MINUTES On motion by Mrs. Kaywood, seconded by Mr. Roth, the minutes
for the regular meetings held March 8 and 15, 1977, were approved.
MOTION CARRIED.
FINANCIAL DEMANDS AGAINST THE ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY in the
amount of $112,1 24.75, in accordance with the 1976 -77 Budget, were
approved.
AUTHORIZATION FOR PAYMENT OF CONSULTING SERVICES - WILBUR.SMITH AND
ASSO Mr. reported his findings on the overrun of
$4.,892.84 incurred on a contract with Wilbur Smith and Associates,
Inc. wherein maximum fee was stipulated at $35,500.00 for consulting
traffic analysis services. He recommended that payment of that over-
run be authorized in that he felt the contractor and Agency Staff at
that time did perform in good faith and the additional services were
received.
In reply to questions by Mr. Kott, Mr. Priest further noted that the
additional expenditures were authorized by the Agency Director at
that time, who had the authority to authorize such work under the
contract, and was not aware that the maximum contract amount had been
exceeded; and that the additional services were needed and performed
in a quality and satisfactory manner. Mr. Kott indicated that he
felt the contractor should be bound by the contract and should have
obtained the authority to charge more for additional services.

ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY - March 22, 1977- 1:00 P.M.
Following clarification by Mr. Priest as to the effect of the staff
re- direction policy on this overrun, Mr. Seymour commented that it
would indicate there was some confusion in the department during
that time and as a result, an oversight did occur on behalf of the
contractor as well as Agency staff. He felt that if the contract
had been brought before the agency for an amendment, there would
have been no problem with approval. Since the work has been perform-
ed satisfactorily, the City is benefiting from and utilizing such
information and the additional cost is reasonable, he believed pay-
ment should be approved.
Mr. Seymour, thereupon, moved to authorize payment of $4,892.84 to
Wilbur Smith and Associates for consulting traffic analysis services.
Mr. Thom seconded the motion. Mr. Kott voted "No ". MOTION CARRIED.
ADJOURNMENT There being no further business before the Anaheim
Redevelopment Agency, Mrs. Kaywood moved to adjourn. Mr. Roth
seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
ADJOURNED: 1:10 p.m.
