Commission plans August RFP and multiyear contract language to retain survey continuity

Marion Historic Preservation Commission · July 17, 2025

Summary

To preserve consistency across annual reconnaissance work, commissioners asked staff to structure a procurement that allows multi-year engagement dependent on funding and to aim for an early-August RFP posting with selection following an end-of-August/early-September deadline.

Commission members agreed they would like procurement language that allows a single consultant or firm to perform sequential reconnaissance surveys so outputs remain consistent across years. Derek suggested structuring the RFP to enable multiyear contracting dependent on year-to-year funding.

Joe said the previous contract was about $16,000 and that Kirk fulfilled that work; members discussed issuing a new RFP quickly and building multiyear or on-call language into the scope. They discussed an early-August posting with a late-August/early-September application deadline and identified the need to consult county procurement (Clay) and county finance (Matt Levitt) about multi-year structure and whether the $15,000 can be carried into 2026 if needed.
