Commissioners approve renewal and amendments for water and public‑works engineering services
Summary
The board approved an amendment with Brown and Caldwell to continue water engineering services and renewed a five‑year master services agreement with Kinley Horn for public‑works engineering; both items passed after short presentations and unanimous votes.
Lake County commissioners voted on March 17 to approve two contract actions for county engineering services.
Bryce Ulrich, Water and Natural Resources Director (introduced earlier on the agenda), presented an amendment to the county’s professional services agreement with Brown and Caldwell, saying the firm has provided water‑resources engineering support since 2024. Commissioner motion and second were recorded and the board approved the amendment.
Public Works Director Michael Erwin presented a separate item to renew a master services agreement with Kinley Horn for bridge and public‑works engineering over the next five years. Erwin said the firm has been responsive on bridge work and other county projects. Commissioners moved and seconded the renewal and the motion carried.
Why it matters: the actions keep engineering capacity in place for ongoing water‑resources projects and for public‑works capital work including bridge projects and road maintenance. County staff described these as continuity actions to avoid gaps in technical oversight.
What’s next: Staff will finalize contract documents and continue project work; the items were approved as part of the meeting’s agenda.
