Questions and Answers February 16, 2024
Q: Does the County expect planning services to be performed by the consultant on-site at County offices, or can work be performed remotely?
Q: Our question pertains to the nature of the work in terms of whether the review and support work can be primarily conducted remotely and whether attendance at public hearings is virtual or in person? In other words, approximately how frequently should we anticipate being in person at the County offices.
Q: Item #6 in the RFP describes working closely with the Planning Commission and the Land Use and Building Department Staff. What is the County’s expectation regarding in-person vs. remote work in providing on-call planning services? Is the County open to a fully remote consultant for on-call planning services?
A: The majority of the day-to-day work of the consultant can be performed remotely. We expect the consultant to attend in person for hearings before the Planning Commission or Board of County Commissioners. We would prefer the consultant to attend meetings and workshops of the Planning Commission, as well as BOCC meetings where applications will be discussed, in person whenever possible. We also expect the consultant will occasionally need to be present in person for site visits or meetings with applicants that cannot be done remotely. In a typical month this would mean 3 days in the County, occasionally 4.
Q: Does the County need a Floodplain Manager on-site, or can work be performed remotely?
The Floodplain Manager work can be performed remotely.
