STAFFREPORT
DATE: August 22, 1996
ITEM: Consultant Selection Discussion
BACKGROUND:
It was decided at the July 18, 1996, Historic Preservation Meeting to table the selection of the survey
consultant until after the grant awards were announced. On August 9, 1996, the State Historic
Preservation Commission announced that La Quinta was a recipient of one of the grants. Now that the City
knows it has the grant money, a consultant can be selected and the project can begin in October according
to schedule.
The HPC directed staff to call the listed references of consultant, Knox Mellon and Associates. The
responses from the references were all positive.
The Consultant Selection Committee has forwarded a recommendation to the Historic Preservation
Commission for the selection of Knox Mellon and Associates to conduct the survey. Once a candidate is
selected by the HPC, a recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council. The next available Council
meeting date is September 17, 1996.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommends the selection of Knox Mellon and Associates.

Each year the Historic Preservation Commissioners and support staff must attend at least one CLG

preservationists have been contacted to speak at the workshop with topics to center around the "nuts and
bolts" of historic preservation practice and procedures.
