Department Recommendation:

Summary:

June 9, 2026 Regular Meeting of the Exeter City Council

(6) submittals were received and reviewed by the Director of Public Works for completeness, experience, and qualifications. Each firm was rated based on the contents of their submittal package. The evaluation criteria included each firm’s understanding of work that would be completed for City projects within the on-call program, design and construction management experience with an emphasis on state and federally funded projects, qualifications and experience of staff identified within the proposal submitted to complete Exeter projects, and the firm’s experience with local, state and federal procedures and requirements for state and federally funded projects. The recommended firms demonstrated that they possess the qualifications, experience, and local knowledge needed to complete tasks required to complete state and federally funded projects effectively in a timely manner.

The City of Exeter issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) seeking qualified professional engineering firms to provide on-call engineering services The City Engineer serves a critical role in supporting City operations, capital delivery, development review, and regulatory compliance associated with the City’s infrastructure systems; while alternate on-call engineering firms are often contracted on a per project basis to provide services beyond the normal scope of the City Engineer. On-call engineers are primarily used for extensive design on large infrastructure projects, state and federally funded grant-funded projects, or for projects that require specialized staff.

The City received six (6) proposals by the deadline. Firms submitting proposals included:
• Provost & Pritchard Consulting Group
• 4Creeks, Inc.
• QK, Inc.
• A&M Consulting Engineers
• Bedrock Engineering
• Lars Anderson and Associates, Inc.

Staff evaluated the proposals for responsiveness to the City’s RFQ requirements, including:
• Understanding of the work to be completed
• Design Engineering experience of specifically identified state/federal funded projects • Construction Engineering/Management experience of specifically identified state/federal funded projects
• Qualifications of individual within the Consultant's organization directly responsible for the work
• Familiarity with local, state and federal procedures/requirements Staff reviewed the proposals and determined that four firms met the criteria outlined in the RFQ. The firms recommended for the on-call contract are:
• Provost & Pritchard Consulting Group
• 4Creeks, Inc.
• QK, Inc.
• A&M Consulting Engineers
Background:

June 9, 2026 Regular Meeting of the Exeter City Council

The establishment of the list of on call engineers does not have a fiscal impact. The recommended engineering firms will be provided with task orders from the Public Works Department to perform work on various projects, each firm will have an opportunity to provide a cost representative of the scope outlined in the task order.

In special cases, one firm may be directly selected over the others based on their specialty, capability to handle projects of the respective nature, or related experience with the project itself. The fiscal impact will be evaluated on a task order and project basis. Funding sources will be identified and confirmed prior to issuance of individual task orders. On-call special project engineering services may be funded through the General Fund, enterprise funds, capital project budgets, grants, or other available funding sources, as appropriate.

On February 24, 2026, the City Council approved the release of the RFQ pending final review and approval from the State of California.

Addendum #1
April 21, 2026
Clarification and answering of questions submitted via email:

Q1: In section 5 part B, there is what appears to be a portion of a sentence that was deleted. The remaining sentence is just a fragment and does not make sense. The sentence in question reads, “Consultants must specify” and then the next sentence starts. Does this sentence fragment need to be deleted, or does some additional wording need to be added to complete the sentence. If wording is to be added, what is the complete sentence?
A1: “Consultants must specify” should be deleted.

Q2: Section 1 of the RFQ (see “Notice to Proposers” table), states that one hard copy of the SOQ shall be mailed/hand delivered. Section 4-9-B states 5 hard copies of the SOQ are required. This appears to be a conflict. How many hard copies of the SOQ does the City require? A2: ONE (1) hard copy mailed or hand delivered, with a flash drive version included, -OR- an emailed digital copy in lieu of the flash drive copy. A single hard copy is required regardless of the digital version delivery method.

Q3: How many wet signed hard copies of the SOQ are required? A3: ONE (1)
Q4: Section 1 of the RFQ (see “Notice to Proposers” table), states that both a hard copy of the SOQ and an emailed/digital (thumb drive) copy of the SOQ are to be delivered to the City.

Section 4-9-B states that faxed or emailed copies will not be allowed. There appears to be a conflict regarding acceptance of emailed copies of the SOQ. Are emailed copies of the SOQ allowed? Are emailed copies of the SOQ required?
A4: ONE (1) hard copy mailed or hand delivered, with a flash drive version included, -OR- an emailed digital copy in lieu of the flash drive copy. A single hard copy is required regardless of the digital version delivery method.

City of Exeter RFQ 26-01
Addendum #2
April 23, 2026
Clarification and answering of questions submitted via email:

Q1: Regarding RFQ 26-01: The work description lists 'General civil' and 'Construction management,' but does the City also anticipate a need for on-call Electrical Engineering services (e.g., power system studies, Title 24, and electrical design support) for its federally and state-funded infrastructure? If so, should specialized electrical firms submit as a standalone SOQ or as part of a civil team?"
A1: We don’t anticipate the need for significant electrical engineering beyond what a Civil engineer can provide. If we do run into an instance that would require an electrical engineer, we would solicit separately or give approved consultants the opportunity to subcontract.

Q2: Regarding the litigation statement. Is it acceptable to provide information for the last five years?
A1: 5 years is acceptable.

Q3: Can the City clarify what the submission deadline is? On page one of the RFP, it states the proposal submission deadline is May 6th, and on page 16, it lists the submission deadline as May 8th.

A3: May 8th as Bidnet has listed.

Q4: Can the City clarify how many copies are required for submission? On page one, it states one copy and one USB, and on page 16, it states submissions should be 5 copies and one electronic copy.

A4: Please review Addendum 1.

Q5: Are you anticipating needing a licensed architect on this contract in addition to landscape architecture?
A5: No. Any additional services required will be solicited separately or the on-call firms can present a subcontractor.

Q6: In reviewing Section 4B. (Submission Instructions) and Section 8 of the RFQ, it is referencing an “Attachment 2” but there is only “Attachment 1” in the RFQ document. What Agreement with the “Proposers Acknowledgement of the draft contract agreement” is needed to be included.

June 9, 2026 Regular Meeting of the Exeter City Council 7

Project Management Approach
Team Structure and Accountability
4Creeks provides a dedicated, locally based team structured specifically to serve the City of Exeter throughout the duration of this on-call contract. With our headquarters in Visalia, we are positioned to provide responsive, in-person support with minimal lead time. Ms. Lisa Wallis-Dutra, PE, TE, PTOE, RSP₁, will serve as Project Manager and primary point of contact.

She brings direct familiarity with the City, previously serving as Contract City Engineer, and will be responsible for scope control, schedule adherence, budget management, and
coordination with City staff, regulatory agencies, and
subconsultants as needed.

Communication and Coordination
Clear, documented communication is central to our approach.

We maintain regular coordination with City staff, Caltrans Local Assistance, utility providers, and external agencies throughout every phase of project delivery. Meeting agendas, action items, and follow-up documentation are distributed promptly after each meeting to maintain alignment, resolve issues quickly, and support informed decision-making. Given our proximity to Exeter, Ms. Wallis-Dutra and our construction management staff are available to mobilize quickly when field-related issues require a rapid response. This close, ongoing communication ensures that emerging challenges are identified and
addressed before they affect schedule, budget, or funding eligibility.

Project Initiation, Planning, and Controls
Each project begins with a focused kickoff meeting to confirm scope, deliverables, schedule, funding considerations, and City expectations. Based on this discussion, 4Creeks develops a concise, task-specific work plan that defines responsibilities, milestones, review points, anticipated agency coordination, and budget considerations. This upfront planning establishes clear expectations and supports efficient delivery under timeand-materials task orders.

To maintain schedule, budget, and risk control throughout project execution, 4Creeks utilizes a proprietary Project Status List to track critical project elements, including funding requirements, task progression, agency coordination,
environmental clearance, ADA/PROWAG compliance, utility coordination, right-of-way activities, PS&E development, and overall schedule. Monthly coordination meetings and progress reports keep the City informed, while regular updates to the status list ensure tasks remain on schedule, within scope, and aligned with project priorities. This approach ensures projects remain compliant with federal and state requirements while maintaining eligibility for reimbursement and minimizing the risk of delay.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control
The success of each project delivered by 4Creeks is grounded in a structured and consistent quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) process. For federal and state-funded
projects, QA/QC is not just about technical quality but is also about protecting reimbursement eligibility and keeping
projects audit-ready at every phase. Mr. Jason Watts, PE, will oversee QA/QC for all task orders. As Municipal Market Sector Lead and a licensed Professional Engineer with extensive experience delivering public works projects, Mr. Watts brings a strong understanding of design standards, constructability, and regulatory compliance. His experience managing projects from funding and environmental clearance through design and construction provides valuable insight into identifying potential issues early and ensuring consistency across all project phases.
4Creeks will perform independent internal reviews at key project milestones (typically 30%, 60%, 90%, and final) to verify technical accuracy, constructability, and compliance with City standards, Caltrans LAPM requirements, and applicable
funding program obligations. All comments are tracked,
addressed, and verified before submittal to ensure
deliverables are complete, coordinated, and audit-ready. Key elements of our QA/QC process include coordination checks between all disciplines and subconsultants, constructability and cost review to minimize change orders, standardized document preparation and submittal checklists, and ongoing communication with City staff throughout the project.

Full-Service Team Support
Combining strong local experience, multidisciplinary technical depth, and a leadership team dedicated to municipal service delivery, 4Creeks is well-positioned to fulfill the on-call contract responsibilities outlined in the RFQ. For the City of Exeter, this means a single, accountable team ready to move from task order authorization to project closeout without missing a beat. Whether overseeing construction or leading the design of critical roadway, active transportation, water, sewer, or drainage projects, our team is committed to
delivering high-quality, compliant engineering solutions that support the City's infrastructure goals and protect its investment in federal and state funding.

Relevant Experience and Expertise
4Creeks is built on a simple conviction: successful
infrastructure projects require a partner who understands not only engineering but also the regulatory, funding, and
coordination complexities associated with federally and statefunded improvements. For nearly two decades, we have supported public agencies throughout the Central Valley with on-call engineering services, helping cities navigate funding requirements while delivering projects efficiently and in full compliance with applicable regulations.

Our team brings extensive experience with projects
administered through Caltrans Local Assistance, FHWA, and the State Water Resources Control Board. We are well-versed in the Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM), including project initiation, authorization, environmental clearance, right-of-way certification, PS&E development, and construction support through closeout. This expertise allows us to guide projects seamlessly from concept through completion while maintaining funding eligibility, meeting documentation
requirements, and avoiding common delays.

Many members of our team have direct experience working within or alongside public agencies, providing valuable insight into agency workflows, funding constraints, and coordination needs. Supported by a multidisciplinary team of civil,
transportation, water, wastewater, environmental, surveying, and construction professionals, we deliver integrated solutions across all phases of project delivery. With over 17 years of experience in the Central Valley and a strong local presence, we provide responsive, hands-on support to keep projects moving forward efficiently.

Multidisciplinary Expertise
Our in-house capabilities allow us to efficiently deliver complex projects while maintaining quality and consistency across disciplines. Our services include:

4Creeks has significant experience delivering projects requiring coordination with Caltrans Local Assistance and compliance with the Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM). Our team routinely prepares and processes Project Authorization
Requests, Program Supplement Agreements, and Requests for Authorization (RFA) for preliminary engineering and
construction phases. We work closely with City staff and Caltrans representatives to ensure submittals are complete, responsive, and aligned with program requirements,
supporting timely obligation of funds and minimizing delays.

Our experience spans roadway improvements, multimodal
transportation projects, safety enhancements, corridor
upgrades, and utility infrastructure projects funded through state and federal programs. We understand the importance of maintaining clear documentation, tracking eligibility, and coordinating closely with funding agencies throughout the project lifecycle.

Projects delivered by our team are routinely subject to audit and compliance review. Any findings have been minor and promptly resolved, with no impacts to funding eligibility or project delivery. This track record reflects our disciplined approach to documentation, regulatory compliance, and
quality control when delivering federally and state funded projects.

Kern Street Storm Drain Improvements
Dinuba, CA
Civil Engineering | Utility Coordination
Project Objective
This project was completed to improve a flooding issue the City of Dinuba experienced for approximately 50 years. Most residents in the downtown area had become accustomed to the flooding that occurred and were used to gathering sand bags in normal storm events. The existing storm drain facilities downtown were inadequate and could not handle heavy rainfall. During a heavy rainfall event, the downtown area would experience flooding which would severely impact businesses and property owners.

Project Description
Mr. Jason Watts was responsible for the design, coordination with the railroad, and construction management of this project. The project included the following aspects:
• Installation of over 3,000 linear-feet of 60-inch storm drain pipe through the downtown area
• Replacement of an existing 8-inch water main
• Reconstruction of a decorative stamped concrete intersection • Curb ramp, drive approach, and sidewalk improvements to meet current ADA requirements
• Major utility coordination with UPRR (Union Pacific Railroad) and SJVRR (San Joaquin Valley Railroad) to cross railroad facilities with an 80-inch steel casing • Jack and Bore an 80-inch steel casing
Project Outcome
The project team was able to resolve a flooding problem that the City of Dinuba experienced for approximately 50 years.

Kaweah Street Storm Drain Improvements
Woodlake, CA
Civil Engineering
Project Objective
The objective of the Kaweah Street Storm Drain Improvements project was to design and implement a stormwater conveyance system that would significantly reduce long-standing flooding issues in the Kaweah Street corridor between Walnut Street and Antelope Creek in the City of Woodlake. The goal was to maximize storm drain capacity within the constraints of existing underground utilities, divert flows away from an undersized 12-inch storm drain system, and provide resilience against high-intensity storm events while maintaining cost-effectiveness.

Project Description
4Creeks designed a new storm drain system featuring a 42-inch diameter pipe (the largest size feasible given existing utility conflicts) to convey stormwater west to Antelope Creek. The system was engineered with oversized storm drain segments at Cypress and Walnut Streets to improve capacity and provide additional underground storage during events when the creek is flowing full. Hydraulic modeling included both a 10-year storm event scenario (with Antelope Creek not full) and a full-flow scenario (creek and storm drain at capacity) to evaluate system performance. The design accounted for future development impacts where possible, and incorporated features such as check valves to reduce backflow from the creek.

Project Outcome
The design increases stormwater conveyance capacity along Kaweah Street, greatly reducing the frequency and severity of flooding during typical storm events. By installing the largest feasible pipe size and incorporating oversized segments for storage, the system provides immediate flood relief and accommodates anticipated future flows.

Contract Agreement
4Creeks would like to request clarification on this clause. (1) The ownership of documents provision assigns all work product back to the City upon completion, with no license back or limitation on reuse. This seems to be a bit broader than the standard ACEC style instruments of service language, which is an industry norm here and may create downstream liability exposure if documents are reused without our involvement.

engineering/management, as needed.

2. Organization & Approach
Community Outreach.

Two-Stage Outreach Approach
• We treat community outreach as a continuous process:
first to gather input that shapes grant applications, then to fulfill outreach and reporting requirements once
funding is awarded.

Pre-Grant Community Input
• Conduct community meetings, workshops, and pop-up
events to identify needs, safety concerns, and project
ideas.
• Use clear visual exhibits, concept sketches, and plainlanguage summaries of potential improvements. • Provide multilingual surveys (online and in-person)
and coordinate with schools, community groups, and
businesses.
• Ensure that grant applications are grounded in
community-identified needs and priorities.

Grant-Funded Outreach & Compliance
• Prepare outreach plans tailored to each grant
program’s guidelines and schedules.
• Host public meetings to review design options and
project milestones, and support school-based safety
campaigns and volunteer events.
• Manage logistics, materials, sign-in sheets, photos,
and summary memos for use in grant progress reports
and closeout documentation.

City Partnership & Capacity Building
• Act as an extension of City staff by organizing and
documenting outreach so it is meaningful to residents
and fully compliant with funding requirements.
• Use completed outreach to strengthen future
grant applications and build a reliable pipeline of
competitive projects for the City of Exeter.

Community Town Hall Meetings
A&M Consulting Engineers hosts town hall meetings in partnership with the cities we serve to gather valuable input from community members. We recognize the importance of listening to residents’ concerns and priorities. During these meetings, our team presents exhibits of potential projects that have generated community interest.

Attendees are encouraged to provide feedback and suggest changes, ensuring the proposals reflect local needs. This collaborative process allows us to refine project concepts and pursue grant funding opportunities, minimizing reliance on local funds and maximizing community benefit.

City of Corcoran Community Cleanup Event
A&M Consulting Engineers partnered with the City of Corcoran on a resident-led cleanup campaign that brought neighbors, staff, and volunteers together to clean streets, alleys, and public spaces. These events met Clean CA Local Grant requirements and paved the way for permanent improvements along the Whitley Avenue gateway corridor, including drought-tolerant landscaping, targeted litter reduction, energy-efficient lighting, and ADA-accessible sidewalks, curb ramps, and crossings.

A&M Consulting Engineers partnered with Selma Unified School District and the City of Selma on an STP-funded Tactical Urbanism pilot to quickly improve streets around school campuses. With principals, crossing guards, and families, we installed low-cost, quick-build curb extensions, daylighted corners, high-visibility crosswalks, simplified student pick-up/drop-off, median refuges, and clear signing/striping. Before/ after observations, speed checks, and student travel tallies showed calmer, more predictable drop-off and now guide permanent safety improvements shaped by families’ input.

2. Organization & Approach
Grant Management.

After conducting meaningful community outreach, A&M Consulting Engineers takes the community’s concerns and priorities and turns them into clear and fundable projects.

We then match projects with the most suitable state and federal programs and structure competitive applications so community-driven needs can move forward with secured funding.

Develop and Maintain a Grant Management Plan:

A&M is well-versed in creating comprehensive grant management plans that outline key milestones, deliverables, and responsibilities. These plans serve as roadmaps to ensure that every aspect of the grant is systematically addressed and that all stakeholders are aware of their roles and timelines.

Monitor Grant Expenditures and Budget Adherence:

Budget management and adherence to grantor requirements are critical aspects of our expertise. We have a proven ability to closely monitor grant expenditures, track financial data, and ensure that spending aligns with grant guidelines. This approach guarantees compliance while optimizing resource utilization.

Coordinate with City Staff:

Collaboration is at the heart of our approach. We work closely with program staff to ensure that project activities align seamlessly with the grant’s objectives. Effective communication and coordination are central to our strategy for successful grant implementation.

Maintain Detailed Records and Documentation:

Our team places a premium on record-keeping and documentation.

We maintain meticulous records of all grant-related activities, transactions, and correspondence. This rigorous documentation is essential for demonstrating compliance and accountability to grantors.

Prepare and Submit Progress Reports:

We are proficient in preparing and submitting regular progress reports to grantors in strict accordance with established timelines and guidelines.

Our reports provide a comprehensive overview of project developments, achievements, challenges, and financial updates. Timely reporting is a hallmark of our commitment to transparency.

We are experienced in managing the diverse reporting requirements of our funding sources. For example, under the CDBG program, we submit a Quarterly Progress Report via the eCivis platform that includes both financial and activity data. Similarly, funding sources such as Clean CA require a quarterly progress report, submitted within 45 days, using Smartsheet.

Maintain Accurate and Complete Grant Files:

Our dedication to organization extends to maintaining accurate and complete grant files. These files include financial records, progress reports, correspondence with grantors, and any other pertinent documents. Our systematic approach ensures that all documentation is readily accessible and well-organized.

Ensure Timely Submission of Required Documentation:

Meeting deadlines for grant deliverables is non-negotiable for us. We prioritize timely submission of all required materials, from progress reports to financial statements and any additional documentation specified by grantors. This punctuality is integral to maintaining positive relationships with funding entities.

information, etc.)
• Identify potential conflicts, access issues, and right-ofway or property constraints.

Analysis & Concept Development
• Analyze existing conditions and data to understand
needs, deficiencies, and risks.
• Develop and compare feasible design concepts,
including “no build” or minimal-intervention options
where appropriate.
• Evaluate concepts against applicable standards,
Owner objectives, constructability, and life-cycle costs. • Meet with the Owner to review concepts and confirm a
preferred alternative for design.

Preliminary Design (Concept to ~30%)
• Prepare preliminary layouts, typical sections, and key design parameters.
• Identify required surveys, geotechnical work, or
specialty studies and incorporate findings.
• Coordinate early with utilities, permitting agencies, and affected stakeholders.
• Provide a preliminary opinion of probable construction cost for budget and phasing discussions.

Design Development & PS&E (Progress Submittals)
• Advance the design through structured submittals (e.g., 30%, 60%, 90%, and Final).
• Prepare and refine:
- Plan drawings, details, & profiles.
- Technical specifications & special
provisions.
- Quantities and detailed Engineer’s Estimates.
- Staging and temporary traffic control or
access plans, if applicable.
• Integrate comments from the City, utilities, and
reviewing agencies at each stage.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC)
• Assign senior staff not involved in day-to-day production to perform independent reviews.
• Check for conformance with applicable codes,
standards, and funding requirements.
• Verify consistency among plans, specifications, and
estimates.
• Review for constructability, phasing, safety, and longterm maintenance considerations.

Permitting, Approvals, and Coordination
• Support the City in obtaining required permits and
approvals.
