Should CITY be named in any suit, or should any claim be brought against it by suit or otherwise, whether the same be groundless or not, arising out of this Agreement, or its performance, CONSULTANT will defend CITY (at CITY's request and with counsel satisfactory to CITY) and will indemnify CITY for any judgment rendered against it or any sums paid out in settlement or otherwise.

Tait & Associates, Inc.

Page 8 of 13 ends

CONSULTANT as to the details of doing the work or to exercise a measure of control over the work means that CONSULTANT will follow the direction of the CITY as to end results of the work only.

22. AUDIT OF RECORDS. CONSULTANT will maintain full and accurate records with respect to all services and matters covered under this Agreement. CITY will have free access at all reasonable times to such records, and the right to examine and audit the same and to make transcript therefrom, and to inspect all program data, documents, proceedings and activities. CONSULTANT will retain such financial and program service records for at least three (3) years after termination or final payment under this Agreement.

23. INSURANCE.

A. Before commencing performance under this Agreement, and at all other times this Agreement is effective, CONSULTANT will procure and maintain the following types of insurance with coverage limits complying, at a minimum, with the limits set forth below:

Type of Insurance Limits
Commercial general liability: $2,000,000
Professional Liability $1,000,000
Business automobile liability $1,000,000
Workers compensation Statutory requirement
B. Commercial general liability insurance will meet or exceed the requirements of the most recent ISO-CGL Forms. The amount of insurance set forth above will be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. Liability policies will be endorsed to name CITY, its officials, and employees as "additional insureds" under said insurance coverage and to state that such insurance will be deemed "primary" such that any other insurance that may be carried by CITY will be excess thereto. Such insurance will be on an "occurrence," not a "claims made," basis and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to CITY.

C. Professional liability coverage will be on an "occurrence basis" if such coverage is available, or on a "claims made" basis if not available. When coverage is provided on a "claims made basis," CONSULTANT will continue to renew the insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.

D. Automobile coverage will be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 01 06 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto).

E. CONSULTANT will furnish to CITY duly authenticated Certificates of Insurance evidencing maintenance of the insurance required under this Agreement and such other evidence of insurance or copies of policies as may be reasonably required by CITY from time to time. Insurance must be placed with insurers with a current A.M. Best Company Rating equivalent to at least a Rating of "A:VII."
F. Should CONSULTANT, for any reason, fail to obtain and maintain the insurance required by this Agreement, CITY may obtain such coverage at CONSULTANT's expense and deduct the cost of such insurance from payments due to CONSULTANT under this Agreement or terminate pursuant to Section 16.

G. Self -Insured Retention/Deductibles. All policies required by this Agreement must allow CITY, as additional insured, to satisfy the self -insured retention ("SIR") and deductible of the policy in lieu of CONSULTANT (as the named insured) should CONSULTANT fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements. The amount of the SIR or deductible is subject to the approval of the CITY Attorney and the Finance Director. CONSULTANT understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by CONSULTANT as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should CITY pay the SIR or deductible on CITY's behalf upon the CONSULTANT'S failure or refusal to do so in order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional insured under the policy, CITY may include such amounts as damages in any action against CONSULTANT for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by CITY due to the breach.
24 USE OF SUBCONTRACTORS. CONSULTANT must obtain CITY's prior written approval to use any consultants while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval must approve of the proposed consultant and the terms of compensation.

25. INCIDENTAL TASKS. CONSULTANT will meet with CITY monthly to provide the status on the project, which will include a schedule update and a short narrative description of progress during the past month for each major task, a description of the work remaining and a description of the work to be done before the next schedule update.

Stanton On -Call Engineering:

Overlay, Alley Reconstruction, and Cerritos Ave. Widening City of Stanton, CA
TAIT was selected by the City of Stanton to provide roadway and drainage design services on three separate project areas.

TAIT has been on call with the City of Stanton since
2016. See bottom right for additional projects.

The three project areas were:

1. Cerritos Avenue Widening & Drainage
Improvement Project;

2. Palais Alley Reconstruction Project; and

3. Bradford Community and Rutledge
Avenue Rehabilitation Project.

Cerritos avenue widening project required
the widening of Cerritos avenue from
Rose Ave to Flower Street which included
removal and reconstruction of existing
parkway improvements, relocation of
power poles, fire hydrant, water meter,
and roadway signs, construction of
new curb and gutter, curb ramps, and
alley approach, and the relocation
and construction of a new storm drain
catch basin and lateral. The existing
storm drain lateral was discovered to
be extremely shallow which required
special design and consideration for the
relocated condition. TAIT checked the
capacity and flows of the existing inlets
to ensure proposed conditions were not
constrained.

Palais Alley reconstruction required the
full removal of existing AC paved alley
surface and construction of a new PCC
paved alley surface to ultimate flowline.

Design of this alley segment included
checking joins at driveways, design of
alley approaches, and joining of existing
drainage channel/course at the project
limits to ensure storm water flows were
conveyed adequately.

Bradford Community and Rutledge
Avenue Rehabilitation Project included
the grind and overlay of Rutledge Avenue
from Western Avenue to Bradford Street,
as well as the full depth reconstruction of
all internal development streets to repair
severely damaged roadway conditions.

Design of this project segment also
included removal and replacement of
existing curb ramps, adjustment of utilities
to grade, and the replacement of custom
storm drain plate covers for an existing
catch basin in order to provide an ADA
compliant path of travel.

Diamond Bar On -Call Engineering:

Reagan & Peterson Park Parking Lot Expansion Project
City of Diamond Bar, CA
TAIT was hired by the City of Diamond Bar to analyze, design, and provide construction management and inspection services for the expansion of two public park parking lots.

TAIT has been on call with the City of Diamond Bar
since 2018. See bottom right for additional projects.

The design services included topographic
survey, geotechnical investigation, water
quality management design, Los Angeles
County Flood Control District storm drain
permit processing, and the preparation
of detailed PS&E for the construction of
the park improvements. Design analysis
included addition of handicapped
parking stalls, design of optimal cross and
longitudinal grades and the installation of
retaining curbs to optimize the parking stall
configuration.

Careful attention was required while
designing the parking lot expansion
in order to ensure full ADA access is
provided to the park while avoiding
damage or impact to the existing facilities.

Design of low flow and high flow
diversion systems were required in order
to ensure proper drainage for the site.

Due to soft subgrade soils, the design also
included the analysis and coordination of
subgrade stabilization. The final design
included the installation of stabilizing
geogrids under the crushed base layer
which helped provide structural stability
PG. 14
for the pavement structure. Extensive
coordination between the City's public
works and Park Maintenance Division
was required in order to ensure the design
was both in compliance with public works
standards as well as the park division's
ultimate master plan.

During the construction phase, TAIT
coordinated and managed the
construction activities of this contract by
scheduling pre -construction meetings,
reviewing and approving submittals,
and providing full time construction
management and inspection services.

Extensive coordination was required with
the City's contractor in order to ensure
contract compliance for scheduling
and quality of construction. TAIT was
a strong advocate for the City during
the construction phase and was able to
identify field deficiencies observed by the
inspector in order to require the Contractor
to replace any and all non -compliant
items.

4. METHODOLOGY
Federal/State/Local Funded Public works engineering analysis of existing and proposed storm, sewer, and water contracts require careful planning, effective facilities. communication, and precise execution in order to
avoid costly contract change orders during the construction phase. Given the complexity and potential funding sources of these contracts, it is critical that the selected team have a thorough understanding of the design, approval, and
construction processing requirements for each funding
source and, as is the case for federal projects, the
requirements outlined in the Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM).

APPROACH
TAIT is specifically proposing to provide comprehensive civil engineering design services using our 5 step
project management protocol: Understand > Assign >
Plan > Execute > QA/QC.

UNDERSTAND
Upon receipt of an RFP from the City, TAIT will conduct a cursory project review and will research existing conditions (field, environmental, regulatory, and stakeholder -related) to ensure we have a full understanding of the scope. We will also meet with the City's Public Works Director
to discuss the project and understand their specific
needs and objectives.

The potential scope of work under this contract is
anticipated to include local, state, and federally funded design services for the preparation of plans specifications, and estimates for Capital Improvement Projects, including but not limited to street maintenance, street improvements, street widening, grading, erosion control, traffic control, and related improvements. Design services may
also require analysis of CEQA/NEPA requirements,
preparation of design reports for hydrology and pre/
post construction water quality documents (LID/SWPPP/
NOI), review of construction phasing and impact, and the TAIT understands that the City's projects will primarily entail design of resurfacing projects throughout the
City. According to the RFP, the projects also include, but are not limited to, curb, gutter, sidewalk, curb ramps, alleyways, drive aprons, manhole and valve adjustments, intersection cross sections, traffic control plans, signal loop replacement, utility coordination, coordination with other agencies, possible surveying, possible cross gutter, possible bus pad installation, center island installations, decorative lighting and associated electrical equipment.

We anticipate that these types of projects will typically require geotechnical engineering services as well as traffic engineering services. These services will be provided by our sub -consultant partners, GMU and TJW respectively.

ASSIGN
TAIT has in house expertise in public works roadway,
water, sewer, storm drain, surveying, hydrology/
hydraulics, pre -/post construction water quality control, architecture, and minor structural engineering and analysis.

Based on the scope of the project, TAIT's Senior Project Manager will assign a lead Project Manager and/or
Project Engineer to each contract whose background best matches the needs and complexity of the project. Key sub - consultants such as landscaping, geotechnical and traffic engineering team members will then be assigned to the
project at this phase based on the needs of the project.

CITY OF BELLFLOWER • AUGUST 19, 2024 • PG. 16
-102-

PLAN
We will prepare and submit a clear and concise scope
of work, project schedule, and fee proposal that includes all necessary tasks to successfully complete the contract.

Key considerations in the planning phase will include the funding source (local/state/federal) and associated
permitting/documentation requirements, stakeholder
requirements/needs, level of design detail desired
by the City (plan/plan & profile), storm water quality
requirements, coordination and meeting needs, and the
overall scheduling needs.

EXECUTE
Upon issuance of the notice to proceed, TAIT will
implement the project plan with meticulous detail to
ensure that all civil engineering design work is
carried out with exceptional standards of quality and
efficiency. Our assigned project manager will maintain
open communication with the City and will remain
available and responsive to the City's needs through the life of the project.

QA/QC
Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) are
integral to our process. TAIT employs rigorous QA/
QC procedures to review and verify all deliverables.

A QA/QC manager will be assigned to each project
to 1) ensure a quality design is employed, 2) verify
all agencies/disciplines are coordinated 3) check
constructibility through review of PS&E at each submittal, and 4) conduct an informal engineering cost assessment
to ensure compliance with the City's specific project
goals.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
TAIT's approach to project management ensures
coordination with the City's contract officer and a
commitment to the project schedule. We will employ
a structured process to monitor progress, manage
resources, and address issues promptly to keep the
project on track.

The City's Public Works Director/City Engineer will
serve as the dedicated project manager who will act
as the single point of contact and as the contract officer for these services. Additional project oversight will be provided by the city manager. In line with this structure, our client service approach is to know and understand
the client's needs concerning the project, allowing us to assist the client as if we are an extension of their own staff.

CLIENT SERVICE
TAIT will follow a set of protocols established in our
Project Instructions which will include the development of monthly progress reports (including schedule and
budget), meeting attendance and reporting, and a clear
understanding with the Client as to all Action Items that have yet to be completed.

SCHEDULE CONTROL
An integral part of our project management strategy is
schedule control. The Project Manager is responsible for efficiently directing the team and completing projects
within the established budget. However, in cases where
a project design has been delayed at no fault of the City, TAIT Management would reassess assigned personnel
to the project, and review effort completed to make sure design is on point and has not deviated from the agreed upon path. Meetings with project team personnel would
be held to review the project and discuss options to
accelerate design without impacting quality and the
required deliverables. Additional personnel, overtime,
and assignment of more senior level staff would be
options considered by TAIT Management to bring the
project back on schedule at no additional cost to the
City.

RISK MANAGEMENT
The greatest risk for delays in a project is the lack of foresight and understanding of the scope. With our proven work experience, high caliber staffing, and as a result of our 5 step project management protocol, The City can
be assured that our proposals are complete and that our assigned team is fully qualified to design the project. Each proposal to the City will be accompanied with a detailed project schedule that outlines key milestones, permitting needs, plan submittals, agency review periods, and utility coordination/notification dates. TAIT will also stay in close contact with the City during the life of the project in order to ensure the project remains on schedule.

RESOURCES AND CITY ASSISTANCE
TAIT will utilize its extensive resources, including specialized personnel and advanced project management tools, to
deliver these services. We anticipate requiring access to pertinent City information, including as -built plans, design standards, and regulatory guidelines. Regular coordination with City Staff and timely feedback on submittals will be crucial for maintaining the project schedule.

ADDITIONAL SERVICES
TAIT may provide additional services such as landscape
architecture, electrical engineering, stakeholder
engagement, public outreach, and grant application
assistance, to support the City's broader objectives.

PROJECT CONTROLS
TAIT has a proven record in roadway design, storm
water management, environmental compliance design,
regulatory permitting, and project management. Our
expertise allows us to efficiently navigate complex
requirements, keeping projects on schedule and within
budget. TAIT will work with the City to adhere to budget limits while ensuring quality services at the most efficient cost possible. Our history of successfully meeting project budgets on similar projects has fostered lasting relationships and earned us repeated success and referrals.

TAIT implements a cost control program on all of design contracts. We control design costs by segmenting
individual tasks and work items in our proposals, allowing us to track design progress alongside the design budget.

This segmentation helps us identify and address any cost overruns early. Additionally, TAIT utilizes BST, a project management/budget tracking software on all of our
projects that provides daily readings and output of job and task effort. By tracking our progress on a daily and weekly basis, we are able to foresee any work items that may be overrunning and implement corrective measures early in the process.

5. DETAILED SCOPE OF SERVICES - SAMPLE
TAIT takes no exceptions to the City's proposed scope of work discussed in RFP Section 3.0, Design Engineering Services. Based on our past City projects, review of the City's RFP, and the project limits, the following is our proposed scope of work for successfully completing the City's design contract. To simplify the RFP review process, all sub -tasks have been organized and included within the RFP's Section 3.0 Design Engineering Services stated work items.

Task 1) Design Kick-off Meeting
Prior to the meeting, TAIT will coordinate with City staff to obtain existing records to aid in the discussion at the kickoff meeting. Initial design recommendations, observations and proposed field walk design parameters and methodologies will be discussed at the kick-off meeting to ensure the design is processed per the City's requirements. Meetings are assumed to be conducted via Zoom/Microsoft Teams, or similar remote meeting format due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Deliverables: Meeting Agenda & Minutes, Updated Project Schedule Task 2) Records Research & Design Field Walk
Records Research & Compilation
This sub -task includes all hours necessary to conduct online research and to coordinate with City and County staff to obtain existing roadway, right of way and sub -structure records.

Design Field Walk
This sub -task includes all hours necessary for the field review required to observe and document the existing conditions of the pavement, curb and gutter, parkway, curb ramp and all other anticipated work items.

All existing curb ramps will be documented for existing grades, lip condition and gutter conditions and the presence of truncated domes. Ramps that require special attention/detail will be brought to the City's attention to authorize localized pickup surveys at these ramps (see Task A-1). Existing condition photos will be taken of each ramp to aid the City in construction coordination to verify any existing damage to private or public facilities.

Deliverables: Compiled Existing Records (Design Files), Field Notes & Photos, Curb Ramp Documentation Sheets PG. 19

TAIT & ASSOCIATES, INC.

ON -CALL PROFESSIONAL DESIGN SERVICES
Task A-1) Optional Pickup Survey & Mapping
If, upon completion of the design field walk, it is determined that additional detail and elevation based design will be required at a location, upon City approval, TAIT will conduct a localized pickup topographic survey at the given location to detail the existing topographic features and elevations. Temporary benchmark and basis of bearing data will be set in the field to provide necessary control during construction. Survey has been priced by assuming a single day's worth of field survey activities as well as the additional office processing hours. During this day, the field survey team will gather cross sectional information on a maximum of three (3) intersections & parkway information on twelve (12) curb ramps, or similar items.

Although the RFP requested that intersections be cross sectioned, and the answers to RFIs directed to add this work as an optional task, it is assumed that a minimum of two (days) will be needed for that work for the 5 major intersections.

However, during TAIT's preliminary project walkthrough it was also found that many curb ramps are not constructed to ADA standards and may require additional surveying to construct due to adjacent encroaching improvements. Therefore, a minimum of two (2) to a maximum of three (3) days is suggested for pick up surveying. Two (2) days were assumed in the fee proposal.

Deliverables: Topographic Survey Data (.dwg format), Temporary Benchmark & Basis of Bearing Notes Task 3) Base Mapping
Base mapping for this project will include the following items:
• Roadway Base Map (record based)
• Right of Way (GIS based R/W)
• Utility (Record Based Linework)
• Aerial Photograph (Google/Bing Aerial Imagery underlay for reference purposes) All base maps will be prepared in accordance with the City's project needs and will identify the project limits and existing features which will be impacted by the proposed improvements.

Deliverables: 40 Scale Roadway, R/W, Utility, & Bing Maps Aerial Basemap (.dwg) CITY OF BELLFLOWER • AUGUST 19, 2024 • PG. 20

Task 4) Utility Information Requests and Coordination
TAIT will prepare three utility notices as part of this task as described below:

1. 1st Utility Notice: This sub -task includes the hours associated with the initial utility contact research and notices that will be sent out per the RFP requirements. TAIT will compile and track all responses in a utility tracking matrix and will follow up with all non -responsive utilities to ensure responses are received.

2. 2nd Utility Notice: This sub -task includes the hours associated with the preparation and distribution of the 2nd utility notice per RFP requirements.

3. Final Utility Notice: This sub -task includes the hours associated with the preparation and distribution of the 3rd utility notice per RFP requirements.

Over the past years, utility agencies have begun to require that the notices be sent and signed by agency staff in order to avoid processing fees. To expedite the utility review and processing, TAIT will prepare and forward a utility mail merge document to agency staff for printing and signing of the documents. If possible, email notices will be sent to all applicable utilities for quick processing. Utilities without email contact addressed will be notified through US mail.

Deliverables: Utility Information Matrix, Utility Coordination Log & Records, 1st, 2nd & Final Utility Notices Task A-2) Geotechnical Investigation
It is understood that the City will provide pavement treatment methods for this project. However, should the City desire additional testing and investigation, at the City's option, TAIT has obtained the services of GMU Geotechnical (GMU) to provide a geotechnical investigation for this project. The results of a day's worth of corings split between the two and a half blocks of Alondra Boulevard would be presented in a letter report, including a plan showing the locations of the cores, and the thickness of the asphaltic concrete pavement sections at all the core locations. It is also assumed that the client will provide the base map for the core location plan. The report will present the results of the R -value testing as well as pavement design section recommendations. Finally, based on the initial Design Field Walk and GMU's findings, TAIT will review and provide possible cost saving alternatives to the City's preferred rehabilitation method. As an optional task, GMU has also provided TAIT with Deflection Testing and Analysis and Identification of Isolated AC Repairs if the City would like this backup information for Federal Funding assistance.

Deliverables: Geotechnical Investigation Report, Alternate Paving Scenario Sections and Comparison Cost Estimate (considered to be 30% Plans)

CONSULTANT indemnifies and holds CITY harmless from and against any claim, action, damages, costs (including, without limitation, attorney's fees), injuries, or liability, arising out of this Agreement, or its performance, except for such loss or damage arising from CITY's sole negligence or willful misconduct. Should CITY be named in any suit, or should any claim be brought against it by suit or otherwise, whether the same be groundless or not, arising out of this Agreement, or its performance, CONSULTANT will defend CITY (at CITY's request and with counsel satisfactory to CITY) and will indemnify CITY for any judgment rendered against it or any sums paid out in settlement or otherwise.

C. For purposes of this section "CITY" includes CITY's officers, officials, employees, agents, representatives, and certified volunteers.

E. The requirements as to the types and limits of insurance coverage to be maintained by CONSULTANT as required by Section 23, and any approval of said insurance by CITY, are not intended to and will not in any manner limit or qualify the liabilities and obligations otherwise assumed by CONSULTANT pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, to the provisions concerning indemnification.

20. ASSIGNABILITY. This Agreement is for CONSULTANT's professional services.

CONSULTANT's attempts to assign the benefits or burdens of this Agreement without CITY's written approval are prohibited and will be null and void.

21. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. CITY and CONSULTANT agree that CONSULTANT will act as an independent contractor and will have control of all work and the manner in which is it performed.

Agreement File No. 1060

Page 8 of 13 ends

Any provision in this Agreement that may appear to give CITY the right to direct CONSULTANT as to the details of doing the work or to exercise a measure of control over the work means that CONSULTANT will follow the direction of the CITY as to end results of the work only.

22. AUDIT OF RECORDS. CONSULTANT will maintain full and accurate records with respect to all services and matters covered under this Agreement. CITY will have free access at all reasonable times to such records, and the right to examine and audit the same and to make transcript therefrom, and to inspect all program data, documents, proceedings and activities. CONSULTANT will retain such financial and program service records for at least three (3) years after termination or final payment under this Agreement.

23. INSURANCE.

A. Before commencing performance under this Agreement, and at all other times this Agreement is effective, CONSULTANT will procure and maintain the following types of insurance with coverage limits complying, at a minimum, with the limits set forth below:

Type of Insurance Limits
Commercial general liability: $2,000,000
Professional Liability $1,000,000
Business automobile liability $1,000,000
Workers compensation Statutory requirement
B. Commercial general liability insurance will meet or exceed the requirements of the most recent ISO-CGL Forms. The amount of insurance set forth above will be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. Liability policies will be endorsed to name CITY, its officials, and employees as "additional insureds" under said insurance coverage and to state that such insurance will be deemed "primary" such that any other insurance that may be carried by CITY will be excess thereto. Such insurance will be on an "occurrence," not a "claims made," basis and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to CITY.

C. Professional liability coverage will be on an "occurrence basis" if such coverage is available, or on a "claims made" basis if not available. When coverage is provided on a "claims made basis," CONSULTANT will continue to renew the insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents -135-

City of Bellflower
Agreement File No. 1060
W.G. Zimmerman Engineering, Inc.

Page 9 of 13 ends

during the time this Agreement was in effect.

D. Automobile coverage will be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 01 06 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto).

E. CONSULTANT will furnish to CITY duly authenticated Certificates of Insurance evidencing maintenance of the insurance required under this Agreement and such other evidence of insurance or copies of policies as may be reasonably required by CITY from time to time. Insurance must be placed with insurers with a current A.M. Best Company Rating equivalent to at least a Rating of "A:VII."
F. Should CONSULTANT, for any reason, fail to obtain and maintain the insurance required by this Agreement, CITY may obtain such coverage at CONSULTANT's expense and deduct the cost of such insurance from payments due to CONSULTANT under this Agreement or terminate pursuant to Section 16.

G. Self -Insured Retention/Deductibles. All policies required by this Agreement must allow CITY, as additional insured, to satisfy the self -insured retention ("SIR") and deductible of the policy in lieu of CONSULTANT (as the named insured) should CONSULTANT fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements. The amount of the SIR or deductible is subject to the approval of the CITY Attorney and the Finance Director. CONSULTANT understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by CONSULTANT as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should CITY pay the SIR or deductible on CITY's behalf upon the CONSULTANT'S failure or refusal to do so in order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional insured under the policy, CITY may include such amounts as damages in any action against CONSULTANT for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by CITY due to the breach.

24. USE OF SUBCONTRACTORS. CONSULTANT must obtain CITY's prior written approval to use any consultants while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval must approve of the proposed consultant and the terms of compensation.

25. INCIDENTAL TASKS.

1.8 General Approach to Projects
We at W.G. Zimmerman Engineering have developed a standardized process based upon the types of project and funding sources requirements with Federally funded projects being the most stringent.

Our approach first is to work with the City to determine the project needs which includes available base mapping either in electronic format or CADD format, Utility Contacts, Geotechnical Report, and/or Environmental Documents. Based upon the availability of this information and the type of project, we will develop a project Team which may include topographical surveying, geotechnical engineering, environmental services and possible special engineering services such as structural.

We always start a project with a Kick-off meeting with the City and stakeholders to ensure the project parameters, timelines, and expected results followed by a field review. This approach establishes the design criteria and provides an opportunity for input from the project Team.

We then conduct in-depth research of As -built plans, studies and reports, utilities, and adjacent construction projects. The information is used to conduct a detailed field review. Our approach to projects using this method is a benefit to the City by reducing unforeseen conditions.

A unique process we use at the 60% level submittal is to conduct a "plan -in -hand" field review. This allows both the City and WGZE Team to evaluate the plans and look for conflicts and other mitigation measures. This approach does reduce RFI's during construction.

Finally, our approach is always delivering a quality product ahead of schedule meeting the City's needs. Our cost estimates are accurate since we compile recent agency bids and compare quantities and project complexities to unit pricing. Our project detailed Methodology and Approach are provided in Sections 4 and 5.

4 - METHODOLOGY

4.1 General Approach
Our approach to pavement rehabilitation projects is based upon the City's desired results of the project. Depending on the type of funding and available construction programmed funds, we will develop a project specific program to match these parameters.

Our proposed scope of work provided in Section 5 Detailed Scope of Services is based upon our general approach to arterial rehabilitation projects that we have successfully completed within budget and schedule.

The programed type of funding is essential to the project approach. If there is federal or state funding for the project, then the project must follow the Local Assistance Procedure Manual (LAPM) Chapters 3, 12, and 15 to obligate the construction funding and to bid/award the project.

This process is very detailed and includes the environmental documents (LAPM Chapter 6), PS&E Certification and Checklist (Chapter 12). The City is responsible for complying with LAPM Chapter 9 for DBE participation. Finally, the project specifications must include the requirements of Chapter 12 in the specification for federal and state requirements for trainees and apprentice programs.

4.2 Project Approach
From the onset of the project, we take a pro -active approach to the project. This includes compiling as -built plans, reports, previous studies, pavement management data, and utility information.

Depending on the project, we have both Coast Surveying and Labelle Marvin on our team to perform topographic surveys and pavement/geotechnical investigation. After our Kick-off meeting with the City, we will request both of our subconsultants to commence work. This allows the WGZE Team to maintain our proposed project schedule and meet project milestones.

Utility companies will be contacted immediately after our Kick-off meeting to advise them of the City's project and the type of rehabilitation. These contacts will be through emails for documentation purposes.

High risk utilities will be identified at the Kick-off meeting. It is anticipated that for a pavement rehabilitation project these utilities will not be impacted. For federal and state projects, the forms in Chapter 13 and 14 of the LAPM will be completed. The ROW and Utility forms anticipate that no ROW will be acquired, and no utilities will be relocated, allowing Form 13 A to be used.

Unique to WGZE, is that at the 60% submittal, we conduct a "plan in hand" site visit with the City to walk the project. This provides a sanity check on potential items that may impact the design or construction. These field comments are addressed prior to the formal 60% submittal to the City.

5 - DETAILED SCOPE OF WORK

5.1 Approach to Scope of Work
Our focus for our approach to pavement rehabilitation scope of work is provided below. Since our inception 30 years ago, we have solely focused on working for local agencies. Our project experience includes the preparation of project plans for Capital Improvement Programs, ranging from street maintenance projects to street capacity enhancement projects. In addition, we have served as City Engineers and Project Managers for agencies and coordinated the CIP design and construction activities. This experience provides us with a detailed knowledge of City expectations of the final quality product. Our detailed project approach for arterial highway pavement rehabilitation plans for a 6 -lane highway is provided below in the following tasks:

Task No. 1 - Project Administration:

1. Kick-off Meeting - A kick-off meeting will be set within 5 days of the Notice to Proceed. W.G.

Zimmerman Engineering will prepare a meeting agenda, take notes, and prepare Meeting Minutes. Draft Meeting Minutes will be prepared and circulated for comments from all attendees. Once comments are received, then Final Meeting Minutes will be prepared. The Project Team, including our Sub Consultant(s), will attend the Kick-off Meeting. The purpose is to discuss timelines, issues and constraints which may impact the project schedule, request information, set design criteria, set regular Progress Meeting dates, delineate the lines of communications, identification of key stakeholders groups, and set schedule for Public Outreach meetings (if necessary).

2. Project Development Team - A Project Development Team (PDT) will be assembled to address the project. The PDT will include the WGZE Team members, City Staff, Transit Agency staff, Utility companies' representatives, and members from the community as directed by the City. The purpose of the meeting is to provide regular updates on the project, discuss issues and constraints, proposed mitigation and/or solutions, timelines, and project costs.

3. Planned Meetings - Constant communication is key to the success of a project. We will provide constant communication with the City's Project Manager by providing weekly emails with status reports, issues and constraints, proposed solutions, and other issues impacting the project schedule. Planned schedule meetings will be held at the following project milestones:
• 60% Plan in Hand Field Review
• 90% Design Plan review
• 100% Design Plan Review
Our intent for these meetings is to be a "working session" for the project design and plan presentation. The plans and design will be developed based upon the City's criteria and scope of work. These working sessions would be an opportunity to receive immediate input, develop feasible solutions, and update the project plans. This process will expedite the City project approvals and assist in maintaining the project schedule and reduce City Staff Time.

4. Project Schedule - The project schedule will be updated on a monthly basis. It will show the anticipated milestones and work completed to date. The schedule will be provided in advance of our monthly meetings. In addition, we will maintain the project timeline to ensure project delivery on -time. A Construction Schedule will be prepared at the 90% PS&E stage. In addition, we will prepare a detailed schedule of deliverables and coordinate with the City on submittals and reviews/comments from the City to ensure schedule compliance.

5. Progress Meetings - We recognize progress meetings will be required throughout the project to discuss progress, constraints and special issues. Four (4) progress meetings are anticipated throughout the project duration. We will prepare meeting Agendas, Draft and Final Meeting Minutes, and follow-up action items.

6. Quality Product - Since we are a 100% public agency serving company and provide staff augmentation and specific design services to these agencies, we have developed a method to ensure a quality design product. It starts with the project team. We have used Coast Surveying for most of our projects since they provide the most accurate survey and in a 3-D AutoCAD format. The team has been very successful in providing a comprehensive and constructible product.

We have implemented a process that starts at the beginning of the project with a field review using City provided As -built project plans. At the 60% project plan level, we conduct a second field review of the project. These field reviews provide information about the project such as obstacles to adjust the project design, access points for residents and businesses, utility conflicts, traffic signal loop detectors, ADA access ramps and pathways, and trash collection areas.

7. QA/QC Plan - At the Kick-off Meeting, we will provide a copy of our project specific QA/QC plan for the City to review and comment. The plan is based upon our experience on similar projects and serving as Staff Augmentation to agencies.

Deliverables: Draft and Final Meeting Minutes, Communication Log, Monthly Project Schedule Updates, QA/QC Plan, and Information Request Matrix Task No. 2 - Preliminary Design:

1. Data Research - Our team will collect data such as As -built drawings (electronic and hard copies), reports, any available aerial photographs, Utility Maps, Assessor Maps, centerline - ties, and other data available from the City and County of Los Angeles.

Deliverables: Collect and compile Plans, Reports, Maps, Utility Information, and Other Material

2. Topographical Survey - There are two approaches that can be considered; one uses aerial photographs or existing CAD drawings for the base mapping or conduct a topographic survey.

This approach relies on both field measurements and the City's Inspector to make decisions in the field for conditions not readily apparent by visual inspections or a change in the geometry such as new driveways or utility appurtenances. These costs drive up construction value.

The second approach of conducting a topographic survey provides detailed information on the existing geometry, terrain, and visible utilities. We use Coast Surveying to perform this topographic survey.

Horizontally, the survey will be tied to the California State Plane coordinate system (NAD83).

Vertically, the survey will also be based upon the Orange County Benchmark system.

The survey will be developed at 1" = 40' scale and include the following items:
• Sufficient spot elevations and breaklines to accurately develop contours at a 1.0' interval with cross sections surveyed at 50' intervals
• Curbs, gutters, curb ramps, and sidewalk
• Paving types
• Trees and tree wells
• Street furniture
• Relevant driveway ramps and curb cuts
• Grade breaks in the roadway
• Deformations within the roadway
• Visible utilities and associated structures
Coast Surveying shall prepare a survey drawing in accordance with the standard acceptable surveying practices and in accordance with all applicable and appropriate requirements of the State of California.

The final survey drawings will be delivered in AutoCAD version 2018 format that will include an interactive surface model and survey point layers.

All survey work performed by Coast Surveying on this project will be done under the direct supervision of a Professional Surveyor Licensed in the State of California.

3. Project Site Evaluation (Field Review) - Reconnaissance: We will conduct a field review of the project site, including documenting the existing condition with photographs. Our field investigations look at visible pavement structural failures such as alligator cracking, raveling, rutting, and potholes.

Additionally, we will conduct a visual survey of the street for failed concrete such as curb and gutter, cross gutters, and driveway approaches. We will take measurements to confirm concrete widths, and lengths, note damaged areas with ties to BCR's or other hard monuments such as physical street addresses. We will also note subsidence in pavements and curb and gutter for repair. In addition, base plans or As -built plans will be used to verify site conditions including driveways, visible utilities, roadway striping, pavement conditions, sidewalk and curb and gutter conditions, and identify project constraints. The redline plans will be presented to the City to discuss project options and any other concerns. Finally, a Photolog will be prepared for the City.

Concrete Work:

Concrete work includes ADA evaluation and upgrades, sidewalk repair (damaged or uplift greater than 1/2" based upon City criteria), curb and gutter replacement, and cross gutter replacement.

ADA ramps criteria has changed in the last decade. The guidelines have been more stringent with ramp slopes and wings. There are two criteria: Caltrans and APWA. The APWA criteria is a little more flexible in an urban environment.

Sidewalk repairs can be caused by numerous factors with tree roots being the most prevalent. In some cases, root barriers may be installed to reduce future sidewalk damage.

The uplift of 1/2" is only a recommendation. The City may consider tighter tolerances or increase this value.

Curb and gutter damage can be caused by a number of factors including subsidence, uplift, or vehicular damage.

Concrete spandrel damage is caused by a number of factors including water intrusion and vertical loading impacts. The visible signs of failure include cracked spandrel, ponding water, and exposed aggregate.

We have conducted numerous concrete evaluations as part of our local street overlay projects and for city-wide concrete evaluation. Below is an example of one of our forms used to assess the concrete conditions for local roadways.

Field Evaluation: Our team will conduct a field evaluation using collected as -built drawings and other maps to review and document field conditions relating to the conditions for:
roadway and alley asphalt, curb and gutter, sidewalk, cross gutters, and catch basins. When we look at the condition of the asphalt, we consider whether a simple grind and overlay will fix the problem, or if a complete dig out is necessary to bring up the pavement life cycle. The latter is usually necessary if the pavement has failed and shows signs of subsidence, alligator cracking or if potholes exist. Our visual inspection of the curb and gutter and sidewalks includes broken and cracked concrete, subsidence, uplifted or ponding areas.

Catch basins will be inspected from a street level for visible signs of cracking. This includes the catch basin concrete depression. Our team will document issues and constraints during

our field investigations. At critical areas with varying grade differentials, we will collect design survey elevations to prepare plans and match right of way to elevations at property lines.

Field Measurements: For each of the items listed above, we will measure the lengths and widths as well as mark these areas that need to be replaced with chalk -based spray paint.

Then we will redline our plans with locations tied to a visible marker. Finally, we will note tree locations where both public and private trees have damaged the City's infrastructure.

Deliverables: Field Review Matrix, Concrete Spreadsheet Evaluation, Redline Plans, and Preliminary Street Improvement Plans

4. Street Photographs - As part of our Street Field Reviews, we will document our findings with photographs with numbered pictures relating to street segments. A photolog will be presented with our Matrix.

Deliverables: Street Photolog

5. Utility Coordination - Our process includes three utility notifications during the project. The first one is a notice with general plans of project intent with request for information and impacts to utilities. The second one includes 60% plans identifying conflicting utilities and written response of prior rights or identification of ownership and process for raising manholes and valves due to the pavement rehabilitation. The third and final request is at the Final Plan stage to ensure that a plan exists by the impacted utilities for necessary action to reduce the impacts to the City's contractor. All information will be developed into a Utility Matrix along with contacts, dates and responses.

Deliverables: Utility Matrix and Resolution

6. Monument Locations - Monument locations will be located on the project plans by number with a note to protect in place. Any required reset of the monument caused by the contractor shall be at the contractor's expense.

Task No. 3 - Prepare 60% Design Plans:

1. Base Plan and Design Plan Development - We will develop base plans using City as -built plans, topographical survey, and other maps at 1" = 40'. We will verify the accuracy of the developed base plans during our field investigations. Our street design plans will be prepared in three stages; 60%, 90% and Final Plans. At the 60% level design, we will conduct a "Plan in Hand" field review to ensure constructability, accuracy, defined obstacles, and other design features for inclusion in the project plans. We encourage the City to attend our Field Review at this level. At each submittal, we will set plan review meetings with the purpose to highlight project areas of concern and assist the City in the review process. We have used this method on other projects to expedite the process and reduce City Staff workload.

2. Preliminary Signing and Striping Plans - Our plans will be at 1" = 100' and based upon field conditions and approval by the City of recommended revisions based upon our operational review. The signing and Striping plans will be developed using the CA MUTCD and City Standards. These plans will also include traffic signal loop replacements.

3. Detour Plan (CA MUTCD Based) - We will prepare a detour plan following the CA MUTCD. It will consider other elements such as driveway access (businesses and residents), trash pick- up, street sweeping, special events, noise, and inconvenience to the community. The plan will be combined with the construction methodology such as maintaining traffic while the grinding and overlay is being constructed, and reducing traffic on adjacent residential neighbor hoods.

4. Preliminary Cost Estimate - We will prepare preliminary cost estimates in Excel. It will be detailed per bid item with item description, quantity, unit cost per quantity, and total cost per line item. In addition, we will include a Construction Contingency of 25% and 15% for Construction Engineering. W.G. Zimmerman Engineering has a large database of recently bid projects. Our costs estimates are very accurate.

5. Plan Sheets
• Title Sheet
• Typical Sections, Notes, Details
• Street Improvement Plans (Reconstruction)
• Signing and Striping Plan
• Detour Plan
• Detail Sheet
• Cross Sections
Deliverables: Preliminary Project Plans (60%) in both hard and electronic plan sets and Preliminary Cost Estimate
Task No. 4 - 90% Design Plans, Technical Specifications, and Engineer's Estimate

1. Utility Coordination - Utility coordination will occur throughout the project. We have identified our Utility Approach under Utility Coordination. Generally, it is a three -step approach and starts with the initial request for plans and project comment notification, followed by project plans with utility information locations on it to be confirmed by the utility agency and required adjustments such as valve and manhole covers, then the Final Notification of the project plans and potential bid dates.

2. Prepare 90% Plans - Project plans will be revised upon direction from the City and redline comments.

3. Prepare Technical and General Specifications - At the Project Kick-off Meeting, we will request the City's standards boiler plate and technical specifications (City Attorney Approved). We will review based upon our experience in the preparation of recent Bid Documents for similar pavement rehabilitation projects and make recommendations to the City for consideration. Since this is on the critical path, we will start the review process after the project initiation. Should the City Attorney need to approve the Final Bid and Technical Specifications, this will afford the Attorney the time without delaying the project bid schedule.

Our Technical Specifications will be based upon the American Public Works Association (APWA) Standard Specifications and the City's standards.

employees, or representatives, in the performance of this Agreement, except for such loss or damage arising from CITY's sole negligence or willful misconduct.
ii. Indemnification for other Damages. CONSULTANT indemnifies and holds CITY harmless from and against any claim, action, damages, costs (including, without limitation, attorney's fees), injuries, or liability, arising out of this Agreement, or its performance, except for such loss or damage arising from CITY's sole negligence or willful misconduct. Should CITY be named in any suit, or should any claim be brought against it by suit or otherwise, whether the same be groundless or not, arising out of this Agreement, or its performance, CONSULTANT will defend CITY (at CITY's request and with counsel satisfactory to CITY) and will indemnify CITY for any judgment rendered against it or any sums paid out in settlement or otherwise.

C. For purposes of this section "CITY" includes CITY's officers, officials, employees, agents, representatives, and certified volunteers.

D. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California and will survive termination of this Agreement.

E. The requirements as to the types and limits of insurance coverage to be maintained by CONSULTANT as required by Section 23, and any approval of said insurance by CITY, are not intended to and will not in any manner limit or qualify the liabilities and obligations otherwise assumed by CONSULTANT pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, to the provisions concerning indemnification.

CONSULTANT's attempts to assign the benefits or burdens of this Agreement without CITY's written approval are prohibited and will be null and void.

CONSULTANT as to the details of doing the work or to exercise a measure of control over the work means that CONSULTANT will follow the direction of the CITY as to end results of the work only.

22. AUDIT OF RECORDS. CONSULTANT will maintain full and accurate records with respect to all services and matters covered under this Agreement. CITY will have free access at all reasonable times to such records, and the right to examine and audit the same and to make transcript therefrom, and to inspect all program data, documents, proceedings and activities. CONSULTANT will retain such financial and program service records for at least three (3) years after termination or final payment under this Agreement.

23. INSURANCE.

A. Before commencing performance under this Agreement, and at all other times this Agreement is effective, CONSULTANT will procure and maintain the following types of insurance with coverage limits complying, at a minimum, with the limits set forth below:

Type of Insurance Limits
Commercial general liability: $2,000,000
Professional Liability $1,000,000
Business automobile liability $1,000,000
Workers compensation Statutory requirement
B. Commercial general liability insurance will meet or exceed the requirements of the most recent ISO-CGL Forms. The amount of insurance set forth above will be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. Liability policies will be endorsed to name CITY, its officials, and employees as "additional insureds" under said insurance coverage and to state that such insurance will be deemed "primary" such that any other insurance that may be carried by CITY will be excess thereto. Such insurance will be on an "occurrence," not a "claims made," basis and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to CITY.

C. Professional liability coverage will be on an "occurrence basis" if such coverage is available, or on a "claims made" basis if not available. When coverage is provided on a "claims made basis," CONSULTANT will continue to renew the insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.

D. Automobile coverage will be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 01 06 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto).

E. CONSULTANT will furnish to CITY duly authenticated Certificates of Insurance evidencing maintenance of the insurance required under this Agreement and such other evidence of insurance or copies of policies as may be reasonably required by CITY from time to time. Insurance must be placed with insurers with a current A.M. Best Company Rating equivalent to at least a Rating of "A:VII."
F. Should CONSULTANT, for any reason, fail to obtain and maintain the insurance required by this Agreement, CITY may obtain such coverage at CONSULTANT's expense and deduct the cost of such insurance from payments due to CONSULTANT under this Agreement or terminate pursuant to Section 16.

G. Self -Insured Retention/Deductibles. All policies required by this Agreement must allow CITY, as additional insured, to satisfy the self -insured retention ("SIR") and deductible of the policy in lieu of CONSULTANT (as the named insured) should CONSULTANT fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements. The amount of the SIR or deductible is subject to the approval of the CITY Attorney and the Finance Director. CONSULTANT understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by CONSULTANT as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should CITY pay the SIR or deductible on CITY's behalf upon the CONSULTANT'S failure or refusal to do so in order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional insured under the policy, CITY may include such amounts as damages in any action against CONSULTANT for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by CITY due to the breach.
24 USE OF SUBCONTRACTORS. CONSULTANT must obtain CITY's prior written approval to use any consultants while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval must approve of the proposed consultant and the terms of compensation.

25. INCIDENTAL TASKS. CONSULTANT will meet with CITY monthly to provide the status on the project, which will include a schedule update and a short narrative description of progress during the past month for each major task, a description of the work remaining and a description of the work to be done before the next schedule update.

26. NOTICES. All communications to either party by the other party will be deemed made when received by such party at its respective name and address as follows:
