RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and
Clerk of the Council to execute a contract with Sapphos Environmental,
Inc. to assist with historic resources consulting services in an amount
not to exceed $90,000.
DISCUSSION
AS a Certified Local Government with the State Office of Historic
Preservation, the City has agreed to participate with the ongoing survey
and documentation of historic resources throughout the city. Further,
the Historic Resources Commission has identified as one of its objectives
the need to continue documenting and maintaining records for properties
eligible for listing on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties.
The City has been working with Sapphos Environmental, Inc. since January
2006 to comprehensively research and document historic structures.
An agreement with Sapphos Environmental is recommended due to the firm's
unique experience as to Santa Ana's historic resources, and its excellent
track record of historic resource consulting. Tasks included in the
scope of work include conducting windshield surveys, preparation of
historic resource templates to document individual resources, performing
field survey and research, and attending meetings of the Historic
Resources Commission and other staff meetings as required.
The recommended contract amount would be for an amount not to exceed
$90,000.
