Summary

Council approved Resolution 807 to amend the on‑call civil engineering and planning contract with SCJ Alliance, extending the term to complete in‑progress projects (including Comprehensive Plan and middle‑housing code updates) and maintaining a $100,000 per‑year cap.

The City of Ruston voted unanimously on April 1 to approve Resolution 807, a first amendment to the on‑call consultant contract with SCJ Alliance. The original contract expired Dec. 31, 2024 while several projects remained underway; the amendment extends the contract term and retains a maximum compensation of $100,000 per calendar year through the end of 2025.

City staff and the mayor explained SCJ Alliance has been providing engineering and planning services — including support for the Comprehensive Plan update and middle housing code compliance — and that additional time was needed to complete in‑progress work. Councilmember Hedrick moved to approve the resolution; Councilmember Syler seconded and the motion passed 4-0.
