TOPIC: ON-CALL BUILDING PLAN REVIEW AND INSPECTION CONSULTING SERVICES
AGREEMENT
SUBJECT: PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH INTERWEST CONSULTING
GROUP FOR ON-CALL BUILDING PLAN REVIEW AND INSPECTION CONSULTING
SERVICES IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $150,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the City Manager to enter into a Professional Services Agreement with Interwest Consulting
Group for on-call building plan review and inspection consulting services in an amount not to exceed
$150,000.
BACKGROUND:
The building plan review is a critical function of the building permit review process and requires
specialized skills, experience, and certifications. The City, over the past decade, has effectively utilized
specialized consulting service providers to provide for plan review and building division staff
augmentation services. In order to meet the ebbs and flows of permit and development activity, three
separate consulting firms have been utilized to provide services given varying firm capacities to address
City needs. Interwest Consulting Group is one of three consulting firms providing on-call building plan
review and inspection consulting services for the City’s building permit review process and support of
staff augmentation for building counter services and building inspection services. As San Rafael
continues to receive increased development applications and more complex construction applications
(multi-family housing / mixed use commercial), the department continues to need assistance from
specialized consulting firms to provide building permit plan check, counter services and inspection
services.
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 2
ANALYSIS:
Interwest Consulting Group has consistently demonstrated that they have staff with the ability and
flexibility to deliver high-quality services. The firm has been instrumental in moving development
applications through the building permit review process and providing staff augmentation support
services during peak construction activity periods and supporting the City during permitting and
construction staffing shortages.
Staff is seeking to extend the on-call building plan review and inspection consulting services from
Interwest Consulting Group through December 2025 with a total contract not to exceed $150,000. This
will cover existing commitments for services, as well as allow staff to request assistance from the firm as
needed for staffing augmentation and filling for short term staffing gaps should they materialize. The CED
Assistant Director/ Chief Building Official will review and approve each individual project, scope of work,
and cost estimates, as needed. Copies of the draft Professional Services Agreement, along with
associated cost estimates, are attached.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The total amount of the not-to-exceed agreement is $150,000. City initiated projects would be funded
through available appropriations within the Community and Economic Development Department’s
professional services budget. Services for building permit review would be paid for through developer
permit fees.
OPTIONS:
The City Council has the following options to consider on this matter:
1.Authorize the City Manager to enter into the agreement;
2.Authorize the City Manager to enter into the agreement with modifications;
3.Direct staff to return with more information; or
4.Take no action.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Authorize the City Manager to enter into a Professional Services Agreement with Interwest Consulting
Group for on-call building plan review and inspection consulting services in an amount not to exceed
$150,000.

A. Except as otherwise provided in subparagraph B of this section, CONSULTANT shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify, release, defend with counsel approved by CITY

its officers, agents, employees and volunteers (collectively, the "City Indemnitees"), from and

limited to attorney's fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation, (collectively
"CLAIMS"), arising out of CONSULTANT'S performance of its obligations or conduct of its
operations under this Agreement. The CONSULTANT's obligations apply regardless of whether

misconduct of the City Indemnitees, the CONSULTANT's indemnification obligation shall be
reduced in proportion to the City Indemnitees' share of liability for the active negligence or willful

CONSULTANT's obligation to provide a defense to the City Indemnitees, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, incurred in defense of such claims in Section 10(A), CONSULTANT shall have
the right, in reasonable consultation with the CITY, to control the defense and settlement of any
action for which indemnification is sought, provided that it shall not enter into any settlement that
requires an admission of wrongdoing by any City Indemnitee without that City Indemnitee's
approval. CONSULTANT's obligations under this Agreement are contingent upon timely receipt
of notice of the claim for which indemnification is sought, such that defense of the claim is not
prejudiced, and the reasonable assistance of the City Indemnitees in connection with the defense
of the claim.
B. Where the services to be provided by CONSULTANT under this Agreement are design
professional services to be performed by a design professional as that term is defined under Civil
Code Section 2782.8, then, to the extent permitted by law including without limitation, Civil Code
sections 2782, 2782.6 and 2782.8, CONSULTANT shall indemnify and hold harmless the CITY
and its officers, officials, and employees (collectively City Indemnitees) from and against
damages, liabilities or costs (including incidental damages, Court costs, reasonable attorney's fees
as may be determined by the Court, litigation expenses and fees of expert witnesses incurred in
connection therewith and costs of investigation) to the extent they are caused by the negligence,
recklessness, or willful misconduct of CONSULTANT, or any subconsultants, or subcontractor
or anyone directly or indirectly employed by them, or anyone for whom they are legally liable
(collectively Liabilities). Such obligation to hold harmless and indemnify any indemnity shall not
apply to the extent that such Liabilities are caused in part by the negligence or willful misconduct
of such City Indemnitee.

to, and shall not in any way be limited by, the insurance obligations contained in this Agreement,
and shall survive the termination or completion of this Agreement for the full period of time
allowed by law.
11. NONDISCRIMINATION.

license, CITY reserves the right to require CONSULTANT to provide professional liability
insurance pursuant to this section.
4. Workers' compensation. If it employs any person, CONSULTANT shall maintain
workers' compensation insurance, as required by the State of California, with statutory limits, and
employer's liability insurance with limits of no less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per
accident for bodily injury or disease. CONSULTANT's workers' compensation insurance shall be
specifically endorsed to waive any right of subrogation against CITY.
B. Other Insurance Requirements. The insurance coverage required of the
CONSULTANT in subparagraph A of this section above shall also meet the following requirements:
1. Except for professional liability insurance or workers' compensation insurance, the
insurance policies shall be specifically endorsed to include the CITY, its officers, agents,
employees, and volunteers, as additional insureds (for both ongoing and completed operations)
under the policies.
2. The additional insured coverage under CONSULTANT's insurance policies shall be
"primary and noncontributory" with respect to any insurance or coverage maintained by CITY
and shall not call upon CITY's insurance or self-insurance coverage for any contribution. The
"primary and noncontributory" coverage in CONSULTANT'S policies shall be at least as broad as
ISO form CG20 0104 13.
IM
3. Except for professional liability insurance or workers' compensation insurance, the
insurance policies shall include, in their text or by endorsement, coverage for contractual liability
and personal injury.
4. By execution of this Agreement, CONSULTANT hereby grants to CITY a waiver of any
right to subrogation which any insurer of CONSULTANT may acquire against CITY by virtue
of the payment of any loss under such insurance. CONSULTANT agrees to obtain any
endorsement that may be necessary to effect this waiver of subrogation, but this provision applies
regardless of whether or not CITY has received a waiver of subrogation endorsement from the
insurer.
5. If the insurance is written on a Claims Made Form, then, following termination of this
Agreement, said insurance coverage shall survive for a period of not less than five years.
6. The insurance policies shall provide for a retroactive date of placement coinciding with
the Effective Date of this Agreement.
7. The limits of insurance required in this Agreement may be satisfied by a combination of
primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be
endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and
noncontributory basis for the benefit of CITY (if agreed to in a written contract or agreement) before
CITY' S own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.
8. It shall be a requirement under this Agreement that any available insurance proceeds broader
than or in excess of the specified minimum insurance coverage requirements and/or limits shall be
available to CITY or any other additional insured party. Furthermore, the requirements for coverage
and limits shall be: (1) the minimum coverage and limits specified in this Agreement; or (2) the broader
coverage and maximum limits of coverage of any insurance policy or proceeds available to the named
insured; whichever is greater. No representation is made that the minimum insurance requirements of this
Agreement are sufficient to cover the obligations of the CONSULTANT under this Agreement.
9. CONSULTANT agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with
the Services, who is brought onto or involved in the performance of the Services by
CONSULTANT, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of CONSULTANT,
except as with respect to limits. CONSULTANT agrees to monitor and review all such coverage
and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the
requirements of this Agreement. CONSUTLANT agrees that upon request by CITY, all
agreements with, and insurance compliance documents provided by, such subcontractors and
others engaged in the performance of Services will be submitted to CITY for review.
10. CONSULTANT agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party
involved in any way with the Services reserves the right to charge CITY or CONSULTANT for
the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this Agreement. Any such provisions are to be
deleted with reference to CITY. It is not the intent of CITY to reimburse any third party for the cost of
complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against CITY for payment of premiums or
other amounts with respect thereto.
KIM
C. Deductibles and SIR's. Any deductibles or self -insured retentions in CONSULTANT's
insurance policies must be declared to and approved by the CITY and shall not reduce the limits of
liability. Policies containing any self -insured retention (SIR) provision shall provide or be endorsed
to provide that the SIR may be satisfied by either the named insured or CITY or other additional
insured parry. At CITY's option, the deductibles or self -insured retentions with respect to CITY
shall be reduced or eliminated to CITY's satisfaction, or CONSULTANT shall procure a bond
guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claims administration, attorney's fees
and defense expenses.
D. Proof of Insurance. CONSULTANT shall provide to the PROJECT MANAGER all of
the following: (1) Certificates of Insurance evidencing the insurance coverage required in this
Agreement; (2) a copy of the policy declaration page and/or endorsement page listing all policy
endorsements for the commercial general liability policy, and (3) excerpts of policy language or
specific endorsements evidencing the other insurance requirements set forth in this Agreement.
CITY reserves the right to obtain a full certified copy of any insurance policy and endorsements from
CONSULTANT. Failure to exercise this right shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise it
later. The insurance shall be approved as to form and sufficiency by the CITY.
