Brentwood city staff reviewed several consent‑agenda items at the commission briefing, covering an audit engagement, a state grant amendment for cadet training, contract time extensions for public‑works projects, equipment replacements for traffic detection cameras and a multi‑year router/camera contract for public safety vehicles.

The city presented a proposed one‑year engagement with Grama for the city audit services for 2025 at a cost of $65,600 for the city portion; that total includes a $3,800 single‑audit fee tied to grant spending above $750,000. Staff said the firm was brought back after prior delays by another auditor and that the city will publicly procure audit services again after the one‑year engagement.

City staff also reviewed an amendment to a state agreement that helps cover cadet recruitment and academy costs. The amendment increases the state share recorded in the draft grant amendment from $200,000 to $300,000 and raises the state’s liable amount by $100,000, according to staff remarks.

Several construction items were described as cleanup or time‑extension requests. Staff said an alteration to the Allens Green OSRD development plan is required to record an easement for a driveway that was installed without prior city approval; staff characterized that as a cleanup item and said a plan and easement will come forward for formal approval. Change orders proposed an extension for the Ardenwood Scales Pump Station project (fabrication and a delayed transfer switch) moving the completion date from March 17 to Aug. 22, and a 60‑day extension for the Corondale waterline project because of unanticipated rock and hydrant elevation work (new substantial completion date estimated as May 12, 2025). Engineers reportedly reviewed and agreed the requested extensions were reasonable.

Staff said two traffic signal detection camera systems were destroyed by lightning on April 5 and are no longer serviceable as repair parts are unavailable; replacement of the full detection systems for two intersections was estimated at $57,000 and an insurance claim will be filed. City staff also presented a proposed five‑year contract to equip fire apparatus with Cradlepoint routers and Axon cameras; the five‑year total cost presented was $247,098, and staff noted the purchase would align fire units with police department systems already on Axon.

A design contract to move Split Log Growth Phase 3A from preliminary design into full design with Sullivan Engineering was described as $253,545 for design only; staff said right‑of‑way design work done in preliminary design lets right‑of‑way acquisition proceed more quickly. Staff said they will bring formal motions and ordinances through the consent agenda for approval at a future meeting.

Staff and commissioners discussed monitoring and maintenance issues for detection systems and signs, and noted reimbursement or coverage by insurance where applicable. No formal roll‑call votes were recorded in the briefing transcript for these items.
