File Number: 17-353 available in the FY 2016-17 Budget for Third Party Plan Check consultants. Analysis In order to retain services from third party plan check consultants, a Request for Proposals (RFP) was issued February 12, 2016. The responses were evaluated based on the following criteria: qualifications and understanding of the RFP, experience of the firm, staffing and resources. Staff entered into contracts with TRB+Associates, and 4LEAF for outside plan check services and AHG Architectural Services (AHG) for staffing, on an as-needed basis. The contract with AHG has been exhausted and a new two-year agreement from July 1, 2017 to June 30, 2019 for continued assistance with plan check staffing is recommended. The Agreement with AGH is for $65,000 annually, not-to-exceed $130,000.
