Disability Access Consultants, LLC (DAC) understands that the City of Placentia is seeking to enter into a professional services agreement with a qualified and experienced firm to provide a comprehensive Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Self -Evaluation and Transition Plan for the City facilities, parks, and parking structures and public rights-of-way. (PROW).

The effort and work for this project will be performed and/or overseen by DAC's Certified Access Specialist (CASp) and proven management team.

As a key component of the development of this plan, DAC will build and update the efforts of the 2009 Plan.

Also, DAC will review the City's programs, services, activities, policies for compliance with the American with Disabilities Act (ADA), State of California Building Codes, Caltrans Standards, federal codes such as Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, and civil rights regulations, federal highway and related local regulations. DAC will collaborate with the City and provide best practices to assist the City in the updates of these compliance requirements.

Disability Access Consultants, LLC (DAC) has extensive experience in the evaluation of program and facility accessibility and provides a full continuum of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and accessibility services for public entities, such as the City of Placentia.

Founded as a California company in 1998, DAC has provided services for the past 26 years to assist public entities to comply and implement accessibility requirements in accordance with the ADA, Title 24 of the California Building Code, Section 504 and related federal, state and local disability -related nondiscrimination laws and regulations.

DAC has conducted over 29,000 building inspections, surveyed thousands of parks and playgrounds, over 25,000 thousand miles of public rights-of-way and performed hundreds of programmatic reviews and self -evaluations to study the accessibility of programs, services, activities, events and related areas.

DAC Proposal to the City of Placentia for ADA Consultant Services

DAC
DAC has a team of 25 staff, including CASp certified inspectors, dedicated to assisting public entities, such as the City of Placentia, with ADA compliance. DAC has a comprehensive understanding of applicable standards, regulations and requirements under Title II of the ADA, California Building Code and related state accessibility standards.

DAC has successfully completed over 400 similar projects throughout the US over the past 26 years and has a clear understanding of the necessary requirements and deliverables that the City is seeking.

DAC has a clear understanding of the requirements of this RFP and has successfully completed projects in similar size and scope to the City.

The use of DACTrak provides for a better quality and finished product for easy and cost-effective management of the ADA plans.

Tim Mahoney, General Manager, has the authority to negotiate on behalf of and to contractually bind DAC. DAC has received and reviewed Addendum No. 1 published on January 8, 2024, as well as questions and answers posted by the City on January 3, 2024, January 12, 2024 and January 16, 2024 and has included the information in preparation of our response.

DAC
clients' current status by preparing a study of all areas related to accessibility in different departments to document ongoing compliance.

DAC has a reputation for being responsive to the client's needs, providing project completion on time within budgets. DAC has a proven track record for comprehensive experience in conducting ADA self -evaluations and transition plans, implementation and related services.

DACTrak - Innovative Tools, Strategies and Best Practices Based on experience and knowledge of the accessibility field and best practices, DAC continues to develop innovative methodologies, easy to use ADA management tools, and proven, successful strategies for evaluating programs, services, activities, events, facilities, parks and public rights-of- way. DACTrak was developed by DAC for the purpose of easy and useful importing and management of the accessibility data collected in the field. DACTrak is interactive online software and is not an enhanced excel spread sheet. The ability to collect, compile, analyze and use report data in a practical format was one of the driving forces to develop the DACTrak intake and management software. Our DAC accessibility management software, DACTrak, provides our clients with a powerful management tool to document compliance, project costs, print custom reports and record progress. DACTrak is not an excel spreadsheet, but actual software that has been developed by our company to assist with the implementation and documentation of the City's ADA plan and provides photographs of as -is site conditions, which has proven to be valuable documentation. Findings and recommendations, in addition to other data are preloaded into the DACTrak software. As DAC owns and licenses the DACTrak software, we can make custom modifications for our clients.

The DACTrak program is accessed through a secure website that is compatible with all current major internet browsers. There is no software program file to download or install on the City's servers or computers in order to access and manage report data on DACTrak. All maintenance and updates to the DACTrak software are performed by DAC's in-house IT Team, therefore there is no burden on the City's IT staff to maintain or administer any software, programs or databases.

The data contained in the database shall be the property of the City when the ADA Transition Plan compilation is complete. DAC proposes that the City use DACTrak to facilitate ongoing monitoring and updating of the final transition plan. If the City chooses not to use the DACTrak online management software, DAC can provide reports to the City in a compatible format such as Excel and PDF.

Client References
DAC has performed hundreds of ADA self-evaluation and transition plans for cities, counties, towns, and park districts nationwide and has worked with approximately 250 public entities in the state of California.

Critical Items for Success
The most critical step in performing a successful assessment project is planning. Verifying facility information, organizing access and confirming contact information prior to the onsite surveys commencing is vital to the success of the project.

Another issue that is critical is the consistency and accuracy of the data gathered during the survey phase. In order to ensure this, DAC has developed DACTrak, which supports accurate and complete data collection. Using the DACTrak software in the field, our surveyors collect data and measurements in a specific order to ensure that elements are not missed. The data and photographs that are collected in the field are processed by our servers against all applicable accessibility codes, which provides our clients with consistent and accurate reports. Since the data collected in the field is automatically uploaded to our processing servers, reports are available to our clients within a short turnaround time, following our multi -step editing and quality control process.

5. a proposed solution to eliminate the
barrier; and

6. individual cost estimates for each
solution.
c. DAC will provide the City with access to
DACTrak, allowing the City's users to generate
details reports in multiple formats, including PDF and Excel, as well as map style formats of KML and Shapefile for available exterior areas where GIS coordinates can be collected.

The DACTrak online accessibility management software will provide the City with comprehensive reports for the interior and exterior of each facility. DACTrak also includes tools that will allow the City to plan a schedule of barrier removal, adjust priorities and update the implementation of the transition plan. Many report options are available in DACTrak that can show detailed information for every noncompliant finding in each recreational facility, through high level summary reports that can offer a concise synopsis of noncompliant findings by category across all facilities City-wide. Estimated costs are available in all reports, however a DACTrak user can choose to generate a report without estimated costs if needed.
d. DAC will survey all City -owned parks and park facilities included in Appendix C included with the RFP and confirmed at the project kick off meeting.

4. City Programs and Services
As part of Tasks 2.0 and 3.0, DAC will conduct an accessibility review of City programs, services, activities and policies to comply with a core requirement of an ADA Self -Evaluation and Transition Plan.
a. In consultation with the City, DAC will identify which City programs and services are subject to the requirements of the ADA, including but not limited to, classes, workshops, meetings, and events. DAC will perform reviews of program policies, procedures, including but not limited to eligibility requirements, location(s) of services, methods of providing information and procedure for processing requests for accommodations. The information prepared from the programmatic assessments will be included in the self-evaluation and transition plan Executive Summary.
b. DAC will conduct programmatic barrier assessment surveys of City programs and services, as appropriate and available. The reviews will identify programmatic barriers in City programs and services that could limit accessibility or be considered potentially discriminatory.
c. Based on the programmatic barrier assessment surveys, DAC will provide the City with suggestions and recommendations as needed to ensure or enhance compliance in the City's MIN I It

DAC
programs and services. The findings and recommendations will be included in the ADA Self-evaluation and Transition Plan report.
d. The ADA self-evaluation and transition plan report will identify issues that may limit physical or other access to individuals with disabilities to City Programs and Services. The report will include a feasible solution and cost estimate for eliminating each barrier if applicable.

Most programmatic changes to enhance compliance would have little to no cost associated. e. Although the ADA self-evaluation and transition plan project will focus on Title II, the report will also include a cursory review of the City's employment and recruitment practices related to accessibility and reasonable accommodations.

5. City Webpages
a. While the City did not expressly request this deliverable, DAC would recommend a compliance review of the City's website and web pages.
b. In consultation with the City, DAC will identify which City communications and webpages, including but not limited to, sign-up forms, registration forms and public facing website pages, are subject to the requirements of the ADA. DAC will provide the City with a programmatic review that will identify all communications items that are not compliant or are potentially discriminatory. The City's website will be reviewed for compliance with the standard required for Title II entities, Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA.
c. DAC will conduct barrier assessment surveys to review all City public communications and webpages, as appropriate. The surveys will identify accessibility barriers in City communications and webpages as well as potential language or procedures that could be considered discriminatory.
d. DAC will provide the City with a report that includes the findings are recommendations from the reviews of the City's communications and website review. The report will include a synopsis of the comprehensive website review which will be issued separately as a related and referenced report. The report will identify programmatic issues found in public communications and the City's public facing website that limit accessibility.

Detailed Approach for a Successful Project
In addition to the previous scope of work summary, tasks will also include, but are not limited to the following:

Orientation/Project Meeting and Clarification of Project Scope and Schedule DAC will conduct an initial project kickoff meeting with selected City staff to clarify roles and lines of communication, refine project goals, review the overall project schedule, schedule surveys of City facilities, recreational areas and public rights-of-way and identify key City personnel related to the project scope. To ensure an efficient commencement of the project in order to meet the deadline requirements, the kickoff meeting may be held via teleconference. More specific activities will include:
❑ Information that is needed will be clarified at the initial orientation meeting. The initial meeting will also clarify proposed activities and provide a collaborative framework to discuss project strategies. The project methodology is generally designed to develop a comprehensive plan without placing additional activities and impact upon City staff. ❑ Barbara Thorpe will be designated as the project manager and will also serve as policy and program analyst. She will be the DAC contact for the project and serve as the point of contact for the City. The designated team members that will coordinate the inspection team during the facility reviews will be Michael Boga and Candice Pursch. The management approach will include coordination and assistance from DAC office staff under the direction of Jennie Grover, Director of Administrative Services, Tim Mahoney, General Manager and Candice Pursch, Director of Accessibility Services.

DAC Proposal to the City of Placentia for ADA Consultant Services 12

DAC
❑ Specific methodologies and data collection will be clarified. Timelines and benchmarks will be developed. Operational and procedural requirements will be reviewed, such as coordination of schedules, name tags, project dates and other relevant information. DAC staff members wear DAC uniform shirts and have DAC identification badges.
❑ The initial orientation meeting will include an assessment of any previous compliance activities and areas of current or potential litigation. The review of compliance activities and high priority areas will assist with the development of an overall project plan. The review and documentation of prior initiatives will also build a more defensible plan if the City is challenged by litigation. ❑ Project objectives will be clarified and elements that may be unique or of importance for the City will be discussed.
❑ Hours of operation, schedules and City activities by location will be discussed.

Survey of Facilities, Parks and PROW, Software for Transition Plans ❑ DAC will conduct the surveys of the interior and exterior areas of each City building, facility recreational area and public right-of-way identified in the RFP and confirmed at the kickoff meeting.
❑ DAC will prepare reports identifying each physical element within the public areas of each of the City buildings, facilities, recreational areas and public right-of-way that is out of compliance with the ADA and related codes and regulations or otherwise hinders or prevents access to persons with disabilities.
❑ As required by the ADA, the 2010 ADA Standards will be compared with state codes and the standard that provides the greater level of accessibility utilized. As DAC collects actual measurements of as -is field conditions and records all information, data can be reprocessed if codes change without conducting a re -inspection, thus resulting in a significant savings when codes change, and the plan needs to be updated.
❑ DAC will provide the City with DACTrak online accessibility management software for City staff to generate reports in multiple styles and file formats. DACTrak reports will include, but may not be limited to the following:
❑ DAC collects as -built dimensions as they relate to ADA and other relevant code and guideline access;
o Initial prioritizing of non-compliant findings relative to the level of impact to access; o Reference to code or codes defining the barrier to access; o Proposed solution(s) to eliminate the barrier;
o Individual detailed cost estimate for each solution;
o At least one digital photograph of each barrier to access; o Detailed location description, including GIS coordinates for available outdoor areas, to further identify the barrier when available.
❑ Assessments and reports will include a high degree of detail with photographs, code references, cost estimates and GIS information when applicable. The DACTrak software provides the user with the capability to generate reports in multiple formats such as progress reports, additional prioritizations, preset reporting features and other custom reports. The inclusion of photographs showing the as -is condition has proven to be valuable assistance to clients in the formulation of the decisions regarding barrier removal priorities. The DACTrak software provides an easy to use accessibility management platform that exceeds the ability to manage the plan by hard copies and binders. The assessment report of each facility will include cost estimates to correct deficiencies in accordance with the ADA or other applicable federal or state accessibility codes. ❑ Barriers are identified by building, floor or location and given a unique identifier record number to assist with navigation in the accessibility software and location of the finding and recommendation by area and site. Estimated applicable costs will be given by item and element in accordance with industry standards. Costs can be easily adjusted to adhere to any cost estimates the City may utilize.

❑ Physical access problems that require structural solutions will be documented in the compliance assessment reports that will be used to develop the transition plan. The proposed method for barrier removal will be provided. The transition plan will identify physical barriers that may limit accessibility of the City programs, services or activities for individuals with disabilities. The schedule for removal of barriers and appropriate timelines will be developed in consultation with the City. ❑ Identified barriers and obstacles will be prioritized as discussed in the Scope of Work. Use of the DACTrak software will provide the City with an additional tool to reprioritize items depending upon the unique and ongoing needs of the City and public comments during the public input process. Public and nonpublic areas will be identified, if requested. Employee only areas, for example, are usually given a lower priority for barrier removal. ❑ Detailed findings, inspection intake records and digital photos are recorded during the intake process. Findings are incorporated into the transition/barrier removal plans. Information collected during the survey process is preloaded by DAC into our DACTrak accessibility management software.

The DAC surveys of the public rights-of-way may include, but would not be limited to:

Sidewalks
• Width
• Cross Slope
• Running slope
• Changes in elevation greater than 1/4 inch and changes in elevation that are not beveled up to 1/2 inch
• Any obstructions in the sidewalk that obstruct or narrow the path of travel such as protruding objects and items that narrow the required width
• Street furniture
• Collection of GIS location information and photographs Signalized Intersections
• Crosswalks
• Pedestrian ramps -curb ramps; width, slope, side flares, grooved borders, truncated domes, alignment with the crosswalk
• Accessible pedestrian signals
• Traffic stop bars
DAC uses a comprehensive approach to inspecting public rights- of-way. In order to conduct an assessment of all of the requirements in the PROW, DAC accessibility specialists walk each mile of sidewalk to record manual measurements and
photographs of the field conditions and enter the information into our DACTrak tablet in the field. DAC has found that the use of automated equipment for running slopes on sidewalks, such as ultra -light profilers, do not provide an actual measurement, but only provide a chart showing ranges. In some cases, if a change in level is greater than 1/2 inch, no actual quantifiable information is reported of how much greater the severity. In order to get the actual measurements for the sidewalks, the use of a"profiler" does not provide the measurements needed for items such as vertical clearance and street furniture.

The on-site facility team leader conducts a quality assurance review and contacts the field inspector regarding any items in the report that may need further investigation. The on-site facility team leader completes any necessary edits, and the final quality control editor is notified that the report is ready for the final edit.

Cost estimates are provided by DACTrak and then can be refined by DAC in collaboration with the City. If the City has utilized cost estimates for standard nonaccessible items or elements, then the City's costs can be entered into the DACTrak program.

DAC Proposal to the City of Placentia for ADA Consultant Services 14

DAC
As is the case with most public entities, due to the limited City staff availability it is the intent of DAC to conduct the surveys with as little burden on the City staff as possible.

DAC team members will conduct on-site inspections on our DACTrak tablets and export the on-site field conditions for processing by our servers the same day of the inspection while located in the City. Thus, the draft report is ready the same day or at the end of the inspection of the site. Cost estimates are then refined by Michael Boga, Senior Director of Accessibility Services, in collaboration with the City. If the City has utilized cost estimates for standard nonaccessible items or elements, then the City's costs can be entered into the DACTrak program.

Task 4.0: GIS Integration
As part of the inspection process and required by the ADA, the 2010 ADA Standards will be compared with state codes and the standard that provides the greater level of accessibility utilized.

As DAC collects actual measurements of as -is field conditions and records all information, data can be reprocessed if codes change without conducting a re -inspection, thus resulting in a significant savings when codes change, and the plan needs to be updated.

DAC will provide the City with DACTrak online accessibility management software for City staff to generate reports in multiple styles and file formats. DACTrak reports will include but may not be limited to as -built dimensions as they relate to the ADA and other relevant code and guideline access, initial prioritizing of noncompliant findings relative to the level of impact to access, reference to accessibility codes, proposed solution(s) to eliminate the barrier, cost estimate for each solution, at least one digital photograph of each barrier to access, and a detailed location description, including GIS coordinates and mapping.

The DACTrak software provides the user with the capability to generate reports in multiple formats such as progress reports, additional prioritizations, preset reporting features and other custom reports. The inclusion of photographs showing the as -is condition has proven to be valuable assistance to clients in the formulation of the decisions regarding barrier removal priorities. The DACTrak software provides an easy-to-use accessibility management platform that exceeds the ability to manage the plan by hard copies and binders. The assessment report of each facility will include cost estimates to correct deficiencies in accordance with the ADA or other applicable federal or state accessibility codes.

Barriers are identified by building, floor or location and given a unique identifier record number to assist with navigation in the accessibility software and location of the finding and recommendation by area and site. Estimated applicable costs will be given by item and element in accordance with industry standards. Costs can be easily adjusted to adhere to any cost estimates the City may utilize.

The proposed method for barrier removal will be provided. The transition plan will identify physical barriers that may limit accessibility of the City programs, services or activities for individuals with disabilities. The schedule for removal of barriers and appropriate timelines will be developed in collaboration with the City. Identified barriers and obstacles will be initially prioritized.

Use of the DACTrak software will provide the City with an additional tool to update prioritizations, budget, implement and monitor barrier removal. DAC uses a comprehensive approach to inspecting public rights-of-way and records actual as -is measurements, not just an indicator of compliant or not compliant. DAC has found that the use of automated equipment for compliance measurements DAC Proposal to the City of Placentia for ADA Consultant Services 15

of sidewalks does not provide actual comprehensive measurement of areas required to be assessed, such as protruding objects.

DAC team members will conduct onsite inspections on our DACTrak tablets and export the on-site field conditions for processing by our servers the same day of the inspection. An Executive Summary of the entire project will also be provided to the City. DAC will provide the City with access to DACTrak, allowing the City's users to generate details reports in multiple formats, including PDF and Excel, as well as map style formats of KML and Shapefile for available exterior areas where GIS coordinates can be collected.

Buildings, parks and open space assessments will include an assessment of all interior and exterior elements. The reports prepared from the assessments will include details of all elements surveyed.

DAC will conduct barrier assessment surveys with field reviews of all City -owned public buildings that provide programs, services or activities to the public, as appropriate. The surveys will identify physical barriers at each facility that could limit accessibility. The information collected in the field will be compared to the Federal ADA codes as well as applicable state codes and the standard that provides the greater level of accessibility utilized.

DACTrak also includes tools that will allow the City to plan a schedule of barrier removal, adjust priorities and update the implementation of the transition plan.

Many report options are available in DACTrak that can show detailed information for every noncompliant finding in each building, through high level summary reports that can offer a concise synopsis of noncompliant findings by category across all facilities City-wide. Estimated costs are available in all reports, however a DACTrak user can choose to generate a report without estimated costs if needed.

Report information for public rights-of-way, buildings and parks will include: as -is condition measurements and verifications as they relate to ADA access, a detailed barrier description and initial priority order related to relative impact to access, at least one digital photograph for documentation of each barrier, detailed location description identifying the location of the barrier, maps will also be provided for findings where GIS coordinates can be collected for available outdoor findings, a proposed solution to eliminate the barrier; and individual cost estimates for each solution. An Executive Summary of the entire project will also be provided to the City that will include the method and process for conducting the self-evaluation and developing the transition plan, as well as an overview of the barriers found in the City's parks and open spaces. All exterior paths of travel, curb ramps, and sidewalks providing access and are adjacent to the facilities will be inspected.

Facility Diagrams and Inventory
DAC will provide the integration of the collected GIS data of the City where applicable, and will include the phases and tasks identified in the RFP. Data will include reference maps, curb ramp condition data and GIS location information. As DAC developed and maintains DACTrak, custom fields can be added. A city-wide reference map will be included with ramp conditions and GIS coordinates. Notes can be added in the DACTrak software.

Task 5.0: Public Involvement and Outreach
The City is required to provide opportunities for public input into the ADA plan. DAC will recommend and lead a public participation and outreach process that will incorporate the requirements of the ADA. The outreach portion of the self-evaluation and transition plan project will include multiple methods to provide opportunities for public input from members of the community as well as area organizations that provide services to persons with disabilities. The surveys that will be prepared for use in acquiring public input will encourage respondents to describe current accessibility needs and challenges to assist the City in developing accessible programs and facilities. DAC will work with the City to determine the most effective methods to gather input from individuals and groups who would like to participate in the development of the plan. DAC will compile all comments and feedback from public outreach efforts to be incorporated in the final transition plan.

Task 6.0: Project Database
Based on experience and knowledge of the accessibility field and best practices, DAC continues to develop innovative methodologies, easy to use ADA management tools, and proven, successful strategies for evaluating programs, services, activities, events, facilities, parks and public rights-of- way. DACTrak was developed by DAC for the purpose of easy and useful importing and management of the accessibility data collected in the field.

DACTrak is interactive online software and is not an enhanced excel spread sheet. The ability to collect, compile, analyze and use report data in a practical format was one of the driving forces to develop the DACTrak intake and management software. Our DAC accessibility management software, DACTrak, provides our clients with a powerful management tool to document compliance, project costs, print custom reports and record progress. Findings and recommendations, in addition to other data are preloaded into the DACTrak software.

DAC owns and licenses the DACTrak online software which is accessed through a secure website compatible with all current major Windows based Internet browsers. There is no software program file to download or install on the City's servers or computers in order to access and manage report data on DACTrak. All maintenance and updates to the DACTrak software are performed by DAC's in-house IT Team, therefore there is no burden on the City's IT staff to maintain or administer any software, programs or databases.

The data contained in the database shall be the property of the City. DAC proposes that the City use DACTrak to facilitate ongoing monitoring and updating of the final transition plan. If the City chooses not to use the DACTrak online management software, DAC can provide reports to the City in a compatible format such as Excel and PDF.

Task 7.0 Preliminary Cost Estimates
DAC via the DACTrak software can provide preliminary cost estimates for each barrier identified in the inspection process. DAC will also collaborate with City staff to determine both local and long- term costing and costing contingencies.

Task 8.0 Final ADA Self -Evaluation and Transition Plan DAC will assist the City to develop a comprehensive ADA Self-evaluation and Transition plan and will include at a minimum a summary of findings of the self-evaluation of facilities, policies, programs, and practices, the recommendations for remedial measures to correct deficiencies and a methodology for prioritizing barrier remediation, cost estimates for recommended remediation measures, assistance with an implementation schedule that includes milestones or measures of achievement for monitoring implementation, recommendations for procedures and forms for monitoring implementation, recommendations for procedures for periodically reviewing and updating the ADA transition plan, recommendations for procedures and forms for performing evaluations of additional barriers, recommendations for procedures and forms for filing requests for accommodation, a list of references and contact information for ADA and accessibility related resources; and identification of the City official(s) with overall responsibility for implementation of DAC Proposal to the City of Placentia for ADA Consultant Services 17

DAC
the plan. DAC will present the draft ADA transition plan and subsequently, the final proposed ADA transition plan findings to City Staff by issuing logins to the DACTrak accessibility management software and conducting and interactive training session via teleconference. DAC can also present the final document to the City Council.

DAC will provide the City with DACTrak online accessibility management software which will allow City staff to review and print standard and custom reports on demand, as well as implement and update the transition plan and schedule of barrier removal overtime. There are no per user seat licenses to access DACTrak, DAC can establish password protected logins to as many City staff as needed. In addition to providing the City with access to DACTrak to view and download reports, DAC can deliver the final self-evaluation and transition plan to the City in multiple formats such as in PDF, Microsoft Excel, KML and ESRI Shapefile for available exterior reports. The Executive Summary will be provided to the City in both Word and PDF formats and can also be printed if requested. If the City chooses not to use DACTrak, all data files and project maps and drawings associated with the self-evaluation report and transition plan will be provided to the City in a mutually agreed format.

All data collected will be property of the City.

DAC will collaborate with the City to assist in the development of a 10 -year CIP budget for accessibility.
