The document is a legislative item for a resolution directing the County Mayor to negotiate and award Contract No. EVN0016781, Disaster Debris Removal Monitoring Services, to Thompson Consulting Services, LLC. The initial recommendation was Tetra Tech, Inc., but an amendment was made to select Thompson Consulting Services, LLC due to a cost savings of nearly $1 million.
