Discussion:
On December 21, 2006 the City entered into a contract with Joseph Gaugush for
supplemental engineering support as well as on -call plan check services. This
contract was in an original amount not to exceed $25,000.00. An additional
$25,000.00 was approved in May 2007.
Mr. Gaugush's primary engineering support service has been to oversee the
administration of the Section 29 Assessment District 2004-02 (Section 29). In
addition to these duties, he has assisted in the land development area and
provided on -call plan check services for the Public Works Department. With his

expertise Mr. Gaugush is also anticipated to play a significant role in reviewing
the Desert Willow Hotel project.
Due to the complex nature of the Assessment District Section 29 and the Desert
Willow Project, Mr. Gaugush's services are still required.
Mr. Gaugush appears on the 2007 Consultants Master List approved by City
Council December 14, 2006 and staff believes that his proposed rate is
reasonable and appropriate. The support that Mr. Gaugush is able to provide will
contribute greatly to the continued smooth operation of the Public Works
Department.
Therefore, staff recommends that City Council, by minute motion, award contract
No. C2684o to Joseph S. Gaugush, for professional services related to on -
call plan check services and supplemental engineering support in an amount not
to exceed $50,000.00, and authorize the Mayor to execute the same.
