SUBJECT:
Title
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT WITH RSG, INC. TO PROVIDE INTERIM MOBILE HOME RENT REVIEW SERVICES (CITY COUNCIL)
Body
I. SUMMARY
At the December 6, 2016 City Council meeting, Council approved an agreement with Rosenow Spevacek Group, Inc. (RSG) to provide interim Mobile Home Rent Review services in an amount not-to-exceed $75,000.00, through July 31, 2017 (Exhibit No. 1).

As a result, staff is requesting that Council approve an amendment to the agreement with RSG to increase the contract sum by $72,000.00 to a total amount not-to-exceed $147,000.00, through July 31, 2017 (Exhibit No. 2).
