Tax Map Maintenance

This master consulting agreement establishes a framework for the Township of Barnegat to obtain engineering‑related services from Remington & Vernick Engineers II, Inc. for the 2024 calendar year. The scope is broad and includes engineering design, land‑use planning, surveying, CAD/GIS mapping, tax‑map production, construction observation, and landscape architecture. Work is performed on a project‑by‑project basis: the consultant submits a detailed proposal for each specific task, and the Township authorizes the work, pays invoices (30‑day net), and retains a limited license to use the deliverables. Key contractual provisions cover monthly invoicing, a 15‑day dispute window, 30‑day payment terms, 1.5 % monthly late‑payment interest, a 10‑day deadline for insurance certificates, and a 10 % administrative surcharge on any sub‑consultant services. The agreement runs from 1 Jan 2024 to 31 Dec 2024 with no automatic renewal. • Provides hourly rates for a wide range of professional staff (e.g., $185/hr for Certified Floodplain Manager, $200/hr for Project Manager). • Allows both time‑and‑materials (hourly) and fixed‑fee billing, with progress‑payment milestones for fixed‑fee projects. • Requires the consultant to maintain $1 M commercial general liability, $2 M aggregate, $2 M professional liability, and $1 M auto coverage, plus certificates within 10 days of the effective date.
