The Property serves as the San Mateo County Event Center and is managed by the San Mateo County Exposition and Fair Association. While the Property hosts regularly scheduled events, including the San Mateo County Fair and Makers' Faire, portions of the Property are underutilized and could support further development.
On August 16, 2016, the County executed an Agreement with ebernsconsulting, LLC ("Contractor") for services in connection with the potential development of a hotel on the Property.

As part of the scope of work, Contractor will continue to assist in the evaluation of submitted proposals for the project, developing transaction-related documents, and assisting with the processing of the project.
The agreement was initially for a term through December 30, 2017 and for an amount not to exceed $90,000. The County and Contractor now desire to amend the Agreement to extend the term through December 31, 2019 and to increase the maximum amount payable by $50,000, to an amount not to exceed $140,000.
