BERRYMAN & HENIGAR BUILDING AND SAFETY SERVICES CONTRACT RENEWED WITH CITY OF LAGUNA NIGUEL

SANTA ANA, CA, Jan. 23, 2002 -- Berryman & Henigar's contract to provide building and safety staffing to the Community Development Department of the City of Laguna Niguel, CA. has been renewed for an additional five years. Scott Kvandal, president of Berryman & Henigar, made the announcement.

Laguna Niguel, population 61,900, is located in Orange County, CA. According to Ray Schuller, CBO, Berryman & Henigar senior vice president, the firm is providing three full-time inspectors, one full-time permit counter technician, one full-time plan check engineer, one full-time grading engineer, and one part-time building official.

Smaller municipalities generally don't have the budget to staff inspectors, plan check engineers and part-time building officials," Schuller said. "It's more cost-effective for Community Development Departments to utilize a company like ours to service all of their building and safety staffing needs."

Schuller added that over the past six years, Berryman & Henigar has provided the City with building and grading plan check, public counter and inspection services. In addition to providing excellent customer service and public counter coverage, the firm consistently maintains the desired response times for building plan checks and reacts to building inspections within 24 hours of a request.

"The firm will continue to serve the City with the same stellar level of service for the next five years," Schuller said.
