RECOMMENDATION:

General Fund in the amount of$50,577.00.
2. Authorize Amendment No. 4 to City Secretary Contract No. 42877 with Accela, Inc., in the amount of

i
3. Authorize sublicense Agreements with various third party inspection firms and authorize the Planning

i
DISCUSSION:
i
The contract recommended by this Mayor and Council Communication is for the purchase of 20 additional i
licenses to the existing Mobile Office module of the Automation permitting system. These licenses will be
leased back to existing Third Party Firms resulting in no end cost to the City after reimbursement.
Providing these licenses will give third party inspection services firms a faster, more reliable method for !
connecting to the City's permitting system that will help to facilitate the expeditious collection of inspection
data, ultimately giving customers more timely information.
To fund this purchase, Staff is requesting a Fiscal Year 2015 appropriation in the amount of$50,577.00 to
cover these costs until the City is reimbursed in full within 30 days of execution of the sublicense
agreement by the third party inspection services firms. The third party inspection services firms will
continue to reimburse the City annually for the maintenance costs of these additional 20 licenses.
PRICE ANALYSIS —Accela Inc., has proposed a cost of$50,577.00 to include all 20 licenses and the first
year of maintenance. Staff has reviewed this price and determined it to be fair and reasonable for the I
product proposed.
RENEWAL OPTIONS —The maintenance may be renewed for up to two additional one-year terms by
mutual Agreement of the parties. This action does not require specific City Council approval provided that l

L
the City Council has appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the renewal term.
The pricing for maintenance for each year will increase by five percent per year from the current
maintenance charge of$8,796. This amount will be reimbursed to the City each year by the third party i
inspection services firms.
MM/BE Office -A waiver of the goal of M/WBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the
Planning and Development Department and approved by the M/WBE Office because the purchase of
goods and services is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible.
This contract will include ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
FISCAL INFORMATION /CERTIFICATION:
I

funds will be available as appropriated, of the General Fund. The Planning and Development Department
