Pleasant Hill Municipal Code Art. III Professional Services

Each professional services contract shall: (1) be in writing, (2) be signed by an employee having the authority to sign (See PHMC § 5.10.050); (3) include the nature and scope of services, total amount, and time for performance; (4) include appropriate insurance and indemnification provisions; and (5) be approved as to form by the city attorney. However, a department director may enter into a simpler agreement, on a form prepared by the city attorney, if the agreement has a value of $10,000 or less.

A contractor engaged in service on city property shall hold the city harmless, and maintain property damage, general liability and workers' compensation insurance in the amounts and form determined by the city attorney.

Soliciting quotes, estimates or requests for proposals (RFP) for a professional service contract is advisable, depending on the circumstances, but is not required.
