ROSEMEAD) OMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
FROM: BILL CROW~`CITY MANAGER
DATE: JULY 23, 2002
RE: APPROVAL OF CONTRACT FOR SERVICES IN CONNECTION
WITH THE COMMISSION'S COMMERCIAL REHABILITATION
PROGRAM WITH WILLDAN ASSOCIATES
In 2001-2002, the Commission approved a Redevelopment Agency-funded
Commercial Rehabilitation program, funded through Redevelopment funds, for
businesses located in Redevelopment Project Areas. The Commission approved
a contract with Willdan Associates to operate the rehabilitation program.
Willdan Associates currently provides commercial and residential rehabilitation
services to the City, funded through Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) funds. Willdan was selected through a competitive proposal process to
provide services in FY 2001-2002. Under the terms of the City agreement, the
Willdan contract is for three years, beginning in FY 2001-2002. Staff proposes to
extend the Commission's contract with Willdan Associates for two (2) additional
years to match the City commitment. This would provide:
• Continuity between programs
• Provide seamless program delivery to businesses between the two (2)
programs, and
• Continue to provide for ease of administrative service delivery.
The Commission has received a proposal from Wilidan Associates to provide
commercial rehabilitation services for the next two (2) fiscal years. Willdan
proposes to provide services with the same personnel and for the same cost in
FY 2002-2003. In FY 2003-2004, Willdan would be eligible for a cost increase
based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI).

Subject: Proposal to Provide Assistance in Administering Redevelopment
Agency Funded Commercial Rehabilitation Program
Dear Mr. Wagner:
Willdan is pleased to submit this letter to continue to provide assistance in administering
your Redevelopment Agency funded Commercial Rehabilitation Program.
Willdan is proposing to provide a Principal Planner to assist you with both commercial
rehabilitation programs. Mr. Patrick Goode, Principal Planner, would be available for up
to six (6) hours per week. His services would be provided on an hourly basis at a rate
of $95.00 per hour. In addition, Mr. Micheal Neal, Community Development Planner,
would be available on an as-needed basis to assist clients. His services would be
provided on an hourly basis at a rate of $70.00 per hour. This rate is fully burdened
(i.e., there are no hidden charges or additional costs) and the City would not be charged
for travel time, but only for time spent working at City Hall.
These rates are unchanged from FY 2001-2002. It is our understanding that the
contract would be for a 2-year period, or until June 30, 2004. Willdan would be eligible
for a rate increase based on CPI for FY 2003-2004. These persons would act under the
supervision of Ms. Lisa A. Baker.
We sincerely appreciate the opportunity to once again offer our professional services to
the City of Rosemead and look forward to a continuation of our working relationship. If
you have any questions, please contact Mr. Albert Warot at (562) 908-6209.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLDAN
