PLACENTIA CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: July 21, 2026
Submitted by: Andrew Gonzales
From: Development Services
Subject:
AWARD OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENTS FOR ON-CALL PLANNING SERVICES: CURRENT PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT REVIEW SUPPORT Financial Impact:
Budget: Services are funded through a combination of the Development Services Department operating budget and developer -funded cost recovery accounts, as applicable.
Expense: $100,000 Annual Not -to -Exceed Amount Per Consultant Five -Year Contract Total: $100,000 Per Consultant ($300,000 Combined) Summary:
The Development Services Department released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for On -Call Planning Services: Current Planning & Development Review Support on April 23, 2026, with proposals due on May 8, 2026. Eleven (11) qualified consulting firms submitted proposals by the deadline. Following a comprehensive evaluation by a selection committee consisting of the Development Services Director, Planning Manager, and Associate Planner, staff recommends awarding Professional Services Agreements to CSG Consultants, Inc., Interwest Consulting Group, Inc., and Michael Baker International. The three firms received the highest overall evaluation scores and will provide specialized planning services on an as -needed basis to supplement City staff.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with CSG Consultants, Inc. to provide on- call planning services for a not -to -exceed amount of $100,000 annually for a five-year term, with two optional one-year extensions; and
2. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Interwest Consulting Group, Inc. to provide on-call planning services for a not -to -exceed amount of $100,000 annually for a five-year term, with two optional one-year extensions; and
3. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Michael Baker International to provide on-call planning services for a not -to -exceed amount of $100,000 annually for a five-year term, with two optional one-year extensions; and
4. Authorize the City Administrator, or designee, to execute all necessary documents in a form approved by the City Attorney.
Strategic Plan Statement:
1 Awarding these Professional Services Agreements advances the City Council's Strategic Goals of Organizational Excellence and Economic Development by ensuring the Development Services Department maintains the staffing flexibility and technical expertise necessary to process development applications efficiently, provide responsive customer service, and support continued investment and economic activity throughout the City.
Discussion:
The Development Services Department is responsible for administering current planning services, including the review and processing of discretionary and ministerial development applications, zoning and development review, plan check coordination, public hearing support, California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) compliance, and other related planning functions. While the Department is staffed to accommodate routine workloads, periodic fluctuations in development activity, specialized technical assignments, employee absences, and vacancies require supplemental professional planning assistance to maintain timely customer service and project processing.
To establish a qualified pool of consultants capable of providing these services on an as - needed basis, the City released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for On -Call Planning Services:
Current Planning & Development Review Support on April 23, 2026. The RFP sought qualified consulting firms capable of providing current planning, development review, project management, CEQA review, public hearing support, plan check services, and related planning assistance. Eleven (11) consulting firms submitted proposals by the May 8, 2026, deadline.
A selection committee consisting of the Development Services Director, Planning Manager, and Associate Planner independently evaluated each proposal using the criteria established in the RFP. Following completion of the evaluation process, the three highest -ranked firms were:
• CSG Consultants, Inc. — 91 Points
• Interwest Consulting Group, Inc. — 90 Points
• Michael Baker International — 89 Points
Each of the recommended firms demonstrated extensive municipal planning experience, highly qualified personnel, competitive fee schedules, and the technical expertise necessary to provide current planning and development review services. Their proposals reflected a strong understanding of the City's operational needs and demonstrated the ability to integrate seamlessly with City staff while providing responsive, high-quality planning services.
Unlike building inspection or plan check services, planning assignments vary significantly in complexity, technical specialization, and workload demands. Maintaining multiple on-call consultants provides the City with greater operational flexibility by allowing assignments to be distributed based on each firm's expertise, staff availability, responsiveness, project complexity, and potential conflicts of interest. This approach minimizes delays in application processing while ensuring the City has immediate access to specialized planning resources whenever needed.
The recommended Professional Services Agreements do not guarantee any minimum amount of work. Instead, services will be assigned solely at the City's discretion on an as -needed basis, with compensation based only on work actually performed. Staff anticipates utilizing these agreements to address temporary workload increases, specialized planning assignments, employee vacancies, vacation coverage, and developer -funded projects requiring supplemental staffing resources.
2 Based on the qualifications, experience, responsiveness, and overall value demonstrated through the competitive selection process, staff recommends awarding Professional Services Agreements to CSG Consultants, Inc., Interwest Consulting Group, Inc., and Michael Baker International.
Financial Summary:
The services authorized by these PSAs are funded through a combination of the Development Services Department operating budget and developer -funded cost recovery accounts, as applicable. At this time, Development Services does have a small amount of funds budgeted for Planning -related contract services, but as the need arises, additional funds may be allocated by City Council using developer -funded cost recovery accounts.

PLANNING SERVICES
CSG views every assignment and project as an opportunity to build long-lasting, meaningful working relationships with our clients. We maintain clear lines of communication with every client, stakeholder, agency, decisionmaker, and project team member to ensure assignments and projects achieve and exceed expectations.
We are solutions -oriented, focused on teamwork, and maintain a high level of professionalism in everything we do. Our mission is to consistently meet or exceed our clients' expectations in a responsible and efficient manner.
At CSG, we act as project managers in most of our efforts, but we are first and foremost planners. Our goal is to always perform as a "partner planner" for our clients, providing additional support and services to existing agency staff members. CSG's project managers bring decades of project management experience, implementing best practices, while delivering work products on time and within budget.
A comprehensive approach to project management includes attention to land -use planning, economic feasibility, urban design, and the environment. Our project management philosophy is built on anticipating and preparing for all issues that may arise throughout the project process. By continually considering and developing the appropriate processes and plans to address political, environmental, social, and design challenges/opportunities, we can better serve the City while delivering the highest quality product. Our management team of senior professionals will work in close partnership with City staff to ensure continuous coordination of our proposed services. They will assist the City in determining planning and environmental review requirements with support from additional CSG planners and technical staff, allowing our team to provide a wide range of services cost-effectively.
CURRENT AND ADVANCED PLANNING
At CSG, we believe that changing environmental conditions, increased housing need, diminishing raw land inventory, complex mobility issues, urban infill opportunities, and economic feasibility are all becoming pivotal factors driving projects and the future of development. Our team fuses thoughtful creativity with function, practicality with aesthetics, and connecting places with people.
CSG's approach to current and long-range planning is to "dig in" and become familiar with the City's General Plan, Zoning Code, other development process resources, ongoing projects, and development trends so that we may best assist the City. Our staff planners perform planning activities, such as (but not limited to):
• Analyzing a project's compliance with the City's plans, policies, and regulations. Our staff is familiar with conducting site plan reviews, plan checks, and design reviews; historic reviews, evaluating Tentative Maps, development permits, conditional use permits, and other permits; and conducting General Plan and zoning amendments.
• Reviewing and processing both ministerial and discretionary applications. • Researching, compiling, and analyzing social, economic, environmental, and associated data. • Preparing the necessary long-range planning documents and amendments. • Meeting with developers, their consultants, and other project proponents, such as property owners and other interested groups. We recognize that these are important groups and individuals to any project. • Providing public counter services, including but not limited to answering general questions and processing Zoning Clearances, Accessory Dwelling Unit Zone Clearances, Temporary Use Permits, Home Occupation Permits, and/or Short -Term Rentals permits.
Members of our staff are actively working in a variety of methods both, hybrid and full-time, in agency offices, holding regular office hours, and answering public inquiries by email, mail, or telephone, whichever schedule the CSG Consultants — On -Call Planning Services: Current Planning & Development Review Support 2 20 CSG CONSULTANTS
client wishes. Our staff are available to attend community meetings and present at public hearings; prepare staff reports, resolutions, and ordinances; and prepare in-person and/or electronic presentations.
CSG staff also have knowledge and experience in providing affordable housing support, preparing and administering grants, preparing parking studies, performing fiscal and economic analyses, and providing GIS assistance.
Current Planning
CSG's Planning team provides contract staff support, entitlement services, and project management for a variety of types of projects. We excel at interfacing with public agencies and elected officials, tackling a wide range of current planning issues, and serving as case planners, applicant liaisons, or even assisting the public at the counter. Our staff planners perform daily planning activities, including (but not limited to):
• Zoning review and compliance
• Project entitlement services
• Subdivision Map Act compliance
• Site plan review and design review
• Plan check
• Construction inspection services based on approved plans and conditions of approval • Other services as needed
Our planning staff also serves as an extension of City staff, preparing staff reports, ordinances, resolutions, and making presentations to Zoning Hearing Administrators, Design Review Boards, Planning Commissions, City Councils, or Boards of Supervisors.
Advanced Planning
CSG's planners are well -versed in the creation and management of long-range policy documents and assist communities with community engagement, visioning, goal setting, and implementation, as well as project coordination for applicants and their consultant teams. Our team has prepared General Plans, Specific Plans as well as Community and Area Plans, Climate Action and Adaptation Plans, Design Guidelines, Zoning Code updates, and Economic Development Plans.
WELO Review Services
Our firm offers WELO compliance reviews, including detailed reviews of landscape plans, water budgets, grading plans, and soil management reports as part of a Landscape Documentation Package Review and compliance support in which staff provides feedback, checklists, and recommendations to bring non-compliant plans into compliance with state and local codes.
• Provide on-call services to review landscape plans for compliance with WELO. • Review required Water Efficient Landscape Worksheet Calculations for the project:
• Maximum Applied Water Allowance and Estimated Total Water Use. • Review the planting and irrigation plans for appropriate plant selection, plant water use zones, irrigation methods, and irrigation efficiency.
• Review plans for landscape industry standards for irrigation and planting, water efficient irrigation equipment and design, and appropriateness and adaptability of selected plants to the local climate. • Verify all required plan documentation submittals are complete including a Statement of Compliance and Certificate of Completion.

ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING SERVICES
CSG planners are environmental stewards for our natural and built environments. CSG's approach to any environmental documentation is to understand and analyze each project based on the environmental issues that are pertinent to a project. CSG's approach to environmental documentation emphasizes technically solid, impartial analysis, and active management to keep projects on schedule and within budget. We pride ourselves on our ability to turn products around quickly and effectively without sacrificing quality and accuracy.
CSG recognizes that future City projects, depending on their type, size, and issues of concern, may require several different types of CEQA documentation. A work program will be initiated following the completion and confirmation of the Project Description. As directed by the City, CSG can then proceed with the preparation of an Initial Study pursuant to Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines. The Initial Study will provide a screening and threshold review for each topical area to confirm and proceed with the appropriate CEQA clearance review.
Additionally, and more specifically, we embrace the following steps in the review process:
• Establish a communications protocol and technical leads, including subconsultants and other key team members, to ensure project critical information is efficiently and accurately conveyed across the team. • Ensure roles/responsibilities are clear for efficient management of assignments and quality control of services and deliverables.
• Determine key project description details with the City early to facilitate accurate and consistent reviews and analysis.
• Agree on an initial project schedule and budget and a protocol for updating status during project phases. • Verify that the technical approach/scope of services, as conveyed in the proposal, meets the City's expectations following completion of the Project Description. • Collaborate upfront with the City on standard templates for project deliverables, including peer review technical memoranda and CEQA document components.
Communications and Techniques
Our management style includes consistent, regular interaction and communications among staff, the CSG team, and other interested/responsible governmental agencies and parties, as appropriate, allowing for frequent exchange of information without loss of time or resources. If we encounter a constraint or challenge, we will immediately notify the City and provide short- and/or long-term solutions to any difficulties. We pride ourselves on our ability to turn products around quickly and effectively without sacrificing quality and accuracy.
Developing Project Descriptions and Context
We understand the importance of confirming the Project Description as early in the process as possible to ensure consistency between technical documents and avoid the need to redo analyses. CSG can assist City staff in determining the information required to proceed with the environmental review. We also have proven strategies to move forward with environmental review when there are unknowns, or a project design requires flexibility. For example, when there are different scenarios a project might implement, we can determine the most conservative scenario, so that each scheme is covered by the environmental review.
Conducting Preliminary Environmental Compliance Review
As part of scoping, we complete a comprehensive review of a project to determine whether it is exempt from environmental review or a candidate for streamlined review. For example, we can determine if there is an opportunity to streamline the environmental review of projects utilizing CEQA Guidelines Section 15183, which allows for a streamlined review if a project is consistent with the development density established by existing zoning, community, or general plan polices for which an EIR was certified, or Section 15168, which states that later activities may be found within the scope of a certified Program EIR, and no further environmental documents would be required. CSG is also familiar with all 33 Categorical Exemptions and is available to meet with City staff to discuss specific projects and to confirm whether any exemptions would apply. We can prepare the required documentation to demonstrate why such activities would be exempt from CEQA in the form of a memoranda that explains why no possible exceptions exist that could preclude the use of a Categorical Exemption for a project.
CSG Consultants — On -Call Planning Services: Current Planning & Development Review Support 4 22 CSG CONSULTANTS
Preparing Initial Studies
If it is determined that a project requires additional environmental review, CSG could then proceed with the preparation of an Initial Study pursuant to Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines. The Initial Study provides a screening and threshold review for each topical area to confirm the appropriate CEQA clearance. An Initial Study is the common supporting review documentation for a (mitigated) negative declaration determination. In certain circumstances, we know that a project will result in significant impacts, requiring the preparation of an EIR. In these cases, to save time and reduce costs, we may recommend the preparation of an EIR without an Initial Study. However, even in the case where an EIR will be required, it may be beneficial to prepare an Initial Study to help focus the EIR on the potentially significant impacts. CSG can assist the City in making this determination on a project -by -project basis.
Preparing EIRs
When there is substantial evidence that a proposed project or action may result in potentially significant impacts on the environment, CSG possesses the technical capabilities and expertise to assist our agency clients in preparing an EIR, including, but not limited to:
• Defining the project description,
• Identifying stakeholders and affected agencies,
• Maintaining the administrative record,
• Preparing and distributing the notice of preparation for a 30 -day review, • Conducting a scoping meeting,
• Preparing supporting technical reports, exhibits, and the Administrative Draft EIR for internal review, • Preparing project alternatives, in coordination with City staff, • Preparing and circulating the Public Review Draft EIR for a 45 -day review period, • Drafting responses to comments,
• Preparing the Final EIR and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, • Preparing Findings of Facts, and, as necessary, preparing a Statement of Overriding Considerations to support a lead agency's final decision on a project,
• Attending public hearings, and
• Preparing and filing required notices.
Public Input Process and Dissemination of Information
Given our unique background providing comprehensive municipal services, we have ample experience interfacing with the public and have a deep understanding of the public input process and challenges that can arise. CSG can collaborate with the City in preparing community outreach plans that include ongoing public engagement opportunities, and we can attend public hearings and meetings to address questions on the City's behalf and/or present our conclusions to the decision-making body. Additionally, CSG has a thorough understanding of the tribal consultation process and can be available to attend tribal consultations with tribal representatives at the request of the City.
Ensuring Compliance with Processing and Legal Requirements The CSG team has prepared CEQA documentation for controversial projects, and we have an exemplary record of legal defensibility for the documentation we prepare. We understand that housing projects can be controversial, and we have experience addressing community concerns, including responding to public comments as part of the CEQA public review process. Our documents include a thorough environmental analysis and provide clear documentation of all research contacts and data sources, reducing the potential for successful legal challenges; we can also assist the City in preparing the administrative record. We keep abreast of regulatory updates and court decisions, which are incorporated into our environmental analysis, as appropriate.
Quality Assurance/Quality Control
CSG is committed to providing high quality documentation that engenders client satisfaction, meets the needs of the project, and withstands legal scrutiny. Therefore, a critical part of our delivery of technically sound and legally defensible documents includes conducting in-house QA/QC reviews concurrently with the preparation of CSG Consultants — On -Call Planning Services: Current Planning & Development Review Support 5 23 CSG CONSULTANTS
documents. Our approach to providing quality, technically sound, and legally defensible reports includes the following steps: we assign staff members who have the appropriate technical expertise to complete the work; upon completion of the first internal draft of a document, it is reviewed by the Project Manager for consistency with the project description, compliance with the approved scope of work, and technical accuracy. Once the work product has been revised and updated to the satisfaction of the Project Manager, it is sent to our Publications Specialist for review of grammar, proper nomenclature, references, and methodological consistency. The last step before the document is submitted to the City is a thorough and complete word processing review that produces a correctly formatted document, with accurate references to tables, exhibits, appendices, and the table of contents. Only then is a document submitted to the City for review.

BLANKET ADDITIONAL INSURED - WRITTEN
CONTRACTS (ARCHITECTS, ENGINEERS AND
SURVEYORS)
This endorsement modifies insurance provided under the following:
COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY COVERAGE PART
1. The following is added to SECTION II — WHO IS
AN INSURED:
Any person or organization that you agree in a
"written contract requiring insurance" to include as
an additional insured on this Coverage Part, but:
a. Only with respect to liability for "bodily injury",
"property damage" or "personal injury"; and
b. If, and only to the extent that, the injury or
damage is caused by acts or omissions of
you or your subcontractor in the performance
of "your work" to which the "written contract
requiring insurance" applies. The person or
organization does not qualify as an additional
insured with respect to the independent acts
or omissions of such person or organization.
The insurance provided to such additional insured
is limited as follows:
c. In the event that the Limits of Insurance of
this Coverage Part shown in the Declarations
exceed the limits of liability required by the
"written contract requiring insurance", the in-
surance provided to the additional insured
shall be limited to the limits of liability required
by that "written contract requiring insurance".
This endorsement shall not increase the limits
of insurance described in Section 111 — Limits
Of Insurance.
d. This insurance does not apply to the render-
ing of or failure to render any "professional
services" or construction management errors
or omissions.
e. This insurance does not apply to "bodily in-
jury" or "property damage" caused by "your
work" and included in the "products -
completed operations hazard" unless the
"written contract requiring insurance" specifi-
cally requires you to provide such coverage
for that additional insured, and then the insur-
ance provided to the additional insured ap-
CG D4 14 04 08
plies only to such "bodily injury" or "property
damage" that occurs before the end of the pe-
riod of time for which the "written contract re-
quiring insurance" requires you to provide
such coverage or the end of the policy period,
whichever is earlier.
2. The following is added to Paragraph 4.a. of SEC-
TION IV — COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY
CONDITIONS:
The insurance provided to the additional insured
is excess over any valid and collectible "other in-
surance", whether primary, excess, contingent or
on any other basis, that is available to the addi-
tional insured for a loss we cover. However, if you
specifically agree in the "written contract requiring
insurance" that this insurance provided to the ad-
ditional insured under this Coverage Part must
apply on a primary basis or a primary and non-
contributory basis, this insurance is primary to
"other insurance" available to the additional in-
sured which covers that person or organization as
a named insured for such loss, and we will not
share with that "other insurance". But this insur-
ance provided to the additional insured still is ex-
cess over any valid and collectible "other insur-
ance", whether primary, excess, contingent or on
any other basis, that is available to the additional
insured when that person or organization is an
additional insured under any "other insurance".
3. The following is added to SECTION IV — COM-
MERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY CONDITIONS:
Duties Of An Additional Insured
As a condition of coverage provided to the addi-
tional insured:
a. The additional insured must give us written
notice as soon as practicable of an "occur-
rence" or an offense which may result in a
claim. To the extent possible, such notice
should include:

i. How, when and where the "occurrence"
or offense took place;
ii. The names and addresses of any injured
persons and witnesses; and
iii. The nature and location of any injury or
damage arising out of the "occurrence" or
offense.
b. If a claim is made or "suit" is brought against
the additional insured, the additional insured
must:
i. Immediately record the specifics of the
claim or "suit" and the date received; and
ii. Notify us as soon as practicable.
The additional insured must see to it that we
receive written notice of the claim or "suit" as
soon as practicable.
c. The additional insured must immediately send
us copies of all legal papers received in con-
nection with the claim or "suit", cooperate with
us in the investigation or settlement of the
claim or defense against the "suit", and oth-
erwise comply with all policy conditions.
d. The additional insured must tender the de-
fense and indemnity of any claim or "suit" to
any provider of other insurance which would
cover the additional insured for a loss we
cover. However, this condition does not affect
whether this insurance provided to the addi-
tional insured is primary to that other insur-
ance available to the additional insured which
covers that person or organization as a
named insured.
4. The following is added to the DEFINITIONS Sec-
tion:
"Written contract requiring insurance" means that
part of any written contract or agreement under
which you are required to include a person or or-
ganization as an additional insured on this Cover-
age Part, provided that the "bodily injury" and
"property damage" occurs and the "personal in-
jury" is caused by an offense committed:
a. After the signing and execution of the contract
or agreement by you;
b. While that part of the contract or agreement is
in effect; and
c. Before the end of the policy period.

Insured under such other insurance; and
(2) You have agreed in writing in a contract
or agreement that this insurance would
be primary and would not seek

BLANKET ADDITIONAL INSURED - WRITTEN
CONTRACTS (ARCHITECTS, ENGINEERS AND
SURVEYORS)
This endorsement modifies insurance provided under the following:
COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY COVERAGE PART
1. The following is added to SECTION II — WHO IS
AN INSURED:
Any person or organization that you agree in a
"written contract requiring insurance" to include as
an additional insured on this Coverage Part, but:
a. Only with respect to liability for "bodily injury",
"property damage" or "personal injury"; and
b. If, and only to the extent that, the injury or
damage is caused by acts or omissions of
you or your subcontractor in the performance
of "your work" to which the "written contract
requiring insurance" applies. The person or
organization does not qualify as an additional
insured with respect to the independent acts
or omissions of such person or organization.
The insurance provided to such additional insured
is limited as follows:
c. In the event that the Limits of Insurance of
this Coverage Part shown in the Declarations
exceed the limits of liability required by the
"written contract requiring insurance", the in-
surance provided to the additional insured
shall be limited to the limits of liability required
by that "written contract requiring insurance".
This endorsement shall not increase the limits
of insurance described in Section 111 — Limits
Of Insurance.
d. This insurance does not apply to the render-
ing of or failure to render any "professional
services" or construction management errors
or omissions.
e. This insurance does not apply to "bodily in-
jury" or "property damage" caused by "your
work" and included in the "products -
completed operations hazard" unless the
"written contract requiring insurance" specifi-
cally requires you to provide such coverage
for that additional insured, and then the insur-
ance provided to the additional insured ap-
CG D4 14 04 08
plies only to such "bodily injury" or "property
damage" that occurs before the end of the pe-
riod of time for which the "written contract re-
quiring insurance" requires you to provide
such coverage or the end of the policy period,
whichever is earlier.
2. The following is added to Paragraph 4.a. of SEC-
TION IV — COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY
CONDITIONS:
The insurance provided to the additional insured
is excess over any valid and collectible "other in-
surance", whether primary, excess, contingent or
on any other basis, that is available to the addi-
tional insured for a loss we cover. However, if you
specifically agree in the "written contract requiring
insurance" that this insurance provided to the ad-
ditional insured under this Coverage Part must
apply on a primary basis or a primary and non-
contributory basis, this insurance is primary to
"other insurance" available to the additional in-
sured which covers that person or organization as
a named insured for such loss, and we will not
share with that "other insurance". But this insur-
ance provided to the additional insured still is ex-
cess over any valid and collectible "other insur-
ance", whether primary, excess, contingent or on
any other basis, that is available to the additional
insured when that person or organization is an
additional insured under any "other insurance".
3. The following is added to SECTION IV — COM-

erwise comply with all policy conditions.
d. The additional insured must tender the de-
fense and indemnity of any claim or "suit" to
any provider of other insurance which would
cover the additional insured for a loss we
cover. However, this condition does not affect
whether this insurance provided to the addi-
tional insured is primary to that other insur-
ance available to the additional insured which
covers that person or organization as a
named insured.
4. The following is added to the DEFINITIONS Sec-
tion:
"Written contract requiring insurance" means that
part of any written contract or agreement under

UNDERSTANDING OF THE SCOPE OF WORK
Interwestfully understands the City's need fora flexible, responsive, and reliable consultant partner to serve as an extension of City staff.

2. APPROACH TO SERVICES
UNDERSTANDING OF THE REQUESTED SERVICES
Interwest proposes to serve as an extension of City staff by providing responsive on-call planning support tailored to Placentia's current priorities, including development review and plan check; project management and application processing; staff reports and public hearings; counter support and customer service; research and analysis; and CEQA compliance documentation and landscape plan review. Our approach is designed to help the City maintain project momentum, manage workload spikes, and deliver clear, defensible recommendations that are responsive to Placentia's time frames, policy goals, and community expectations.
Interwest is well positioned to support Placentia's need for a flexible, dependable, and collaborative consultant partner. Our team's breadth and depth allow us to assign the most appropriate staff to each task, including junior staff for routine or lower -complexity work when cost-effective, while ensuring all work is overseen by the Project Manager and reviewed through Interwest's internal QA/ QC process before submittal.This approach helps the City maximize value without sacrificing quality, responsiveness, or continuity.
Interwest maintains a deep bench of planning professionals with varied experience levels; we can scale staffing up or down quickly to match workload demands and project complexity.This allows us to provide efficient, right -sized support to Placentia—whether the need is expedited project review, long-range planning, housing implementation, CEQA support, or special studies—while keeping the work moving and controlling overall project costs.
CURRENT PLANNING DEVELOPMENT KEVIEW
Our planners have successfully delivered high-profile projects for municipalities across California, including two -million square foot industrial facilities, 22 -story mixed-use developments, corporate headquarters, and complex subdivisions. Interwest's team offers flexible support tailored to the City's needs, whether on-site, hybrid, or fully remote. Our expertise spans the full range of municipal entitlements, including SB330 and SB35 projects, conditional uses, variances, design reviews, subdivision maps, annexations, zoning map updates, general plan amendments, code changes, housing element implementation, sphere of influence modifications, LAFCO applications, development agreements, and CEQA reviews.
Junior staff efficiently handle routine entitlements, while Senior and Principal Planners oversee more complex projects. Acting as Project Managers underthe supervision of the Department Director ortheir designee, they serve as primary contacts and coordinate entitlement reviews with City staff, outside agencies, consultants, and stakeholders.
To enhance project delivery further, Interwest leverages in-house subject matter experts in engineering, building and safety services, real estate, landscape architecture, and grant administration. This allows us to quickly address any issues by consulting with specialized colleagues to ensure timely solutions.
PLAN CHECK
Interwest routinely reviews building and grading permit applications for compliance with design review standards, zoning standards, site planning, the Subdivision Map Act, the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), conditions of approval, mitigation measures, approved development plans, subdivision code, and other applicable review documents. We can provide these services within a 10 -day period. We have the staffing flexibility and the technical skills to complete comprehensive plan checks on time. We will match the approach and level of review typically applied by your staff.
City of Placentia On -Call Planning Services: Current Planning & Development Review Support 6 105
Additionally, we have the personnel to assign additional staff to cover times when there may be an exceptionally high permit application volume. We will adopt the City's processes, procedures, and project review schedule to deliver the reviews on time. We can complete reviews digitally through BlueBeam,AdobeAcrobat, or other programs thattheTown would prefer. Since our planners have worked with other municipalities, they have experience with several different types of permit tracking/project management systems including CentralSquare (formallyTraklt), OpenGov,AMANDA, and several others.
GENERAL PROJECT MANAGEMENT APPROACH
Our project management approach begins with applying our Plan, Execute, Control, Optimize (PECO) philosophy. The PECO framework, illustrated to the right, is based on our team's experience and industry best practices. We identify, prioritize, allocate, manage, and control the work requirements through this singular, integrated method.
Using the PECO framework, the Interwest team delivers a project management approach that combines the right people, processes, and tools to perform the Scope of Services requirements. The Interwest team's process is structured to streamline our resources and provide responsive services. Successful execution of public works services starts with a responsive team structure that can anticipate and address resource needs.
Our team works on multiple tasks simultaneously and our organizational structure supports the staff in overseeing this process effectively. Project Manager Chantal Power, AICP, will ensure overall project performance and completion.
DIRECT COORDINATION
The PECO framework delivers a contract management
approach that combines the right people, processes, and tools to perform contract work.
APPROACH TO COMMUNICATION AND COORDINATION
One of the keys to the efficient and successful flow of information is clear, effective communication. Everyone involved with a contract of this size and scope must be aware of changes, progress, and challenges. We commit to working with you to determine the best ways to communicate the right information to the right people at the right time. Our priority is to ensure the best possible experience working with our team—with minimum impact on the City and its citizens.
Meetings are an integral part of the plan, especially at contract start-up. Everyone involved must be aware of
progress and changes to expect going forward. We will
prepare communications that can be shared with all City staff, detailing what to expect during contract transition and moving forward.
We work with you to develop a schedule and format to
meet your needs for aggregate reporting. Report formats may include monthly, quarterly, and annual reports
summarizing activity levels, adherence to performance
metrics, and other items of special interest to the City. We ensure our work effort is clearly communicated to the City throughout the contract's life, adjusting as necessary.

PLANNING ANALYSIS AND DOCUMENT PREPARATION
Interwest supports jurisdictions by reviewing, analyzing, and synthesizing planning data to inform clear, defensible recommendations and regulatory compliance. Our team
evaluates land use applications, zoning and code standards, demographic and development trends, and supporting
technical materials to identify policy implications and approval considerations. This analysis is translated into well -organized, accurate planning documents—including staff reports, findings, correction comments, and decision records—that align with local regulations, state requirements, and public process standards while providing clear guidance to applicants, decision -makers, and the public. While all development codes are similar, every city has its specific priorities and goals as outlined in its municipal code. Before beginning a project with the City, Interwest staff will familiarize themselves with the specifics of the City codes.
Interwest will prepare completeness letters, zoning clearances, permit findings, staff reports, ordinance amendments, policy memos, environmental docs, hearing presentations, and
more. For more complex work, we will manage subconsultants/ studies. Our PMs (under City Manager/designee) process
assigned entitlements, coordinating with stakeholders and/or City Attorney. Our experts in engineering/building/real estate/ landscape/grants resolve issues quickly, saving time and money.
Interwest staff, acting as an extension of City staff, can review, process, and prepare staff reports for consideration by the appropriate approval body.As such, they know that coordination among departments is critical to successful project reviews. Our planners understand that land -use regulations, transportation planning, adequate infrastructure, appropriate financing mechanisms, and other technical aspects of development all contribute to successful projects. We have extensive experience with all planning entitlements, including SB35, SB330, SB9, ADU's, and all levels of CEQA review.
Interwest has a strong track record of providing personalized service to clients, meeting project schedules, managing tight budgets, and coordinating closely with staff. Interwest will confirm communications protocols at the project kick-off meeting, including key points of contact and which meetings will be held in person or by conference call.
Not only does every member of our team, at a minimum, have experience with the MS Office Suite, BlueBeam, and Accela or other municipal permit/project management software, but they have all worked the planning counter across various California municipalities. They are highly adept at discussing project details with applicants and the public. Further, Interwest's planners can provide all required planning services remotely via Zoom, MS Teams, WebEx, or other similar video conferencing platforms if the City desires.
Effective communication with the public is of paramount importance to achieving planning goals. Interwest has a diverse group of planners with a variety of backgrounds, enabling us to provide planners who are proficient or native speakers of languages other than English.
Interwest's planners have worked in municipalities throughout California and are aware of the similarities and differences of each client agency. We understand the pressures that applicants and project reviews can place upon agency staff; we tailor our approach to the values and priorities of each of our clients.
For most of our client agencies, there is general support for new development if such development protects and enhances the character of the community. The goals and expectations of each agency vary, and we adjust our practices to meet both the explicit standards adopted by the cities we serve, as well as the expectations established by the decision makers and the practices regularly employed by staff.
City of Placentia On -Call Planning Services: Current Planning & Development Review Support 8 107
ADVANCED PLANNING AND SPECIAL PROJECTS SFRVICES
As the City continues to build a community that is sustainable across all dimensions, more nuance and forethought are required in ordinances, laws, amendments, and variances to the Planning and Zoning sections of the Municipal Code.
Interwest offers Advance Planning services, which typically involve the preparation of policy documents and development standards that will guide future development. Our senior staff has the dual experience of writing policy documents, including general plans, zoning codes, design guidelines, and development standards, as well as implementing such documents through the project review process.
In addition to more typical advanced planning projects, our staff is prepared to assist the City with those unusual and unique projects that arise. Ourstaff has assisted with corridor planning, municipal facilities, coordination with affiliated agencies, and many more capacities. We are creative problem solvers and are always excited to take on new challenges.
Interwest and its proposed staff have experience managing city -initiated advanced planning projects, special projects within specific sites, and focused studies.
The extent of this support within the City's planning context includes the following:
• General Plan Amendments
• Specific Plans and Specific Plan Amendments
• Zoning Map Amendments
• Zoning Text Amendments Associated With Specific Topics (e.g. ADU Regulations) • Focused Land Use Studies
• Objective Design Standards
• Assessment of Legislative Requirements
• Policy/Procedure Memorandum Creation
• Boards, Committees, Commission, and City Council Presentations • Forms and Documents Creation
USER-FRIENDLY CODE
Interwesttakes pride in preparing user-friendlyzoning codes and Subdivision Codes.Ourplanners not only write these documents, but implement and administer the plans through project reviews on a day-to-day basis. We understand the need for clearly written and understandable regulations, both for agency staff and members of the community proposing projects.
DELIBERATE PUBLIC PROCESS
Public outreach for a Subdivision Code update must be approached differently from outreach for a General Plan or Zoning Ordinance update. A General Plan establishes broad policy for a community and generally addresses issues that are important to most residents, while the zoning code is a more technical document that implements the General Plan policy. The Subdivision code, in contrast, is a more technical document that implements General Plan policy and Zoning Ordinance regulations, with specific instructions on how property may be subdivided. Public outreach for a Subdivision Code update, therefore, needs to focus primarily on practitioners in the development community. Public outreach efforts must also clearly communicate to practitioners and the public how proposed changes to existing subdivision regulations will specifically impact them.
"1 appreciate the professional manner
in which [Interwest] represent
themselves to all members of my staff,
always with a desire to be complete in
their communications, working as a
member of our department team and
not separate from it. 1 would highly
recommend their services to any

OPTIONAL SERVICES
CEQA COMPLIANCE DOCUMENTATION
EXPERTISE WITH CEQA AND PLANNING AND ZONING PRACTICES
Interwest is experienced at working with California coastal communities and understands the importance of sea level rise, ocean acidification, heat events and extreme weather, habitat loss, energy resilience, and emission reductions efforts. Our Planners have established relationships with local responsible agencies and are familiar with their requirements. Such agencies include but are not limited to Army Corp of Engineers, California Fish and Wildlife Services, Regional Water Control Board, and the Santa Barbara County Flood Control.
ENVIRONMENTAL (CEQA/NEPA) REVIEW
We understand the value and importance of environmental documentation to allow informed decisions that will meet regulatory requirements and stand up should a project be legally challenged. We also approach environmental clearances with an eye for the lowest appropriate level of analysis. Our process is to first consider CEQA exemptions and whether a previous environmental document might provide adequate CEQA coverage. If additional environmental analysis is required, we immediately inform our client, offer options, and seek direction on how to proceed.
Our team can undertake both the application review and the environmental documentation of a given project. This approach can benefit a project review by daylighting and resolving environmental issues early in the project review thereby resulting in an environmentally superior project.
Our services can be provided as technical support to City or municipal staff, as a project manager independently managing third - party environmental consultants, or as authors of environmental documents. Our staff has conducted CEQA reviews for a wide variety of projects including large and small development applications, updates, and amendments to General and Specific Plans, and updates to zoning ordinances. If so directed, our staff can prepare Initial Studies and Mitigated Negative Declarations/Negative Declarations consistent with municipal policies and practices, CEQA Guidelines, and planning and zoning law requirements.
In addition to environmental analysis of projects under review by the municipality, the Interwest team can also provide third - party peer review of environmental documentation and technical analyses (prepared by others) for projects contemplated by other agencies that have the potential to impact the municipality.
In such cases, our team would review draft environmental documents and prepare comments on behalf of the municipality. Our team is available to attend public meetings in person or virtually depending on the needs of the City.

DESIGN GUIDELINES
Irwindale, CA
The City of Irwindale adopted its first Zoning Code in 1966 and has only been amended incrementally over the past 50 years. Previously, the City had relied on the County's zoning that existed prior to incorporation. Numerous amendments happened over time, which have led to inconsistencies and complicated the Code's organization. The Code is being updated to not only incorporate current best practices, industry standards, and legal mandates, but also to comply with the City's General Plan and be internally consistent and user-friendly. Interwest is also assisting the City with preparing objective design standards, as well as updating its subdivision regulations, ADU ordinance, and commercial and industrial design guidelines.
Interwest is updating the City's design guidelines to implement Irwindale's design objectives for commercial and industrial development. The guidelines will convey to the reader Irwindale's expectations for high quality development that helps realize the vision for the City of Irwindale and strengthens the character of the community. The new design guidelines will also address the public realm including streetscapes and amenities to contribute to enhancing the character and identity of the City, including signage, lighting, landscaping, parking, streetscapes, and open space/public areas. Photo images, diagrams, and illustrative drawings will be incorporated throughout the document to explain desired architectural elements and features. Nick Pergakes, AICP serves as the project manager for this project.

0 SAN DIMAS DOWNTOWN SPECIFIC PLAN
San Dimas, CA
Interwest assisted the City of San Dimas with the preparation of its first Downtown Specific Plan. The Specific Plan established a planning and zoning framework that encouraged innovative, transit -oriented development in the downtown area while preserving the historic character of the district. It included an extensive community outreach process, including meetings with a community advisory committee, five public workshops, and an interactive project website that solicited public input.
During the planning process, new housing, retail, employment, and hospitality uses in the downtown area were proposed in conjunction with a new Metro light-rail line and transit station that opened in 2025. Several opportunity sites within walking distance of the transit station provided significant potential for infill development and adaptive reuse of existing underutilized properties in the downtown area.
Creating a strong community identity and sense of place—supported by design guidelines for buildings and the public realm—were key outcomes of the process.
The Plan was formally adopted in October 2024.

CORONA DOWNTOWN REVITALIZATION SPECIFIC
PLAN UPDATE
Corona, CA
Interwest assisted the City of Corona in updating its Downtown Revitalization Specific Plan (DRSP), which was the first comprehensive update of the plan in twenty-five years.
The new Specific Plan aligns seamlessly with the City of Corona's recently adopted General Plan and 6th Cycle Housing Element. It also provides guidance on how new downtown development can complement the broader vision of the City's future growth and development.
The DRSP encompasses 620 acres dedicated to the redevelopment of the downtown area, positioning it as the heart of the community. The overall goal for the update to the DRSP was to harmonize and establish contemporary development and design standards.
The design standards aim to encourage downtown -style buildings and businesses, provide the framework for a walkable community, create high-quality public spaces that complement existing historic and significant structures, and bolster economic activities of the Downtown environment.

A. Minimum Scope and Limits of Insurance City reserves the right to review any and all of the required insurance policies and/or endorsements, but has no obligation to do so.
Failure to demand evidence of full compliance with the insurance requirements set forth in this Agreement or failure to identify any insurance deficiency shall not relieve Consultant from, nor be construed or deemed a waiver of, its obligation to maintain the required insurance at all times during the performance, including any extension thereof, of this Agreement. Consultant shall obtain, maintain, and keep in full force and effect during the life of this Agreement, including any extension thereof, all of the following minimum scope of insurance coverages:

The aggregate limit, encompassing the above coverage, shall apply separately to this project/location. If Consultant maintains higher limits than the specified minimum limits, City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the Consultant.
2. Business Automobile Liability Insurance
Business automobile liability for all owned, hired, leased, and non -owned vehicles at least as broad as the most current version of ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 01, with a policy limit of not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) combined single limit per accident.

compensation insurance, and shall furnish a certificate of insurance to the Project Manager before execution of this Agreement by the City. The City, its officers, officials, agents, employees, and volunteers shall not be responsible for any claims in law or equity occasioned by failure of the Consultant to comply with this Section.
4. Standards for Insurance Companies
