PHASE I.I HISTORIC INVENTORY --CON-SULTANT SELECTION <br />This item was presented by Planning Director Marvin Collins for <br />the purpose of reconsidering the selection of a consultant to conduct the <br />Phase II Historic inventory. On August 18, 1992.the Board of Commissioners <br />approved the Administration recommendation to employ Dan Pezzoni and Rhonda <br />LaFever to conduct the inventory of historic sites and structures in the <br />remaining unincorporated portions of Orange county. The Board also <br />authorized the Chair to execute a contract, contingent upon staff and <br />attorney review that incorporated the terms of the approved proposal. In <br />their 7/20/92 proposal, Pezzoni and LeFever suggested a team approach which <br />recognized Pezzoni's extensive experience in conducting historic <br />inventories and LaFever's skills. This proposal took into account <br />LaFever's limited experience by requiring extensive supervision by Pezzoni. <br />On August 31, 1992, Catherine Bishir of SHPO called the Planning Director <br />to indicated that Dan Pezzoni had contacted her indicating that he wished <br />to change the proposal. On September 1, 1992, Ms. Bishir sent a copy of <br />the revised proposal to the Planning Director. On the following day, in a <br />telephone conversation, both Ms. Bishir and Mr. Collins concluded that the <br />proposal was no longer acceptable due to the fact that insufficient <br />supervision was to be given,.to Ms. LaFever. On September 3, 1992 both ms. <br />Bishir and the Planning.Director wrote to Pezzoni and LaFever that the <br />proposal was no longer acceptable and that it would be necessary to proceed <br />with interviewing additional candidates. To expedite the consultant <br />selection process, the SHPO suggested that two of the three consultants <br />originally considered for the project be considered again. They included <br />David Bergstone and Scott Brown. In addition, the consultant team of Todd <br />Peck and Jody Carter was also recommended for consideration. The <br />Peck/Carter team has been suggested and extensive efforts were made to <br />schedule a local interview and a copy of the RFP were sent to them. <br />Although very interested in the project, prior commitments and associated <br />travel plans prevented them from responding to either request. Sheets <br />summarizing the consultant proposals were provided in lieu of complete <br />copies. These summaries provided the following information: <br />Consultant/Firm -Experience _ <br />-Performance Notes -Project Schedule <br />-Qualifications -Budget Proposal <br />The consultant(s) must satisfy minimum education and experience <br />requirements to perform identification, evaluation, registration and <br />treatment activities. These requirements are listed in Part V: 36CFR61 of <br />the Federal Register and are included for information purposes. Mr. <br />Collins indicated that Peck/Carter,have presented a proposal.
