JVA/BVCA shall provide comprehensive general liability insurance in the form of a certificate naming "the City of Hermosa Beach, its officers, agents, volunteers, and employees as additional insureds." JVA/BVCA shall maintain insurance coverage meeting the standards outlined in this Section at all times during the term of the Events permitted by this Agreement. All certificates are subject to approval of the City’s Risk Manager. Coverage shall be at least as broad as Insurance Services Form CG 00 01 covering commercial general liability on an "occurrence" basis, including property damage, bodily injury, death, and personal and advertising injury with limits no less than $2,000,000 per occurrence.

JVA/BVCA shall provide evidence that the commercial general liability insurance includes coverage for injuries to athletic participants and participant accident insurance. If JVA/BVCA maintains broader coverage and/or higher limits than the minimums shown above, the City requires and shall be entitled to the broader coverage and/or the higher limits maintained. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the City. JVA/BVCA shall furnish properly executed certificates of insurance to City, which certificates shall clearly evidence all coverage required above and provide that such insurance shall not be materially changed, terminated or allowed to expire except on thirty (30) days prior written notice to City; and further, shall provide that if JVA/BVCA fails to pay any required deductible or self-insured retention, City may do so at JVA/BVCA’s expense.
l. Indemnification.

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 1 of 3
Meeting Date: January 13, 2026
Staff Report No. 26-CDD-002
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council INTRODUCE AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SUBSECTION 17.08.020 (D) OF THE

HERMOSA BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE PERTAINING TO HOME OCCUPATIONS (CITYWIDE).

CEQA: Determine the ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines (Common Sense Exception).
(Community Development Director Alison Becker)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Determine the ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines (Common Sense Exception);

2. Conduct a public hearing to consider amending subsection 17.08.020 (D) of the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code pertaining to Home Occupations (Citywide); and

3. Introduce by title only and waive first reading of an Ordinance of the City of the Hermosa Beach approving Zoning Text Amenment (TA25-04) pertaining to Home Occupations (Attachment 1).

Executive Summary:

This item proposes amendments to the Hermosa Beach Municipal Code (HBMC) Section

17.08.020 (D) to simplify and expedite the business license process for home-based businesses. The amendments are intended to enhance customer service, reduce processing time, and improve consistency and transparency in the City’s business licensing practices.

The proposed changes align with the City Council’s goals of supporting local economic vitality, improving efficiency in City operations, and fostering a business-friendly environment while maintaining compliance with applicable regulations.

Background:

The City currently regulates business licensing under Hermosa Beach Municipal Code Chapter 5.04. Hermosa Beach Municipal Code Section 17.08.020 further defines the uses permitted in the R-1 Single-Family Residential Zone, including commercial uses such as home occupations. While the existing procedures for commercial businesses and home

Page 585 of 1021 ends

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 3
occupations provide necessary regulatory oversight, they were developed prior to the implementation of the City’s current digital permitting systems and do not fully reflect best practices for online, streamlined, and customer-centered processes.

Staff conducted a review of the City’s business license processes in coordination with Administrative Services, Community Development, and the City Manager’s Office. The review identified several opportunities to modernize and clarify existing requirements for both commercial business and home occupation licenses.

On December 16, 2025, staff presented the proposed amendments to the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission for review and discussion, received feedback from the Commissioners, and incorporated their input into the final recommendations.

Past Council Actions
Meeting Date Description
December 9, 2025
City Council reviewed proposed amendments and directed
staff to forward the proposed amendments to the Hermosa Beach Planning Commission.

Analysis:

To modernize and streamline the City’s business licensing process, the Planning Commission recommended that City Council approve the proposed amendments to refine and clarify application requirements, ensuring consistency and transparency in documentation standards for both commercial and home-based businesses. The following updates to Section 17.08.020(D) would simplify and modernize home occupation requirements:

Proposed Amendments to HBMC Section 17.08.020 (D) – Home Occupations:

1. Update Subsection (7): Replace the reference to “Planning Department” with “Community Development Department” to reflect the current department title.

2. Update Subsection (11): Updating the title from “Planning Director” to current title, “Community Development Director.” This change will ensure our code reflects the most accurate and up-to-date organizational structure.

3. Update Subsection (12): Per Planning Commission’s recommendation, the Planning Commission review was removed and replaced with review and approval by the “Community Development Director.” This change will streamline the review process while maintaining appropriate administrative oversight and consistency with City procedures.

Page 586 of 1021 ends

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 3

4. Delete Subsection (17): Remove subsection (17), which requires a physical inspection of the premises prior to permit approval. Staff inspections for home occupations are no longer necessary given the limited, low-impact nature of most home-based businesses. Removing this requirement will reduce staff workload and expedite permit issuance without compromising code compliance or public safety. Additionally, inspections of home offices are no longer common practice in neighboring jurisdictions.

Environmental Determination:

The proposed zoning text amendment is a project subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and qualifies for an exemption from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption) of the State CEQA Guidelines (Chapter 3 of Division 6 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations). The activity is covered by the Common Sense Exemption that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. There is no possibility that the proposed change to the zoning code may have a significant effect on the environment, therefore the activity is not subject to CEQA. No special circumstances exist that the proposed change would create a significant adverse effect on the environment (i.e. no sensitive species or habitats, no hazardous sites, no scenic highways, no historic resources, etc.).

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended actions.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council

AWARD OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR CITY YARD PROJECT OWNER’S REPRESENTATIVE SERVICES
(Public Works Director Joe SanClemente)
Recommended Action:

Staff recommends City Council:

1. Award a contract for City Yard owner’s representative services to Cumming Management Group, Inc. at a not-to-exceed amount of $565,000 for a term of four years ending January 13, 2030 (Attachment 3); and

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute and the City Clerk to attest the proposed agreement subject to approval by the City Attorney.

Executive Summary:

The Fiscal Year 2025–2026 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) includes CIP 615 New Corporate Yard Facilities to fully renovate the City Yard facility at 555 6th Street. Given the size and complexity of the Project, staff recommends to City Council retaining the services of an experienced owner’s representative (OR) to augment City staff and facilitate the advancement of the long-awaited project. The OR will act as an extension of City staff, advocate the best interests of the City; providing strategic oversight, technical guidance, and coordination support to ensure the project is delivered on time, within budget, and to the City’s quality requirements.

At its September 9, 2025 meeting, City Council directed staff to issue the Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for Owners Representative Services for the City Yard Project.

Following a competitive RFQ process, staff recommends the City Council award a Professional Services Agreement to Cumming Management Group, Inc. (Cumming Group) at a not-to-exceed amount of $565,000, and a term of four years ending January 13, 2030. OR services are intended to include all phases of the project, from pre-design through construction completion and closeout; however, the current scope of work covers only pre-construction services. Construction period services will be considered at a later date and subject to City Council approval at that time.

Background:

The Fiscal Year 2025–2026 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) includes CIP 615 New Corporate Yard Facilities intended to fully renovate the City Yard facility at 555 6th Street.

The existing facility has far exceeded its useful life and is in poor condition with a growing urgency for extensive repairs and renovation to ensure continued use and efficient service delivery.

During the 2023 and 2024 CIP Study Sessions, Council indicated a desire for staff to evaluate the potential for the project to proceed through an alternative delivery model (i.e., design-build versus the design-bid-build method) with the goal of retaining a contractor–designer team through a qualifications-based selection, potential risk transfer, and reducing overall cost and schedule uncertainty.

Staff presented a brief presentation comparing both options to City Council during the May 13, 2025, CIP Study Session meeting for initial consideration. At that meeting, Council directed staff to seek additional input from the Public Works Commission on the preferred project delivery method and then return to City Council.

At its July 16, 2025 meeting, staff provided a presentation to the Public Works Commission (Commission) comparing the two proposed project delivery methods, and the necessary steps to advance the project under either method, including the importance of retaining OR services. Commission passed a motion recommending the City Council consider proceeding with the design-bid-build (DBB) method for the City Yard Project, citing concerns about potential unknowns in the guaranteed maximum price (GMP) at time of contract award and process constraints for design development and review.

In reviewing the concerns highlighted by the Public Works Commission, staff reevaluated the necessary steps to advance the project and determined that a decision on project delivery method was not yet required and there were other critical path items necessary to advance the project under either method, including retaining the services of an experienced owner’s representative (OR), advancing the project programming, updating environmental assessments, consideration of temporary relocation of existing operations off-site (e.g., storage facility site), and continued evaluation of financing options that will need to be in place before the project can fully advance.

Staff presented the project delivery plan to City Council at its meeting on September 9, 2025, at which time City Council directed staff to proceed with the issuance of the RFQ for OR services for the City Yard Project as well as direction to proceed with the project programming and environmental assessments.

Public Works
Commission:

July 16, 2025
Public Works Commission reviewed delivery options and made a motion recommending City Council to proceed with the

City Council:

September 9, 2025
City Council directed staff to proceed with issuing the Request for Qualifications for Owners Representative services for the City Yard Project; advance the environmental assessment; and commence project programming phases of the project.

Discussion:

On September 10, 2025, the City issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) 25-006 (Attachment 1) inviting experienced and highly qualified firms to submit a statement of qualification (SOQ) through a competitive process. The RFQ was advertised on the City’s online bidding platform, Planet Bids. On Thursday, October 9, 2025, a total of five SOQs were received in response to the RFQ.

The proposing firms are listed below in alphabetical order:
 CSG Consultants, Inc.;

The evaluation sought firms with experience in providing OR services on similar projects for other public sector clients with a proven, responsible, and responsive contract manager to ensure timely execution of all work related to the City Yard project.

Based on a comprehensive review, and following in-person interviews with top ranked firms, staff recommends that City Council award a contract for OR services for the City Yard to the top ranked firm, Cumming Group (Attachment 2 and Attachment 3). Firms were ranked according to the weighted selection criteria described above. The rankings are as follows:

Ranking Company
1 Cumming Management Group, Inc.
2 Griffin Structures
3 Gillis & Panichapan Architects, Inc.
4 Epicus Group
5 CSG Consultants, Inc.

Cumming Group exhibited the greatest understanding of the City’s needs and demonstrated the strongest ability to provide an experienced project manager, who is a

Page 598 of 1021 ends

City of Hermosa Beach | Page 5 of 6
licensed architect, along with experienced supporting staff as needed to advance the project. Cumming Group also had strong professional references and has provided similar services for numerous public agencies including LA County Public Works, Orange County Public Works, the City of Murrieta, the City of West Hollywood, and other municipal, county, state, and federal entities. The designated project manager brings direct expertise working on maintenance yard projects having experience on the Imperial Yard Relocation Study in South Gate for Los Angeles County Flood Control District, Pasadena Public Works Maintenance Yard Renovations, for the City of Pasadena, and most recently, with the City of Anaheim on their maintenance yard project. Cumming Group also has a local office in Hermosa Beach.

The intent of the OR is to assist the City from the pre-design phase of the project through construction completion and close-out; however, the current scope of work and fee is limited to pre-construction phase services only. Construction period services, and fees, would be revisited at a later date and subject to further approval by City Council. The preconstruction phase services are detailed in the scope of work (Attachment 1), which outlines work over an approximately two-year timeframe. The scope also details critical path elements in the next 3 to 6 months including, but not limited to, developing necessary scopes of work for environmental assessments, California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review, and initial architectural feasibility assessments and programming.

Cumming Group will be responsible for coordinating the advancement of the overall project and assisting the City with developing a clear schedule and budget, and advising the City on a project delivery method. The OR will act as an extension of City staff, advocate the best interests of the City; providing strategic oversight, technical guidance, and coordination support to ensure the project is delivered on time, within budget, and to the City’s quality requirements.

If approved by Council, OR services will commence immediately following contract execution, and written notice to proceed, with a not-to-exceed limit of $565,00 with a fouryear term ending January 30, 2030. Services would be performed on a time and materials basis with a not to exceed limit; therefore, hours not spent would not be billed. The contract currently assumes an average of approximately 135 labor hours per month over a two year period, which corresponds to slightly less than one full time equivalent (FTE).

This level of assistance is appropriate for a project of this scale and to ensure that Public Works staff has the necessary support and technical assistance to advance the project in a timely manner.

2. Scope of Services

2.1 City Location and Characteristics
The City of Hermosa Beach is located within the southwestern coastal portion of Los Angeles County in what is commonly referred to locally as the “South Bay” area. The City is bounded on the north by the City of Manhattan Beach, on the south by the City of Redondo Beach, on the east by the City of Redondo Beach and the City of Manhattan Beach, and on the west by the Pacific Ocean. The City limits for Hermosa Beach encompass a relatively small land area, approximately 1.4 square miles. Hermosa Beach is thriving, and engaged community, with some 20,000 residents and naturally draws a high number of visitors to its beaches and downtown.

Governed by a five-member City Council with members elected at large, Hermosa Beach operates under the council/city manager form of government as a general law city. Like the community, the Council is informed, educated, and engaged. The programs and services provided by the City are accomplished through seven City departments:

Administrative Services, City Clerk, City Manager, Community Development, Community Resources, Police, and Public Works.

2.2 Description
The City of Hermosa Beach, (“Owner”), is seeking statements of qualifications for Owner’s Representative (OR) services for development of a new Public Works Maintenance Facility (Project). The Project includes construction of a new facility comprised of various components including administration offices, maintenance and operations building, indoor and outdoor storge, vehicle maintenance building, outdoor parking, interim housing/temporary relocation of the current operation, and associated site work.

The construction delivery methods for the Project may include but are not limited to one or more of the following: design-bid-build, design-build, progressive design-build or publicprivate-partnership (3P).

City requires a proactive Owner’s Representative to provide comprehensive oversight and project management services throughout the life of Project ensuring that it is completed on schedule, within budget, and to the highest quality and safety standards.

2.2.1 Project Descriptioin
The Project will consist of environmental assessment, any necessary environmental remediation activities, demolition of existing buildings and facilities, programming, preliminary design, design and construction of a new public works maintenance facility through design-bid-build or alternative delivery model.

The site designated for development of the Project is a 1.38-acre parcel owned by the City of Hermosa Beach, located at 555 6th Street in Hermosa Beach, California, within Assessor’s Parcel Number 4187-031-900 and is located on the northwest corner of Valley Drive and 6th Street. The site houses the existing City’s Public Works Maintenance Yard. The City also has two other Public Works Facilities, and irrigation workshop at 530 4th Street and an electrical workshop and general storage facility at 1110 6th Street, that are in poor condition and

Page 610 of 1021 ends

RFQ 25-006 City of Hermosa Beach
lead to operational inefficiencies that will need to be considered for consolidation into a new facility at the existing 555 6th Street site. The existing City Yard is also one of few locations for City materials and equipment storage and also support operational and storage needs for the City’s third-party maintenance contractors, including trash operations, landscape services, sewer cleaning, and storm drain cleaning.

The City’s existing Public Works Maintenance Yard buildings were constructed between the 1920s and the 1970s. The site is located within an area of predominantly industrial land use with an open, low-rise urban form. The site is bordered by industrial uses. A four-story multifamily building is located approximately 100 feet to the north, zoned R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential). Clark Stadium and South Park are located approximately 450 feet away from the site, both zoned Open Space. The Greenbelt is located east of the property between Valley Drive and Ardmore Avenue. Within the site's immediate vicinity, all built structures are between one and two stories in height.

City’s maintenance activities have included the use of fuel and paint thinner/waste underground storage tanks (USTs). The fuel USTs were removed, and the paint thinner/waste USTs were closed in place in 1998 and 1988, respectively. No significant subsurface impacts were identified during prior investigations of the UST areas. The site was previously used as the City dump from the 1920s until the late 1940s/early 1950s. Subsurface impacts associated with the former dump have been identified in the northern portion of the site.

The northeastern portion of the site was used as a City dump from the late 1920s until the late 1940s/early 1950s. The dump accepted municipal wastes, such as glass, porcelain, ceramic, metal, and burn ash. In the 1920s (based on a 1927 Sanborn Fire Insurance Map), refuse was burned on-site, in a small, older building located near the corner of Valley Drive and 6th Street. Waste was placed to a depth of approximately 45 feet below ground surface (bgs) in the northeast corner of the site.

The overall topography of the site is relatively flat; however, depressions and elevated areas are noted in various areas of the site. An elevated area exists in the central portion of the site. The reason for this elevated area and the depressed area to the west is not known. A large depression is present north of the old southern building. This depression appears to have been created during development and leads to a below-ground garage.

The site has an average elevation of approximately 55 feet above mean sea level (amsl).

Soils outside of the landfilled area have been classified as medium to light brown silty sand, silty coarse sand, and coarse sand (Brycon, 2013). Within the landfilled area, the soils are generally classified as dark silty sands with debris. Site Hydrogeologic Setting According to the 2013 groundwater sampling report, the semi-perched groundwater in the site vicinity is of little beneficial use because of poor quality and low yield (Brycon, 2013). Additionally, the 2013 groundwater report notes that there are no known drinking water wells in the site vicinity. Groundwater was encountered between 46 and 51 feet bgs during the 2013 groundwater investigation (Brycon, 2013). No permanent wells have been established on the site and no groundwater elevation data has been collected. However, it can be assumed that the general groundwater flow direction would be toward the west.

2.3 General Scope of Work
The following is a non-exhaustive summary of the services that are likely to be expected of the owner’s representative for the Project. The City is seeking an effective Owner’s

($2,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. If a commercial general liability insurance form or other form with a general aggregate limit is used, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice the required occurrence limit.

3. Automobile Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the CONSULTANT arising out of or in connection with the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for owned, hired, and non-owned vehicles, in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit for each occurrence.

4. Professional Liability Coverage. The CONSULTANT shall maintain professional errors and omissions liability insurance for protection against claims alleging negligent acts, errors, or omissions which may arise from the CONSULTANT’S operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by the CONSULTANT or by its employees, subcontractors, or sub-consultants. The amount of this insurance shall not be less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a combined single-limit-peroccurrence basis. 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.

B. Endorsements. Each general liability, automobile liability and professional liability insurance policy shall be issued by a financially responsible insurance company or companies admitted and authorized to do business in the State of California, or which is approved in writing by City, and shall be endorsed as follows.

CONSULTANT also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise.

Any insurance maintained by the CITY, including any self-insured retention the CITY may have, shall be considered excess insurance only and shall not contribute with this policy.

3. This insurance shall act for each insured and additional insured as though a separate policy had been written for each, except with respect to the limits of liability of the insuring company.

Page 625 of 1021 ends

RFQ 25-006 City of Hermosa Beach

Page 26 of 35 ends

4. The insurer waives all rights of subrogation against the CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, or agents.

5. Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to the City, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers.

6. The insurance provided by this policy shall not be suspended, voided, canceled, or reduced in coverage or in limits except after thirty (30) days written notice has been received by the CITY.

C. CONSULTANT agrees to provide immediate notice to CITY of any claim or loss against CONSULTANT arising out of the work performed under this agreement. CITY assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve CITY.

D. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the CITY. At the CITY’s option, the CONSULTANT shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.

E. The CONSULTANT shall provide certificates of insurance with original endorsements to the CITY as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein. Certificates of such insurance shall be filed with the CITY on or before commencement of performance of this Agreement. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with the CITY at all times during the term of this Agreement.

F. Failure on the part of the CONSULTANT to procure or maintain required insurance shall constitute a material breach of contract under which the CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11 above.

G. The commercial general and automobile liability policies required by this Agreement shall allow City, as additional insured, to satisfy the self-insured retention (“SIR”) and/or deductible of the policy in lieu of the Consultant (as the named insured) should Consultant fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements.

The amount of the SIR or deductible shall be 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 Consultant’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.

USE OF OTHER CONSULTANTS. CONSULTANT must obtain CITY’s prior written approval to use any sub-consultants while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval must include approval of the proposed consultant and the terms of compensation.

FINAL PAYMENT ACCEPTANCE CONSTITUTES RELEASE. The acceptance by the CONSULTANT of the final payment made under this Agreement shall operate as and be a release of the CITY from all claims and liabilities for compensation to the CONSULTANT for anything done, furnished or relating to the CONSULTANT’S work or

Page 626 of 1021 ends

RFQ 25-006 City of Hermosa Beach

Page 27 of 35 ends

services. Acceptance of payment shall be any negotiation of the CITY’S check or the failure to make a written extra compensation claim within ten (10) calendar days of the receipt of that check. However, approval or payment by the CITY shall not constitute, nor be deemed, a release of the responsibility and liability of the CONSULTANT, its employees, sub-consultants and agents for the accuracy and competency of the information provided and/or work performed; nor shall such approval or payment be deemed to be an assumption of such responsibility or liability by the CITY for any defect or error in the work prepared by the Consultant, its employees, sub-consultants and agents.

CORRECTIONS. In addition to the above indemnification obligations, the CONSULTANT shall correct, at its expense, all errors in the work which may be disclosed during the City’s review of the Consultant’s report or plans. Should the Consultant fail to make such correction in a reasonably timely manner, such correction shall be made by the CITY, and the cost thereof shall be charged to the CONSULTANT. In addition to all other available remedies, the City may deduct the cost of such correction from any retention amount held by the City or may withhold payment otherwise owed CONSULTANT under this Agreement up to the amount of the cost of correction.

NON-APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS. Payments to be made to CONSULTANT by CITY for services preformed within the current fiscal year are within the current fiscal budget and within an available, unexhausted fund.

Re: Request for Qualifications for the City Yard Project – Owner’s Representative Services (RFQ# 25-006) Dear Mr. Nguyen and Review Committee:

Cumming Management Group, Inc. (Cumming Group), is pleased to submit our proposal to provide Owner’s Representative Services for the City Yard Project to the City of Hermosa Beach. Cumming Group has extensive experience managing public works projects of similar sizes and complexities. Because of our comprehensive understanding of local public agency policies and procedures, we are well positioned to provide you with the specialized skills and services needed to manage the demands and high expectations for this complicated project. Cumming Group is a great fit for this work based on the following:
• Southern California Public Agency Owner’s Representative Experience. Since 1996, Cumming Group has specialized in providing value to public clients, serving as owner’s representatives to help manage multimillion-dollar projects from conception to occupancy. We have provided these services for nearly three decades for numerous public agencies including LA County Public Works, Orange County Public Works, the City of Murrieta, the City of West Hollywood, the City of Santa Monica, and many other municipal, county, state, and federal entities. With this breadth of experience, we are well-versed in responding quickly to owners’ needs and efficient in allocating our best available resources in order to complete our clients’ projects to their utmost satisfaction. • Public Works Project Expertise. The firm and our proposed staff for this project are experts at managing public works projects including the delivery of dozens of local public works yard projects, maintenance facilities, City/County offices, and large abatement and demolition projects. We know what it takes to deliver these critical public works’ facilities. First and foremost is that we listen to the staff that work in these buildings and implement their project requests and requirements to best serve the public. • Integrated Services. We can provide a range of comprehensive project- and construction management-related services in-house, including construction project management, master planning, economic development planning and administration, finance management, resident engineering, value engineering, constructability reviews, cost estimating, scheduling, labor compliance, commissioning, data analytics, energy and sustainability solutions, and project controls management. Our depth of resources ensures that we will be able to address any of the City’s needs throughout the course of the project. We have reviewed your scope of services and we are uniquely qualified to manage all services in-house. • Alternative Project Delivery Experience. More often these days, public agencies are partnering with builders to design and construct their projects and, in some cases, leveraging the private dollar to build projects that incorporate civic functions paired with private services. Cumming Group is currently managing dozens of design-build, Progressive Design-Build, CM At-Risk, and Public-Private-Partnership projects for public agencies that include government functions, urban housing components, commercial office, entertainment/recreational facilities, and healthcare services. Our project leaders have the institutional knowledge to advise the City on the delivery of these complicated projects. • This is our Community. Cumming Group has been providing Project and Construction Management services to South Bay clients since 2016 from our Hermosa Beach office location. Being in Hermosa Beach allows us to provide the City with immediate, onthe-ground support at a moment’s notice. With our proximity to the project site (less than 1/2 mile), we ensure efficient, hands-on service, and a consistent presence throughout the project.

Page 642 of 1021 ends

• Our Industry Recognition. We are a trusted advisor in providing high-quality construction management services, as evidenced by our recognition as #8 in Engineering News-Record’s listing of the Top 100 Professional Services Firms, our consistent recognition by the Construction Management Association of America, and our 85% repeat business rate.

Cumming Group has reviewed the scope of work for the project and we fully understand the project requirements and we are committed to managing this project to an on time delivery and under budget targets.

We acknowledge receipt of Addendum No. 1 issued October 1, 2025.

On behalf of Cumming Group, I am pleased to present our qualifications to the City of Hermosa Beach. As Executive Vice President and Principal-in-Charge, I am authorized to represent the firm and make binding decisions in all matters relating to the RFP and our submittal, and I am the person authorized to enter into an agreement with the City. I attest that all information submitted is true and correct.

Sincerely,
Anthony Sanchez, RME, Assoc. DBIA
Executive Vice President
P: 323-855-4710 / E: [email protected]
With over 25 years of professional experience in the architecture, project management, and construction management fields, I am well prepared to lead this high-priority project for the City of Hermosa Beach. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working on some of the largest and most complex projects in the Southern California region, including several public works yard projects, maintenance facility projects, and mission critical facilities.

I have been at the forefront of advocating for alternative project delivery methods over the last 15 years in Southern California and I have helped public agencies establish new procedures and protocols, setup new contract documents, and deliver dozens of projects using Design-Build (D-B), Job Order Contracting (JOC), Construction Manager At-Risk (CMAR), Public-Private-Partnership (P3), and Progressive Design-Build (PDB).

I am also the Cumming Group office leader for the South Bay/Hermosa Beach office since it was established in 2016. I am a resident of nearby Palos Verdes Estates, so I can be at any of these City facilities at a moment’s notice. It is my commitment to you to be available and responsive for any critical project needs within minutes.

I look forward to working with the City on this critical public works project.

Sincerely,
Matthew Feldhaus, Architect, CCM, LEED AP

firm profile

Page 647 of 1021 ends

Proposers should provide a brief profile of the prime consultant and any sub-consultants. Information should include, but is not limited to the following information:

Cumming Group Overview
Established in California in 1996 as a project and cost management company, Cumming Group has evolved into
a multifaceted consulting firm with a determined focus on providing services that add value at every step of a project. Over the last 29 years, we have grown our presence to 60+ offices worldwide – including 12 offices in California – and now employ more than 2,700 team members.

Cumming Group has a very strong and established presence in Los Angeles and Southern California, with more than 375 team members and five office locations in the region. Our local staff includes full-time program and project managers, cost managers, and quantity surveyors, as well as specialists in labor compliance, program and project controls, scheduling, energy services, and dispute resolution and avoidance.

Our South Bay/Hermosa Beach office will service this
project. We are very local – about a 10-minute walk from our offices to the main project site at 555 6th Street, and within a few minutes from the other two project locations at 1110 6th Street and 530 4th Street.

Cumming Group, which was founded in Southern California, completes more projects in the Los Angeles area than in any other geographic area or region. Because of our long presence here, we have a keen and nuanced understanding of the
local construction community and have developed close and long-standing ties with numerous architects, contractors, suppliers, small businesses and other disadvantaged business enterprises, regulatory agencies, community advocacy groups, and more.

Public Sector Experience
From its inception, Cumming Group has specialized in public and civic projects. We have supported dozens of California municipalities and public agencies on work ranging from smaller capital maintenance projects to multibillion-dollar building programs, providing us with an unmatched level of experience in the state.

Our project experience includes management of more
than 10,000 assignments in support of owners, architects, engineers, and others. This includes more than 1,000 projects for cities and counties, covering public housing, fire and police facilities, city halls, civic centers, libraries, port or harbor facilities, offices, community centers, parks, animal shelters, maintenance facilities, roadway improvements, infrastructure improvement projects, and traffic signal improvements
among others. Our experience includes everything from
new construction and renovations to tenant improvements, feasibility studies, and site assessments.

Exclusively Representing Owners
One key characteristic that differentiates Cumming Group from other construction industry service providers is our unwavering commitment to exclusively representing owners. Many of our competitors design or build facilities while also attempting to represent owners fairly and objectively. True advocacy is not always possible when the owner’s interests are not primary.

Cumming Group engages in services exclusive to construction and project management serving as an Owner’s advocate and sole representative and does not engage in competing business interests such as real estate transactions, facility management, architectural design, or general contracting.

The firm’s experience in reviewing engineering studies and understanding of how engineering studies are performed, and experience with construction administration.

5.1 – REVIEWING ENGINEERING STUDIES
Cumming Group has managed some of the most complex
projects in the region. Most of these projects require large engineering studies at the beginning of the project to
understand the risks associated with building the project. Two of the most common preliminary engineering reports that are applicable to this project include CEQA and/or NEPA analysis and Environmental Assessment of the property.

Managing CEQA and NEPA
A new construction project in California, like any project undertaken by a public agency or requiring agency approval, must undergo analysis under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) or the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) if the City decides to pursue federal funding for this project. Cumming Group has managed thousands of projects requiring CEQA and/or NEPA clearances. We will work with the environmental consultant to perform an Initial Study (IS) to determine if the project is exempt from CEQA. If the project is determined to fall under specific exemptions outlined in the CEQA guidelines, like Class 2 that consists of replacement or reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose
and capacity as the structure replaced or Class 32 In-Fill projects that are on sites of less than 5 acres within city limits surrounded by urban uses. The professional environmental consultant will make the appropriate determination.

Even straightforward projects can have environmental impacts, so it would not be surprising if the Initial Study determines additional analysis is required. Common areas of analysis include:
• Geology and Soils: Construction could temporarily disturb soils or affect geological stability.
• Cultural Resources: The consultant will review any historic components of the project (unlikely) or Tribal Cultural Resources that have significance to a Native American tribe. • Noise: Construction activities can generate noise, requiring analysis and potential mitigation measures during construction. • Traffic: Depending on the project’s size and location, construction activities might impact traffic patterns, requiring analysis and mitigation measures.
• Energy and Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Construction
requires energy, and potential impacts related to greenhouse gas emissions may be considered.

These areas of potential impact would be documented in a Negative Declaration (ND) if the project will not have significant adverse environmental effects, or a Mitigated Negative
Declaration (MND) if potential impacts can be reduced to a lessthan-significant level with mitigation measures. In the unlikely event the project may cause significant adverse environmental effects that cannot be avoided, a more detailed Environmental Impact Report (EIR) would be prepared. The EIR analyzes potential effects, identifies mitigation measures, and considers alternatives to the project.

Finally, these would be presented to the public and approved/ adopted by City Council prior to the start of construction.

Environmental Assessment
As identified in the RFQ, the property has a dubious
environmental history with Underground Storage Tanks (USTs) located on site and the property being classified as a dump from the 1920s to the 1950s. The RFQ states that the dump accepted municipal wastes, such as glass, porcelain, ceramic, metal, and burn ash and refuse was burned on-site. We’ve run into this exact scenario multiple times with LA County Park projects.

These parks arose from leftover land that nobody would build on, and we’ve encountered many surprises at these facilities during excavation.

At the Helen Keller Community Center project, the contractor discovered buried trash during excavation for the building foundations. Given the timeline of the materials that were found buried (1920s – 1950s), it was determined that the materials likely contained asbestos and lead. When testing was completed, it was confirmed that there were heavy
concentrations of hazardous materials. The community
center project stalled and a full site remediation through a Remediation Plan (Procedure 5) had to be completed before construction of the Community Center could resume.

Cumming Group worked with a team of consultants to get a Procedure 5 approved through AQMD and RWQCB. The landfill was ultimately capped and clean soil was imported to cover the park to prevent the public from coming into contact with the contaminated soils.

The history of the USTs will require additional administrative investigation since the closure of the tanks does not appear on the State’s geotracker website that identifies open and closed UST cases throughout the state. The selected environmental assessment consultant will be able to determine the status of these tanks through additional investigation with LA County and the RWQCB.

5.2 – EXPERIENCE PROCURING CONSULTANT

AND CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS
Cumming Group brings extensive experience supporting public agencies through every stage of the procurement process – from defining scopes and developing solicitation documents to managing awarded contracts through completion. The
following outlines our proven approach to procuring and administering consultant, construction, best-value, and publicprivate partnership contracts.

Consultant Contracts
Typically, consultants are procured through a qualificationsbased selection. The City may have a set of as-needed consultants for immediate needs and smaller projects that are procured and managed by the Contracts Department. With
larger projects and programs, the City solicits and procures individually. Cumming Group would have the opportunity to provide procurement input for this City Yard Project by assisting with the determination of proper qualifications required.

Cumming Group would help write the scope of work, prepare a Request for Qualifications, and assist the City with the negotiation of fees and execution of the contract.

Once the consultant contracts are finalized and Notices to Proceed are issued, Cumming Group would begin the
administration of the contracts. Administration would involve establishing kick-off meetings, conducting regular project meetings, defining the required deliverables, reviewing draft and final reports, and reviewing and initialing invoices.

Construction Contracts
For low-bid procurements, Cumming Group will help prepare the bid documents, advertise the project, and assist the Contracts Department with evaluation of the bids. We will then work with the lowest responsive and responsible bidder to submit a schedule and schedule of values for review through a consultant agreement. Upon acceptance of the schedule and schedule of values, Cumming Group will prepare a Notice to Proceed (NTP) to begin administration of the construction contract. Once the NTP has been issued, Cumming Group will work to establish kick-off meetings, conduct regular project meetings, respond to RFIs, negotiate change orders, review and initial pay applications, and issue project closeout documents.

Best-Value Contracts
Construction contracts procured through best value selections (qualifications-based) are substantially different than construction contracts procured by low bid. Careful attention must be paid to the management of the scoping documents and the qualifications-based selection of the design-build entity. Cumming Group has managed dozens of design-build, CMAR, and P3 projects, so we are very familiar with the lessons learned of previous best value projects, especially during the procurement and administration processes.

Cumming Group will work tirelessly during the programming and scoping phases to ensure that the needs of the user group are met and translated into a written (and sometimes graphic) document. This phase is critical to prevent exceeding design allowances and change orders during the administration of the best value contract. Parallel to the development of the scoping documents, Cumming Group will assist the City to develop a Request for Qualifications to procure the best value entities. We can then assist with reviewing the submitted qualifications to shortlist a few teams. Our project manager will then meet with the shortlisted teams to help develop their design schemes and assist the City with final selection.

Cumming Group’s tasks will then shift to management of design and construction activities concurrently. We will review the intermittent design packages for conformance with the scoping criteria and make sure that the City’s interests are fulfilled. We will also advocate for the best value team to provide a design manager to ensure the design excellence criteria are being included in the project. We will facilitate presentation meetings and partnering sessions with the City and the user groups. Once all construction activities have commenced, we will provide schedule and cost control management, conduct regular project meetings, review and initial pay applications, and issue project closeout documents.
cumming-group.com Page 667 of 1021 29 City of Hermosa Beach | City Yard Project Public-Private-Partnership/Development Contracts
Cumming Group has experience writing RFPs to procure a
developer in P3 projects. We will develop the scope of work, the terms of the transaction, identify public engagement opportunities, and establish the evaluation criteria for this unique project.

We will also work with a financial consultant to understand the market conditions, identify the terms of the exclusive negotiation period, and establish the deposit and structure of the agreement (i.e. Design-Build-Finance-Operate-Maintain).

Our team will work closely with City Counsel to identify the correct government code that allowed for this contracting method (Government Code Section 25549.1, requiring a joint use component).

Following the scoping/RFP stage, we will assist the City in the selection process as a peer evaluator. Once a shortlist is developed, we set up presentations and working meetings with the teams. Shortlisted proposers will have the opportunity to provide their Letter of Intent (LOI) to the City outlining their proposal, including certain proposed terms and a high-level summary of proposed land uses, massing, entitlements, and ground lease structure.

Based on the submittal, presentation, working meetings, and the LOI, we will assist the City to recommend the highest-rated Proposer to the City council for selection as the Developer.

Following Council approval, we work with the City and selected Developer to execute an Exclusive Negotiation Agreement (ENA), which among other items, provides for an exclusive negotiation period during which specific deal terms will be identified. At this stage, the non-refundable deposit is also collected from the Developer.

As the City’s owner representative, we continue to manage the entitlement, environmental documentation, site analysis, design, and construction processes, carefully balancing the duties of putting the City’s interests at the forefront and not bogging the developer down through excessive contract
administration. Through this process, we ensure that the Developer is at-risk for project completion, but we assist wherever possible to help expedite the project.

The firm’s experience in reviewing, negotiating and facilitating a guaranteed maximum price, particularly in public projects.

5.3 – REVIEWING, NEGOTIATING, AND

FACILITATING A GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE
In addition to the firm having reviewed, negotiated, and facilitated thousands of Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) contracts across North America and Europe, the proposed Project Manager, Matthew Feldhaus has negotiated dozens of GMP contracts, both in the private sector and the public sector.

Most recently, Mr. Feldhaus negotiated a $640 million GMP contract for LA County’s first ever CMAR project – the Hall of Administration Seismic Retrofit project. This was a complex project to install a base isolation seismic retrofit system at the foundation level of a 1M-sq.-ft. office building that is to remain occupied during construction. The pre-construction phase took 18 months and the GMP negotiation lasted several months as we worked with the CMAR to refine their schedule and sequencing, right-size the scope of work, lock-in pricing for long lead items like the isolators, and utilize locally sourced, readily available materials for the project. The ultimate result of this value engineering effort reduced $60M from the project budget.

We will apply the same systematic approach and methodology to this project to ensure the City obtains the best value for the project and our community.

cumming-group.com Page 670 of 1021 32 City of Hermosa Beach | City Yard Project Cumming Group managed the planning, design, permitting, bidding, construction, and closeout phases for renovations to multiple LA County Public Works Maintenance Yard facilities as part of the $750M Facilities Reinvestment Program (FRP) that provided prioritized capital improvement renovation projects at existing County-owned facilities. All projects were executed using Job Order Contracting (JOC).

The scope of work at each facility varied, but mostly included the following renovations and upgrades:
• Roofing replacements
• HVAC and electrical upgrades
• ADA upgrades at restrooms, entrances, and parking lots • Entry/security gate replacements
• Paint spray booth replacements (required extensive AQMD coordination) • Generator replacements (required extensive AQMD coordination) • Interior renovations to office/maintenance buildings including minor interior wall reconfigurations, new furniture, painting, and flooring replacements.

Each renovation had to be carefully coordinated while operations continued on site during each renovation. Cumming Group assisted with move management, phasing/planning, scheduling, and FF&E coordination. New AQMD regulations for generators and spray booths were enacted just prior to the construction phase and Cumming Group was able to advise the client to meet the new regulations without exceeding the original budget.

cumming-group.com Page 671 of 1021 33 City of Hermosa Beach | City Yard Project Cumming Group led a team of evaluators analyzing the existing Southern Youth Correctional Reception Center and Clinic (SYCRCC) facility in Norwalk.

At the time of our contract, the site was owned by The State of California and had been determined to be excess property and was available for purchase and/or ground lease for development. The facility was formerly operated as a youth detention facility, which was officially closed in the Fall of 2011. The County of Los Angeles Probation Department considered the purchase of this property to facilitate employee training and consolidate other departmental administrative functions.

The facility currently contains approximately 31 buildings over 32-acres. The facility consists of a series of single-story buildings in a gated, secure campus arranged around central recreational courts and lawns. The site also includes additional outbuildings such as storage facilities and single- family residences that were previously occupied by staff. The campus was developed in various phases since 1954 including the construction of cell complexes, classrooms, dining and recreational facilities, a health clinic, maintenance, warehouse facilities, gymnasium, pool, and administrative offices. The original buildings typically have a concrete slab-on-grade, double-wythe clay brick walls, and a concrete roof diaphragm.

The objective of the study was to evaluate the existing buildings/facilities and infrastructure for potential future use as a County training facility for trainees and existing Probation Officers. The facility was evaluated for a 30-year useful life and the study included additional project alternatives for development.

The report included conclusions about the viability of the property for the intended use, recommendations on maintenance and repairs, improvements necessary to meet the objectives, and an opinion of probable costs.

NOTE: Cumming Group was selected in October 2025 by the City of Norwalk to mange the demolition and redevelopment of this project site.

cumming-group.com Page 673 of 1021 35 City of Hermosa Beach | City Yard Project Cumming Group is providing project and construction management services for the $2.7-billion master planning, redevelopment, and construction of the Rancho Los Amigos campus. On an existing 200+ acre campus, the development consists of 5M sq. ft. of medical, county office, commercial office, retail, restaurant, hotel, and parking, as well as new infrastructure.

Rancho Los Amigos South Campus
Cumming Group managed the full remediation and removal of 105 structures across 70+ acres, along with stabilization efforts for two historic buildings and recycling of over 1,200 pallets of bricks. The project required the development of dozens of Procedure 5 work plans, which underwent rigorous review by the South Coast Air Quality Management District. All structures underwent thorough remediation and were subsequently demolished.

Notably, the historic power plant’s stabilization process included lifting the cooling tower off the roof and implementing extensive shoring for support. The Casa Consuelo historic building was also stabilized, and a new roof was installed with proper drainage. The project was completed ahead of schedule, achieving a commendable record of zero safety incidents or environmental impacts.

The demolition of the campus made way for the first redevelopment project on the South Campus, the $468 million new ISD and Probation Department headquarters. The project will create vitally needed new facilities for various County departments located in aging and costly buildings throughout the County. The renovated campus will respect the property’s history and provide a high-quality work environment for County staff. The proposed project will be designed to achieve LEED Gold certification or better.

cumming-group.com Page 674 of 1021 36 City of Hermosa Beach | City Yard Project The Helen Keller Park Community Building project included demolition of an outdated facility constructed with hazardous materials. A 4,000-sq.-ft. LEED Gold-Certified state-of-the-art building was erected in its place, with 90% of the original building materials being recycled or reused. The new structure utilizes CMU and light-frame construction, and the facility includes a computer training room with 16 computer stations, a multi-purpose room, an outdoor patio with a recycled wood trellis, and a community room with an adjacent catering kitchen.

Helen Keller Park Landfill Remediation
The Helen Keller Park Remediation project arose from the discovery of buried lead- and asbestos-containing construction debris during the construction of the new Community Center. The scope of work included demolition of existing park amenities and environmental site remediation. General improvements included a new parking lot, a new playground and exercise equipment, and a new baseball field. Multiple biofiltration basins were constructed, along with irrigation, for the replaced landscaping. The remediation scope of work for the 6.6-acre park included removing the top 12” of soil and relocating it to the baseball field, which was surrounded by a retaining wall to contain the contaminated soil. The soil cover plan then required two layers of a fabric barrier with 12” of clean fill on top. The plan’s purpose was to reduce the risk of park users’ contact with the waste material and to reduce infiltration into the waste. This project required the management of various specialized contracts, including full-time environmental monitoring and environmental remediation consultants, as well as a general contractor with specialized training based on the Air Quality Management District’s Procedure 5 requirements.

Management included additional coordination with other jurisdictional agencies, including the State Regional Water Quality Control Board, Los Angeles County Public Health, and the Los Angeles County Environmental Programs Division. The team also participated in numerous community meetings to provide information on the hazardous remediation efforts.

cumming-group.com Page 675 of 1021 37 City of Hermosa Beach | City Yard Project Cumming Group has, on behalf of the County of Los Angeles Chief Executive Office, been leading or co-managing the redevelopment of General Hospital and West Campus since 2018. Cumming Group is a subject-matter expert regarding this iconic County-owned historic asset and has been advising the County on redevelopment analysis, market analysis, community engagement, and financial feasibility for multiple development scenarios. Cumming Group also remains active in community engagement by reviewing community engagement materials, messaging, and attending community engagement meetings, and providing expertise and experience to the developer team.

Cumming Group represents the CEO in the developer’s Master Plan development process, ensuring County and community equities are represented and reviewing all sources, uses, costs, funding sources, and proformas to ensure financial feasibility. Multiple challenges face the redevelopment of the General Hospital and portions of West Campus. The General Hospital requires significant investment in environmental remediation, seismic and structural retrofits, and complete infrastructure replacement. Many of the structures on West Campus are old, underutilized, and in need of demolition. The West Central Plant and other utilities on the campus are old, inefficient, and support adjacent additional county-owned sites. Most of the campus utility configuration needs to be replaced and updated with modern utility plants and tie-ins.

Lastly, there is a significant grade change between portions of the campus, creating challenges in connectivity, mobility, and pedestrian access. Cumming Group’s renowned cost group will be advising the County on means to reduce project implementation costs and right-size the infrastructure investments for the planned development.

cumming-group.com Page 676 of 1021 38 City of Hermosa Beach | City Yard Project The Hall of Justice was constructed in 1925 as a steel-frame structure encased in concrete, with concrete floor slabs, granite exterior veneer, and hollow clay tile interior partitions. The building consisted of 14 floors, including a basement and a roof level penthouse. The program included Class-A office space for the Sheriff’s Department, Coroner, District Attorney, Public Defender, and Tax Collector.

The 1994 Northridge earthquake forced the building to close its doors considering the significant damage. The Repair and Reuse project consisted of several phases of work, including debris removal, non-structural demolition, structural demolition, seismic retrofit work, the removal of two floors, the addition of shotcrete walls, and other seismic upgrades throughout the building.

The Beaux Arts exterior was restored along with other character-defining historical elements, including the impressive loggia, communicating stairs, corridors, a law library and a courtroom. The historic fabric of the elevator lobbies was maintained but was retrofitted with a new Destination Dispatch elevator technology. Public elements of the building include the restored loggia, Hall of Justice Interpretive Center, and cafeteria.

Neighboring the Hall of Justice is a new 1,000-car garage. The architectural precast and metal panel exterior live harmoniously with the facade of the main building by evoking the sense of place and time in which it is historically associated.

The interweaving of rehabilitated historic material, modern tenant improvements to the building, the addition of a parking structure, and pleasing and appropriate site improvements help to further enhance the urban environment of downtown Los Angeles

cumming-group.com Page 677 of 1021 39 City of Hermosa Beach | City Yard Project Cumming Group provided Owner’s Representative Project Management and Project Controls services for the $680M seismic retrofit of the Kenneth Hahn Hall of Administration (HOA) building in the City of Los Angeles. The existing building was designed and constructed in the late 1950s and is an 8-story structural steel and poured-in place concrete structure with a basement, a subbasement, and mechanical penthouse. The building gross floor area is approximately 1M sq. ft. and is the seat of the government of the County of Los Angeles.

The project was meant to utilize a base isolation retrofit technique, utilizing a phased and multi-shift construction approach, with the building to be occupied during construction. The base isolation would require a “moat” to be developed at ground level with flexible joints to allow an unrestricted range of motion at all utility connections servicing the building. Areas of intense interior work will require some tenants to be relocated to other parts of the building or to an alternate building location. When complete, the retrofitted building would meet an Enhanced Seismic Performance Objective to allow for immediate occupancy after a BSE-1E to BSE-2E level seismic event.

The project used the County’s first ever Construction Manager At-Risk (CMAR) delivery method. Cumming Group assisted the County with the development of their CMAR contract documents and policies. Cumming Group also provided design management, value engineering, phasing recommendations, interior design feasibility studies, code analysis, interim exiting planning, internal and external community outreach, and move management.

The project was canceled following the completion of the pre-construction phase due to the County’s master plan efforts of the downtown civic center and their subsequent purchase of the Gas Company Tower building in 2024. The A/E team and CMAR were successfully off-ramped at the completion of the preconstruction phase.

5.5 – FIRM FACILITIES TO SUPPORT THE PROJECT
Our South Bay/Hermosa Beach office will service this project. This is our community and we are grateful to be able to support the City where we live and work. Our office is located about a 10-minute walk to the main project site at 555 6th Street, and within a few minutes from the other two yard locations at 1110 6th Street and 530 4th Street. The lead Project Manager, Matthew Feldhaus, is based out of this Hermosa Beach office and 25 additional project management and construction support staff are available from this location.

In addition to the staff located out of the Hermosa Beach office, Cumming Group has 375 team members located in Southern California across four other office providing a wide array of Owner’s Representative Project Management and Construction support services. These resources and close proximity to the project sites ensures that any service that may be required during this project will be readily available.

The firm’s experience in monitoring a project schedule.

5.6 – EXPERIENCE MONITORING A PROJECT SCHEDULE
Understanding the Contract terms and applying advanced scheduling techniques is key to minimizing schedule impacts. Too often time extensions and damages are assessed based on simplistic measures, such as robotically using the total duration of a delay for granting the number of days for a time extension. Our team of construction managers and scheduling professionals are adept at considering all influences on the project and its schedule to address the delay using a Critical Path Method (CPM) analysis. The CPM’s ability to accurately represent living, growing projects is what makes it ideal for determining how an event may potentially impact project completion. Our team of scheduling professionals will perform the following tasks to minimize schedule impacts for the project:
• Assist the City to build a master schedule for the project that identifies completion dates for various activities. • Review and approve the contractor’s task-level baseline project schedule prior to executing the GMP contract. • Review and analyze the contractor’s updates to the baseline schedule on a monthly basis with the submittal of the pay application.
• Require the contractor to submit a time-impact analysis whenever requesting a change to the schedule. • Identify and classify the schedule change according to the contract:
– Excusable, Non-compensable Delay
– Excusable, Compensable Delay
– Non-Excusable, Non-Compensable Delay
– Non-Excusable, Compensable Delays
• Request a recovery schedule from the contractor when the contractor has been identified as the cause for delay • Enforce the liquidated damages clause of the contract when the contractor is causing a delay Cumming Group

5.7 – BIM OVERVIEW
Cumming Group has embraced the advantages of Building
Information Modeling (BIM) technology to design and produce complex buildings and building systems, and to facilitate and coordinate our work during construction. The integration of building systems and clash detection has revolutionized the design process. We embrace this technological advancement, as well as the incorporation of other newer technologies like cloud storage, Bluebeam Revu, and the use of mobile devices and tablets to facilitate collaboration and speed up response times.

Using BIM technology, the designers will create three
dimensional images for the project team as well as user groups to better understand the design solutions. BIM technology also allows for improved quality control of the building documents by performing clash detections to prevent accidental oversights such as placing ductwork where structural beams exist. This software helps the coordination between disciplines and greatly reduces the number of errors and omissions that result in costly change orders.

In certain cases where the maintenance program is
sophisticated, we would recommend a 4-D or 5-D BIM model that allows for Critical Path Method (CPM) scheduling, supply chain management, cost estimating, risk management, and interoperability with other maintenance software.

Our role in this process is to ensure that the contract documents and the project specifications are properly written to provide the desired outcomes for the BIM model. We also have technical staff available to monitor and review the BIM files to ensure the drawings are layered properly according to developed BIM standards. Our staff can use the clash detection feature during the DD and CD phases to determine areas of potential conflict, especially in complex programs where there may be several contractors and consultants working independently to deliver projects.

5.8 – RECOMMENDED PROJECT MANAGEMENT

INFORMATION SYSTEMS
Cumming Group has a long history of providing management of project controls systems for large public agencies since our inception in 1996. We have used most of the PMIS systems out there and some are more effective than other given the size and complexity of the project. We are currently utilizing multiple systems including Procore, eBuilder, Prologix, ACC Build, EcoSys, Ingenious Build, Join, Asite, etc. While Cumming Group is agnostic on the PMIS used on most projects because our team is well-versed on multiple platforms, we are able to provide Procore on this project at no additional cost to the City.

Cumming Group has a national agreement with Procore to help support our programs and projects and it is available for this project, should the City elect to use it.

We can also leverage our in-house construction specialist Data Analytics team for the development of custom tools and dashboards tailored to the City’s needs. In addition to customizing project cost, budget, schedule, and asset management reporting to meet client and end user needs, our data scientists are exploring ways to integrate AI and advanced technology to streamline processes, improve accuracy, and enhance overall project outcomes.

These tools help streamline project management by integrating various software platforms (like Procore and Bluebeam) into one cohesive system, facilitating smoother collaboration and communication. With all of our tools in one location, we keep everything organized, track project milestones, allocate resources, and manage documents all in one place. This system ensures that everyone involved has quick access to critical project information, promoting transparency and enabling smarter decision-making throughout the project life cycle.

cumming-group.com Page 683 of 1021 45 City of Hermosa Beach | City Yard Project The firm’s ability to provide estimating, value engineering, and assistance with managing budgets.

5.9 – ABILITY TO PROVIDE ESTIMATING, VALUE

ENGINEERING, AND BUDGET MANAGEMENT
Cumming Group started in 1996 as a cost estimating firm and today has grown into the largest owner’s representative PMCM cost estimating firm in the country. Cost estimating and cost planning provide the framework for predictability, cost control, and risk management throughout the lifecycle of a project. A proper cost estimating and cost planning framework, irrespective of project value and/or project complexity, helps to ensure a project is delivered on time, on budget, and at the highest quality with the lowest risk. Should it be requested, we are able to leverage Cumming Group’s world-renowned
cost estimating and cost analytics team to plug-in your entire program costs to predict contract capacity shortages, local targeted worker labor shortages, cashflow projections, and fiscal year-end spending acceleration for City Management.

In addition to understanding supply and demand market
conditions for labor and construction materials, our cost estimating services include the evaluation of project elements before drawings are complete. Our years of experience and extensive portfolio of projects provides us with the knowledge and insight to offer the City confidence in the cost management process and to deliver value.

Our approach to construction cost estimating is guided by three principles:

1. Anticipating costs by understanding the building program, risk, and the design development process.

2. Forecasting future costs, market conditions, and risk.

3. Communicating with a report format that is understood by people with varying degrees of familiarity with design and construction.

Our team’s programming and building systems cost model
estimates will be prepared at the conceptual and programming phases. Expanded estimate details and formats will be provided at design milestone phases. Construction estimates will include itemized quantities, units of measure, unit costs, and total dollar value for each line item and shall be coded following the CSI format (Uniformat can be preferred for early scoping budgets on design-build, CMAR, and P3 project deliveries).

Estimates will be formatted to allow development and transfer into a schedule of values and resource loaded construction schedule. Estimates for general contractor costs will be based on construction duration and project specific staffing and general requirements.

General contractor costs for fees, bonds, and insurances shall be itemized separately. The construction estimate will include cost escalation calculated to the mid-point of construction. Our thorough understanding of City soft costs, including consultant fees, jurisdiction review fees, inspection fees, contract administration fees, project technical support fees, contract compliance costs, and City project management costs, ensures that project budgets will be right-sized.

Estimate reports will include a level of detail to facilitate an understanding of project construction costs and risk. Estimates of construction cost will be reconciled with available budgets and independent estimates at each submittal phase.

Construction Market Studies
Identifying the key current market conditions in the project location and economic drivers are an important factor in providing an accurate estimate. Our in-house economist
constantly studies the market and keeps Cumming up to date on drivers affecting the construction industry locally, as well as macroeconomic factors that impact construction regionally and nationally.

We publish a quarterly economic newsletter (Cumming Insights) to keep all team members informed on current cost drivers.

At the start of every project, we prepare a local market report where we research the local construction market to gain insight on what is driving prices in that market. By studying the local construction market and upcoming work forecasts for the region, we are able to determine how busy the market STEP (Standardized Target Estimating Process) Timeline
cumming-group.com Page 684 of 1021 46 City of Hermosa Beach | City Yard Project (ultimately, the subcontractor base) is and how that will impact both labor and material resources for any given market. We identify contractor resources available for the project, study the ability of the available labor pool to perform the work, and determine where outside labor will come from if required.

In addition to local factors, Cumming Group currently tracks key national and regional trends on a monthly basis, including the U.S. dollar exchange rate, cost of energy, global demand, key material prices, construction volume, and labor availability.

This information is published in a monthly economic report and applied to current crew-based databases. Cumming Group has developed a crew-based database that utilizes current local labor rates, labor productivity issues, workers compensation rates, sales tax, subcontractor’s mark-ups, and material pricing.

We realize that every project is unique and requires special consideration. In addition, when current events impact the construction industry, our team will research the dynamics of that impact to determine the cost considerations for your projects.

Cutting Edge Tools and Techniques
Cumming Group’s cost management team is skilled in the
use of a variety of industry software and quantity analysis platforms which assist them in the preparation of cost models, and also to generate detailed, accurate and traceable quantity measurements.

We use electronic tools to support our estimates with
illustrations and graphics to visually confirm scope included (or excluded) from estimates and other key breakouts. We don’t expect our clients and design team to read through each page of our comprehensive estimates, so we use effective summaries and charts to visually show information at a
glance. Representative electronic tools include On-Screen Takeoff (OST), CostX, and REVIT model quantity extraction for BIM. Additionally, Cumming Group can provide clients with planning and scheduling services for all project phases, from development and pre-design through construction
closeout. Cumming Group also embraces technology where
we are convinced it adds value to our clients such as the BIM Revolution. We have experts who use specialist software such as REVIT, and who have sat with architects to discuss means of ensuring that the estimator can use the tools to confidently, quickly and accurately extract information.

We are not constrained by the limitations of packaged
estimating software – our clients’ needs are so varied and diverse that we use Excel to create a customized estimate for each client. We will adapt to your financial chart of accounts.

Value Engineering
More than a mere cost-reducing exercise, value engineering can provide owners with alternatives to the designed systems that may prove more cost effective, easier to use, and more sustainable. Because of this, we strongly recommend employing Value Engineering practices throughout the project. Our team does not see Value Engineering as a one-time event, but a strategy that is employed throughout the entire design process. While Value Engineering can be, and often is, provided as a standalone service, it is even more cost effective when performed in conjunction with our cost estimating services.

When the estimators are working on the project estimates, they will already be familiar with the project, the costs, and areas of concern. In essence, the Value Engineering reviewer will not be coming in cold and is able to provide Value Engineering services “in real time” as we concurrently estimate the project.

Change Management
Utilizing our expertise in various PMIS systems, we will keep tight control over all contract changes as they occur - whether it is a consultant contract, construction contract, or any other service provider contract. We try to minimize the need for change orders through scope management to prevent scope creep, and through quality assurance/quality control of the bidding documents. If changes are needed, we first confirm the contractor is entitled to a change and then estimate its value given the current job conditions.

Identify and Track Changes to the Work and Schedule
We will first provide an opinion of merit and then assign a change reason (unforeseen condition, errors and omissions, tenant requested change, code change, etc.). These potential change items will be tracked on a change log maintained by the Project Manager. We will include these change items along with anticipated future change items on an exposure log to most accurately depict the potential project budget status at any given time. The change log and exposure log will be uploaded to the project management controls system and be available at any time to the project team.

Prepare and Submit Change Orders in the City’s Format
Once the change is validated and negotiated with the
Contractor, our team will provide a recommendation for change approval to the City. We will make sure that the person with the correct signature authority reviews and signs off on the change. We will enter the change utilizing the City approved forms and format and deliver a final change packet containing the change order and all relevant backup information including the schedule with any potential impacts, the change order log indicating amount of total changes and remaining budget, all change proposals including negotiations and notes, and a lessons learned document that will be added to the issues and lessons learned database.

5.11 – HISTORY OF COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL,

STATE, AND LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS
As discussed earlier, Cumming Group has extensive experience dealing with CEQA, NEPA, AQMD, and RWQCB to successfully complete projects with complex environmental issues. In addition to our experience dealing with these laws and
regulations, Cumming Group is a leader at requiring their staff complete OSHA-10 and OSHA 30-hour training to make for
better and safer workplaces and construction sites.

From a corporate standpoint, there are no current compliance issues with any Federal, State, or Local laws and regulations.

Cumming Group is in good standing with the California
Secretary of State and has no history of compliance issues at any level of government.

The firm’s experience and familiarity with the governmental and quasi- governmental entities that will have jurisdiction over the Project and their requirements.

5.12 – FAMILIARITY WITH AUTHORITIES HAVING

JURISDICTION
Understanding the role of the other government agencies having jurisdiction over a project is critical in the selection of the project delivery method. This is critical to minimizing the schedule impacts to a project. Cumming Group has coordinated projects with the gamut of County, City, State, and Federal jurisdictions.

Cumming Group is adept at coordinating large and small
projects with various other local jurisdictions and stakeholders.

We have managed projects for local agencies that have required coordination with the following jurisdictions: South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) for the installation of generators at Public Works’ maintenance yards and multiple demolition and abatement projects; the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) for the groundwater monitoring of former Leaking Underground Storage Tanks
at Rancho Los Amigos South Campus; County of Los Angeles Public Health (DPH) for the construction of swimming pools and kitchen projects at Stoneview Nature Center and the Hall of Justice Cafeteria; California Department of Transit (DOT) for the installation of various modular buildings; FEMA/CalEMA for the Eaton Fire recovery at several County Parks and Recreation facilities; and the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) and the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) for work at prisons and juvenile detention facilities. We have experience with most local jurisdictional agencies and professional relationships with dozens of other specialty jurisdictions that have jurisdiction over Southern California projects.

With the numerous collaboration efforts Cumming Group has with these agencies, we will be a strong advocate for the City on this project.
