Dear Ms. Stutz:

The City of Oroville (City) is proposing to transform the Washington Avenue and Table Mountain Boulevard in to an inviting multimodal corridor that will accommodate all modes of transportation, including bicycles and pedestrians. The project area serves as a backbone to the communities within Oroville, and the proposed improvements are critical to establishing additional transportation options for the community. This project will install new 10-foot wide multi-use pathways, sidewalks, pedestrian crossing improvements, including high-visibility crosswalk markings, ADA curb ramps, pedestrian refuge islands, new Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs), and additional landscape enhancements. Mark Thomas is in a unique position to make this project a reality for the City through our knowledge of the area and our development of the previous ATP funding application for the project. This gives us an understanding of the goals of the City along with the ability to enhance the City’s application to allow for a better opportunity for ATP Cycle 8 funding.

In addition to our previous experience with the project, Mark Thomas has the experience and knowledge to deliver this project for the City. We provide the City with the following benefits:

Experience with the City of Oroville: In addition to our work on the previous grant application, Mark Thomas worked with the City on the design and construction of the recent improvements along SR 162. There were many challenges that we worked with the City to overcome. The insights gained from this experience will enhance our funding and design efforts for the Washington Avenue and Table Mountain Complete Streets Project. This includes “lessons learned” on project data needs (such as topographic and utility information) and positioning the project for future funding cycles.

Experienced Project Manager: Daniel Blomquist, PE, has 24 years of experience in the management and design of transportation and public works projects. He has recently delivered similar projects with the Cities of Stockton, Woodland, Santa Cruz, and Mill Valley. His projects include bike and pedestrian improvements, roadway improvements, complete streets, and road widenings. He has worked on multiple projects with similar elements as the Washington Avenue and Table Mountain Boulevard Complete Streets Project, and has coordinated with Caltrans Local Assistance for the delivery of numerous projects with federal funds. His participation in the grant application process gives him better understanding of what the project will entail.

Extensive Experience in Complete Streets and Active Transportation: Mark Thomas specializes in the design of complete streets and bicycle/pedestrian enhancements, and we adhere to National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO) and other complete street guidelines. Our experience includes delivering hundreds of complete streets and active transportation facilities, such as Class I trails, Class IV protected bikeways, Class II buffered bike lanes, ADA upgrades, and road diets. We are proficient in technologies like Transit Signal Priority (TSP) and Adaptive Traffic Signals (ATS), supporting smooth operations and improved mobility. Our projects transform communities, enhance mobility, connectivity, and transit reliability, prioritizing safety for all users.

Proven Success with Federally-Funded Projects: We have a strong track record of delivering federally-funded projects including the Paradise Transit Center, Woodland East Main Street Improvements, the Chico Downtown Complete Streets Project, and the Town of Paradise Transportation Master Plan (TMP). Our experience will be invaluable in securing funding and delivering this project on time and within budget.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

FIRM QUALIFICATIONS
Our capabilities are well-matched to the needs of the
City. We possess robust in-house technical resources and have the expertise and capabilities to provide specialized services to efficiently deliver this project.

Mark Thomas is also well known in Butte County. We have delivered numerous bike lanes, sidewalk gap closures,
transit projects with the City of Chico, Butte County
Association of Governments (BCAG), Town of Paradise, and Butte County, including, and projects on the State Highway System. This work includes projects within downtown
Paradise, widening and adding of bike lanes on SR 32 in Chico, and the widening of SR 70, in addition to our work on SR 162.

Our team will be led by Daniel Blomquist, PE, who has
over 20 years of experience delivering bike/pedestrian
improvements, roadway improvements, and complete
streets projects. Daniel is supported by a team of in-house design specialists and subconsultants with the expertise needed to complete the project.

UNDERSTANDING
The Washington Avenue and Table Mountain Boulevard
Complete Streets Project (Project) is a high-profile
opportunity for the City to create a safer and more
comfortable environment that supports the community’s
active transportation and mobility needs. This project will improve local and regional bike connectivity, help support local businesses, and encourage land-use change along
the corridor.

This Project represents the only opportunity to support non-motorized users traveling north-south across Feather River. SR 70 is 1.23 miles west and does not permit bicycling or walking, and there are no other north-south roads
within the City limits to the east.

No other parallel route will support north-south travel for vulnerable non-motorized road users, who often are
from disadvantaged communities. Along the project limits, pedestrians and bicyclists must walk or bike alongside
vehicles to commute to their destinations. This presents significant safety issues, demonstrated by the historic trend of severe collisions in the area.

APPROACH
Having previously delivered the SR 162 Mobility
Improvements Project for the City, we have valuable insight into how best to deliver this Project for the City.

This experience enables us to address challenges that may arise during the delivery of this project, which includes:
» Developing effective pavement rehabilitation methods
to manage project costs while minimizing impacts to
residents and businesses
» Investigating design alternatives to protect
nearby residential and commercial areas
» Modifying the bridge over UPRR tracks
» Landscaping and placemaking
» Maintaining effective emergency evacuation routes
» Working within right of way constraints
and providing proactive coordination to manage risks
associated with relocations
» Effectively identifying utilities and coordinating for utility relocations where necessary
Project challenges include:
» Developing strategies to avoid impacts to potentially sensitive areas
» Effectively coordinating with Caltrans Local Assistance to maintain the project schedule and achieve
environmental clearance in the timeframe needed to
initiate right of way acquisitions for the project
» Coordinating with stakeholders including BCAG,
California Department of Water Resources (DWR),
Caltrans, California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), and Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR)

WHY WE ARE THE IDEAL TEAM
• Our work with the City on the previous ATP
application gives us unmatched knowledge
of this complete streets project
• Our previous work for the City on
SR 162 ties directly into this project
• We are industry leaders in the design of bike/
pedestrian improvements
• We have extensive experience managing
federally-funded projects
• We are proficient in coordinating with Caltrans
Local Assistance and have delivered numerous
projects with federal funds
We have a deep understanding of the
project and the experience to deliver
this project on a fast-track schedule

SR 162 MOBILITY IMPROVEMENTS

OROVILLE

PROJECT OBJECTIVE
SR 162 provides a regional connection with the City of Oroville from SR 70 to the eastern portion of the City. Since 2011 there have been 24 bicycle and pedestrian involved crashes along the corridor. These crashes are attributed to sidewalk gaps, and lack of bike lane delineation and access to transit. The goal of this project was to provide safety and active transportation connectivity design improvements.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Mark Thomas provided preliminary engineering, environmental clearance, and design services to convert SR 162 into a complete street. Our team designed safety and active transportation connectivity improvements from the Feather River along Oro Dam Boulevard (SR 162), Olive Highway (SR 162), and Lower Wyandotte Road as well as upgrades at Lincoln Street and Feather River Boulevard.

The majority of the project is located along the State Highway System. This involved close coordination and approval from Caltrans Oversight through a Design Engineering Evaluation Report (DEER).

PROJECT OUTCOME
The project closed sidewalk gaps and provided Class II bike lanes, high-visibility crosswalks, ADA curb ramps, and streetlighting as well as multi-use paths connecting to the Feather River Trail.

Mark Thomas worked closely with the City to ensure that the project met all ATP funding and Caltrans requirements to deliver the project to construction. We also worked directly with the City and the construction management firm to overcome challenges encountered during construction. Mark Thomas will provide the same commitment that the Washington Avenue and Table Mountain Boulevard Complete Streets Project will complete design and construction.

GREEN VALLEY ROAD MULTI-USE TRAIL IMPROVEMENTS

WATSONVILLE

PROJECT OBJECTIVE
This County of Santa Cruz sought to design a new multi-use trail to enhance safety and encourage active transportation along the well-used corridor that connects Watsonville and the rest of Santa Cruz County through the unincorporated communities of Interlaken, Amesti, and Corralitos. Green Valley Road is the only direct route from the City of Watsonville into the unincorporated counties with no other parallel routes that exist. This local road includes three schools, three parks, and 36 transit stops. This is also a corridor identified with an opportunity to serve the Latino farm-working families in this disadvantaged community where, out of financial necessity, residents walk and bike to work, school, and shopping destinations.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Mark Thomas provided engineering support for improvements to this multi-use trail located north of the City of Watsonville in an unincorporated area of Santa Cruz County between Airport Road and Mesa Verde Drive. The project included roadway improvements, construction of an 8-to-10-foot-wide multi-use trail and transit stop enhancements spanning two miles along a well-traveled and highspeed road with sporadic existing facilities for pedestrians and bicyclists.

PROJECT OUTCOME
This project ultimately improves the safety and connectivity for pedestrians and bicyclists, enhancing public health and promoting community connectivity.

This includes under-served communities by improving the level of service and comfort for pedestrians and bicyclists by providing a 10-foot, continuous-width path and improved pedestrian crossings with new RRFBs where limited facilities currently exist. Additionally, the project upgraded five Santa Cruz METRO bus stops with shelters.

Construction will be completed in spring 2025.

PROJECT ORGANIZATION AND APPROACH

UNDERSTANDING
The Washington Avenue and Table Mountain Boulevard
Complete Streets Project (Project) limits include
Washington Avenue between SR 162 (Oro Dam Boulevard)
at the southern limit and Montgomery Street, and Table
Mountain Boulevard between Riverview Terrace Drive and
County Center Drive at the northern limit.

The project proposes to construct a new major northsouth multimodal walking and biking path. This path creates a new backbone connection for future expansion
of the east-west bicycle and pedestrian connectors.

There are currently no sidewalks within many
segments of the project limits. Pedestrians and
bicyclists must walk or bike on paved and unpaved
shoulders alongside vehicles to commute to their
destinations. This presents significant safety issues,
demonstrated by the historic trend of severe
collisions in the area.

SR 70 is 1.23 miles west of the project site and does not permit cycling or walking, and there are no other northsouth roads within the City limits to the east. In addition, no other parallel route will support north-south travel for vulnerable non‑motorized road users, who often are
from disadvantaged communities.

The project will create a safer and more comfortable
environment that supports the community’s multimodal
transportation and mobility needs; improve local and
regional bike connectivity; help support local businesses; and encourage land-use change along the corridor.

Improvements include:
» Class I multi-use path
» Gap closure in existing sidewalks
» New crossings with high-visibility striping
» Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs)
» Pedestrian lighting
» Curb extensions
» New landscaped medians
» Planter strips with shade trees
» New pathway lighting

PROJECT OBJECTIVES
Create a safe, comfortable environment that supports
active transportation and mobility needs
Improve local and regional bike connectivity
Support local businesses
Encourage land-use change along the corridor

PROJECT APPROACH
Through our understanding, we have developed a unique
strategy and approach to deliver the project to meet
the City’s aggressive project schedule. Accelerating the schedule will provide flexibility and opportunity for the City to adapt to unanticipated challenges that may arise and still meet the project’s grant funding requirements. Our technical expertise in delivering complete streets
projects, and projects involving federal funds,
will be a major benefit to the City as we can bring
important lessons learned and the latest design
innovations and Caltrans coordination procedures
to the project.

Our approach is focused on:
» Maintaining an Aggressive Delivery Schedule:

Our team will move forward with several concurrent
tasks upon receipt of Notice to Proceed (NTP) including conducting technical studies that will be needed to
complete environmental clearance, obtain City approval
on the preliminary design, and initiate ROW research
and mapping to define the ROW needs.
» Beginning the Corridor Design and
Environmental Studies Immediately: Based on our
team’s experience preparing the current preliminary
alignments, we have a unique understanding of the
project opportunities and constraints with no learning
curve, enabling our team to start work immediately.
» Identifying and Mitigate Right of Way and Utility
Impacts: Our team understands the importance of
identifying ROW and utility issues early to proactively manage coordination with property and utility owners
with the intent of avoiding last minute design changes
and schedule impacts.
» Providing Cost Certainty for the City: Our team
will develop preliminary designs and estimates by the
summer of 2025. This will allow the City to determine
the funding needs and schedule to deliver the project
to construction. This will also include a potential
approach to construction phasing and the overall
budget needed to complete project designs.

MAINTAINING

AN AGGRESSIVE SCHEDULE
This project is dependent on advancing the preliminary
engineering and environmental studies quickly to support the planned application for Active Transportation Program (ATP) Cycle 8 grant funds for PS&E, right of way, and
construction and obtain environmental clearance for CEQA and NEPA prior to June 2026. Early delivery of several
project tasks will be important to set the tone for the required pace of the project. Equally as important is a deep understanding of the grant funding requirements to best position the project for competitive ATP Grant funds and Caltrans Local Assistance process.
150-DAY

QUICK START
This project requires special attention
to early tasks in order to get into final
design and ROW acquisition as quickly
as possible. We have developed a 150-day quick start
program that identifies critical items that will need to move forward in parallel to make this a reality. Our schedule for the first 150 days includes the tasks shown in the table below.

By being aggressive and completing critical tasks within the first 150 days, we will position the project for success. As the project manager, Daniel Blomquist will actively drive the schedule forward and set bi-weekly standing meetings with the City to share information quickly and efficiently while making progress on multiple fronts. Mark Thomas is
experienced in the delivery of fast-tracked projects.

We recently completed five miles of bikeway and
sidewalk gap closure design in Santa Cruz County
with ROW acquisition and Caltrans permitting
within 18 months of NTP.

DESIGN AND SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

PAVEMENT RESTORATION
The pavement along Table Mountain Boulevard and
Washington Avenue is observed to be in generally fair
to very poor condition, with high-severity block cracking and alligator cracking present within the wheel paths.

Potholes are present along multiple stretches of road with more being recently repaired with cold patches. As such, the project includes consideration for extensive pavement rehabilitation with reconstruction of existing pavement sections where needed.

Our experience working on the adjacent SR 162 Mobility
Improvements Project shows that large diameter cobbles
(12-inch or greater) and coarse gravel may be present
within the upper five feet of the near surface soils. Our approach to designing the most appropriate rehabilitation method heavily relies on identifying the extent of coarse material within the alignment.

Working with our geotechnical partners at Crawford
and Associates, we first want to determine the existing condition of the pavement. We are particularly interested in the extent of the pavement failure and what methods for rehabilitation we can use. Full-depth recycling could be a good strategy to increase the traffic index of the corridors while maintaining access to homes and businesses during the construction. However, the feasibility of this method will depend on properly identifying the presence and quantity of cobbles within the project alignment. Other design methods could be utilized, where pavement appears to be in fair to good condition, like cold in-place recycling, or a traditional mill and overlay.

RETAINING WALLS
After further evaluation of the site topography, we have determined constructing retaining walls may be necessary at certain locations, particularly just north of Orange Ave, to accommodate the desired cross section and avoid eliminating parking spots while minimizing impacts to adjacent properties. The need for retaining walls will be analyzed during the design process once detailed site topographic and right of way information is available to develop an optimized cross section that meets project goals while minimizing added costs and impacts to private properties.

SIGHT DISTANCE
The project corridor traverses hilly terrain with vertical and horizontal curves that obstruct sight distance, creating unique challenges for vehicle visibility, particularly in areas where pedestrians cross or bicyclists share the roadway.

To address these concerns, we will conduct a thorough
analysis of sight distance at locations where visibility may be an issue and incorporate appropriate design solutions to enhance safety and meet project goals.

TRAFFIC CALMING
To enhance the safety of pedestrians and bicyclists, the project will include traffic calming measures to slow vehicle speeds and improve driver awareness. Curb extensions
along Washington Avenue and a raised median along Table Mountain Boulevard will create a more constrained street feel, naturally reducing vehicle speeds, and increasing drivers’ perception-reaction time, allowing for better
response to pedestrians and bicyclists. Additionally, the installation of RRFBs at Placer Avenue, McClellan Avenue, Orange Avenue, Flying Cloud Drive, Jasmine Court, and
Orangewood Way will provide effective traffic control,
improving pedestrian visibility and regulating vehicle flow.

The addition of intersection roundabouts may also be
considered as a potential traffic calming measure. While space constraints may limit feasibility in certain locations, roundabouts can be effective in reducing vehicle speeds, improving intersection safety, and maintaining traffic flow.

Community feedback on roundabouts may be mixed,
requiring detailed traffic assessment to be completed
and further outreach and discussion. However, locations such as of the intersection of Table Mountain Boulevard and County Center Drive and intersection of Washington
Avenue and Orange Avenue could be suitable for
roundabout implementation.

A concept design, shown below, has been completed for the Table Mountain Boulevard and County Center Drive location, presenting a potential roundabout alternative. This design ensures that the bridge over Thermalito Power Canal remains unaffected while minimizing right-of-way impacts. The
roundabout is expected to slow down vehicles approaching from the north, where speeds are relatively higher, improving overall safety and traffic flow in the area. The implementation and potential roundabout design alternatives may be
evaluated further during the design process to assess their feasibility, potential benefits, and impacts.

MODIFICATION TO THE BRIDGE OVER UPRR
Modification to the bridge over UPRR is necessary to accommodate the proposed multi-use pathway. The modifications will include replacing the existing bridge barriers on both sides of the bridge, as shown below. No major impacts to the bridge structure are anticipated, and the design will utilize the existing bridge deck to accommodate the lane transition from one lane south of the bridge to two lanes at the Bird Street intersection, with the bridge located within the lane transition area.

PAST PROJECT INSIGHTS FOR A MORE FOCUSED APPROACH
One of the most important things we can
do as a company is learn from our recently
constructed projects. Mark Thomas can
bring an even more focused insight to this
project based on the recent experience
along SR 162. Mark Thomas is currently working on
completing the SR 162 Mobility Improvements Project,
where we encountered similar challenges to those we
anticipate on this project.

As a result, we have compiled a focused set of design
considerations, which will be incorporated into our
approach to proactively address potential issues. By
applying these insights, we are confident in our ability to navigate challenges effectively and successfully deliver this project.

Below are the key lessons learned from our previous
experience, which will guide us in addressing potential challenges on this project:
» Use of survey methods that accurately reflect
the existing topography of the site, in lieu
of LiDAR or other technologies that produce
undesirable accuracy that potentially result in design
changes during construction
» Complete necessary geotechnical analyses/tests
to ensure the improvements can properly be
constructed per specifications
» Use more accurate methods to positively identify
the existing utilities within the project limits
(i.e., ground-penetrating radar or potholing)
» Maintain access for property owners

LANDSCAPING
Incorporating landscape into the design of the Project will be an important addition to accomplish the complete streets goals listed in the RFP. Landscape and urban design solutions for complete streets should be grounded in the context of the place, its history, visual analysis, and through stakeholder input. Placemaking is a way to foster pride in the community by incorporating their values and cultures and creating green spaces to soften hardscapes that can also provide positive environmental impacts. We call this placemaking, and it takes “landscaping” from being icing on the cake to an urban design solution that becomes the flavor of the cake.

A project such as this presents an opportunity to incorporate placemaking through these project goals and opportunities:

ENHANCING

THE VISUAL CONTEXT
The surrounding visual context provides vast opportunities for placemaking. The project is bisected by the Feather River with its well-known and loved historic bridges,
reservoir architecture, and scenic vistas. In addition, the north end of the project opens up views to Table Mountain Ecological Reserve. These view opportunities could be
enhanced by including pedestrian plazas and viewpoints at key points within the project area, particularly to the north end of the historic Table Mountain Bridge and at the far northern limits of the project near Thermalito Canal. The City has also invested in public art along the corridor which could be expanded to other improvement areas.

CREATING SHADE

FOR PEDESTRIAN, BIKE,

AND TRANSIT USERS
Oroville, like many Central Valley and foothill communities, struggles with a hot, urban environment. Studies from the US Forest Service show that shade from natural sources, like trees, can lower ambient temperatures up to 19 degrees.

Providing shade at transit stops and at regular intervals along the pedestrian sidewalk and Class 1 bike facility would improve conditions, and ultimately safety, for all users.

BALANCING THE NEED

FOR SHADE TREES WITH

OVERHEAD POWERLINES
Approximately 1.5 miles of the corridor is encumbered
with overhead power on one side of the street and
PG&E has strict guidance for trees placed under their
powerlines. This means that existing, large shade trees impacted by construction may have to be replaced with
small trees that do not provide as much shade. Part of this project could explore funding sources that will assist with undergrounding of powerlines to alleviate this conflict.

INCORPORATING

STORMWATER PLANTERS

AND FILTRATION OF RUNOFF

FROM IMPERVIOUS SURFACES
When it comes, rainfall can be quick and intense.

Incorporating green infrastructure into complete streets can slow the water flow, allowing time for standard storm drains to catch up with the intensity of the rainfall. The proper plant material and systems can be multi-purpose, for visual appeal and improving water quality. They also can be used to clean the runoff of leaves, trash, debris, and pollutants before entering more vulnerable bodies of water.

DESIGNING WITH

LONG-TERM MAINTENANCE

STRATEGIES IN MIND
Landscape architecture uses living construction materials to design and the City is investing heavily in this infrastructure.

As such, it is key that we consider the upkeep requirements of material selections to help ensure that this living system is designed, not only for constructibility, but also with long-term maintenance in mind. This starts by engaging
stakeholders in practical conversations about the future vision for the corridor. This often includes strategically selecting inert materials as part of the design to create texture and interest but also to minimize long-term costs.

Placemaking for a complete street goes
well beyond these fundamentals. Landscaping,
if used strategically, can help separate uses
and guide users to proper crossing points
thereby improving public safety and circulation.

Intersections and mid-block crossing can also be
used to create public plazas and meeting spots.

Placemaking can also be used to enhance a corridor
through the careful addition of public art, street
furnishings (benches and trash receptacles), and
aesthetic features such as seatwalls, signage
and pedestrian lighting.

EMERGENCY EVACUATION
Emergency evacuation is an important consideration for
the community and we will incorporate essential elements in the design to support safety and efficiency. For this project, we will carefully integrate features that facilitate smooth and organized evacuations, including strategically placed median openings and a multi-use path that can
accommodate temporary emergency vehicle traffic.

Our experience includes working on the Butte
County Community Evacuation Planning Project,
where we developed comprehensive evacuation
planning strategies. By applying this expertise,
we enhance the project’s ability to support effective
emergency response and evacuation when needed, and tie
into the regional emergency evacuation plan.

We also recognize that medians may impede evacuation
plans by restricting lane reversibility, limiting emergency vehicle access, and creating potential bottlenecks. To
mitigate these challenges, we will work with the City to strategically place median openings. We will consider other options, such as using low profile medians with mountable curbs, to prevent unnecessary reduction in lane capacity or emergency maneuverability. These measures help maintain flexibility in evacuation scenarios while preserving the intended safety benefits of the separation.

The proposed multi-use path will be designed with flexibility in mind, allowing for the temporary accommodation of vehicles, including emergency responders and evacuees, during critical evacuation scenarios. The multi-use path’s structural section will be reinforced to support vehicular traffic, maintaining the path as an effective part of the overall evacuation plan when needed. We will also coordinate with utility owners to relocate facilities that may block emergency responders and the public during an evacuation.

RIGHT OF WAY
The project area presents several right of way (ROW)
challenges as discussed below.

RESIDENTIAL IMPACTS
Improvements are primarily proposed along residential
areas. Several sections of the corridor pass through older, historic neighborhoods where lots are fully developed,
with buildings built close to, or up against, the public ROW.

Many local businesses, establishments, and residences in these historic neighborhoods lack on-site parking or face ADA accessibility challenges due to topography, relying on the street for parking and access.

CALTRANS COORDINATION
The Project will encroach into Caltrans ROW at the Oro Dam Boulevard intersection (SR 162), requiring coordination with Caltrans to obtain encroachment permit and other approvals. With the federal funds involved, the project will be subject to the Caltrans ROW Certification process. A Right of Way Data Sheet (RWDS) will be prepared for Caltrans concurrence.

Our team is well versed in this process and can help guide the City from inception to authorization.

MARK THOMAS

ROW ACQUISITION
Based on the currently available ROW mapping, the
proposed improvements will require ROW acquisition
for 60 parcels. Moreover, relocation of utility poles may require new easements. We expect the number of ROW
acquisitions will be refined during the development of
the 30% design with detailed ROW mapping. However,
the ROW acquisition process lies on the critical path of the project, and we will need to work collaboratively
with the City and property owners to identify and
evaluate potential impacts and implement avoidance or
minimization measures early to avoid schedule delays
and potentially costly rework during the ROW
acquisition and PS&E phases.

Prior to starting the ROW acquisition process, we will
collaborate with the City to optimize the cross-section to minimize the ROW impact as much as practicable.

Retaining walls will be considered at locations to reduce impacts to homes, businesses, parking lots and yards.

ROW PLANNING
Monument will work with the design and survey team
in the planning phase to make certain the area required for the project is truly necessary. Monument will evaluate the potential ROW requirements, affected parcels and
associated capital costs. At that point, we will complete a detailed per parcel budget that can be used as the basis for the ROW funds to provide cost certainty to support the ATP grant application and eventual request for ROW funds from Caltrans.

While the survey team is defining the existing property boundaries adjacent to the project area, Monument will
begin to develop a project-specific ROW plan. This plan will provide a detailed scope, cost, and schedule for the project along with the various risk and quality control expectations.

Roles and responsibilities will be defined, and key decision points and decision makers will be defined.

ROW CERTIFICATION
With all of the rights in-hand necessary for construction, Monument will prepare and submit to Caltrans, and FHWA, if necessary, a ROW certification form and other required documents in accordance with the Caltrans Right of Way
Manual and FHWA requirements.

The schedule for ROW certification is dependent
on availability of ROW funds that have yet to be
obligated. Our proposed project schedule shows
an anticipated award of grant funds for ROW and
construction with ATP Cycle 8 in December 2026.

The earliest ROW acquisition funds are anticipated
to be available is June 2027. Therefore, ROW
Certification is anticipated in August 2028 with RFA
for construction prior to December 2028.

UTILITIES
One of the key aspects of the project is identifying the utilities within the project limits to determine if any relocation or adjustments are necessary. There is a need to relocate utility poles within the limits of the new multi-use pathway and sidewalks. Also, utility pole relocation may be required to keep the evacuation route clear during an emergency
Advancing coordination with PG&E for the relocation
of utility poles in conflict with the multi-use pathway is critical, as completion of design and relocation by
PG&E can take over one year to complete. Additional
time to complete relocations of PG&E facilities can be
required during construction if PG&E work crews are
reassigned to emergency response projects elsewhere. To help save time, Mark Thomas will utilize the topographic and right of way surveys we completed during the prior phase of project development to initiate early coordination process with PG&E, as one of our early items of work.

A valuable lesson learned from our previous SR 162 Project is the importance of accurately mapping underground
utilities and identifying the need for adjustment or relocation early in the design process to avoid complications during construction. To achieve this, we will employ more accurate methods to positively identify existing utilities within the project limits. Caltrans Project Development Procedures Manual (Ch. 17, Section 2–Utility Policies) requires positive location information for underground high-priority utilities (i.e., natural gas pipelines greater than six inches in diameter, or with normal operating pressures greater than 60 psig, and high-voltage electric supply lines, conductors, or cables that have a potential to ground of greater than or equal to 60 kV) if the project involves excavations greater than six inches deep beyond the existing roadbed limits or digging beyond the limits of the existing pavement structural section within the roadbed. These procedures must be applied to all Local Assistance projects.

As an optional service, our firm has subsurface utility exploration (SUE) capabilities to scan utilities that will locate and provide horizontal locations for underground utilities along the length of the project corridor. We are proposing to conduct potholing to supplement our utility mapping
methods to provide positive identifications for underground utilities. It is anticipated that 40 potholes will be necessary.

This approach will help provide a smooth construction
process and may lead to cost savings during
construction. Coordination with Caltrans Local Assistance will be required to prepare utility certification packages, including the Notice to Owner, Reports of Investigation, and Utility Agreements, for utilities requiring relocation.

Timing preparation of utility certification documents is key and needs to be coordinated with construction funding
deadlines and anticipated timeframes to complete the
work to ensure utilities can be relocated in a timely manner.

ENVIRONMENTAL
Based on the preliminary environmental analysis
conducted for the development of this proposal, key
environmental issues to be addressed as part of this project are described below.

The environmental clearance involves completing the City’s California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) process and providing technical assistance to Caltrans Local Assistance Environmental staff as they complete Federal Highway
Administration National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Delegation requirements.

Our environmental team led by Gallaway has
long-established relationships with Caltrans Local
Assistance technical reviewers, with recent experience
processing roadway and similar complete streets
projects. The project is anticipated to receive federal funds; therefore, the project will include environmental review and clearance for both CEQA and NEPA. With federal funding, the environmental process will involve the Caltrans Local Assistance Program as lead agency for NEPA. The City will act as lead agency for CEQA.

Based on our understanding, the planning and design
schedule will be accelerated to better position the project for ATP Cycle 8 Grant funds. Therefore, we anticipate
early preparation of the technical studies required for environmental review, concurrent with the preliminary
design. Close coordination with the project team will make certain that refinements to the project design can be
incorporated into the environmental analysis.

ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNICAL STUDIES
As the project runs through historic neighborhoods in
the City of Oroville and involves potential acquisition of right of way from adjacent properties, we anticipate that an Archaeological Survey Report (ASR) will be
needed to document the archaeological resources for
compliance with NEPA and Section 106. This information
would also support the CEQA Initial Study/Mitigated
Negative Declaration (IS/MND). We will prepare a Historic Property Survey Report (HPSR) that summarizes the
findings documented in the ASR and Historical Resources Evaluation Report (HRER), if required.

HISTORIC BUILT ENVIRONMENT RESOURCES
As indicated by the records search results obtained from the Northwest Information Center, built environment
resources are present along the proposed trail alignment.

Caltrans will likely require preparation of a HRER to
evaluate the historical significance of any resources
where a portion of its property boundary is included in the proposed project alignment or whose setting would
potentially be affected by the project. Our team will
prepare an Area of Potential Effects (APE) map to Caltrans standards which will include built environment resources in and adjacent to the project alignment. The project’s limited potential to affect built environment resources will be taken into consideration and, wherever possible, these resources will be excluded from the APE. If research (subject to Caltrans concurrence) indicates that there will be no effect to built environment resources, an HRER will not be required.

ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES
No previously identified built environment historic
properties are anticipated within the APE and it is
anticipated no historic properties or archaeological
resources will be identified as part of the HPSR effort.

Therefore, no Finding of Effect will be necessary.

TRIBAL CULTURAL RESOURCES
Consultation with the Native American tribal
representations will need to be conducted in compliance with Assembly Bill 52 and Section 106 of the National
Historic Preservation Act. We will conduct a records
search at the California Historical Resources Information System’s Northeast Information Center located at Chico
State University for previously conducted cultural resources studies and previously recorded resources that may occur within or adjacent to the project limits. We will contact the California Native American Heritage Commission with a
request for a search of their Sacred Lands files and contact information for local Native American representatives.

BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES
We anticipate that a Natural Environment Study (NES) and a Delineation of Aquatic Resources will be required for compliance with NEPA if jurisdictional waters appear within the APE. The analysis from these studies would also be
incorporated in the CEQA IS/MND.

Key biological topics include:

CREEKS, STREAMS AND RIPARIAN AREAS
The project alignment approaches the Feather River and
Thermalito Canal, while crossing other streams between
Oro Dam Boulevard and Mitchell Avenue that are
potentially subject to jurisdiction by the USACE, CDFW, DWR, and Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB).

Permit applications from these agencies would be required for impacts to the water courses and if removal of trees and vegetation, which would be considered riparian
vegetation, are necessary. Coordination with the design team will be conducted to avoid impacts that trigger
regulatory agency permits for this project.

SEASONAL WETLANDS
In addition to the drainage crossings, it appears that
there may be waters of the United States located on
Table Mountain Boulevard in the vicinity of Mono Avenue and Jasmine Court, within the grasslands east of Table
Mountain Boulevard. Impacts to this feature would also
require permits from the Corps and/or RWQCB under
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act.

We anticipate that Caltrans may require additional technical studies to address the following resources:

CONSTRUCTION NOISE, VIBRATION,

AIR QUALITY AND COMMUNITY IMPACTS
Due to the project’s proximity of potentially sensitive receptors, it is expected Caltrans will require preparation of Construction Noise and Vibration and Construction
Air Quality Memos. A Community Impact Assessment
Memo will be prepared to briefly discuss the project’s
consistency/compatibility with the existing and future land uses and plans that apply to the project area and identify the potential for the project to result in construction and long-term community impacts within the study area on
businesses, and populations.

SECTION 4F
Section 4(f) protects publicly owned land of parks,
recreational areas, and wildlife refuges and historic sites of national, state, or local significance on public or private land. Section 4(f) specifies that sites of national, state, or local significance may be used for federally funded projects only if:
» There is no feasible and prudent avoidance alternative to the use of such land; and
» The action includes all possible planning to minimize harm to 4(f) lands resulting from such use.

There are project improvements that will be constructed adjacent to and potentially encroaching within the Feather River Fish Hatchery and Oroville City Elementary School, which are considered Section 4(f) resources. A Section 4(f) analysis is required. As the project is anticipated to result in only temporary modifications to these resources in
order to construct the proposed project improvements, we anticipate a Temporary Occupancy Memo will be required
for NEPA.

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Based on Caltrans guidelines and previous experience
working on similar projects with right of way acquisition, environmental concerns could pose a risk to project
development, including pesticide residues from agricultural land uses, aerially-deposited lead (ADL) associated with historical car emissions prior to the elimination of lead in gasoline, and hazardous materials associated with rail corridors. Caltrans will likely require preparation of an Initial Site Assessment and potentially a Preliminary Site Investigation, including subsurface testing of soils along the proposed trail alignment to identify and evaluated
potential effects associated with these hazardous materials.

VISUAL RESOURCES
The proposed project transverses potentially scenic
resources. The project would construct a new multi-use
pathway, sidewalks, landscape buffers and medians and
pedestrian crossing improvements. While the majority of these improvements would be at-grade and would have
limited visual impact to scenic resources along the corridor, Caltrans is anticipated to require preparation of a Visual Impact Memorandum to document visual issues associated
with the project.

ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTS
We understand that the proposed project will require
preparation of a Categorical Exclusion (CE) for
environmental compliance under NEPA. We will prepare
an IS/MND for compliance under CEQA, based on the
findings and evidence from the technical studies prepared above. In compliance with the Caltrans Local Assistance guidelines and manual for Federal Aid projects. We will closely follow the guidance of the Caltrans Standard
Environmental Reference (SER) to ensure completeness
of studies, address the potential concerns of reviewing agencies, and minimize the number of revisions and
re-submittals to Caltrans to accomplish environmental
approval in a timely manner.

ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITTING
If there are any impacts (i.e., permanent or temporary fill, excavation, etc.) to state- or federally-owned water, then permits will be required. If necessary, and as an optional task, our team will assist the City in obtaining the necessary regulatory permits for project construction, including a 1602 Streambed Alteration Agreement from the CDFW,
401 Water Quality Certification from the RWQCB, and a
Nationwide Permit from the USACE in compliance with
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act.

While the proposal identified an Environmental Review
Record as a task, that is a term typically associated with NEPA CEs that are performed outside of the Caltrans Local Assistance process and we are assuming that the intent
was to request an Environmental Commitment Record
(ECR) Upon receipt of all environmental permits (if needed) and agreements, we will draft an ECR to document all
mitigation measures, AMMs, conditions and requirements
of the environmental permits. This document will be
passed on to the engineering team as a live document so that the engineering conditions and requirements can be incorporated to the final PS&E.

MARK THOMAS

PERMITTING AND COORDINATION
Successful project implementation will require coordination with multiple agencies to comply with regulatory requirements and project goals. Obtaining required permits from some agencies will also be necessary. Below we identify and discuss agencies that we will coordinate with for potential permitting.

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT

OF WATER RESOURCES (DWR)
The Project will connect to existing bridges without
impacting the approaches to the Feather River Bridge
or the Thermalito Power Canal Bridge. However, it is
anticipated that construction is required to connect the new sidewalk to the existing sidewalk on the Thermalito Power Canal Bridge and to conform to existing sidewalks at the driveway entrance to the Feather River Fish Hatchery.

These buildings are part of the State Water Project
operated by DWR. The Project will not modify existing
hydrology, and the design will maintain the existing grade without major grading through the areas approaching the Thermalito Power Canal and Fish Hatchery driveway. Since the project impacts are minimal, an encroachment permit with DWR is anticipated.

No work is anticipated that would impact a Central Valley Flood Protection Board (CVFPB) facility. Therefore, no CVFPB permitting is anticipated for this project.

CALTRANS
The Project will encroach into Caltrans right of way at the Oro Dam Boulevard (SR 162) intersection, where proposed improvements include reconstruction of concrete curb,
gutter, curb ramps, and signal modifications to address ADA accessibility requirements. This will require coordination with Caltrans to obtain an encroachment permit for construction.

Our team has extensive experience collaborating with
Caltrans District 3 staff to successfully secure encroachment permits and obtain other necessary approvals.

UTILITY COMPANIES AND AGENCIES
The relocation and adjustment of utilities will be necessary to accommodate the proposed improvements. This
process will require close coordination with utility
companies and agencies to identify potential conflicts
and develop relocation plans. Early engagement with
utility companies and agencies will help ensure a smooth process, compliance with regulatory requirements, and
timely completion of the work.

BUTTE REGIONAL TRANSIT
Coordination with Butte Regional Transit, the operator
of the B-Line bus service, will be necessary to address temporary bus stops and finalize design elements as well as necessary coordination during construction.

The following are the bus stops that are located within the project limits:
» Washington Avenue/Oro Dam Blvd
» Washington Avenue/Yard Street
» Table Mountain Blvd/Grand Avenue
» Table Mountain Blvd /Nelson Avenue
» Table Mountain Blvd/Flying Cloud Drive
» Table Mountain Blvd/Jasmine Court
Relocation or replacement of bus shelters/stops at
Washington Avenue/Oro Dam Blvd, Table Mountain Blvd/
Grand Avenue, and Table Mountain Blvd/Flying Cloud Drive will be required to accommodate the project’s proposed
improvements. No additional bus stop amenities are
planned with the project.

UPRR AND CPUC
Modification to the bridge over UPRR is necessary
to accommodate the proposed improvements. The
modification includes widening the existing bridge barrier, which requires replacing the barrier on both sides of the bridge. This work requires coordination with UPRR and
CPUC. Coordination and approvals from UPRR can be a
challenging process. We have extensive experience
coordinating and receiving approvals from UPRR
and can anticipate the railroad’s requests during a
diagnostic meeting.

UPRR PROCESS
Approval of a General Order 88-B (GO 88-B) application
for the UPRR crossing will document the rail authority’s and CPUC’s acceptance of the project. Additionally,
to construct the improvements, a construction and
maintenance agreement between the City and UPRR will
need to be executed. The construction and maintenance
agreement finalizes approvals of all items coordinated and reviewed by UPRR. The execution of the construction
and maintenance agreement is required prior to
construction and is the highest risk to the project
schedule.

We will also work closely with the Diagnostic Team, formed of UPRR and CPUC staff, and their consultants. Mark
Thomas has built close relationships with the Diagnostic Team, and will leverage this experience to expedite railroad coordination and eliminate delays.

SUBMITTAL A
City submits a concept drawing to UPRR and the CPUC for review.

PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING (PE) AGREEMENT
UPRR requires an agreement with the City to allow UPRR staff to participate in the project and provide reviews. Based on project complexity, the reimbursement amount is expected to be $20,000 to $30,000.

FIELD DIAGNOSTIC MEETING
This meeting is required to discuss the City’s intent to construct improvements with UPRR and CPUC. The Diagnostic Team will review the concept drawings and identify any improvements that UPRR may require.

CONCEPT DRAWING REVIEW
Based on the field meeting, revisions to the proposed conceptual improvements are submitted to UPRR and CPUC for review and acceptance.

UPRR PROJECT ACCEPTANCE
After reviewing the concept, UPRR will issue a project concurrence letter, which will be required to process the GO 88-B application.

ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENT
An adopted environmental document (assumed CEQA IS/MND) is required as an attachment to the GO 88-B.

CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT
When all reviews (engineering and right of way) are complete, UPRR will draft an agreement for City review and execution.

GO 88-B SUBMITTAL
Completion of items above will allow the submittal of the GO 88-B. After a 45-day challenge period, the application is placed on the CPUC consent calendar for approval. An approved GO 88-B has a three-year shelf life to be completely constructed.

WORKING WITH THE UPRR PROCESS
As the schedule is highly impacted by UPRR and CPUC coordination, it is critical that rail delays be minimized. The flowchart below shows the steps needed to mitigate the risk of delays.

Exhibit A
794
Item 10.

WASHINGTON AVE. AND TABLE MOUNTAIN BLVD. COMPLETE STREETS PROJECT City of Oroville

MARK THOMAS

FUNDING ALLOCATION PROCEDURES
The City received $2.3M in Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) and $190,000 in Highway Infrastructure
Program (HIP) funds from BCAG for the preliminary
engineering phase. The intent of the City and BCAG is to leverage these funds to secure grant awards for PS&E,
right of way, and construction funds.

In 2024, Mark Thomas worked with the City to prepare
three ATP Cycle 7 grant applications for the project. The overall project application scored a 91. While a great score, the limited ATP dollars in Cycle 7 impacted the success of the application. BCAG and the City attended the debrief on the application and notes are available.

Mark Thomas will utilize the ATP Cycle 7 application
to pursue a Cycle 8 grant for the entire corridor. The
application will pursue PS&E, right of way, and construction funds. We will update the narratives to address comments from the California Transportation Commission (CTC),
highlight project attributes, and address new grant criteria.

We will also prepare updated maps, as necessary, to
address updated underserved communities criteria.

In addition to ATP Cycle 8, we will review other grant
programs. We will work with the City to identify and prepare an additional grant application to expand our opportunities beyond the ATP. Potential programs include the Safe Streets and Roads for All program, Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD) program, Local Partnership Program (LPP), and new Proposition 4 programs.

Our experience with the previous grant application will allow our team to expeditiously prepare the grant application.

The project already has federal CMAQ and HIP funding
and is expected to include federal ATP funding. These
funding sources require that we follow LAPM and LAPG
procedures for requesting funds, which include the
following documentation:
» Exhibit 3-A – Request for Authorization (RFA) package – Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP)
project listing
– NEPA document
– Exhibit 11-O – 23 CFR 667 Resiliency Evaluation
Certification (new requirement)
– Exhibit 9-D – DBE Contract Goal Methodology,
if required
» Exhibit 25-A package
– Exhibit 3-A RFA package
– CTC programming action or California Transportation
Improvement Program System (CTIPS) entry
– CEQA document
It takes approximately two months to get on the
CTC agenda for authorization of the funds. This
needs to be included in the schedule to avoid
any schedule delays. Mark Thomas has ongoing
experience providing funding allocation support for
state and federal programs, including most recently
on the Pioneer Road Improvement Project for the
City of Los Banos.

CONSTRUCTION STAGING
Construction staging is a critical component of the project and will be carefully considered throughout the preliminary corridor planning and early PS&E phases to identify the most effective staging options. AASHTO, Caltrans, NACTO, and relevant City plans will guide the development of
initial cross-section layouts and detailed views to illustrate staging concepts for public and stakeholder reviews.

A well-planned construction staging approach is essential, particularly in managing roadway and driveway access
impacts due to construction. Night work may be necessary in certain locations. Work in school zones will be planned around bell schedules to minimize disruptions to pick‑up and drop-off areas. In historic neighborhoods, where
residents depend on street parking, efforts will be made to mitigate parking loss as much as possible.

Noise impacts in residential areas will also be a key
consideration, with strategies implemented to minimize
disturbances through scheduling adjustments and
mitigation measures.

Clearly communicating with stakeholders will create a shared understanding of construction phasing and driveway access plans. In areas requiring full pavement reconstruction, specialized staging techniques will be critical to maintaining business accessibility.

Coordination with Butte Regional Transit, the operator
of the B-Line bus service, will be necessary to address temporary bus stops and finalize design elements as
well as necessary coordination during construction.

Bicycle and pedestrian accommodations or detours will
be identified and reviewed early in the design process.

Additionally, close coordination with UPRR will be crucial for modifications to the structure over the UPRR tracks.

Lessons learned from the SR 162 Mobility Improvements
Project will be incorporated to optimize staging methods, considering geotechnical recommendations and
addressing night work and noise concerns, particularly
in residential areas.

SCOPE OF WORK
Task 1 PROJECT MANAGEMENT

AND COMPLIANCE
Task 1.1 PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Mark Thomas will provide ongoing general project
management for this project, including coordinating
subconsultant activities and submittals. General project management will also include organizing and maintaining files and records to track correspondence, contractual
matters, data requests, transmittals, and other pertinent data. Mark Thomas will prepare monthly invoices including a monthly progress report and budget spreadsheet that
will show current and previously billed tasks.

Mark Thomas will coordinate design activities with
subconsultant team members and stakeholders through
regular communication via telephone calls, emails, and
other correspondence. We will also prepare, update,
maintain, and distribute a Critical Path Method (CPM)
schedule for task order activities. Schedule updates will be distributed on a monthly basis at a minimum. The initial schedule will be prepared for and approved by City staff at the outset of the project. The duration of this project is 32 months to prepare preliminary and final design packages and to provide support for public outreach efforts, utility relocations, right of way acquisition, and bidding. This duration does not include support during the construction phase of the project.

Mark Thomas will identify potential risks that could impact the project’s schedule, budget, or scope. Mitigation
strategies will be developed to minimize or eliminate
potential impacts, ensuring project continuity and efficiency.

All identified risks, assessments, and mitigation measures will be documented in a Risk Register for ongoing monitoring and management throughout the project lifecycle.

Task 1.2 MEETINGS
Mark Thomas will attend a project kick-off meeting
and monthly coordination meetings with the City as
needed. In general, it is assumed these meetings will
be attended via Microsoft Teams or another web-based
meeting application. Coordination check-in meetings
will include representatives from Mark Thomas, City
staff, and other stakeholders as directed by the City. This task includes preparation of loose agendas and a log of action items. The project CPM schedule identified below will be distributed and reviewed during coordination
meetings along with updates on various activities. Project development team (PDT) meetings with multiple project
team, City staff, and stakeholders may take the place of the monthly coordination meetings when needed.

Mark Thomas will coordinate and attend up to forty (40) coordination meetings with the City and other agencies
(i.e., Caltrans, DWR, and BCAG) to resolve technical issues.

Mark Thomas will participate and provide support for public workshops, property owner meetings, and City Council
presentations as included elsewhere in this Scope of Work.

Task 1.3 QUALITY CONTROL
The Mark Thomas Quality Control plan consists of
established procedures for performing the work (which
are re-assessed with each project), including methods
for design calculations, establishing appropriate levels of design development for intermediate submittals,
identification of required plan checks, design checklists, and methods of project documentation. Our QC/QA
Manager will implement and maintain these quality control procedures during the preparation of plans and documents throughout design.

Task 1.4 STAKEHOLDER DATABASE AND

OUTREACH MANAGEMENT
As a subconsultant to Mark Thomas, AIM will attend a
project kick-off meeting and up to 6 project team meetings.

Other project management tasks may include providing
strategic advice and counsel, attending other projectrelated meetings, monitoring team communications, and reviewing project materials and reports.

Public Engagement Plan
Before the start of the community engagement, AIM
will submit a Community Engagement Plan to City staff
for review, outlining a detailed schedule of events, social media outreach, outreach collateral, and CBO lists to meet with. AIM will ensure that the plan specifies a targeted engagement plan for disadvantaged and underrepresented
communities throughout the planning process to ensure
the project team understands their needs and incorporates their priorities into the plan.

AIM will develop and maintain a property owner/
stakeholder database throughout the project. This
database will include stakeholder names, contact
information, the preferred method of contact, and
potential key concerns and/or areas of project interest.

AIM will work with the City to identify key stakeholders and property owners as needed. AIM will document and
respond to all electronic inquiries through email and social media channels.

Exhibit A
796
Item 10.

WASHINGTON AVE. AND TABLE MOUNTAIN BLVD. COMPLETE STREETS PROJECT City of Oroville

MARK THOMAS

Brochures, fact sheets, and flyers can be issued to educate the community about the project, advertise all activities and meetings, and provide notification of upcoming
construction events. AIM will develop all materials utilizing a template consistent with the project brand, which can be easily updated, printed, and/or distributed electronically and placed on the project webpage. All materials will be translated into English, Spanish, Russian, and Ukrainian.

AIM will prepare and mail project information flyers to properties and tenants in the vicinity of the project up to two times during the project development to update the
constituents of the project. The mailer will include, but is not limited to, project description, aesthetics, access issues, schedule, anticipated date for public meetings, and schedule. AIM will mail the postcard to residences and
property owners in the vicinity identified by the City.

Task 1.5 PUBLIC WORKSHOPS
AIM will coordinate and facilitate eight in-person public outreach meetings to the local community and adjacent
residents and businesses. These stakeholders will be
contacted early in the project development so that the
appropriate modifications to the project can be included in the design. AIM proposes four (4) pop-up meetings
and four (4) community/public meetings.

Key issues to address during the public meetings:
» Provide a project design update and any associated
impacts
» Gather feedback on design
» Provide an update on the construction phase
Pop-up workshops can provide an opportunity to advertise the major touchpoints and to get early input before each engagement event. It is also an effective technique to meet the community where they are already gathering. Each
pop-up workshop will occur at a community destination,
local event, or high-pedestrian key shopping center. AIM recommends one round of two pop-up events during the
early design phase and two during the final design.

AIM will plan, provide all supplies, and coordinate all logistics for the four pop-up workshops. AIM will develop engagement activities, board displays, interactive
community engagement activities, informational fact sheets and brochures, and comment cards.

AIM will develop meeting content and format, coordinate logistics, and facilitate four community-wide in-person workshops. AIM will develop informational materials
regarding the project for the meetings. AIM will record all comments and questions from the meeting and
respond when appropriate while developing an FAQ list
for the website. Attendees will be asked to sign in and provide their contact information and will be added to the notification distribution list. AIM will compile a meeting summary within 2 weeks of each meeting.

Notifications for Community Workshops (4)
AIM will coordinate with the City and the project team to ensure that each workshop is well-advertised. In addition, AIM will work with the City’s existing communication
channels to disseminate project information and ensure
that the community is informed throughout the project’s duration. AIM will provide content to the City for posting to the project webpage, calendar, and social media channels.

Task 1.6 CITY COUNCIL PRESENTATIONS
Mark Thomas will assist City staff with the preparation for and execution of up to two (2) presentations to the City Council. City Council meetings will be scheduled to concur with development of the construction phasing plan and
environmental clearance document and with development
of the final design plan.

Anticipated team’s roles and responsibilities:
» Mark Thomas and City staff will develop the purpose
and desired outcome for the presentation
» Mark Thomas will attend the meeting and co-facilitate the discussion as needed
» Mark Thomas will prepare summary notes
Task 1.7 FUNDING APPLICATION

SUPPORT
Mark Thomas will prepare one (1) ATP Cycle 8 Grant
Application anticipated to be released in June 2026,
addressing debrief comments from the California
Transportation Commission. We will prepare one (1) other state or federal grant application to be identified at a later date. The applications will be prepared in accordance to the grant program guidelines and requirements. The documents prepared for the applications will include narratives, vicinity maps, collision diagrams, striping plans, demonstrative exhibits, letters of support, and other application
requirements. Mark Thomas will coordinate support with
stakeholders as identified by the City. We will also package and submit the grant applications on behalf of the City.

Task 2 DATA COLLECTION
Task 2.1 PROJECT INITIATION

AND SITE VISITS
Mark Thomas will coordinate the project kick-off meeting with the City and members of the design team to discuss the project background, scope, concepts, schedule, project management, potential stakeholders and issues, outreach opportunities, and expectations. Mark Thomas will provide a project information gathering checklist to collect data elements needed for the design, including GIS mapping
information, City-owned facility maps, utility contacts, asbuilt and planned improvement drawings, and available traffic counts and speed studies.

The data gathering process will include a review of the existing site characteristics. Mark Thomas will conduct site visits and take photographic inventory of existing conditions to reference during the design process and
make observations related to sight distance at pedestrian crossings, ADA compliance, and identify potential conflicts with existing utilities and privately-owned improvements within the public right of way. For estimating purposes, 2 days of site visits have been assumed to complete the field reviews. A photo log will be prepared and submitted to the City electronically.

Task 2.2 SURVEY AND MAPPING
Task 2.2.1 CONTROL SURVEYS
Mark Thomas will establish and set project control along Washington Avenue and Table Mountain Boulevard
between Oro Dam Boulevard and Thermalito Power Canal.

Horizontal project control will be based on the California Coordinate System of 1983 (CCS83), Zone 2, and the
vertical datum will be based on NAVD88. Durable project control will be set with the intention of being used through the construction phase. Mark Thomas field crews will set up to twenty-four (24) ground control targets to support collection of Mobile Terrestrial Lidar Scan (MTLS) data.

A control statement with point values and datums used will be provided.

Task 2.2.2 RECORD LEVEL RIGHT OF WAY

MAPPING
Mark Thomas will plot the existing right of way along
Washington Avenue and Table Mountain Boulevard
between Oro Dam Boulevard and Thermalito Power Canal
(approximately 2.25 miles) based on record information
shown on survey maps along with a sample of boundary
monuments collected in the field. This task includes research for record maps and supporting documents conducted at
the County, along with coordination with Caltrans.

Task 2.2.3 TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEYS

AND ORTHOIMAGERY
MTLS data will be collected along the project corridor
(approximately 2.25 miles, from back of walk to back of walk or 10 feet past edge of pavement where no sidewalk exists). It is assumed data will not be needed along the Feather River Bridge, only at the beginning and end of the bridge. MTLS technology allows mass collection of designlevel topography from a vehicle moving with traffic. This technology also allows a reduction in survey crew exposure to motor vehicles, thus increasing safety. From the MTLS survey, break lines and point features will be extracted and then compiled into an AutoCAD 2022 drawing with
DTM. Topography will be shown at 50 scale with 1 foot
contour intervals. As this will be a reference for design, it is assumed no sheets will be produced.

Mark Thomas has allocated up to ten (10) days (at 10
hours per day) of field crew time to conduct supplemental topographic surveys and collect data on above-ground
surface-visible utilities and manhole structure inverts and flow direction along the project corridor. Supplemental topographic survey will be limited to 5 feet past the back of walk. From the LiDAR scan data and supplemental
topographic survey, Mark Thomas will compile a
topographic base map of the project corridor and create a surface, complete with break lines, to be used for design.

Task 2.2.4 UTILITY MAPPING
Mark Thomas will perform Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) Quality Level D (QL-D) surveys. This will consist of retrieving a list of utility owners that may be affected by the project. Based on the list Mark Thomas will send out utility request letters (“A” letters) and conduct record research.

Mark Thomas will then create and update a utility matrix for the project to track the status of record requests.

All mapping that will be obtained for this task will be sent to the design team and the matrix will be provided. Mark Thomas will follow up once with utility companies that have not responded and provide additional mapping received
60 days after A letters.

MARK THOMAS

Mark Thomas will take the utility mapping provided and
plot it into a utility base map. Underground utility mark-out and detection is excluded under this scope of work. Utilities will be drafted against above-ground surface-visible
utilities collected during topographic surveys and updated once supplemental surveys are completed.

This task includes time for Mark Thomas field staff to
collect locations of up to forty (40) potholes. Traffic control to complete recording pothole locations has been included in ODCs.

Task 3 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES

AND DOCUMENTATION
Task 3.1 PROJECT INITIATION,

PROJECT DESCRIPTION,

PES, AND FIELD REVIEW
As a subconsultant to Mark Thomas, Gallaway Enterprises (Gallaway) will attend a project kick-off meeting to discuss communication and information exchange protocols,
review project work schedules, and confirm current
project description applicability for use in all of the technical studies, CEQA/NEPA documentation, and permit
applications. It is our experience from working on similar projects that use of a consistent project description in all technical studies facilitates efficiency, defensible data analysis, and consistent impact determinations during the permitting process.

Gallaway will help the project team develop an Area of
Potential Effects (APE) map. Gallaway will prepare the
Preliminary Environmental Study (PES) forms and attend
the field review meetings. This task will include:
» Database research (FEMA, GeoTracker, species lists,
air quality, etc)
» Initial mapping
» Conducting field visits to each site to conduct
preliminary field investigations of environmental
resources
» Obtaining current photographs
» Developing initial determinations on the types and level of impacts required to complete a PES form
The draft PES forms will be circulated to the project team and then to Caltrans for review and approval. Some of the technical documentation that is assumed for the proposed project may be different than what is required by Caltrans.

Therefore, if there are differences between assumptions and requirements identified in the approved PES,
re-scoping may be required.

Mark Thomas will prepare Field Review forms to include
with the Field Review and PES package submitted to
Caltrans. We will prepare:
» Exhibit 7B–Field Review Form
» Exhibit 7C–Roadway Data Sheet
» Exhibit 7G–Field Review Attendance Roster
» Exhibit 13E–Preliminary Engineering Right of Way
Checklist
Field Review forms will be updated based on Caltrans
comments received from the Field Review and resubmitted with the updated PES for Caltrans’ approval.

Task 3.2 TECHNICAL STUDIES
Task 3.2.1 NATURAL ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY
Gallaway will prepare a draft Natural Environmental Study (NES) for the APE. The NES document will be prepared
taking into consideration the information obtained from the respective wetland delineations, field surveys, project specific impacts, and mitigation. Gallaway will ensure that surveys are conducted within the appropriate survey
windows even if the project description is not finalized.

Gallaway will document all vegetation communities and
plant species observed on-site. The NES report will follow Caltrans’ most recent guidance and document formats.

Project plans must be completed to the degree that
impacts to waters of the United States (WOTUS) and native trees can be accurately estimated. Gallaway assumes that Mark Thomas will identify tree locations and DBH on the design plans.

Task 3.2.2 DELINEATION

OF AQUATIC RESOURCES
Delineations of Aquatic Resources are required if
jurisdictional waters occur within the APE. It appears
that there may be WOTUS located on Table Mountain
Boulevard in the vicinity of Mono Avenue and Jasmine
Court. All WOTUS that meet the USACE criteria will be
delineated within the APE. All wetland resources will be mapped and typed according to USACE Feb 2016 standard
mapping standards. A formal Delineation of Waters of the U.S. and Aquatic Resources report per the 1987 Wetland
Delineation Manual and Regional Supplement to the
USACE Wetland Delineation Manual: Arid West Region
(2008, version 2) will be submitted to the client.

The Delineation of Waters of the U.S. will be considered draft until the USACE provides a jurisdictional
determination. The delineation report will also be
compliant with the following regulatory guidance
documents and standards:
» A Field Guide to the Identification of the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM) in the Arid West Region of the
Western United States, August 2008
» Map and Drawing Standards for the South Pacific
Division Regulatory Program, February 2016
» September 2008 Regional Supplement to the USACE
Wetland Delineation Manual: Arid West Region
(version 2.0)
» USACE Minimum Standards for Acceptance of Aquatic
Resource Delineation Reports, January 2016
Task 3.2.3 ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY REPORT

AND HISTORIC PROPERTIES SURVEY
REPORT
Gallaway will coordinate with sub-contractor Genesis
Society to prepare the Archaeological Survey Report
(ASR) and Historic Properties Survey Report (HPSR)
documentation for the project site. This will include:
» Conducting Records Searches involving Records
maintained by the Northeast Information Center (NEIC)
at CSU, Chico
» Consulting with the Native American Heritage
Commission regarding Sacred Land listings and with
local Native American representatives for information
they may provide concerning prehistoric sites and
possible traditional use areas within or near the APEs
» Conducting pedestrian archaeological survey (for prehistoric and historic archaeological sites) within the APEs
» Preparation of an ASR and HPSR documentation,
including relevant Primary Records (State DP 523 forms) for prehistoric and historic-era archaeological sites
identified during the pedestrian field survey
» Delivery of final inventory reports to NEIC and Gallaway In the event that additional architectural documentation in the form of an Historic Resource Evaluation Report (HRER) is identified as a requirement from Caltrans during the PES process, additional scoping and task identification will be required. Gallaway will coordinate and facilitate the review of documents between Mark Thomas, Caltrans, and the City.

Task 3.2.4 VISUAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT (VIA)

TECHNICAL MEMO
Gallaway will prepare a VIA questionnaire which calculates a score based on general inputs and provides a scale to determine the appropriate VIA level. It is assumed that the resulting VIA questionnaire score will be equal to or less than 28 resulting in the applicability of the use of a VIA Memo.

Mark Thomas will prepare a draft and final VIA Memo
for improvements related to the landscape and visual
conditions of the corridor within the project limits. The memo will include a description of existing conditions
and site setting, and provide recommendations regarding plant types, placement, physical character, and visual
impacts of landscape improvements. The VIA Memo will
document the existing visual quality of the surrounding environment and will include up to two (2) key views
with two photo simulation alternatives for each key view, and up to two (2) illustrative sections. Other visualization exhibits may be required to illustrate the proposed project alternatives, evaluate the expected visual change caused by a project, assess public reaction to the expected change, identify visual impacts, and recommend measures to
avoid, minimize or mitigate adverse visual impacts. These additional exhibits may be added as an optional service.

Task 3.2.5 COMMUNITY IMPACT ASSESSMENT
MEMO
Gallaway will prepare a Community Impact Assessment
Memo (CIM) in accordance with the Caltrans Volume 1,
Chapter 24 of the Standard Environmental Reference (SER).

While similar to a Community Impact Assessment, a CIM
can be used to simply state there are no community issues or resources of concern in the project area. It can also state that community resources exist, but studies show there are no, or minimal, potential impacts from the project.

Task 3.2.6 INITIAL SITE ASSESSMENT
As a subconsultant to Mark Thomas, Crawford will prepare an Initial Site Assessment (ISA) to evaluate the Washington Avenue and Table Mountain Boulevard alignment (project
alignment) and adjacent properties for evidence of
recognized environmental conditions (RECs) and/or potential RECs that may significantly impact the project. The ISA will include Washington Avenue from Oro Dam Boulevard at the southern limit to Montgomery Street, and Table Mountain Boulevard between Riverview Terrace Drive and County
Center Drive at the northern limit. The Feather River Bridge is not included in this alignment. The ISA will be prepared in accordance with the procedures set forth in ASTM E1527‑21 and Caltrans’ Standard Environmental Reference, Chapter 10, and will include the following elements.

Physical Setting Review
The ISA review will include a summary of geologic
conditions (including faulting and naturally occurring
asbestos, if applicable) underlying the subject property or in the project site vicinity, based on readily available geologic mapping from the US Geological Survey and the California Geological Survey; and a summary of hydrogeologic
conditions (including depth to groundwater and regional groundwater flow, if readily available) based on information from websites maintained by the State of California.

Exhibit A
800
Item 10.

WASHINGTON AVE. AND TABLE MOUNTAIN BLVD. COMPLETE STREETS PROJECT City of Oroville

MARK THOMAS

Historical Land Use Review
Environmental Risk Information Service (ERIS) will provide historical aerial photographs, historical USGS topographic maps, city directories, and Sanborn fire insurance maps (where available) for the subject property and vicinity.

Crawford will review this information to develop a history of general property uses for the subject property and
surrounding parcels back to the subject property’s first development, or 1940, whichever is earlier.

Records Review
ERIS will also conduct a computerized search of
reasonable, ascertainable, federal, state, local, and tribal environmental agency database records. These database
records will be reviewed for information pertaining to the subject property, and properties within ASTM standard
search radii applicable to each database. The databases searched will include, at a minimum, all databases specified in ASTM E1527‑21.

Site Reconnaissance and Sample Collection
Crawford will perform a driving and walking reconnaissance of the subject parcel and vicinity to observe current
conditions. Conditions on adjacent parcels will be observed from the public right of way. The reconnaissance will include observations of geologic, hydrogeologic, and topographic conditions; uses and storage of hazardous materials and wastes within and adjacent to the project alignment;
and general conditions with regard to the presence of
underground and above ground storage tanks, drums, wells, electrical equipment, stockpiled soil, vegetation, odors, and sewage/waste disposal, as appropriate.

Crawford will also collect soil samples to screen for aeriallydeposited lead in soil along the shoulders of Washington Avenue and Table Mountain Boulevard. Samples of native
soil will be collected immediately adjacent to ADA ramps scheduled for replacement, or from existing sidewalk gaps.

Crawford will mark sample locations for USA/811 clearance during the ISA site reconnaissance.

A Crawford sampling technician will return to the site to collect soil samples from up to twelve locations along
Washington Avenue and twelve locations along Table
Mountain Boulevard. Soil samples will be collected at depths of 0‑6", 12"-18", and 24"-30" below ground surface (total of 54 soil samples). Samples will be collected with a hand auger. All samples will be analyzed for total lead by EPA Method 6010, and six samples (two from each street) will be analyzed for pH by EPA Method 9045. Samples with total
lead concentrations that exceed 50 milligrams/kilogram
will be further analyzed for soluble lead using the WET and TCLP methods. For budgeting purposes, we assume that 18 soil samples will require additional analysis for soluble lead.

Analytical results will be included in the ISA Report.

Interviews
Where warranted by observations and data, Crawford
will make reasonable attempts to interview current and
past property owners or tenants of adjacent properties, if from the property of the project alignment environmental impact is suspected, where names and contact information are provided. Crawford many also contact City or Butte
County Environmental Health Department to inquire
about knowledge pertaining to the project alignment or
properties in the site vicinity, as warranted by the findings and reconnaissance.

Report of Findings
An ISA report documenting our assessment will be
prepared. The report will include, but not necessarily be limited to, the following:
» Description of the subject property and vicinity
» Summary of the physical setting, local geologic
conditions, and hydrogeologic conditions
» Summary of the historical record review
and historical site usage
» Findings from the records review
» Site reconnaissance observations
» Interview results
» Photographs of significant items of environmental
concern observed during the site reconnaissance
(if any)
» Findings, Opinions, and Conclusions on potential
impacts, including a summary of RECs, and a discussion
of significant data gaps and data failures
» Recommendations, as warranted by the findings for
additional investigation and/or sampling for potentially hazardous materials
Task 3.3 CEQA/NEPA DOCUMENTATION

AND ENVIRONMENTAL

COMMITMENT RECORD
Gallaway will provide CEQA and NEPA services as well
as assistance with responding to public and agency
comments. Based on our understanding of the proposed
project a §1502(c) CEQA Categorical Exemption is the
appropriate level of CEQA review. Gallaway will provide assistance and peer review on the Categorical Exemption/ Notice of Exemption process. We see our role in this
process as providing a draft Notice of Exemption form
for City staff to sign, as the City can typically process Categorical Exemptions without outside assistance.

In regards to NEPA clearance, Caltrans, as the FHWA
designated Lead Agency, typically handles all NEPA
documentation utilizing supporting technical studies such as the NES and the ASR/HPSR. Gallaway will ensure that all technical studies comply with Caltrans and NEPA standards.

Exhibit A
801
Item 10.

WASHINGTON AVE. AND TABLE MOUNTAIN BLVD. COMPLETE STREETS PROJECT City of Oroville

MARK THOMAS

While the proposal identified an Environmental Review Record as a task, that is a term typically associated with NEPA CEs that are performed outside of the Caltrans Local Assistance process and we are assuming that the intent was to request an Environmental Commitment Record (ECR). Upon receipt
of all environmental permits and agreements, Gallaway will draft an ECR to document all mitigation measures, AMMs, conditions, and requirements of the environmental permits.

This document will be passed on to the engineering team as a live document so that the engineering conditions and requirements can be incorporated.

Task 3.4 ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITTING
(OPTIONAL)
Environmental permitting is currently not included in the scope of work for the project. If necessary, and as optional tasks to be completed for an additional fee upon approval from the City, Gallaway will provide the following tasks:

Task 3.4.1 CLEAN WATER ACT
& USACE PERMIT FACILITATION
Gallaway assumes that the proposed project will require a Clean Water Act (CWA) § 404 Permit from the USACE.

Projects of this nature are generally covered by Nationwide Permit (NWP) 14 (Linear Transportation Projects). NWP 14 applies to activities required for the construction, expansion, modification, or improvement of linear transportation
project in WOTUS. Currently, for linear transportation
projects in non-tidal waters, the discharge cannot cause the loss of greater than 1/2 acre of WOTUS. Gallaway will prepare the appropriate USACE permit application based on 60%
design and when it becomes available. In the event that impacts to WOTUS are less than 1/10 of an acre there may be the opportunity to process the §404 permit under what is referred to as a non-reporting NWP.

Task 3.4.2 CLEAN WATER ACT & 401

REGIONAL WATER QUALITY BOARD

CERTIFICATION FACILITATION
Gallaway will prepare the §401 permit application for a Water Quality Certification from the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). The submittal will include the current §401 Certification application form, the RWQCB fee calculator spreadsheet, an alternatives analysis (see below), a copy of information that will be submitted as part of the §404 permit application, and CEQA Compliance/Notice of Determination.

Pre-application consultation will be conducted to
determine if any additional information will be required by the RWQCB. If any additional information is determined
to be required by the RWQCB (information to augment
the alternatives analysis), re-scoping may be necessary.

Gallaway will serve as the City’s representative during the application review process. Fees and scope for this task are based on current regulations in effect on the date of this proposal. If the RWCQB requests additional information
after submittal of the permit, a re-scope will be required.

The application must also demonstrate the project is the Least Environmentally Damaging Practical Alternative
(LEDPA).

To determine the LEDPA, the applicant must conduct an
alternative analysis that involves a review of both offsite and on-site alternatives (depending on the level of impacts) to demonstrate that the proposed project is the LEDPA. We assume that the project fit within the Tier 1 level of impacts and associated analysis. The City will be responsible for all RWQCB application fees, which are not included in this scope of work.

Task 3.4.3 SECTION 1602 STREAMBED

ALTERATION AGREEMENT FROM THE

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF FISH

AND WILDLIFE
Under the assumption that there are impacts to aquatic
features and/or vegetation that are regulated by CDFW,
Gallaway will prepare the §1602 Streambed Alternation
Agreement (SAA) application for submittal to CDFW via
the Environmental Permit Information Management System
(EPIMS) portal. The CDFW requires that construction
drawings, as applicable, are a minimum of 60% complete
and must accompany the permit application.

Prior to submission of the permit application, Gallaway may need to conduct a site visit with CDFW to verify that all desired information is included in our submittal. The cost of one site visit is included in our estimate. The submittal typically includes the §1602 SAA application form, copies of the USACE and RWQCB permit applications, and CEQA
Compliance/Notice of Determination. Gallaway will serve as the City’s representative during the application review process. Our cost estimate and scope for this task are based on current regulations in effect on the date of this proposal.

The City will be responsible for all CDFW application and mitigation fees, which are not included in this proposal.

Task 3.4.4 COMPENSATORY

MITIGATION FACILITATION
In order to fulfill the terms and conditions of the 404, 401, and 1602 permits and agreements, compensatory
mitigation will likely be required. Gallaway will work with Mark Thomas and the City to identify available options
to purchase credits which may be in the form of a private mitigation bank, proponent sponsored mitigation or the
National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF).

Task 4 UTILITY COORDINATION
Task 4.1 PREPARE CONFLICT MAPPING
Mark Thomas will utilize the preliminary utility mapping developed in Task 2.2.4 to prepare utility conflict maps (“B” Plans) and coordinate relocation designs with the
affected owners and will prepare “C – Notice to Owner”
letters notifying the utilities of the pending construction.

Should any relocations of private utility facilities be required, it is assumed that these designs will be provided by the private utility company. Mark Thomas will request a claim of liability letter from utility owners with facilities within the project limits requiring relocation.

Mark Thomas will make recommendations for potholing
locations.

Task 4.2 UTILITY COORDINATION

MEETINGS
Mark Thomas will coordinate and hold Utility Coordination Meetings with the City, Design Team, and impacted utility companies.

Task 4.3 MISC. UTILITY

DOCUMENTATION
Mark Thomas will prepare a Report of Investigation and
Notice to Owner for each utility company with facilities in the project limits following Chapter 14 of the Caltrans LAPM. Mark Thomas will coordinate with Caltrans District Utility Coordinator for review and approval prior to sending documents to the utility owners. Mark Thomas will prepare any required utility agreements if funds are exchanged or the City is liable for any portion of the relocations. Mark Thomas will also complete the utility portion of the
right of way certification.

Task 4.4 POTHOLING OF UTILITIES
Utility potholing may be required to identify potential conflicts with underground facilities and allow for advance coordination for design and scheduling of utility relocations needed by others (i.e., PG&E and AT&T) to construct the project improvements. Potential conflicts requiring the raising/lowering or relocation of existing utilities include the relocation and reconstruction of existing storm drain facilities, and relocating or adjusting utility boxes and covers to grade for new sidewalks and medians. Mark Thomas will select and utilize a qualified potholing company to provide positive horizontal location and verification of depth of existing subsurface utilities at locations identified as potential conflict points with the project.

Mark Thomas will perform potholes as part of this
scope of services. For budgetary purposes, we have
estimated potholes at up to 40 locations. However, the
overall number of potholes may change due to the
presence of underground utilities identified during the utility mapping task. Due to the congested nature of the corridor, it is assumed that each pothole will cost $2,000 with needed traffic control and pavement restoration.

Positive verification of existing utilities will still need to be conducted by the contractor at the start of construction to verify the locations and depths of existing facilities.

Mark Thomas shall task a field crew to survey the location of potholed utilities and provide the horizontal and vertical location of the reference points set by others (potholer) as described in Task 2.2.4 of the Scope of Work. This data will be updated in the utility base map and provided to the
engineering team to facilitate design. It is assumed that field crews will mobilize after all potholes have been completed.

Task 5 RIGHT OF WAY PHASE
& DETERMINATION
Task 5.1 ROW REQUIREMENTS
As a subconsultant to Mark Thomas, Monument will
review the right of way analysis prepared with the 30%
design, and coordinate with the Mark Thomas team to
identify potential right of way acquisitions resulting from updated designs. Additionally, Monument will update
information about existing conditions including ownership, land use, tenants, and existing encumbrances on affected properties. This will help the design team identify, and potentially avoid costly or long-lead acquisitions where possible.

The specific steps Monument will take to determine
impacts and estimate costs are as follows:

1. Review the right of way requirements identified
by the design team

2. Use publicly available data and other real estate
resources to confirm the ownership, land use, zoning,
lot size, and improvements for each affected property

3. Calculate the fee and/or easement area that will need to be acquired for each impacted property using data
from the design team and assessor parcel boundary
information

4. Perform a desktop inspection of properties to confirm the probable acquisition type (full, partial, temporary, etc.) including identifying existing uses to be relocated (if any).

5. Estimate the total capital cost of acquisition for
all parcels including real estate costs, relocation
assistance, severance damages, loss of goodwill,
fixtures and equipment, demolition, and clearance

6. Estimate the total support cost for all parcels including appraisal fees, condemnation costs, title and escrow
fees, environmental fees, and consultant fees as
necessary

7. Escalate costs to anticipated right of way
acquisition date

8. Document proposed acquisitions and resulting
costs in a Right of Way Data Sheet (Exhibit 17-EX21 from the Caltrans Right of Way Manual) for each alternative.

9. Incorporate Utility Relocation Costs prepared by
Mark Thomas into the Data Sheets

10. Update and finalize the Data Sheets based on
feedback from the Mark Thomas Team and the City
Right of way information gathered during preparation
of the cost estimate will also be used to support
preparation of the Environmental Document as needed.

Task 5.2 ROW RETRACEMENT (OPTIONAL)
Mark Thomas will conduct boundary surveys for up to sixty (60) parcels along the right of way of Washington Avenue and Table Mountain Boulevard between Oro Dam Boulevard
and Thermalito Power Canal. The right of way and side lot lines will be delineated based on record maps, vesting deeds, and an analysis of encumbrances, easements and other
supporting documents discovered in preliminary title reports.

Field surveys will be conducted to locate monuments of
record and other physical evidence that can be used to
retrace the existing right of way and side lot lines for parcels identified for acquisition. Cost to obtain up to sixty (60) preliminary title reports has been included in ODCs.

Task 5.3 APPRAISAL EXHIBITS (OPTIONAL)
As an optional task to be completed for an additional fee upon approval by the City, Mark Thomas will draft 11”x 17” appraisal exhibits showing the existing right of way and easements, property owner and APN, acquisition lines and take area in square feet and acreage (if applicable) . Mark Thomas will draft appraisal exhibits for each of the sixty (60) parcel impacted by the project.

Task 5.4 LEGAL DESCRIPTION AND PLATS
(OPTIONAL)
As an optional task to be completed for an additional fee upon approval by the City, Up to sixty (60) legal descriptions and 8.5”x11” plat will be drafted for permanent acquisition and another sixty (60) will be drafted for temporary construction easements. Legal descriptions and plat maps will undergo two technical reviews with the City before being signed and stamped by a Mark Thomas licensed land surveyor.

Task 5.5 APPRAISALS (OPTIONAL)
As an optional task to be completed for an additional fee upon approval by the City, Monument will conduct appraisals to support property acquisitions for the project. All appraisals and appraisal reviews for the acquisition of real property will be prepared in accordance with the 49 CFR Part 24 and with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). A single “self-contained” appraisal report will be prepared for each property acquisition that will contain relevant project-related data, subject property information, market comparable, and an analysis of the appraiser’s value conclusions.

Task 6 PRELIMINARY

ENGINEERING STUDIES
Task 6.1 TRAFFIC ANALYSIS
As a subconsultant to Mark Thomas, Fehr & Peers will manage the traffic analysis and maintain close contact with City staff and the engineering team throughout the project design phase.

The following scope of work reflects this level of effort.

Task 6.1.1 DATA COLLECTION
Fehr & Peers will collect multimodal (auto, pedestrian, and bicycle) traffic counts to document the existing intersection and corridor volumes and to inform potential roadway
reconfiguration alternatives developed in a later phase of the project. Prior to scheduling counts, we will confirm the locations and types of data collection with City staff.

We anticipate collecting the following:
» Daily Hose Counts: Daily volume, vehicle
classification, and travel speeds for all vehicles over a 32-day weekday period and a Saturday period (a total
of 72 hours) using pneumatic hoses at up to 5 locations along the corridors.
» Peak Period Multimodal Intersection Turning
Movement Counts: Weekday AM, weekday PM, and
weekend midday peak period intersection multimodal
turning movement counts at up to 5 intersections along
the corridors.

Exhibit A
806
Item 10.

WASHINGTON AVE. AND TABLE MOUNTAIN BLVD. COMPLETE STREETS PROJECT City of Oroville

MARK THOMAS

» Big Data: Larger data sets from mobile phones and
connected vehicles can help supplement traditional
traffic counts by providing averages across weeks,
months, or seasons rather than a few days. Streetlight
Data provides connected vehicle data sourced from
cars that support location tracking via GPS to estimate vehicle volumes and origin and destination data.
» Field Observations: During weekday AM, weekday
PM, and weekend midday peak periods along the
corridor, including intersection operations, queuing,
and multimodal behavioral patterns.

Task 6.1.2 EXISTING INTERSECTION

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS
Fehr & Peers will develop an existing conditions SimTraffic microsimulation model for Washington Avenue and Table
Mountain Boulevard from County Center Drive to SR 162.

Fehr & Peers will perform a level of service analysis for the weekday AM, weekday PM, and weekend midday peak
periods using the SimTraffic software. For stop-controlled or signalized intersections, SimTraffic is the preferred analysis tool as it accounts for the effects of vehicular queuing on adjacent intersection operations, traffic signal timing, pedestrian travel, and other influences that can affect delay and queuing. We will provide PDF reports of the results and the SimTraffic files if requested by the city.

This task includes a review of the traffic signal as-built plans and existing infrastructure to determine what potential traffic signal equipment, software, and hardware upgrades may be considered as part of a preferred alternative.

Task 6.1.3 ROUNDABOUT FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS
(OPTIONAL)
Fehr & Peers will assist Mark Thomas in evaluating the
feasibility of roundabouts at up to 3 locations. We will use data collected as part of the above Data Collection effort to perform an operational analysis of the roundabouts to determine the number of approach lanes necessary for
roundabouts. This work will inform geometric feasibility to be performed by Mark Thomas. Fehr & Peers will
provide recommendations for configuration and location
of pedestrian and bicycle facilities including markings, curb ramps, splitter islands, and signage related to roundabouts.

We will utilize SIDRA software for Highway Capacity
Manual (HCM) 6th Edition and SIDRA Standard methods to
perform this analysis. We will perform this analysis for the weekday AM, weekday PM, and weekend midday
peak hour scenarios.

Task 6.1.4 PEDESTRIAN CROSSING

IMPROVEMENTS OPPORTUNITIES
(OPTIONAL)
If requested, Fehr & Peers will review the count data
collected for the crosswalks along the corridor to assess where pedestrian crossing improvements may be
recommended to address crossing pedestrians
and bicyclists.

To perform this evaluation, we will utilize Fehr & Peers’ Crosswalk+ Tool, an Excel-based tool to help guide where crossing improvements, such as high-visibility crosswalks, flashing beacons, leading pedestrian intervals and
other special features, should be employed; and where
crosswalks will not be marked due to safety concerns
resulting from volume, speed, or signal distances. Fehr & Peers’ Crosswalk+ tool contains a toolbox of elements to improve crosswalk visibility and safety at mid-block locations and signalized intersections. The tool is based on research from the National Cooperative Highway Research Program, Federal Highway Administration, and interviews with various cities throughout the country and provides guidance about the type of treatments appropriate on
various streets and under various conditions. The tool
uses simple inputs from a field survey, such as number
of lanes, posted speed, and average daily traffic, to
provide a candidate pedestrian treatment at mid-block
and signalized locations. We will also look at pedestrian volumes to help guide decisions related to pedestrian
crossing upgrades as part of this task. The cost of this effort is related to the amount of new data that needs to be collected and the number of locations and time periods to study. If this task is to be conducted, Fehr & Peers will work with the City to identify the locations and develop a data collection plan to identify key locations where collision history, geometrics (roadway curves), lighting (presence or absence of streetlights) or other factors may warrant a detailed review of pedestrian crossing improvements.

Task 6.1.5 EXISTING CONDITIONS

MEMORANDUM (OPTIONAL)
If requested, Fehr & Peers can prepare a memorandum
to include more in-depth data, findings, and analysis of existing conditions. This could include analysis of collision history. Fehr & Peers will work with the City to identify specific areas of focus.

Task 6.2 GEOTECHNICAL REPORT
Task 6.2.1 PRELIMINARY REVIEW AND

COORDINATION
As a subconsultant to Mark Thomas, Crawford will
meet with the design team to review the preliminary
approach and discuss the project needs, goals and
schedule. Crawford will review City-provided maintenance Exhibit A

MARK THOMAS

and improvement documents for the road segments,
if available. A Crawford representative will determine
exploration locations, determine site access, and will
visit the site prior to field work to mark our exploration location(s) for Underground Service Alert (USA). We will obtain a City encroachment permit for our fieldwork within the public right of way exploration locations, and schedule traffic control as needed.

Task 6.2.2 PAVEMENT CONDITION ASSESSMENT
Crawford will walk the project alignment noting the
condition of the pavement, including general notes about transverse and longitudinal cracking, rutting, and failure areas (alligator cracking). Where an overlay or slurry seal is proposed, Crawford will note (on an aerial map or
provided plan) the location and general size of the failure locations and provide this information to the design team for cost estimating purposes of dig out/repair locations.

Task 6.2.3 SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION
Crawford will perform 3 to 4 borings to depths ranging
from 15- to 25-feet deep (or to refusal on bedrock) at the planned retaining wall locations.

Our engineer/geologist will direct the sampling and log the borings. At a minimum, we will sample at 5-foot intervals.

We will deliver the samples to our laboratory for testing.

The drilling contractor will advance the borings with a rubber-tired, truck- or track- mounted drill rig using 4- to 6-inch diameter hollow stem augers, solid stem augers,
and/or mud-rotary techniques. Standard Penetration
Testing (SPT) and California-Modified sampling will be
performed within the borings to obtain samples and
blow count information. Bulk samples will be collected for R-value testing for pavement section recommendations.

To measure the existing structural pavement sections
(HMA and AB) within the roadway alignment, Crawford
will perform 8 to 10 pavement cores along Washington
Avenue and 14 to 16 pavement cores along Table Mountain Boulevard. An engineer/geologist will direct the coring and sampling. At each core location, Crawford will use a diamond tipped core bit 4 to 6 inches in diameter to core through the existing pavement. The existing pavement
sections (HMA and AB) will be measured, and subgrade
samples will be retrieved for R-value testing.

Cores will be backfilled with sand and topped with dyed black quick setting concrete to match the existing road.

Hot mix asphalt patching is not included in our scope of services since the road will be rehabilitated soon. We will work with the City encroachment permit department on
the traffic control requirements; however, we expect traffic control to consist of ‘Road Work Ahead’ signs, lane shifts, and lane closures with flaggers.

Task 6.2.4 LABORATORY TESTING
Crawford will perform the following laboratory tests (if applicable) on relatively undisturbed samples obtained
from the exploratory borings:
» Chemical Analysis
» Moisture Content and Unit Weight
» Plasticity Index
» R-Value
» Sieve Analysis
If Full Depth Reclamation/Recycling (FDR) is selected as the preferred rehabilitation strategy, we will complete two mix designs of subgrade, AB, and HMA samples to provide percent cement, unit weights, and moisture requirements for the specifications and bid package.

Task 6.2.5 ENGINEERING EVALUATION

AND ANALYSIS
Following the results of our fieldwork and laboratory
testing, Crawford will perform engineering analyses to
determine the following:
» Bearing capacity and settlement, equivalent fluid forces including passing pressures, site seismicity including, probabilistic procedures consistent with current Caltrans Seismic Design Criteria to determine the site acceleration response spectrum (ARS) and liquefaction potential; and pavement section recommendations (based on Traffic
Index values provides by the design team).
» Current traffic index based on the results of the cores, assigned gravel factors for the in-place materials,
and thickness of the existing pavement section.
» New pavement section thicknesses based on
the desired traffic index (provided by others) for
comparison purposes only.
» Various pavement rehabilitation options including mill and overlay, FDR, remove and replacement, and full
depth HMA. These options will consider the design
traffic index and a reduced traffic index for comparisons by the City and the Design Team (typically comparing
10- and 20-year design).

Task 6.2.6 GEOTECHNICAL DESIGN/MATERIALS

COST CONTROL AND BUDGETING METHODOLOGY
We use Deltek for all our accounting functions. Deltek has modules “Project Review” and “I-Access” that allow project managers to enter budgets for Mark Thomas and the
subcontractors and track spending in real-time. We use
these modules to track earned value on our project and
this will be done for each task order.

As shown in the chart to the right, we plan our work using a resource-loaded schedule, monitor the project progress, and track the planned budget vs. actuals, and we report this to the City on a monthly basis. We review and report any variations along with a corrective action plan.

For City construction budgets, we provide engineer’s
estimates for probable construction at all major
deliverables. Costs are derived using a combination of
recently completed bids within the local area, Caltrans unit cost database, City historical information, and RS Means available information. Appropriate adjustments are made to accommodate economies of scale, as necessary escalation should construction not occur immediately after design, and work with the City to derive potential soft costs. Lastly, where the City has multiple funding sources that only cover portions of the project, we routinely organize the estimate such that these each bid item’s estimated cost is associated with the appropriate funding source.

SCHEDULE CHALLENGES
Our proposed project schedule shown on the next page
includes key activities and milestones for the project
design, environmental clearance, right of way acquisitions and RFA for construction. Key to the positioning of the project for competitive ATP Cycle 8 grant funds will be the determination of environmental and right of way impacts and costs. Our schedule includes completion of the NEPA and CEQA clearance and design prior to the submittal of ATP Cycle 8 in June 2026.

Another key issue for the completion of the RFA for
construction is the potential to advance right of way
activities relative to the CEQA and NEPA clearance. If right of way funds can be obligated from sources other than ATP Cycle 8, the ROW acquisition tasks could be advanced by up to 6 months leading to a possible early start of construction.

For discussion on critical engineering design issues and critical environmental issues, and how we will adddress them, please refer to our “Project Approach” on page 26.

We use Deltek VantagePoint software for real-time reporting of expended hours versus tasks completed to ensure the
project is delivered within budget.

MARK THOMAS

QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITY CONTROL
Mark Thomas firmly believes that QA/QC is a company-wide effort. Mark Thomas will implement a QA/QC program in accordance with our Quality Management Manual and the City’s quality standards. This document clearly defines the firm’s quality management system and “ensures implementation of the company’s quality policies at all levels.” All Mark Thomas team members and subconsultants will adhere to this plan. Each of our respective firms supports the idea that it is our responsibility to produce high-quality products that will result in developing a clearly-defined and cost-effective project.

QUALITY MANAGEMENT PLAN
At the beginning stages of our projects, we work with our agency partners to develop and implement a projectspecific Quality Management Plan (QMP) that sets objectives for quality assurance and control activities. This begins with identifying an internal project quality manager, who works with the agency project manager to set
priorities, schedules, and guidelines for quality procedures and deliverable reviews. These are developed into a Project Management Plan (PMP) that details each task, as well
as the appropriate local and Caltrans standards, CADD
standards, state and federal guidelines.

The PMPs/QMPs stipulate the deliverables and schedules
for the various levels of quality control reviews to be conducted throughout the project.
1 Our project managers perform on-going reviews as
the project develops and Quality Control Reviews/
Accuracy Checks are conducted for every completed
work product.
2 Before delivering to the client, fresh eyes are provided by Independent Technical Reviews which are conducted
by those who are knowledgeable but not involved in
the day-to-day project development.
3 Interdisciplinary reviews are conducted on projects
that bring together multiple disciplines to proof their integration.
4 As appropriate, constructibility reviews are conducted involving a construction management team.
5 Finally, the project quality manager audits the reviews to confirm their proper conduct and documentation, and
to confirm that all reviewer corrections and concerns
were addressed before the deliverable can be sent to
the client.

We have a dedicated company Quality Assurance Manager
that periodically audits our projects to show that we are following the established procedures and documentation. At Mark Thomas, the quality of our deliverables is a top priority, along with meeting the schedule and staying within budget.

The QMPs identify specific quality control/quality assurance (QA/QC) activities to be completed during the project.

Implementing these activities results in high-quality
deliverables. This includes:
» Verify that all quality control comments have been
incorporated prior to PS&E production.
» Produce quality control “check set” mark-ups for each submittal stage.
» Review project quality control materials, at a minimum, on quarterly basis, for adherence to this policy and
provide guidance or directions for corrective action and training as necessary.
» Produce quarterly quality assurance audit
memorandum – available to the client upon request.
» Conduct quality control “lessons learned” training
following each submittal with the project design team
members, including subconsultants, as appropriate.

EXCEPTIONS
Mark Thomas has reviewed the sample agreement provided in the RFP and we respectfully request to discuss the changes in redline below.

7. INDEMNIFICATION
With all matters related to Design Professional Services, as defined by California Civil Code 2782.8, CONSULTANT shall indemnify and hold harmless CITY from and against all liability arising out of or in connection with CONSULTANT’s negligent or wrongful acts, errors or omissions in the performance of work hereunder or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this Agreement. In the event that CITY is named as a party defendant in a lawsuit alleging injury as a result of CONSULTANT’s negligent or wrongful performance under this Agreement, CONSULTANT shall defend CITY with counsel approved by CITY, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, and bear responsibility for the reimbursement of attorney’s fees, expert fees and all other costs and expenses of litigation. Should conflict of interest principles preclude a single lawyer from representing both CITY and CONSULTANT, or should CITY otherwise find CONSULTANT’s legal counsel unacceptable, then CONSULTANT shall reimburse the CITY its costs of defense, including without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees, expert fees and all other costs and expenses of litigation.

CONSULTANT shall promptly pay any final, non-appealable judgment rendered against the CITY. Consultant has no obligation to provide an immediate defense or to pay for any of the indemnities defense related cost prior to a final determination of liability or to pay any amount that exceeds Consultant’s final determined percentage of liability based upon the comparative fault of Consultant. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California but the indemnity obligation will exclude such loss or damage which is determined to be caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the CITY.

14. OWNERSHIP OF DOCUMENTS
It is understood and agreed that the CITY shall own all documents and other work product of the CONSULTANT, except the CONSULTANT’s notes and workpapers, copyright and IP which pertain to the work performed under this Agreement. The CITY shall have the sole right to use such materials in its discretion and without further compensation to the CONSULTANT. Consultant shall grant CITY an irrevocable, non-exclusive, nontransferable, royalty-free license to use the Proprietary Intellectual Property developed under this Agreement.

CITY shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Consultant for any use or re-use of said final professional work product for any other purpose than its original intended use. Any use or re-use for another project or project location shall be at CITY’s sole risk. The CONSULTANT shall at its sole expense provide all such documents to the CITY upon request.

CITY OF OROVILLE

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR PITTMAN & COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: BRIAN RING, CITY ADMINISTRATOR

CHRIS TENNS, FIRE CHIEF

RON BELSER, CODE ENFORCMENT DIRECTOR
RE: PROPSOSED UPDATES TO THE WEED ABATEMENT ORDINANCE
DATE: MAY 6, 2025

SUMMARY
As wildfire risks continue to grow, the safety of Oroville’s residents remains a top priority.

Staff is requesting the Council consider updates to the current weed abatement ordinance to strengthen fire prevention efforts and better protect our community. These updates focus on addressing fire hazards more effectively, with a key emphasis on establishing defensible space around homes to reduce the risk of wildfire damage.

DISCUSSION
With the implementation of new Fire Hazard Severity Zones (FHSZs) in Local Responsibility Areas (LRAs), including within the City of Oroville, staff believes it is essential to revise the City’s existing ordinance to reflect these changes. Incorporating updated language that identifies Very High, High, and Moderate fire hazard severity zones will help align the City’s fire prevention efforts with the State’s current risk assessment and clarify expectations for property owners. To further address the evolving nature of wildfire risk and enhance the City’s fire prevention strategies, several additional updates to the ordinance are proposed. These include revised definitions to ensure terminology aligns with modern fire safety practices, making the ordinance easier for residents, landowners, and enforcement personnel to understand and apply.

Recognizing the distinct challenges posed by larger properties, the updated ordinance introduces provisions tailored to these areas, supporting more effective hazard reduction strategies. Additionally, the ordinance establishes clear guidelines for the proper disposal of vegetation, helping to ensure that flammable debris is not left in a way that increases fire risk.

Protecting our community from wildfire is a shared responsibility. These updates are a critical step in making Oroville a safer place to live and work, but lasting progress 832

Item 11.

City of Oroville, CA § 13.08.170 § 13.08.200
Article 2
Yard Waste, Weeds, MSW Recyclable Material and Organic Waste, and Rubble
Purpose
It is the intent of this chapter to require the owners and occupants of real property in the within the City of Oroville to maintain said properties to:

1. Reduce the risk of uncontrolled fires and the harm they may cause to individuals.

2. Minimize the spread of any fire to other properties and buildings.

3. Reduce obstructions to fire suppression efforts if a fire does occur.

4. Increase the opportunity for firefighters to successfully protect lives, residences, and other valuable buildings from wildfires.

5. Protect populated areas, such as metropolitan areas, suburban areas, and urban and rural subdivisions from encroaching wildfires.

6. Reduce the spread of residential and other building fires into the wildland vegetation; and

7. Prevent interference with fire hazard abatement activities.

It is the duty of every owner and occupant of real property within the City of Oroville set forth in section of this chapter to comply with the firebreak requirements specified in section of this chapter and to prevent fire hazards from arising on, or existing upon, his or her property. A failure to comply with the mandatory duty set forth in this section by failing to prevent fire hazards from arising on, or existing upon, one's property is unlawful and punishable as a misdemeanor.
834
Item 11.
§ 13.08.170. Definitions
For the purposes of this chapter, the following words and phrases shall have the meanings respectively ascribed to them by this section:
• "Grass," "weeds" or "plants" means grass, weeds, or plants which when mature will attain such a large growth as to become a fire menace when dry, or which are otherwise noxious or dangerous.
• Fire Hazard Vegetation: Any plant or material that is highly flammable and can contribute to the spread of wildfire, including dry or dead grass, brush, and other combustible vegetation. • "Owner" means the legal owner of real property fronting on any street; and as used in this chapter the singular shall include the plural, and shall include an individual, a firm, an association, a corporation, a partnership and the lessees, trustees, agents, employees, and representatives of any such owner. Proof of the assessment of any real property, the subject of this chapter, to any person or legal entity on the official assessor's rolls shall constitute prima facie evidence that such person or legal entity to whom such property is so assessed is the legal owner thereof.
• Public street" or "streets" means all roads, streets, avenues, boulevards, alleys, parkways and public rights-of-way or any portions thereof of the City. • "Rubble" means any rubble, residue, structure or part or portions of a structure, remaining after the demolition or partial demolition of any building or structure in the City. • Defensible Space: A buffer zone around structures where vegetation is reduced or modified to slow or stop the spread of wildfire and protect property from fire damage. • Fire Hazard Severity Zones (FHSZ): Geographic areas that have been classified based on the risk of wildfire, considering factors such as vegetation, climate, topography, and historical fire behavior. These zones are used to establish fire safety regulations for property owners. • Moderate Fire Hazard Severity Zone: Areas with moderate wildfire risk, where defensible space is still important, but the vegetation management and other requirements may be less stringent compared to higher-risk zones.
835
Item 11.
• High-Risk Fire Zone: Areas identified as vulnerable to wildfires due to proximity to wildland areas, dry conditions, and historical fire data.
• Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone: Areas where the risk of wildfire is the highest. These areas require the most stringent fire safety measures, including a large defensible space and specific management practices.
(Ord. 1165; Ord. 1184; Ord. 1192 § 1; Ord. 1861 § 2, 2021) § 13.08.180. Vegetation Removal and Maintenance
§ 13.08.180.

Removal
Fire Hazard Vegetation Abatement
A. Yard Waste and Weeds Etc. Every owner of real property within the corporate limits of the City shall remove and destroy all grass, weeds or plants as defined in Section.

13.08.170 from such real property and from in front of such real property from the property line thereof to the curb line of the street upon which such real property abuts.

Every owner of real property within the City limits shall remove all fire hazard vegetation, including dry grasses, weeds, plants, and brush, from such real property and from in front of such real property from the property line thereof to the curb line of the street upon which such real property abuts, unless the vegetation is properly maintained by irrigation and or spacing as not to be conducive to fire growth and propagation. It is highly recommended to remove ornamental shrubs from the property that are flammable even when cared for. Ie: juniper bushes, etc B. MSW, Recyclable Material, Organic Waste and Rubble. Every owner of real property within the corporate limits of the city shall keep such real property, and the real property in front of the same from the property line thereof to the curb line of the street upon which such real property abuts, free and clear of all MSW, recyclable material, organic waste, and rubble. Property owners in high and very high severity zones must maintain defensible space around all structures by removing fire hazard vegetation within a minimum of 30 feet of all buildings, fences, and other structures, or as determined by the Fire Chief
836
Item 11.

C. Rubble. Every owner of real property within the corporate limits of the City shall keep such real property free and clear of all rubble.

D. Additional vegetation management shall be conducted within high and very high fire hazard severity zones around structures on the property, including areas designated for ingress and egress, to ensure adequate defensible space and access for emergency vehicles

1. Property owners must also clear brush, dead trees, and overgrown vegetation that could potentially block access for emergency responders or fuel a fire.

2. Vegetation should be cut to a height not exceeding 4 inches or as determined by the Fire Chief in high-risk zones. This includes all shrubs, grasses, and brush within proximity to structures and emergency access points.

3. Remove leaves and needles from roof and rain gutters.

4. Mature tree canopy should be no closer than 10 feet to the edge of the building, roof, and chimney.

5. Clear plants and flammable items from under and around decks

6. Tall trees shall be pruned 6 feet from the ground or 1/3 of overall height.

7. Parcels with a fire hazard caused by excessive vegetation growth, are required to establish and maintain firebreaks. The primary goal of these firebreaks is to slow or stop the spread of fire during regular summer fire season conditions.

Firebreaks can consist of fire-resistant vegetation like irrigated lawns or pastures, ice plant, green ivy, and other plants approved by the Fire chief as being fireresistant. It is essential to maintain vegetation and firebreaks in a condition that impedes the spread of fire.
• Properties 1 to 5 Acres: Owners of properties ranging from 1 acre to 5 acres must establish a fire break around the entire property. This fire break should be a clear area devoid of combustible vegetation to reduce the spread of fire across the property. Required firebreaks may be created by mowing to a maximum height of four (4) inches, discing or removing the annual weeds, grass, rank growth and trimmings, and by removing obstructions. 837
Item 11.
• Properties Greater Than 5 Acres: Owners of properties greater than 5 acres must establish a fire line around the property’s perimeter. These properties will also require an addition fire break dividing the property into sections further reducing the spread of fire across large areas. This can be achieved by mechanical equipment or natural ie: rivers, creeks, riparian, or existing trail/ road. The fire line and break should be maintained regularly to ensure they remain effective. Well maintained properties will not be required to add a fire break if other defensible space requirements are met.

8. Use of Livestock for Fuel Reduction: General guidelines for the use of Livestock for fuel reduction management can vary. It is acceptable to follow this guideline for fuel reduction. The standard equation for all hoofed animals will be one (1) acre of "feed" per hoofed animal or 8 to 12 goats per 5 acres. If the number of hoofed animals or goads exceeds the number of acres in said parcel the owner and occupant may be exempt.

9. For travel ways entering and exiting the property, clear and maintain vegetation down to 4 inches or less, creating a buffer zone of at least 10 on both sides, and trim all overhanging tree branches to a minimum height of 14 feet to allow access for emergency vehicles.

10. It is not permitted to allow an accumulation of combustible material, dead or dying trees, or green waste on an unimproved parcel’s property line when it encroaches on the 100-foot defensible space requirements of a structure or building on the adjacent property.

Community Education
 Educational Campaign: The City will launch an educational campaign to help homeowners understand how to create defensible space, manage fire risk, and comply with the ordinance. This could include workshops, online resources, and community outreach.

Item 11.
(Ord. 1165; Ord. 1184; Ord. 1861 § 2, 2021)
