Discussion:
Joseph 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 arena and
provided on -call plan check services for the Public Works Department. It is
anticipated that, because of his expertise and experience, Mr. Gaugush will also
play a significant role in reviewing the Westin Timeshares project.
Due to the remaining construction activity in Section 29 and the complex nature
of the Westin Timeshares project, Mr. Gaugush's continued services are
required.
Mr. Gaugush appears on the 2008 Consultants Master List approved by City
Council December 13, 2007 and staff believes that his proposed rate is
reasonable and appropriate. The support that Mr. Gaugush is able to provide will
