INTRODUCTION
GENERAL INTRODUCTION
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
PLAN APPROVALS AND
PERMITTING
THE EXISTING SITE
Pacific Coast Land Design, Inc. (PCLD) is eager to continue working with the City of Santa Clarita on the completion of the Newhall Park infiltration Project. As designers of community parks and public spaces in the City of Santa Clarita, PCLD understands the unique history and opportunities presented to City Staff, the community, and the future design team in the design and construction of the park renovations associated with the Newhall Park infiltration BMP project.
PCLD understands that the City of Santa Clarita is seeking the services of a well-qualified design team to develop multiple iterations of concept designs, 3D models and renderings, construction plans, specifications and estimates (PS&E), provide construction support, and record drawings for the renovation of Newhall Park in coordination with the subgrade infiltration gallery BMP by PACE. PCLD and its consultant team will prepare the required documents necessary to obtain approval and permitting of 100% plans, specifications and estimates, and will work closely with the City Stakeholders to successfully complete the project goals and protect the interest of the City.
The PCLD team acknowledges that the proposed project boundaries lie within the permitting jurisdiction of the City of Santa Clarita and Los Angeles County. While the focus of the project is to enhance park amenities at Newhall Park, the design team will also provide the City with the services necessary to secure the needed approvals and permits from City of Santa Clarita Divisions and L.A. County Departments, including storm and sanitation, Health and Fire, CEQA, and SWPPP. PCLD is including Aquatic Design Group in the consultant team specifically to ensure efficient City and County approvals of the splash pad. PCLD has years of experience coordinating with City Stakeholders on park and public facing projects and will ensure that the design reflects the values and needs of the City to ensure a smooth approval process with City Agencies and Divisions. Additionally, the design team will prepare plans, exhibits, and/or documentation for construction access agreements with L.A. County Flood Control District, Placerita Junior High, Hart High School, and property owners as necessary.
The team has reviewed all released Addenda, and the solutions and scope of work presented in the proposal are based on the information provided in the RFP and answers to proposer questions given as provided by the City.
Newhall Park is a 14.3-acre park in Santa Clarita flanked by Hart Highschool and Placerita Junior high on Newhall Avenue at Dalby Drive. The park has provided recreational amenities for Santa Clarita families and athletes for over half a century and will be the site of a new subgrade infiltration gallery stormwater BMP as part of the Upper Santa Clara River Enhanced Watershed Management Program. In 2019, PCLD was contracted by the 2 | PCLD Newhall Park Infiltration Project Proposal
DESIGN OPPORTUNITIES
City of Santa Clarita to assist PACE engineering with conceptual design of park renovations after proposed infiltration gallery installation. Through the design process, the design team and City Stakeholders analyzed a series of potential BMP layouts and park renovation concepts that included major impacts to existing park amenities and vegetation. This design was put on hold in part due to the removal of a considerable number of trees along Dalby Drive. The BMP for the current design effort is much more sensitive to the existing park landscape and amenities. Likewise, existing trees will be protected to the maximum extent possible in PCLD’s park renovation designs.
The PCLD team is excited to work with the City on the design and construction of park renovations in Newhall Park following the construction of the BMP facility infiltration. Care will be taken to preserve and protect existing trees at every stage of the design and construction process and will be based on an updated Arborist Report for all trees in the park. The following is a list of design opportunities for Newhall Park based on the RFP and PCLD’s familiarity with the park:
• The existing playground is located under impressive Heritage Oak Tree canopy and renovations to the playground may continue to utilize the existing shade while supplementing new inclusive play features and play equipment with new shade structures.
• A perimeter walking path would improve access to all edges of the park and enhance exercise opportunities for walkers and joggers.
• Splash Pads have been a top resident request at Santa Clarita Park outreach meetings over the last few years and one could be installed at Newhall Park
• The Softball Field could be enhanced with a new outfield fence and renovated field lighting.
• The grass fields could be further defined with a Multi-Purpose Field located safely away from the Softball Field and illuminated by the renovated field lighting.
• As part of the park enhancements, the existing restrooms could be upgraded to current ADA/CBC standards.
• Existing parking and maintenance vehicle access could be improved.
• Access will be improved to the existing stone BBQs and gazebo which will be protected in place and integrated into new park features.
• Access to the existing BBQs and gazebo could be improved while also protecting these features in place, and a new picnic pavilion could be constructed to compliment the outdoor dining opportunities at the park.
• Nature-Based solutions can be used to secure Measure W funding, improve aesthetics and biodiversity in the park, provide educational opportunities, and as a means for conveying offsite stormwater drainage from Hart Highschool.
• Similar to PCLD’s work in other parks, a Civic Artwork concrete pad could be installed in coordination with the Public Arts Commission. • The existing Multi-Purpose Room and Maintenance Buildings finishes, systems, and internal wall layouts could be assessed and improved.
• PCLD and the design team are familiar with City Standards and preferences for park material, quality and cost and can ensure PCLD Newhall Park Infiltration Project Proposal | 3
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
that the improvements meet the needs of City and community. • In developing designs, standards, and working closely with City CIP, Parks, and LMD on a number of projects, PCLD can provide designs for low a water-use, native and regionally adapted plant palette that will beautify Newhall Park while minimizing maintenance and overall water-use.
• Low Impact Development (LID) drainage solutions and green streets strategies may be used as key components, developing the site to contain its runoff and runoff from Hart Highschool through Nature-Based systems that will deliver stormwater to the BMP via gentle mounding and swales that will absorb pollutants and increase permeability in the park.
The work to be performed will be based on the latest pertinent City policies, codes, standard drawings, and ordinances and meet all applicable state and federal guidelines. The design team will work in close coordination with PACE to ensure accurate design and construction. PCLD’s previous design work on the Project will help frame initial base drawings and concept design. Development of the park plans will be consistent with City format and approval requirements.
The City’s Project Manager will direct and coordinate this Project. The Consulting Project Manager, PCLD Senior Associate Chris Horton shall receive, coordinate, and transmit reports and documents to and from the consulting team and function as a liaison with the City team and City Stakeholders. Working in partnership with the consultant team, PCLD will take the lead in developing overall design concepts that will improve the character of the park for all residents of Santa Clarita.

At Pacific Coast Land Design, we have always acknowledged the importance of strong visual and graphic communications through renderings, plans, vignettes, sections and other media. As landscape architects, this is often the most effective way to communicate our ideas to our clients and end users.
We take pride in our ability to meet varied project visualization needs and provide graphic communications that aid in the interface between design, the client, and the public. We offer a diverse catalogue of techniques, styles, aesthetics and media to match the specific demands of each project. From photorealistic renderings that can precisely model environmental conditions to artistic sketchy vignettes, we produce images that communicate the design intent while captivating the audience in the potential. We also offer immersive multi-media experiences including 3-dimensional walkthrough videos, browser based 3-dimensional panorama viewing, and even choreographed virtual reality (VR) experiences.
With these capabilities come the responsibilty to produce the right visualization and communication for the right purpose. In particular, the public participation process offers different challenges with regards to visualization and graphic communications. To accomplish successful participation and feedback with design, PCLD has experience facilitating, organizing, leading and promoting meetings, while also designing the graphics and media needed to communicate to the audience. We are well versed in the preparation of interactive exhibits that encourage people to invest their ideas into the process and interact with the design.

VIA PRINCESSA PARK
BACKGROUND
DESIGN
Via Princessa Park is a County of Los Angeles Measure W project that focuses on providing recreation, beautification, and stormwater management. This project, showcases PCLD’s master planning, project visualization, construction documentation, and interdisciplinary & inter- agency coordination capabilities.
Visitors to Via Princessa Park will cross under the Metro Station via a tunnel with decorative walls referencing local geology. On the park side of the station, visitors walk through decorative art archways on the way to the park plaza. The art archways reference the 8’ diameter corrugated infiltration gallery pipes in the subgrade BMP. The park plaza includes shaded seating areas, a restroom, wayfinding, civic art and a flowing pavement pattern that references the Santa Clara River. The shaded nature-themed formal playground will be located adjacent to the plaza and restroom. The park will include four illuminated multi-purpose fields surrounded by a system of accessible pathways, and a nature based stormwater system that utilizes swales and mounding to convey runoff to the underground BMP West of Honby Channel. The swales and berms will function as informal play opportunities and lead into the Nature Play area on the park peninsula boardered by the Santa Clara River and Honby Channel. Public art, education, native planting, and wayfinding elements satisfy requirements for Measure W funding, and will engage users in both formal and passive moments throughout the park. Lastly, a variety of shaded amenities are strategically placed around the park, inviting users to take part in an assortment of active and passive recreation opportunites.

ARROYO VERDE INCLUSIVE PLAYGROUND
BACKGROUND
DESIGN
In 2017, the Thomas Fire destroyed one of the playgrounds in Ventura’s Arroyo Verde Park. The City decided not to replace it in kind, but instead, to develop the first inclusive playground in the city. PCLD led the design effort from concepts through construction, presenting ideas to the community and gathering ideas and inspiration. PCLD also assisted the City of Ventura in fundraing over $450,000 to construct the $1.08 million playground. Opened in May 2022 to much excitement, the project has since won two “Project of the Year” awards through the American Public Works Association (2022 Ventura County Chapter, 2023 National).
The approximately 10,000 sf playground incorporates feedback from numerous community outreach meetings and advice gleaned from local professionals specializing in care for children with disabilities to develop the community-specific inclusive goals for this unique playground. The playground contains areas to stimulate physical play, music, balance, swings, a sensory garden with stormwater infiltration basin, and cozy spot with hammocks and a pole fort for moments when it is necessary to seek respite from stimulus.
The playground utilizes the topography in the park to access to multiple slides, climbing features, and also provide access to the upper decks of large “fort” play structure that was inpired by the park’s original fort play structure. The smaller, 2-5-year-old, structure offers many accessible activities and sensory play opportunities. The two structures are separated by ground level balance components, including log steppers, fallen logs, and balance beams with railings on either side for children of all abilities, as well as, a flush mount merry-go-round and inclusive seesaw. Swings complete the playground with choices for all abilities.

BACKGROUND
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
AND DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
PROJECT DESIGN
Children’s Park, in the center of Isla Vista, has watched for almost 70 years as the unincorporated, university adjacent community has grown and evolved around it. The Isla Vista Recreation and Park District (IVRPD) set out to update the parks aged amenities and infrastructure, teaming with PCLD to conduct a targeted community engagement campaign and conceptual site design effort for a grant application to the California State Parks Statewide Park Program (SPP).
PCLD worked with IVRPD staff to develop a COVID-19 safe community engagement plan that not only met, but exceeded the grant guidelines and offered residents several opportunities and venues to engage the potential for Children’s Park truncated within 6-week window. PCLD designed engagement activities that could be conducted at hybrid socially distanced in-person events and in virtual sessions to answer three basic questions: what, where, and why Children’s Park, and which amenities and programs should be included in the grant application. Qualitative and quantitative data was pulled to answer those questions thoroughly and eventually leading to the 2022 award of $4.2 million in funding for this park. After grant award, IVRPD and PCLD have conducted another 8 public meetings soliticing community feedback, progressing the design development of the park, and solidifying community support for the project.
The project design is centered on the desire to integrate natural systems and elements into the park with hopes of helping neighborhood Children develop a better understanding and sensitivity for the natural world. The park will feature a renovated community building, designed by project architect RNT Architects, a large nature-themed, Monarch butterfly inspired playground, large group and small group picnic and BBQ areas, a pollinator meadow, and an open field turf area for passive recreation. The project is currently in construction documents and hopes to start construction in early 2026.

Community engagement has been central to the design development of Children’s Park. PCLD designed engagement COVID-19 safe engagement activities to answer three basic questions: what, where, and why Children’s Park, and which amenities and programs should be included in the park.
The rendered site plan illustrates the park’s primary design features with the neighboring context.
The park’s existing building will be renovated to cater to the District’s children focused programing initiatives.
The park’s renovated playgrounds
will feature Monarch butterfly inspired
custom play equipment by Earthscape.
Mature tree canopy is to be largely conserved with a 5-1 replacement strategy for those removed. An existing rock wall is the basis for a deck to be used for community events and learning.
The back park area remains an open space for dedicated active play with the addition of two accessible parking stalls.
Incorporating natural systems is central to the design of Children’s Park as illustrated here where the park’s central stormwater conveyance merges seamlessly with a pollinator meadow.
Local children provide feedback on their ideas about
custom nature play park features at a public meeting.

BACKGROUND
DESIGN
Plans to develop Kellogg Park as a neighborhood park for the Westside Ventura community began in 2013, as a dream for a vacant lot along Ventura Ave. The City of Ventura was able to partner with the Trust for Public Land to purchase the 2.4-acre property, beginning an active partnership with members of the community to develop a conceptual plan that could meet the varied demands. PCLD was chosen to move the design of the park from concept through construction documents, present ideas to the community, and eventually see the park through construction. The park opened in April of 2018 to much local fanfare.
The park is structured around a ¼-mile looped walking trail, a natural “river” stormwater swale, and a playground. The forms within the park are derived from the geologic and hydrologic formations of the nearby Ventura River watershed, all with the intent of providing children and other visitors an educational backdrop for the ecology of the region.
The park also features a multi-generational community gathering area with an amphitheater, varied seating, beanbag toss games, and game tables. The playground divides 2-5 and 5-12 year-old play areas with a ridge feature. This ridge feature provides climbing features and access to several raised playground structures, including a “Jack-and-Jill” artificial- turf slide hill.
The stormwater swale “river” feature is designed to detain and infiltrate runoff from large storm events by containing both on-site water and also by pulling in runoff from neighboring streets to alleviate local flooding problems and mitigate runoff quality. In addition to the stormwater benefits, which only occur during California’s seasonal rains, the swale also serves as a use amenity with play facilities scattered along its course.
The feature terminates in the center of a “stormwater amphitheater,” using a variety of native plantings as the centerpiece to a community amenity.

PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATIONS
PCLD’s previous work on the project and familiarity with Newhall Park will streamline this task. The Design Team will acquire existing data, reports, and drawings relative to the Newhall Park Infiltration project from the City and will supplement with site reconnaissance and survey to establish the base plan. Information gathered and analyzed during this phase will be presented to City Staff and stakeholders in the form of Opportunities and Constraints exhibits that will be the basis for the Conceptual Design effort listed in Task 3 – Design.
Field Reconnaissance
• PCLD and the design team will conduct field reconnaissance over several site visits in coordination with City Staff to assess existing conditions of the project site and surrounding areas, with a focus on identifying “nature-based” opportunities that can be incorporated into the project design.
• The design team will also create UAV (drone) video of the project area for use during design and project meetings.
» OUTPUT - Opportunities and Constraints Analysis, UAV (drone) site video Document Research and Review
• Obtain and review available reports, maps, data, as-built plans, and applicable previous studies of the project site.
• Locate all existing underground and overhead utilities withing the project area and include them in the project base map.
• Agency and utility company coordination to identify design constraints. • Review and analyze findings with the PDT to determine design controls and considerations necessary for plan preparation and approvals. » OUTPUT – Project base map and summary of findings for PDT 22 | PCLD Newhall Park Infiltration Project Proposal
Survey
• PCLD and the design team understand that previous survey data can be provided, but that it may need to be updated/supplemented. As such, the survey subconsultant (ECG) will perform and coordinate all survey and mapping necessary to establish existing property boundaries for the project. Mapping of existing easements and restricted areas will be included within this scope of work.
Additionally, we will perform and coordinate all required topographic survey to complete the construction documents. Research, compile, and verify all existing control data, including research of all affected utility companies within the project area. Sufficient mapping of adjacent parcels will need to be performed to adequately study all potential grading and drainage impacts. We understand that special notice should be taken to the drainage near the adjacent high school. All survey work will be coordinated with all project consultants to ensure the control for the project is consistent.
• Due to the coarse nature and limitations of the existing 2018 aerial survey, ECG recommends a new base map that will be prepared to meet current design expectations and project needs. ECG will provide a new topographic base map for the project site using a combination of aerial mapping and targeted supplemental field surveys. Aerial imagery will be captured and processed to produce 1” = 20’ mapping with 1-foot contour intervals. Supplemental field surveys will identify visible site features not captured by aerial methods, critical design constraints, and all park tree locations (greater than 4” in diameter). • Boundary compilation will be based on current assessor data and a current Title Report, with easements of record included in the final base map. Boundary monuments sufficient in number will be recovered and tied to project control to orient the boundary to the topographic base mapping.
• Final deliverables will include AutoCAD and PDF files, with the survey signed and sealed by a California Licensed Land Surveyor.
» OUTPUT – Topographical Survey AutoCAD and PDF files, with the survey signed and sealed by a California Licensed Land Surveyor with hardcopies available Existing Utility Research
• Key team subconsultant Encompass Consultant Group (ECG) will research existing underground/overhead utilities within the project area and will coordinate with the existing utility providers to determine and identify locations of all existing underground and overhead utilities within the project area.. ECG will obtain available utility data from record drawings and provide the information as part of the site base map for the project and will Confer and coordinate with affected agencies and utility companies to identify design controls and considerations necessary for plan preparation and approvals.
• In addition to desktop research, ECG will perform nondestructive utility investigations using geophysical techniques such as ground-penetrating radar (GPR), electromagnetic (EM) locating, or equivalent technologies. These methods will supplement record research and provide improved accuracy in identifying subsurface utility locations, particularly in areas where records are unclear or incomplete. These methods do not guarantee that all utilities will be located. We assume 5 days of fieldwork to complete this task. Utilities will be flagged and marked. ECG survey will immediately follow to locate the marking and update the survey basemap.
• This task also includes submitting a ticket to Underground Service Alert (USA) for field marking of known utilities. Additionally, selective potholing will be performed at targeted locations where utilities are suspected to be in conflict with proposed design features. Potholing will be limited to critical locations where vertical and
2.3 2.4
PCLD Newhall Park Infiltration Project Proposal | 23
horizontal confirmation is necessary to mitigate risk during design and construction.
We assume 3 days of on-site potholing. No traffic control will be necessary. • ECG will use professional judgment to prepare utility mapping based on the best available data and investigation tools. However, due to inherent limitations in utility records and field detection technologies, utility information provided shall be considered approximate and for design reference only. Final utility locations shall be verified by the contractor in the field during construction » OUTPUT – Existing Utility Documentation, Pothole Mapping CASp Field Inspection Report
• As a Certified Access Specialist (CASp), TJF Architects, will visit the site and conduct an accessibility assessment of existing park features to remain, including, but not limited, any existing buildings to remain that require accessibility upgrades, existing parking facilities, existing paths-of-travel to remain, and existing BBQs and gazebo area to remain. This report will serve as the basis for key decision making regarding renovations to existing structures or park amenities, particularly in terms of enhancements to existing restrooms, multi-purpose rooms, and maintenance building as identified in the RFP.
» OUTPUT – CASp Field Inspection Report, Concept and PS&E CASp review Existing Tree Survey (including Oak Tree Report) and Tree Recommendations • Based on the 2020 Conceptual Site Plan provided with the RFP, and PCLD’s previous work on the project, there are nearly 200 existing trees on the Newhall Park site, many of which are Heritage Oaks. We understand the value that the City and the community place in preserving these existing trees. The team’s arborist, Dave Muffly, will create an Existing Tree Report that will assign tree values based on size, health, appearance and potential conflicts for all of the trees in the park. Additionally, the arborist will create a list of recommended proposed trees for the park based on existing tree species and site conditions. » OUTPUT – Existing Tree Report (including Oak Tree Report), Existing Tree Protection Recommendations/Specifications, Tree Planting Recommendations
CONCEPTUAL DESIGN
PCLD and the design team understand that project scope-of-work will be solidified through a series of conceptual design submittals and reviews. This phase of work will begin with the development of initial conceptual design alternatives that will be vetted by city staff and also presented to the public (see Task 1.6 Public Engagement) to ultimately deliver a refined conceptual site design for the project. PCLD will coordinate with the PDT after concept submittal to review, respond to comments, and provide recommendations to City staff. The conceptual design tasks herein will be completed prior to the Measure W Project Modification Request submittal.
• Per RFP Subtask 3.1, PCLD has divided conceptual design into tasks 3.1 – 3.4 to provide 4 submittals of conceptual plans with several layout options or alternate design options included in each submittal. Alternatives through the conceptual design process will balance the expected project budget, goals, requirements, and environmental constraints. These tasks also include meetings/presentations of the alternatives to City Staff and the alternatives and deliverables crafted during this task may be presented to the public to gain feedback from residents and key stakeholders (see Task 1.6 – Public Engagement). » OUTPUT - Outputs for these tasks include:
» Illustrative Conceptual Site Plans – The team will coordinate to present illustrative site plans for each of the alternatives presented. The site plans will

SCHEDULE
This Gantt chart graphically displays tasks
from the work plan throughout the 18-month
design schedule (Tasks 1-4) and includes
assumed review periods, bidding periods, and
the 180-day estimated construction schedule
in YELLOW.
Digitally, this is a dynamic project schedule
with certain tasks linked together. This
functionality will allow us to continually refine
and update the project schedule as the
project progresses and report back to the
City on critical scheduling considerations
throughout the project.
To meet the 18-month anticipated schedule
from kick-off to bidding, this schedule
incorporates six (6) district review periods
following critical milestones. Each review
period follows an official progress review
meeting with the project team. The review
time frames in the schedule are assumed as
follows:
• Concept Phase City Review (Initial,
2nd, 3rd, and Final) – 10 working days (2
weeks)
• PS&E Phase City Review (30%, 60%, 90%,
and 100%) – 20 working days (4 weeks)
TEAM STRUCTURE Our team structure, as illustrated by the organizational chart below will be directed through Pacific Coast Land Design, as the primary connection for the City of Santa Clarita to the comprehensive and qualified team we have assembled for this incredible opportunity.

31 | PCLD Newhall Park Infiltration Project Proposal
This new 25-acre city park featuresa pelota Mixteca court, community garden, playground, pump track, pavilion, amphitheater, and restrooms.
ECG services included, topographic survey, grading and drainage, paving, utility infrastructure, ADA accessibility, and hydrology. A key grant requirement was the inclusion of a dry creek bed, which plays an integral role in the park’s stormwater management strategy. ECG designed the grading to ensure the dry creek bed serves as the primary stormwater conveyance system. Adjacent to the creek, biofiltration BMPs were designed to meet the stormwater quality requirements, collecting and filtering stormwater before it overflows into the creek. Additionally, the dry creek bed functions as an above-grade detention basin during smaller storm events, reducing the size of the required underground detention system. Together, the dry creek and biofiltration BMPs highlight the park’s natural stormwater management features.

VILLAGE AT THE PARK
REIDY CREEK GOLF CLUBHOUSE
BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB
DAI provided a collection of common buildings for this master planned community in Ventura County.
A master community center and pool was located within the residences and kept the suburban scale of the neighborhood. All of the facilities for the regional sports park, including restrooms and snack bar, community gathering spaces and maintenance facilities were designed by DAI for heavy use, long term durability and to withstand the occasional foul ball.
A public/private partnership between a developer and the City of Escondido, a new community was created that included a new public golf course. DAI was selected to design the clubhouse, cart barn and gate house entrance to the community. We were inspired by buildings anchored to the landscape in the tradition of Craftsman era bungalows.
The Boys and Girls Club started life as a 1920s gym with a substantial addition in the 1950s. The facility had been insensitively modified over the years to the point it was unsafe for the children that it served. DAI removed all of the unsafe internal conditions, reconfigured the spaces for the new services to be offered, and created a playful facade to welcome the children.

The Electrical Engineering Division of Thoma Electric, Inc. provides electrical design and consulting services in all facets of the Electrical Construction and Communications Industry throughout California.
The Electrical Engineering Division of Thoma Electric, Inc. is unique in its ability to maintain a closeness to the construction community because of the association with its sister Construction Division. This allows the Engineering group to consider the cost, quality, success and failure of systems with which the Construction Division has had experience. This tool is of benefit to an owner as it provides quality planning and “value engineering” during design, rather than after design is complete. Practical solutions to solving problems have always been our strength.
Communications Systems have become increasingly sophisticated, and the integration of voice, data and power system controls will continue to play a major role in modern design. Our staff is actively involved in reviewing and implementing the emerging government and industry standards for communications systems design.

2. SUMMARY OF INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
a. These are the Indemnity and Insurance Requirements for Contractors providing services or supplies to City of Santa Clarita (City). By agreeing to perform the work or submitting a proposal, you verify that you comply with and agree to be bound by these requirements. If any additional Contract documents are executed, the actual Indemnity language and Insurance Requirements may include additional provisions as deemed appropriate by City’s Purchasing Agent.
b. You should check with your Insurance advisors to verify compliance and determine if additional coverage or limits may be needed to adequately insure your obligations under this agreement.

The full coverage and limits afforded under Contractor’s policies of Insurance shall be available to Buyer and these Insurance Requirements shall not in any way act to reduce coverage that is broader or includes higher limits than those required.
The Insurance obligations under this agreement shall be: 1—all the Insurance coverage and limits carried by or available to the Contractor; or 2—the minimum Insurance requirements shown in this agreement, whichever is greater. Any insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits and coverage required, which are applicable to a given loss, shall be available to City.

3. INDEMNIFICATION
a. To the fullest extent permitted by law, CONSULTANT shall defend (with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to CITY), indemnify and hold harmless CITY and its officers, agents, departments, officials, representatives and employees (collectively “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, loss, cost, damage, injury (including, without limitation, economic harm, injury to or death of an employee of PCLD Newhall Park Infiltration Project Proposal | B.iii
CONSULTANT or its subconsultants), expense and liability of every kind, nature and description that arise from or relate to (including, without limitation, incidental and consequential damages, court costs, attorneys’ fees, litigation expenses and fees of expert consultants or expert witnesses incurred in connection therewith and costs of investigation) that arise from or relate to, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from: (1) CONSULTANT’s performance of Services under this Agreement, or any part thereof; (2) any negligent act or omission of CONSULTANT, any subconsultant, anyone directly or indirectl y employed by them, or anyone that they control; (3) any actual or alleged infringement of the patent rights, copyright, trade secret, trade name, trademark, service mark or any other intellectual or proprietary right of any person or persons in consequenc e of the use by CITY, or any other Indemnitee, of articles or Services to be supplied in the performance of this Agreement; or (4) any breach of this Agreement (collectively “Liabilities”). Such obligations to defend, hold harmless and indemnify any Indemnitee shall not apply to the extent such Liabilities are caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, but shall apply to all other Liabilities. The foregoing shall be subject to the limitations of California Civil Code section 2782.8 as to any design professional services performed by CONSULTANT and in particular the limitation on CONSULTANT’s duty to defend whereby such duty only arises for claims relating to the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of CONSULTANT as well as the limitation on the cost to defend whereby CONSULTANT will only bear such cost in proportion to CONSULTANT’s proportionate percentage of fault (except as otherwise provided in section 2782.8).
b. The foregoing indemnification provisions will not reduce or affect other rights or obligations which would otherwise exist in favor of the CITY and other Indemnitees.
c. CONSULTANT shall place in its subconsulting agreements and cause its subconsultants to agree to indemnities and insurance obligations in f avor of CITY and other Indemnitees in the exact form and substance of those contained in this Agreement.
4. INSURANCE
a. Before commencing performance under this Agreement, and at all other times this Agreement is effective, CONSULTANT will procure and maintain the following types of insurance with coverage limits complying, at a minimum, with the limits set forth below:
Type of Insurance Limits
Commercial general liability: $1,000,000
Professional liability $1,000,000
Business automobile liability $1,000,000
Workers compensation Statutory requirement
b. Commercial general liability insurance will meet or exceed the requirements of ISO -CGL Form No. CG 00 01 11 85 or 88. The amount of insurance set forth above will be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. Automobile coverage will be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 01 06 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto). Liability policies will be endorsed to name CITY, it s officials, and employees as “additional insureds” under said insurance coverage and to state that such insurance will be deemed “primary” such that any other insurance that may be carried by CITY will be excess thereto. Such endorsement must be reflected on ISO B.iv | PCLD Newhall Park Infiltration Project Proposal
Form No. CG 20 10 11 85 or 88, or equivalent. Such insurance will be on an “occurrence,” not a “claims made,” basis and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to CITY.
c. Professional liability coverage will be on an “occurrence basis” if such coverage is available, or on a “claims made” basis if not available. When coverage is provided on a “claims made basis,” CONSULTANT will continue to renew the insurance for a period of at least three ( 3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any erro rs or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.
d. CONSULTANT will furnish to CITY duly authenticated Certificates of Insurance evidencing maintenance of the insurance required under this Agre ement, including endorsements, and such other evidence of insurance or copies of policies as may be reasonably required by CITY from time to time. Insurance must be placed with California-admitted insurers with (other than workers compensation) a current A.M. Best Company Rating of at least “A:VII.”
e. Waiver of Subrogation: The insurer(s) agree to waive all rights of subrogation against CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, agents, volunteers and employees for losses paid under the terms of the workers compensation policy which arise from work performed by CONSULTANT for CITY.
f. Should CONSULTANT, for any reason, fail to obtain and maintain the insurance required by this Agreement, CITY may obtain such coverage at CONSULTANT’s expense and dedu ct the cost of such insurance from payments due to CONSULTANT under this Agreement or terminate pursuant to TERMINATION section. In the alternative, should CONSULTANT fail to meet any of the insurance requirements under this Agreement, City may terminate this Agreement immediately with no penalty.
g. Should CONSULTANT’S insurance required by this Agreement be cancelled at any point prior to expiration of the policy, CONSULTANT must notify City within 24 hours of receipt of notice of cancellation.
Furthermore, CONSULTANT must obtain replacement coverage that meets all contractual requirements within 10 days of the prior insurer’s issuance of notice of cancellation. CONSULTANT must ensure that there is no lapse in coverage.
h. The CITY shall be entitled to any coverage in excess of the minimums required herein.
I have read and understand the above requirements and agree to be bound by them for any work performed for the City.

PCLD Newhall Park Infiltration Project Cost Proposal | ii
INTRODUCTION
ASSUMPTIONS
On the following pages the team has defined the effort and associated costs to the City in relation to the scope of work as outlined in the Work Statement. In developing a comprehensive project approach, we are providing a scope and fee breakdown that addresses all known costs of charges to the City as part of this project. Costs illustrated in this proposal are based on inclusive blended rates, encompassing known project- related or supported expenses, including travel expenses. Pacific Coast Land Design has defined the expected hours per task by Staff Level for the work to be carried out by the prime consultant. Sub-Consultant costs are reflected as a lump-sum effort per task and include a 10% administration and management mark-up fee. Along with the detailed task-related fees, the team has provided a list of anticipated reimbursable expenses.
The team welcomes a dialogue on scope and overall fee refinement based on best meeting the City’s programming and budgeting parameters.
While we understand from City Q & A responses that the architectural improvements are secondary to the BMP and park improvements, we have included comprehensive architectural and relate subconsultant fees to cover the full extent of the stated potential improvements in the RFP. Refinement of those design services and fees may best be adjusted following the confirmation of project programming and completion of the conceptual design tasks.
Contracted services are through Conceptual Design Task 3.4, Services following Task 3.4 will be negotiated and awarded under separate contract. Based on the scope of work outlined within the RFP, PCLD and the design team have included the following list of assumptions regarding the services proposed:
• The design team assumes the infiltration BMP design by others is adequate to structurally support the proposed park features structurally and that the hydrology analysis includes the developed stormwater volumes for the new park design. Coordination with the Infiltration design team is included.
• Architectural and related structural services provided for enhancements of existing buildings are limited to internal spatial reconfigurations only. It is assumed that no building lateral force systems will be substantially affected by architectural renovations and therefore require additional structural engineering. • It will be the responsibility of the Owner, and/or their Contractor, to obtain utility designs prior to construction. Construction of utility company improvements must be obtained directly from the serving utility company for their construction documents, specifications, drawings, details and notes.
• All improvements are assumed to be on City property with right-of- way improvements limited to the park adjacent conditions along Dalbey Drive and Newhall Avenue (i.e. sidewalk, curb and/or gutter along park edges.) No work on adjacent parcels (Hart High
COST PROPOSAL
PCLD Newhall Park Infiltration Project Cost Proposal | iii School, School District properties, private residential properties). • Traffic Control Plans are excluded.
• Environmental or Biological Studies are excluded.
• Hazardous material evaluation and removal is excluded. • Sustainability certification is limited to the Institute for Sustainable Infrastructure (ISI) verification (Envision).
• Additional Meetings, Agency presentations and Public Meetings separate from those listed in the Workplan will be billed at the regular office rates.
• Plan check and permit fees shall be paid by the City. • Utility mapping shall be based on the best available data and investigation tools. However, due to inherent limitations in utility records and field detection technologies, utility information provided shall be considered approximate and for design reference only. Final utility locations shall be verified by the contractor in the field during construction.
• Splash Pad/spray ground is assumed to be approximately 2,000 SF, which is larger than average. If increases in size require additional supportive equipment, additional services shall be requested. • Mechanical and Plumbing assumes 3 restroom remodels and drinking fountain replacement. Plumbing and HVAC design beyond the 3 restroom remodels in multi-purpose and boys & girls club can be provided as additional services.
• Civil and structural designs will utilize the previous Geotechnical Investigation recommendations. No new geotechnical
investigates are included.
• Electrical assumes that adequate physical space and electrical capacity exist within existing electrical distribution system to accommodate added loads contemplated in this scope of
work for the existing restrooms, multi-purpose room, etc. Excludes upgrade of existing serving electric utility to accommodate added load to buildings scoped under this project. Assumes new electrical services will be required for sports lighting and EV charging systems added under this project.
• Electrical excludes design within existing buildings for new large/ major equipment or systems replacement (i.e. replacement of HVAC, addition of Audio/Video, replacement of Fire Alarm system, etc.). Assumes that all electrical design for existing buildings shall utilize existing power/lighting/fire alarm/communications infrastructure and will not require upgrade or replacement. • Assumes that both lighted play-fields will be lighted to IES RP-6- 24 (current) “Recreational Level of Play” with LED sources (“Class IV” level of play, which is defined as “limited or no provisions for spectators”).
• The time of performance for the design services prior to project bidding is eighteen months.
• Construction Phase Support is anticipated to span the City stated 180 working days and is based on the understanding that Construction Management services, City Construction Observation and Materials and Site Testing are to be by others and not a part of our team’s contracted services.
Please see the following pages for the itemized tasks and fees based on the assumptions listed above and the PCLD team’s scope of work as defined in Work Statement.
