Committee approves agenda package and adds procurement documentation requirement for engineering awards
Summary
The committee approved agenda items 1–14, including bridge design, as‑needed engineering rosters and park IGAs, then voted to require procurement to provide an explanation of how the contract ceilings for items 2–6 were set before full board consideration.
The Wayne County Committee on Public Services approved the agenda package that included contract awards, intergovernmental agreements and amendments. The committee took two recorded steps of note:
1) The committee initially voted to approve Items 1 through 12 on the agenda and addenda Items 13 and 14 (a multi‑item package of engineering contracts, park intergovernmental agreements, a Syncar consulting amendment, a cooperative contract amendment and the Gibraltar IGA).
2) Following public comment about a traffic signal request and additional questions about how procurement set contract ceilings for Items 2–6, the committee voted to reconsider and require procurement provide a written explanation and supporting materials (scoring and rationale) about the issuance and ceiling assignments for the engineering rosters. The documentation must be received by the committee chair and members before the items are moved to the full board agenda.
Roll call on the package showed the commissioners recorded on the roll responding in the affirmative; the committee announced the motion carried and later carried the motion to conditionally advance those items pending procurement documentation.
CLOSING: The committee approved the package and added an express requirement that procurement deliver the requested materials for the engineering rosters (items 2–6) prior to the full board vote.
