Commission ratifies hydrology consultant agreement for Pipe Valley review
Summary
Commissioners ratified a previously signed agreement with hydrology consultant Andy Sedan to provide a preliminary hydrology review and comments for the Pipe Valley water matter; staff said the $3,000 retainer is an initial deposit and the consultant will bill as work proceeds.
Beaver County commissioners ratified an agreement with hydrology consultant Andy Sedan to prepare a preliminary review and comment memorandum related to the Pipe Valley hydrology matters.
Staff explained the contract is a ratification of a signed agreement: the document establishes an initial retainer or deposit (discussed in meeting as $3,000) and describes that the consultant will bill for time and provide a preliminary review and brief comment memorandum. Staff told the commission the consultant said the work would not approach the full retainer amount in typical cases; the agreement was characterized as a retainer/deposit and time-and-materials arrangement.
A motion to ratify the signature on the agreement was entertained, seconded, and passed by voice vote. County staff said they will proceed with the contract and invoice process and that the consultant has already submitted initial materials for the county’s review.
