B.

The following section outlines LDM's approach to the reha bi litation process.
lntake/assessment of eligibility (review applications): LDM will make initial eligibility determination of applicants based on established City program eligibility criteria and grantfunding income guidelines.

Property lnspection: lnspections will take place a minimum of four (4) separate times during the rehabilitation process, depending on the level of rehabilitation. LDM will perform site visits to ascertain that approved and contracted/applicable rehabilitation work is proceeding properly and satisfactorily, will authorize (with the homeowner's written approval, including signature and date) appropriate change orders, and will mediate in the event of owner dissatisfaction with the work done by the contractor. The initial property inspection takes place following LDM's determination of applicant and property eligibility to determine rehabilitation needs for the purpose of the funding recommendation, environmental review and whether or not hazardous materials testing will be necessary.

Subsequent inspections take place during the construction phase to verify compliance with contract specifications in order to validate the release of funds from escrow to the contractor. LDM and the owner will conduct the final inspection upon completion of all work items.

Work write-ups: For each eligible dwelling to be assisted, LDM will complete a detailed Work Description and Bid Proposal that details the rehabilitation work to be performed, including estimated costs of each activity, materials to be used, and industry or regulatory standards to be met. This write-up will be signed and dated by the homeowner.

Solicitation and selection of construction contractors: LDM will assist approved homeowners in the identification, proper solicitation, and selection of contactors qualified to perform the authorized rehabilitation of eligible housing units in accordance with the requirements of the funding grant (i.e., CDBG, HOME, CalHome, etc.). LDM will review work orders/contracts/agreements that contractors will sign, and LDM will assist homeowners in ensuring the description of the work contained in any contracts/agreements/work orders with contractors is as accurate as possible.

Prepare Environmental Review and Assessment: Prepare all environmental review documentsfor each property being rehabilitated. For CDBG funded activities, a Tiered Environmental Review process would be prepared to include the Request for Release of Funds (RROF)from HUD.

Nothing herein shall grant the CITY any right, title, or interest in CONSULTANT'S protected Materials, other than as provided herein. At no time during or after the term of this Agreement shall CITY challenge or assist others to challenge the registration thereof or attempt to register any materials that would infringe upon those of CONSULTANT. lf requested to do so, and when provided a copy of relevant federal copyright or trademark registration(s), the CITY agrees to legibly and durably affix to such Materials, notices in compliance with applicable copyright and trademark laws, including but not limited to the use of the symbol "@" or similar symbols.

The CITY shall use reasonable efforts to notify the CONSULTANT in writing of any actual or potential infringement of the Materials of which the CITY becomes aware. Any new use, modification, or enhancement of the Materials or any variation thereof by CONSULTANT, shall belong exclusively to CONSULTANT.

Other than CONSULTANT'S Materials, all draft and final reports, documents and other written material, and any and all images, ideas, concepts, designs including website designs, source code, object code, electronic data and files or other media whatsoever, created or developed by the CONSULTANT in the performance of this Agreement (collectively, "Work Product") shall be considered to be "works made for hire" for the benefit of the CITY.

3.16 LINE ITEM PRICING
Based on the scope of work represented by the City's RFP, Addendum #L issued under RFP 783-23, and the City's response to question number 15 under RFP 783-23, we are hereby submitting an alternate bid price structure in performing the tasks proposed under the scope of work.

Due to the multiple variables associated with a housing rehabilitation program and the individual projects such as reviewing applications for failed projects; receiving and processing a large number of extensive rehabilitation projects, resulting in a higher unit cost, as compared to a mix of small, medium, and large projects; small or limited contractor pool requiring additional staff time in working with applicant to obtain the necessary bids.

LDM proposes to bill on a time and material basis with a not-to-exceed cost of 20% of the overall program budget. This will allow LDM to bill for the proportionate of time that is associated with a small, medium, and large-scale rehabilitation project. The not-to-exceed budget amount would cover the costs of failed projects. Staff hours will be billed based on actual work hours performed and billed as listed in the following Schedule of Hourly Billing Rates.
