Board approves OHM Advisors contract to provide temporary planning and zoning services
Summary
The board authorized OHM Advisors to provide temporary planning and zoning director and assistant planner services at a cost not to exceed $86,512 to cover a staff deployment and a recent resignation; the county estimated a net departmental cost of $35,702.
County administration asked the board to approve a modified proposal from OHM Advisors to provide two temporary planning and zoning staffers while the county fills a vacant planning director position and an assistant planner is deployed. Administration described the proposal as a cost not to exceed $86,512, with the county saving wages and benefits that reduce the net cost to the department to approximately $35,702. OHM staff would be on-site one to two days per week, with the remainder of the work performed virtually.
The board moved, seconded and approved the contract authorization and instructed administration to sign necessary documents. Commissioners asked whether the contract triggered an RFP threshold and were told it was an extension of existing work and did not require an RFP; staff said the temporary team would begin before the deployment to ensure continuity of services.
