RE: Traffic Forecast Volumes Methodology - Measure R Program Interchanges Dear Marissa,
As we have discussed over the past few months, we propose to use the Traffic Forecast Model developed for the NW138 project (being completed by LA Metro) for the City of Lancaster (City) Measure R Program Interchange Projects. This model was created to develop a more comprehensive and integrated traffic demand forecast model for this northern most portion of the County. This required an integrated modeling approach with the latest version of the SCAG regional model (SCAG 2012 V6.1) as the foundation for the modeling process along with portion of the Kern Council of Governments (Kern COG) model.

After meeting and discussing the use of this model with the City, we plan to move forward with this approach to develop the forecast volumes for study purposes for the City's SR-138 interchange projects. We plan to provide the forecast volumes to the consultant teams for their use in their studies of the individual interchanges. This program wide approach will provide efficencies and a consistent approach to the forecast volumes in the corridor. We will work with Caltrans to gain approval of these forecast volumes at the onset of the program in order to reduce the repetition of completing these forecast volumes for each individual project, thus reducing the required submittals, reviews and approvals by Caltrans.

As we developed this specific approach to tailor the model for the purpose of providing forecast volumes for the City's interchange projects, it became apparent that a broader look at the local roadway network is also needed to plan and provide guidance for future improvements on the adjacent roadway network as well as at the interchanges. The City expressed interested in establishing this modeling approach for use in analyzing various improvement scenarios moving forward.

In an effort to define the process and the tasks necessary to complete this effort, we have worked closely with Fehr and Peers (who helped to develop the integrated model for use for the NW138 project) to further refine and develop a tool that can be used for this broader purpose of studying a significant portion of the City roadway network.

As with most tools, we need to establish the basics on what the tool will be used for and what investment is deemed appropriate for this effort. In an attempt to provide a comprehensive approach for the broader study area and provide options and create a tool for use in the future, we have asked kimley-horn.com. G60 South Fiqueroa Street. Suite 1040, Los Angeles. CA 90017 213 261 4040 Kimley» Horn Page 2
Fehr and Peers to help us develop our approach for refining the model for the City of Lancaster Measure R Program goals.

In anticipation of needing traffic count data (existing AM and PM peak hour intersection turning movements), and with City concurrence, we were able to obtain comprehensive study area wide count data prior to school being released for the summer 2014. This traffic data will be critical to being able to calibrate the existing conditions model prior to generating the forecast volumes.

A summary of the Count data collected includes:
1) Original counts completed on May 15, 2014 at City interchange ramp termini at Ave G, H, I, J, J-8, K, L, and M. These AM/PM peak hour turning count movements were completed for a total of $3,960.
2) Additional counts completed on June 3'd and 4' at 36 additional intersections as coordinated and agreed to by the City for an additional $8,910.

With the count data collected we are ready to move forward with the modeling effort once the City provides direction on the level of development wanted and needed.

The attached proposal letter provided by Fehr and Peers describes a range of options that can be considered depending on how far the City wants to develop this tool for future use. There are significant advantages to the City and the Measure R Program in developing this tool for the purposes stated.

Tasks 1, 2A and 4 are recommended to provide the future forecasts volumes for use in the near term interchange improvement projects as they move forward
Task 1 - Lancaster Model Refinements $13,200
• Task 2A - Future Traffic Forecasts $44,000
• Task 4 - Model and Forecast Report $8,800
Tasks 2B, 2C and 3 are optional tasks that will provide a more comprehensive planning tool and evaluation of priorities, needs and phasing of future roadway improvements for the City. • Task 2B - Traffic Operations Analysis for Transportation Needs Assessment, has options presented for evaluating future roadway segment and intersection improvements. This option is presented to provide a broader tool for evaluating future improvement performance. The Costs range from $37,400 to $55,000.
• Task 2C - Project Priorities & Phasing for Transportation Needs Assessment has similar options for evaluating both roadway and intersection improvement sensitivity testing to determine the ultimate need for future transportation improvements and assist in the phasing of interchange and roadway capacity improvements. The costs range from $44,000 to $57,200.
• Task 3 - Interchange Forecasts, allows the forecasts volumes to be updated at the interchanges based upon the future roadway network as determined in tasks 2B and 2C.

Travel Demand Forecasting Approach
Introduction: We are proposing to apply a systematic approach to develop traffic forecasts for the planned interchange improvements along the SR-14 corridor and major City arterials using the latest travel model developed for the area. Applying a uniformed approach to generating traffic forecasts will ensure consistency between the future forecast projections and allow the City to test the priority and phasing of improvements.

Forecasting Approach: We will utilize the travel demand forecasting (TDF) model that was recently completed for the SR-138 corridor study to develop future forecasts.

Sub-Area Model: The sub-area model is built upon the latest version of the Southern Californla Association of Governments (SCAG) 2012 RTP/SCS regional model. The model includes the northern portion of LA County, including the Cities of Lancaster, Palmdale and Santa Clarita. The sub-area model also includes the southern portion of Kern County as contained in the latest version of the KernCOG model. The extents of the model are shown below.

Sub-Area Model Boundaries
Scope of Work
Task 1 - Lancaster Model Refinements
We will meet with City of Lancaster staff to share the land use growth and roadway network assumptions contained in the sub-area model. As part of the sub-area model development, we received land use growth for Lancaster from the City. We will review these growth assumptions by TAZ with a detailed focus around the interchange locations and 8 east-west arterials providing access to the SR-14 mainline,
including the intersections shown
in the figure below.

Additional land use refinements
will be completed, as needed, to
ensure the model reflects the
future growth forecasts in the City. ...*

In addition, we will review the
transportation network
assumptions under both the base 66.
year and future year versions of the
Air!
model and confirm with City staff
that the model reflects the existing
and future planned roadway
networks.

Recent traffic counts collected by
the City will be used to compare
the base year model forecasts to
actual counts.

City Staff; Land Use by TAZ and
Roadway Network plots for the
base year and future year sub-area Coberble War

Study Locations for Proposed Scope of Work
Task 2 - Transportation Needs Assessment
This task will provide traffic forecasts for use in conducting a transportation needs assessment for the City of Lancaster along the SR-14 corridor and adjacent arterials. This task is seen as the first tep in developing future forecasts to be applied in the upcoming SR-14 interchange studies. Th goal of this task is to provide the City with an overall assessment of future transportation needs it the study area.

Task 2A - Traffic Forecasts for Transportation Needs Assessment The sub-area model will be used to produce future traffic forecasts for the study locations shown in the figure above:
16 ramp terminal intersections (including on/off-ramp volumes) 36 arterial intersections
SR-14 mainline segments within the City limits
The sub-area model reflects a future forecast year of 2035. Forecasts beyond 2035 (e.g., 2040), or for interim years (e.g., 2020), can be developed by applying a linear growth factor between the existing and future model forecasts. For this initial transportation needs assessment, we recommend developing and applying the 2035 traffic forecasts from the sub-area model. Existing traffic counts based on the recent data collection effort will be used to develop turning movement volumes at each of the study locations based on the growth in volumes between the base and future year models (commonly referred to as the "difference method" in travel demand forecasting).

Future traffic forecasts will be developed for the following periods:

AM peak hour turning movements at study intersections
PM peak hour tuming movements at study intersections
Peak Hour & Daily mainline segments for SR-14 within the City limits Daily roadway volumes for the 8 east-west arterials providing access to the SR-14 Deliverable: Technical Memorandum presenting future year forecasts for the 52 study intersections during the AM and PM peak hours, SR-14 mainline forecasts, and daily roadway segment forecasts for review by City staff.

Cost Estimate: $40,000
Task 2B - Traffic Operations Analysis for Transportation Needs Assessment The purpose of this sub-task is to apply the future traffic forecasts to an operational analysis tool to determine the need and priority of future transportation improvements at the study intersections and along the study corridors. We have developed two potential approaches for this task to provide the City with a range of options depending on the level of detail desired.

NOT INCLUDED IN ADDITIONAL AUTHORIZATION NO. 1
NOT INCLUDED IN ADDITIONAL AUTHORIZATION NO. 1:

Option 1: Roadway Segment Evaluation
We will use the traffic forecasts developed in Task 2A to conduct a roadway segment evaluation.

The roadway segments would consist of the 8 east-west arterials providing access to the SR-14 onducted as follows
AM and PM peak hour roadway traffic forecasts would be compared to the roadway segment capacity and freeway mainline capacity.

A volume-to-capacity (V/C) ratio would be calculated to estimate the future traffic operations along the corridor based on the number of travel lanes.

The V/C results would be used to determine the future roadway sizing needs; for example, do the future volumes result in the need for a 2-lane, 4-lane, or 6-lane roadway; or additional freeway capacity?
The three steps above would also be applied to the existing traffic volumes and current roadway capacity for use in the comparison of existing conditions to projected future operations.

This option would provide the City with a high-level needs assessment of roadway and freeway mainline sizing based on corridor volumes. It would not provide detail at the intersection level.

In addition, the need to widen a roadway is often a result of key bottlenecks along a corridor.

These bottlenecks tend to occur at major intersection locations. Therefore, although the arterial volumes along may not warrant the need to widen a roadway, intersection capacity constraints may indicate that roadway widening is needed as congestion levels increase.

Option 2: Intersection Evaluation
This option is provided to address the limitations
described under Option 1 above. Under Option 2,
we would conduct a detailed traffic operations
analysis using the Synchro software program (a
sample Synchro network is shown in the adjacent
figure). The program would be linked to the
forecasts prepared with the travel demand model
and used to test future operations, as well as
operational improvements. The analysis would be
conducted as follows:

AM and PM peak hour turning movement
forecasts would be analyzed for the 36
arterial intersections and 16 ramp terminal
intersections based on the Highway
Sample Synchro Network for Operational Analysis
NOT INCLUDED IN ADDITIONAL AUTHORIZATION NO. 1
Capacity Manual (HCM) methodology. The HCM measures the average vehicle delay for each turning movement at an intersection, and provides delay thresholds for LOS results for both unsignalized and signalized locations.

LOS would be calculated to estimate the future traffic operations along the corridor based on the umber of travel lanes and intersection configurations. For the freeway mainline, LOS would be based on the methodology outlined in Option 1 (future forecasts compared to mainline capacity) The LOS results would be used to determine the future roadway and intersection improvements needed to accommodate future growth; for example, do the future volumes result in the need for a 2-lane, 4-lane, or 6-lane roadway?: intersection turn lane or side-street capacity improvements?; or additional freeway capacity?
The three steps above would also be applied to the existing traffic volumes and current intersection configurations for use in the comparison of existing conditions to projected future operations.

This option would provide the City with the roadway sizing results outlined in Option 1 and would provide a more detailed analysis of key intersections in the study area. In addition, the Synchro software can be used to identify key bottlenecks along a corridor that may lead to the need for additional roadway widening.

The Synchro network can be utilized by City staff, and made available for use in future City infrastructure and land development projects, such as the SR-14 interchange studies. Synchro also has a built-in simulation tool, called Simtraffic, which can be used to simulate vehicle flows along corridors and through intersections to determine vehicle queuing and storage requirements, and used to test innovative intersection treatment options, such as roundabouts.

While the above future needs assessment is intended to provide the City with the roadway capacity needs based on future growth projections, we can also help the City balance roadway capacity needs with the desire for a Complete Streets network. Widening along roadways or specific intersections envisioned as key pedestrian crossings and bicycle access locations may not be desirable by the City, and alternative capacity improvements can be explored.

Deliverable for Option 1 or Option 2: Technical Memorandum presenting existing and future raffic operations within the study area (roadway operations under Option 1 and roadway plus ntersection operations under Option 2). Meeting with City staff to review the results and discus need for testing of potential transportation network improvements as outlined in Task 3.

Cost Estimate: Option 1 = $34,000 or Option 2 = $50,000 Task 2C - Project Priorities & Phasing for Transportation Needs Assessment The sub-area model can be used to conduct sensitivity testing to determine the ultimate need for future transportation improvements and assist in the phasing of interchange and roadway capacity improvements. Based on the results of Task 2B, we will work with the City to determine NOT INCLUDED IN ADDITIONAL AUTHORIZATION NO. 1
additional model runs needed to test the benefits of changes to the transportation network. The model runs can be used to measure the benefits of:

New roadway connections
Arterial roadway widening
sher ang improvemen ents
his task can be also be used to test the timing for partial and full buildout of interchang nprovements and to determine the priority of overall interchange improvements along the SR 14 corridor. For the purpose of the cost estimate, the scope of work assumes that up 5 model Future traffic forecasts will be developed in the immediate vicinity of the roadway network changes being tested; the model will be used to determine the % change in traffic forecasts within the study area and detailed forecasts will only be developed for those locations within the influence area (i.e., locations where a noticeable change has occurred).

Future traffic operations will be calculated for roadway and freeway mainline segments (if Option 1 above is selected) or for intersection and mainline segments (if Option 2 is selected) in the immediate vicinity of the roadway network changes being tested.

Graphics showing changes in traffic flows and traffic operations will be prepared to help the City determine the benefits of various transportation network improvements tested through the model runs (up to 5 scenarios).

We will use the results of the above transportation network testing to help the City determine the need and priority for future roadway improvements. We recommend saving the final (5) model run to complete future forecasts for the preferred roadway network scenario. This final model run can be used to develop the interchange forecasts for use in the upcoming SR-14 interchange studies as documented under Task 3 below.

Deliverable: Graphics and/or tables summarizing the changes in traffic patterns, future volume forecasts and traffic operations for up to 5 future transportation network scenarios (up to 5 model runs).

Cost Estimate: Option 1 = $40,000 or Option 2 = $52,000 Task 3 - Interchange Forecasts
Once the future roadway network is determined under Task 2, we will develop final traffic forecasts for each of the five interchanges along SR-14 for the following scenarios:

Design Year (e.g., 2040) AM and PM peak hours and Average Daily Traffic (ADT) Construction Year (e.g., 2020) AM and PM peak hours and ADT NOT INCLUDED IN ADDITIONAL AUTHORIZATION NO. 1-
The design and construction horizon years will be confirmed with the project team prior to the development of future forecasts. The sub-area model reflects a future forecast year of 2035.

Forecasts beyond 2035 (e.g., 2040), or for interim years (e.g., 2020), can be developed by applying a linear growth factor between the existing and future model forecasts. The traffic forecasts will be reported for the SR-14 mainline, on- and off-ramps, and turning movements at the ramp Deliverable: Technical Memorandum presenting design and construction year forecasts for each of the five interchanges for the AM and PM peak hours along with ADT for review by City staff.

Cost Estimate: $2,500 per interchange ($10,000 total for the 5 interchanges) Task 4 - Documentation
A Model Development Report will be prepared to reflect the final deliverables produced under Tasks 1-3 above. The Model Development Report will document the sub-area model assumptions, including the land use growth, roadway network, and model calibration within the area encompassing the five interchanges in the City of Lancaster. The report will also contain the traffic forecasts for the planned interchanges along the SR-14 corridor. This report can be used for the Caltrans review and approval process for each interchange project.

RE: Drainage Master Study (revised) - Measure R Program Interchanges Dear Marissa,
As requested, Penfield and Smith updated their proposal to include the optional services as outlined in their attached proposal. The attached proposal for completion of a Master Drainage Study for the City of Lancaster (City) Measure R Program Interchange Projects now includes optional services to expand the study to consider build out, if requested by the City. This study will address existing hydrology data for the SR-14 corridor and adjacent areas. This study is intended to provide the baseline drainage information for the corridor so that the study does not need to be replicated for each specific interchange project.

The information will be provided to each interchange design team so that existing flows wi!l be determined by the City on the front end and not have to be confirmed with each interchange project.

This program wide approach will provide efficiencies and a consistent approach to the existing hydrology and drainage conditions in the corridor. We will work with Caltrans to gain approval of the Master Drainage data thus reducing the repetition of completing these studies for each individual project and reduce the required submittals, reviews and approvals by Caltrans.

We propose to have Penfield & Smith complete this study as part of the original program management team. They have unique qualifications and have worked on drainage Improvements throughout the City.

The cost of the Base Project Scope will not exceed $62,260 and will be completed per the scope of ervices provided in Penfield and Smith's attached proposal. The optional services to analyze fl Lild out conditions is also provided in the attached scope can be completed for an addition $42,460. Total services for the Base Project Scope and Optional Future Build-out Conditions will not exceed $104,720

Master Drainage Study
Dear Mr. Blume:

Civll Eng' eering
Land Surveying As requested by the Kimley-Horn, Penfield & Smith (P&S) appreciates the Land Use Planning opportunity to submit this proposal for engineering services for the above referenced project. P&S has a strong background in Water Resource with Canteen: & Inspecton several experienced staff members capable of performing this type of work. As you explained during our recent phone conversation, it is the intent of the City of Traffic & Transportation Lancaster to complete a Master Drainage study of existing conditions to support Engtreering the Measure R funded projects. The projects include interchanges along the Transportation Planning Antelope Valley Highway (SR-14 and SR-138) at Avenue's G, K, J, L and M.

Structural Englisering
Water Resources UNDERSTANDING OF PROJECT REQUIREMENTS
Engineering
t is understood that the purpose of the Master Drainage study is to provide GIS baseline analysis for the different project consultants that will complete the Repoinary and final design. It will also be incorporated into the Project Study The Antelope Valley has drainage facilities for four separate jurisdictions that may contribute flows along the project corridor. These include City of Lancaster, City of Palmdale, County of Los Angeles and Caltrans. Although there are jurisdictional boundaries, P&S has a great working relationship with all of them which will lead to a collaborative effort on sharing of information.

A project of this type can be approached very differently and is dependent on the use of the data in the future. One method is to gather new data throughout the entire area and develop a new hydrologic model. Although there might be significant benefits in this approach, it is very costly and | believe not warranted.

As an alternative P&S will gather as much existing information as available and validate and/or correct stormwater flows by using current tools and methodologies. Such tools and methodologies include the Los Angeles Counties LAR-'AC data and Natlonal Hydrography Dataset.

RE: Corridor Environmental Studies - Measure R Program Interchanges Dear Marissa,
As we have discussed over the past few months, we propose to complete a Corridor Environmental studies to support the environmental documents for the City of Lancaster (City) Measure R Program Interchange Projects. These studies will address existing conditions for each of the interchanges and adjacent areas. These studies are intended to provide the baseline existing conditions information for the corridor so that the studies do not need to be replicated for each specific interchange project.

We are proposing to complete the Existing Conditions Reports for communities and neighborhoods, biology, and cultural resources for each of the five interchanges in the corridor. The purpose of the Existing Conditions Reports will be to identify existing resources and constraints early in the Project Approval/Environmental Document (PA/ED) phases of the projects and to reduce delays of collecting the data later in the process. Identifying resources and constraints early in the design process will allow the design teams to avoid or reduce impacts on existing resources to the extent feasible, thereby reducing time and cost associated with agency consultation and mitigation; and to identify and take advantage of early seasonal survey requirements and constraints and not miss these critical survey windows.

Information included in the Existing Conditions Reports will be used to support the CEQA technical studies for each of the interchanges and will provide a baseline for the SR-138/SR-14 corridor. The Existing Conditions Reports will also be used to create a consistent inventory throughout the corridor that would be used in the technical studies for the PA/ED phase of each of the projects.

The information will be provided to each interchange design team so that existing conditions will be determined by the City on the front end and not have to be confirmed with each interchange project.

This program wide approach will provide efficiencies and a consistent approach to identifying the existing resources in the corridor. We will work with Caltrans to gain approval of the Existing Conditions Reports thus reducing the repetition of completing these studies for each individual project and reduce the required submittals, reviews and approvals by Caltrans.

We propose to have GPA Environmental complete these studies as they are part of the original program management team. They have unique qualifications and have worked with Caltrans District 7 environmental staff on numerous projects. This knowledge and familiarity with Caltrans requirements will help to maintain consistency in the information provided to the consultant teams for kimiey-horn.com 660 South Figueroa Street, Suite 1040, Los Angeles, CA 90017 213 261 4040 Kimley» Horn Page 2
use in their technical studies. Rich Galvin will lead the efforts for GPA Environmental and is committed to supporting the program to successful completion.

The cost of the Existing Conditions Reports for communities and neighborhoods, biology, and cultural resources will not exceed $143,617 and will be completed per the scope of services provided in GPA Environmental attached proposal.

An option to complete the Historic Resources is also provided. This most likely will be different for each project and it can be completed efficiently by each consultant team and not proposed at this time.

Please let me know if you have any questions or need any additional information.

Sincerely.

Subject: Existing Conditions Reports for the Measure R "Highway Equity" (Measure R) Program Dear Mr. Blume:

GPA Consulting is pleased to submit this proposed scope of work to prepare existing conditions reports for the above-referenced project. The attached scope of work has been prepared based on the project information provided by Kimley-Horn and Associates and found in the project RFQ. GPA is available to commence work on these tasks immediately, once approved by Kimley-Horn and Associates.

The purpose of the Existing Conditions Reports is to identify existing resources and constraints early in the environmental process, and to reduce delays later in the process. Identifying resources and constraints early in the environmental process will allow the design team to avoid or reduce impacts on existing resources to the extent feasible, thereby reducing time and cost associated with agency consultation and mitigation; and to identify any seasonal survey constraints and consultation requirements early on to allow for sufficient time in the schedule. Information included in the Existing Conditions Reports would also be used to support the CEQA technical studies, and to provide a baseline picture of the SR-138/SR-14 corridor. Existing Conditions reports will also give a consistent analysis throughout the corridor, thereby reducing cost and expediting schedule. The Existing Conditions Report would also be used to create a consistent inventory throughout the corridor that will be used in the technical studies for the PA/ED phase of the project.

Sincerely,

GPA SCOPE OF WORK
Existing Conditions Reports
For the
Measure R "Highway Equity" (Measure R) Program

1. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Lancaster (City) has selected Kimley-Horn and Associates (KHA) as the Program/Project Management consultant for the City Measure R "Highway Equity" (Measure R) Program being managed by the City. The Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) Planning and Programming Committee, on September 19, 2012, approved Measure R funds for multiple capacity-enhancing projects along State Route 138 (SR-138), which overlaps with SR-14 within the project areas.

As part of the program, the City, in cooperation with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and the MTA, is planning to modify the geometry and/or capacity of five interchanges, including the following:
• SR-138/SR-14 and Avenue G Interchange (City, Caltrans, and County of Los Angeles jurisdiction) • SR-138/SR-14 and Avenue J Interchange (City and Caltrans jurisdiction) • SR-138/SR-14 and Avenue K Interchange (City and Caltrans jurisdiction) • SR-138/SR-14 and Avenue L Interchange (City and Caltrans jurisdiction) • SR-138/SR-14 and Avenue M Interchange (City, Caltrans, County of Los Angeles, and City of Palmdale jurisdiction)
Improvements may include interchange modifications and modifications to local intersecting roadways up to a half mile east and west of the interchanges. Modifications may include widening overcrossings over the existing SR-138/SR-14, interchange geometric enhancements, traffic signals or other traffic control improvements, landscaping, pedestrian and cycling improvements, and other context sensitive solutions (CSS).

Caltrans has been identified as the California Environmental Quality act (CEQA) lead agency for the interchange improvements; therefore, Caltrans is required to determine whether the project could have a significant impact on the environment and incorporate measures to minimize or mitigate impacts to the extent feasible.

As part of the environmental evaluation process, KHA has requested that GPA prepare a scope of work to complete Existing Conditions Reports for community, biology, and cultural resources at each of the five interchanges. The purpose of the Existing Conditions Reports is to identify existing resources and constraints early in the Project Approval/Environmental Document (PA/ED), and to reduce delays later in the process. Identifying resources and constraints early in the design process will allow the design team to avoid or reduce impacts on existing resources to the extent feasible, thereby reducing time and 231 calfornia street el secundo co 90245 1 310.792.2090 1.310.792.2696 SCOPE

cost associated with agency consultation and mitigation; and to identify any seasonal survey constraints and consultation requirements early on to allow for sufficient time in the schedule. Information included in the Existing Conditions Reports will also be used to support the CEQA technical studies, and to provide a baseline picture of the SR-138/SR-14 corridor. The Existing Conditions Reports will also be used to create a consistent inventory throughout the corridor that would be used in the technical studies for the PA/ED phase of the project.

Il. SCOPE OF WORK
TASK 1: EXISTING CONDITIONS REPORTS
GPA will perform background research, field surveys, and will prepare an Existing Conditions Report for each of the resource areas discussed below to identify design constraints, required surveys and consultation, and serve as a basis for future environmental studies. Each report will include a description of the relevant existing conditions in each of the interchange study areas, as well as any existing environmental constraints that could affect project design, schedule, or cost and any additional required steps to achieve CEQA approvals. The reports will be supported by mapping and any other relevant exhibits or references. GPA will prepare the reports in a format acceptable to the City, and will submit the draft reports to the City for review and comment. GPA will then Incorporate comments from the City and finalize the document.

Project Management and Meetings
During preparation of each report, GPA will maintain a clear line of communication with KHA, and will conduct regular status checks to ensure all tasks are on schedule and within budget. GPA will prepare a monthly progress report for each task that includes the progress of each task, new and ongoing issues, proposed resolutions, and estimated impact on the schedule. GPA will attend project meetings during preparation of the existing conditions reports, either in person or via conference call. Up to four project meetings are anticipated for each report.

Project Initiation
After receiving notice to proceed, GPA will coordinate with KHA to gather a sufficient level of information on the proposed project to prepare an initial project description (purpose/need and an outline of general project features) and delineate a study area for each of the environmental disciplines.

The study area may vary for different resource areas, depending on what is being assessed.

Task 1.A Communities and Neighborhoods
Researching existing conditions related to communities and neighborhoods surrounding the five interchanges will assist in identifying any potential constraints related to land use, community concerns, flood hazards, farmlands, or other community issues that could require design consideration, result in project delays, or that may require additional study or coordination. 231 califomia sneet, el segundo ca 90245 1. 310.792.2590 I.310 792 2696 SCOPE
Q FA
Land Use, Zoning, and Special Designations
GPA will obtain Information regarding existing land uses within and near the project area by completing windshield surveys, reviewing land use plans and zoning codes, and reviewing maps of the project area and surroundings. GPA will compile this information and provide a summary of existing and future land uses and zoning designations; applicable state, regional, and local land use plans; adjacent residential neighborhoods and business districts; community character and cohesion; 100-year special flood hazard areas; and farmlands of statewide importance and timberlands for each of the five interchange study areas.

Population, Housing, and Communities
Under CEQA, if a social or economic change is related to a physical change, then social or economic change may be considered in determining whether the physical change is significant. Since this project would result in physical changes to the environment, it is appropriate to consider changes to community character and cohesion in assessing the significance of the project's effects. As part of the development of this project scope, GPA performed preliminary research of social and economic data from the United States (U.S.) Census Bureau. Based on this research, GPA has determined that the project could result in social and economic changes.

GPA will obtain information on the existing community setting within and near the project area by completing windshield surveys, reviewing regional planning documents and general plans, and performing a geographical search using 2010 U.S. Census Bureau data and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) data. GPA will compile this information and provide a summary of parks, recreational areas, emergency services, schools and other community facilities; and population, housing, and economic conditions for each of the five interchange study areas.

Existing Conditions Report
GPA will prepare a summary of the results of these studies in the Communities and Neighborhoods Existing Conditions Report, which will discuss each of the five interchange study areas separately. The summary will include a discussion of the study methodology, regulatory requirements, existing setting and resources, research results, and supporting maps. The report will also outline any future surveys, analysis, and consultations that may be required with resource agencies to obtain project approvals and environmental permits. Relevant attachments will be included.

Deliverables: One electronic copy and up to three hard copies of the Communities and Neighborhoods Existing Conditions Report; monthly progress reports
Task 1.B Biological Resources
Researching existing conditions related to biological resources surrounding the five interchanges will assist in identifying any potential constraints related to sensitive resources that could require design consideration or avoidance, result in project delays, or that may require additional study, consultation, permitting, and/or mitigation. In addition, completing biological surveys up front will allow for 231 calfornia steer el segundo co 90245 | 310.792.2690 1.310.792.2696 SCOPE
GP A
completion of one of two seasons required for the Caltrans Natural Environment Study and will facilitate the ability to exclude species from further consideration.

Background Research and Mapping
GPA will review available data on biological resources recorded within and near each of the five interchange study areas, including all plant and animal species with the potential to be in the project area. This review will include conducting searches in databases such as the California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) and the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI). Additionally, a list of protected species with the potential to be in each of the study areas will be requested from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). Existing studies completed near each of the study areas will also be referenced, including applicable planning documents. GPA will utilize this background data and project design plans to delineate the Biological Study Area (BSA) for each of the five interchanges, which will be used as the boundary for field surveys and the Existing Conditions Report.

Field Surveys
GPA will survey the BSA for potential wildlife, their signs, and/or potential habitat. GPA will inventory all botanical, aquatic, and wildlife resources observed in the BSAs. GPA will identify and record all existing vegetation communities in the area. Botanical surveys will be conducted during the blooming period for special-status plants with potential to be in the project area (April and May), where feasible. The limits of potentially jurisdictional areas, including waters of the U.S. and waters of the state, will be identified based on appropriate criteria including the ordinary high water mark (OHWM), edge of channel banks, and riparian boundaries. Based on preliminary research, it appears that there may be jurisdictional areas in portions of the drainage channel east of SR-14.

Existing Conditions Report
GPA will prepare a summary of the results of these studies in the Biological Resources Existing Conditions Report, which will discuss each of the five interchange study areas separately. The summary will include a discussion of the study methodology, regulatory requirements, existing setting and resources, research results, supporting maps. The report will also outline any future surveys, analysis, and consultations that may be required with resource agencies to obtain project approvals and environmental permits. Relevant attachments will be included.

Deliverables: One electronic copy and up to three hard copies of the Biological Resources Existing Conditions Report; monthly progress reports
Task 1.C Archaeological Resources (SRI - Archaeological Sub Consultant) Researching existing conditions related to archaeological resources surrounding the five interchanges will assist in identifying any potential constraints related to resources that could require design consideration or avoidance, result in project delays, or that may require additional study or consultation and/or mitigation.
231 colomio stredi el segundo co 90245 : 310.792.2690 1310?92 2096 SCOPE
GIPA
Native American Coordination
SRI will conduct preliminary Native American coordination as part of the information-gathering process.

SRI will contact the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) for a list of traditional-use areas or sacred sites within and near each of the interchange study areas and for a list of specific Native American groups or individuals who may have knowledge of Native American resources in any of the study areas. The contacts list will be available for use during later stages of work. Because the proposed project is in the preliminary planning stages, SRI does not anticipate initiating contact with groups or individuals named by the NAHC as part of the proposed work.

Background Research
Background research will involve records searches at the SCCIC at California State University, Fullerton, to identify all known cultural resources previously recorded in each of the study areas and surrounding one mile. It will also involve brief archival research related to the history of area. SRI will request the record search and archival research, and will conduct a brief review of pertinent geological literature to evaluate the potential for significant buried archaeological resources to be in each of the study areas.

The background research will be used to help identify cultural resources in the study areas and determine the sensitivity of the study areas for buried archaeological resources.

Field Surveys
SRI will conduct an intensive survey of the each of the study areas and record all identified cultural resources. The study areas are located in a highly developed area, and surface visibility in many areas is expected to be poor. Fieldwork will involve inspecting any exposed ground surface in the study areas for evidence of archaeological deposits. Photographs will be taken to document the degree of development within the study areas. SRI will exclude private lands and other areas with access issues from the survey.

Because of the developed nature of the study areas, SRI assumes that no more than three archaeological resources will be found during survey. If resources are found, site recording will involve Global Positioning System mapping of site boundaries, surface features, and a sample of surface artifacts. A narrative site description will be prepared to characterize the appearance, integrity, and boundaries of each property.

Existing Conditions Report
GPA will prepare a summary of the results of these studies in the Archaeological Resources Existing Conditions Report, which will discuss each of the five interchange study areas separately. The summary will include a discussion of the study methodology, regulatory requirements, existing setting and resources, research results, supporting maps. The report will also outline any future surveys, analysis, and consultations that may be required with resource agencies to obtain project approvals and environmental permits. Relevant attachments will be included.

Task 1.D (Optional Task) Historic Resources
Researching existing conditions related to historic resources surrounding the five interchanges will assist in identifying any potential constraints related to resources that could require design consideration or avoidance, result in project delays, or that may require additional study or consultation and/or mitigation.

Field Surveys
GPA architectural historians will conduct a site visit and identify properties that are more than 45 years old and that would require evaluation for historic significance. GPA will photograph each property and take notes on the character defining features, alterations, and aspects of integrity for use in preparing state inventory forms.

Historical Research
GPA will conduct general and property specific research to assist in resource identification. The general research will be conducted on the City of Lancaster and the immediate area to develop a historic context. Property specific research will be used to evaluate prior events, persons, or architects associated with the properties. Research will be conducted at the local library, historical societies, Assessor's office, building department, and online resources. The materials that will be reviewed will include historic maps and photographs, building permits, written histories, newspaper articles, biographies, obituaries, etc., as available and relevant to each property being evaluated.

Property Evaluation
GPA will prepare a State of California Department of Parks and Recreation inventory form (DPR523 A - Primary Record and BSO form) for each building, structure or object that is more than 45 years old that is within any of the five interchange study areas. The DPR forms will include a photograph and description of the property, description of alterations, ownership Information, and an assessment of integrity. The BSO form will include an evaluation of the property against the criteria for the National Register of Historic Places and the California Register of Historical Resources and will assign a recommended status code.

Existing Conditions Report
GPA will prepare a summary of the results of these studies in the Historic Resources Existing Conditions Report, which will discuss each of the five interchange study areas separately. The summary will include a discussion of the study methodology, regulatory requirements, existing setting and resources, research results, supporting maps. The report will also outline any future surveys, analysis, and consultations that may be required with resource agencies to obtain project approvals and environmental permits.

RE: Aesthetic Framework Guidelines - Measure R Program Interchanges Dear Marissa,
As we have discussed over the past few months, we propose to complete a study to develop Aesthetics Framework Guidelines for the City of Lancaster (City) Measure R Program Interchange Projects and adjacent corridors. This effort is intended to provide the framework for the projects that will be developed as part of these interchange projects as well as other corridor improvement projects that will follow.

Once developed, the guidelines will be provided to each interchange design team for use during the development and implementation of the individual projects. This corridor wide approach will provide efficiencies and consistent themes and techniques that will be used by all the design teams. We will work with Caltrans to gain approval of the framework concepts in order to reduce the repetition of completing these studies and approvals for each individual project, which will reduce the required submittals, reviews and approvals by Caltrans.

Re: Highway 138 Corridor Framework
Lancaster, California
Dear Bob:

Per our phone conversations over the past few weeks, Sargent Town Planning is pleased to provide this proposal to provide conceptual urban design services to the City of Lancaster. We propose to collaborate with you and City staff in defining a conceptual vision plan and urban design framework for the 14/138 freeway and freeway interchanges within the City of Lancaster, with some limited consideration of the arterial street segments adjacent and connecting to those interchanges. We propose to document that design vision and framework in the form of a concise Freeway Corridor Framework that will help City staff to guide and coordinate the design of current and future public improvements throughout the Corridor.

The team we propose to assign to this work is the same team the City is accustomed to, including our internal staff and David Schneider, consulting landscape architect. This work will draw upon the Draft Corridors Plan produced by this team in collaboration with City staff, and on further discussion and collaboration with you and City staff. We outline below our proposed approach to this task, a description of the proposed deliverables, and an estimate of the assoclated professional fees.

Scope of Project
The Highway 14/138 Corridor Is the primary regional approach and entry to the City for most visitors, and has the potential to not only create a strong and positive first impression, but also to help guide and direct visitors to destinations throughout the City. In its current form the corridor is not performing those functions at a high level, and transforming the design character of these large spaces will require large-scale design interventions.

The funding currently available to the City for transportation improvements to several of those interchanges offers an opportunity to construct new infrastructure at such a significant scale.

We understand that the current funding allocations will be devoted mainly to transportation improvements, and that a key element of the City's strategy in preparing this Framework is to:

1. Define a corridor wide framework, context and general design themes, within which future designs for each freeway segment and each interchange node - through their basic design and including both near-term and potential future design enhancements - will present an image and identity that is both unique to its place and functional requirements, and that contributes to a coherent design and image of Lancaster's 138 corridor as a whole.

SARGENT TOWN PLANNING

2. Describe in general terms the urban context within which each interchange will operate, suggesting general parameters for the image and role of each.

3. Define a recommended vocabulary and palette of design enhancement types for the corridor, to help guide the design of near-term transportation improvements as well as future improvement projects and additional design enhancements as resources become available.

Proposed Scope of Services
We propose to work closely and collaboratively with City staff to produce the Freeway Corridor Framework in a relatively short period of time. We suggest the following approach and tasks.

1. Kickoff Meeting: We would meet with you and Engineering Department staff, along with any other interested parties invited by you, to review the maln objectives and parameters for the Corridor Framework. We suggest that the agenda for the meeting might include:
a. Presentation by City staff of current and upcoming improvement projects within the Corridor, your and engineering staff's initial assessment of key related opportunities for community Image and design enhancements.
b. A brief review of design concepts from the Draft Corridors Plan that may be applicable to the 138 Corridor Framework.
c. A discussion of the anticipated role of each Interchange, and high-level goals and Initial visions for them.
d. Visual materials to support this conversation could include a short PowerPoint presentation of key elements from the Draft Corridors Plan, any materials provided by the City, and Google maps on the screen.

Deliverables: PowerPoint presentation, if so requested.

2. Corridor Design Concepts: Based on the input received in the kickoff meeting and on the previous Corridors Plan work, our team will work rapidly over the course of a week to prepare a series of diagrams, illustrative sketches and photographs of examples of freeway and interchange designs from other communities. The intent of these materials will be to suggest design themes and components for consideration in establishing a palette and theme for the Corridor. These are expected to include:
a. Concepts for enhancing bridges, walls and other structural elements of existing and future interchanges and overcrossings.
b. Landscape concepts and strategies for application to a range of conditions throughout the corridor, including banks sloping up and down from the freeway, interchanges, the Amargosa Wash, and other abutting spaces.
c. An overall palette of landscape types and materials that reflect Lancaster's unique geography and climate, aimed at both variation and cohesion.
d. For each interchange, a context description and diagram identifying general design considerations for the area surrounding the interchange. e. Suggestions for the integration of some of the initial branding and wayfinding graphic system outlined in the Corridors Plan, focused on opportunities to Integrate these with other design concepts and elements.

f. Two or three potential overall design themes for consideration and discussion.

Deliverables: Design concepts summary PowerPoint presentation.

3. Review Meeting: We will attend a second meeting in Lancaster, to review the Draft Framework naterials with you and City staff. Goals for this meeting would include the revlew and discussion o the alternatives developed in Task 2, and the identification of the preferred themes, elements anc design palettes. We anticipate that discussion will be focused on implementation techniques anc challenges, to help inform the organization, content and format of the Draft Corridor Framework as a useful and effective implementation tool.

Deliverables: Meeting notes.

4. Draft Corridor Framework: Based on the discussion and direction in Task 3, we will organize the agreed upon concepts, diagrams, design element types, and coordination procedures into a Draft 138 Corridor Framework document. The document will be simply formatted, including diagrams and sketched, photographs of examples of recommended design elements, and short narrative descriptions of general design intent. As discussed and agreed In Task 3, the document will Include recommendatlons for design review and coordination procedures that may be employed by City staff as they manage the upcoming interchange design projects and the engineering teams responsible for each. We expect, subject to your agreement, that the Corridor Framework would include:
a. Diagrams, short narratives and illustrations - primarily photographs - describing the overall vislon and major design themes for the 138 Corridor.
b. Descriptions and illustrations of the primary design elements expected to contribute to the Corridor, including but not limited to landscape types, wall and bridge types, graphic elements, and potentially public art elements.
c. Implementation recommendations and suggestions related to the coordination and integration of individual improvement projects.

Deliverables: Draft 138 Corridor Framework

5. Corridor Framework Report: When the City has had an opportunity to review the Draft Corridor Framework, we will meet with City staff to review and discuss all questions and comments. Based on that meeting we will make minor graphic and editorlal changes as requested, and will dellver the 138 Corridor Framework report to you.

Deliverables: 138 Corridor Framework Report, in high resolution PDF format. 3 of 4
