for a permanent staff member. As we have discussed, M -Group Senior Planner Alicia Giudice is an ideal candidate for the assignment. Alicia has more than 17 years of experience in the planning field, including both private and public sector assignments and in a variety of jurisdictions in Sonoma and Marin counties. As you will see from Alicia's resume she has a broad range of experience, brings local planning knowledge of the North Bay, and is proficient in the broad range of skills essential to a senior planner. Alicia has previously worked in San Rafael so will be equipped to hit the ground running and provide assistance to the Planning Division immediately. Alicia is available to begin staffing for San Rafael two days per week starting on September 13th and increasing to four days per week by the first week of October. Alicia is available to commit to the six month duration as discussed. Additional flexibility in hours per week and contract duration are negotiable to best meet San Rafael's staffing needs. Based on M - Group's continued working relationship with the City we are offering a reduced hourly rate of $125 per hour for this assignment. I will look for contract documents and insurance certificate needs from you at your earliest convenience. Please let me know if you need anything additional from me to move forward with the necessary contract.
