SUMMARY STATEMENT:
In preparation for the City Planner being out for parental leave, and the extremely high volume of current
planning work, the attached contract with Kushlan and Associates is for professional services for interim
staff planning services for 15-20 hours per week during the City Planner’s absence. This will primarily
include development reviews and maintaining timely correspondence between the City and applicants,
engineers and other developer consultants. CED staff will be responsible for other duties of the City Planner.
Proposals for interim city planner services were provided to the CED Director from Jacobs, Logan Simpson
and Kushlan and Associates.
The City has been recently working with Diane Kushlan from Kushlan and Associates on code updates, so
she is already familiar with code requirements, our staff and lives in McCall and Boise. This proposal was
also the most cost effective for the City with the lowest billing rate. The contract is from February 12-
August 24, but the majority of the work will occur in the next 3 months as we try to keep up with inquiries,
applications and reviews.
The attached agreement has been reviewed by the City Attorney.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the Professional Services Agreement for Interim Staff Planning Services – Kushlan and Associates
and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
