Public Works Director RECOMMENDED ACTIONS That the City Council authorize staff to hire the consulting services of Padilla & Associates, Inc., to submit the City of Lodi's Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program Overall Annual Goal for Federal Fiscal Year 2003/04. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The D.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations under 490FR, Part 26, Participation by Disadvantaged Business Enterprises in Department of Transportation Financial Assistance Programs, ensures fair competition for all DOT contracts. The regulations are intended to insure a level playing field on which minority, women, and other disadvantaged small businesses can compete for federally -assisted highway, transit and airport contracts, These regulations require the City of Lodi to submit an Overall Annual Goal that meets the regutations as a condition of using Federal funds. The Overall Annual Goal must be submitted in June 2003 for the Federal fiscal year of October 1, 2003 through September 30, 2004. Padilla & Associates was hired to develop the DBE Program and goals for the last two Federal fiscal years. The consultant will prepare the Overall Annual DBE Goal for Federal fiscal year 2003/04 utilizing 49CFR Part 26 goal -setting methodology, including calculation of the base figure and required analysis', determine the City's race -neutral and race -conscious participation projections and corresponding rationale towards meeting the overall annual goal-, and prepare required submissions to Caltrans. They will also develop the required public notice and compile public facilitation summary for submission to Caltrans. Staff is able to perform some of the required details in submitting the overall annual goal. However, there are tasks, such as the goal -setting methodology, that need to be done by the consultant. There are complex analysis and calculations involved that staff is unable to perform, and there is not local training offered so that staff may be able to handle it in-house. FUNDING'.
