GOLD COAST SURVEYING, INC.

Consultants overall approach to the on-call Contract
Our Understanding is the City of Vista is seeking qualified professionals with extensive experience in land surveying, engineering surveying and mapping. The services to include but not be limited to the following:
perform document research; review documents prepared by others; conduct field reviews; perform coordinate conversions; boundary surveys, topographic surveys, set control for construction and aerial photogrammetry, assist COV staff with field design changes and construction surveys/staking; pothole and locate existing utilities; review traverse calculations and closure calculations; review plat and legal descriptions; review parcel maps and final maps for technical correctness; coordinate with Country surveyor’s Office, County of San Diego, VISTA Irrigation District, Caltrans, NCTD and other agencies; and prepare hard copy documents for the City of Vista.

Gold Coast Surveying, Inc. (GCSI) views the on-call contract as a partnership requiring immediate responsiveness, technical precision, and disciplined project management. Having served as one of the City’s on-call surveyor’s since 1983, we have developed a deep familiarity with Vista’s specific requirements, survey Horizontal Control & Vertical benchmarks, and procedures, which allows us to initiate task orders with minimal lead time.

Task Order Initiation and Workload Consideration Upon issuance of a Task Order, GCSI’s Project Manager, Nicholas Willess, will immediately evaluate the requested scope against our current staff capacity. As a local firm based in Vista, we maintain the flexibility to mobilize field crews rapidly. If a project requires specialized high-density data or subsurface utility engineering, we have established relationships with sub- consultants like AeroTech Mapping, AIRX, or other additional specialist consultants to ensure all technical needs are met without delaying the schedule.

GCSI manages budgets through a detailed labor breakdown correlated to specific project phases. Our approach to cost containment is evidenced by our recent performance on the Wave Water Park (CIP 8398), which was completed significantly under the original cost estimate ($10,460 vs. $16,800).

We maintain project documentation in a format ready for immediate integration into the Autocad Civil 3d dwg database & the City’s GIS Archive system, providing regular status reports with monthly invoices to ensure the City’s Project Manager has full visibility into project progress.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) Program, in accordance with RFQ Section 4, GCSI maintains a rigorous QA/QC program for all deliverables. Our process ensures that all survey documents and calculations are independently checked, corrected, and back-checked before submittal.

Field Data: Under the direct supervision of Senior Land Surveyors Nicholas Willess implements QA/QC procedures during field-to-finish processing to verify data integrity.

Office Review: Senior Surveyors Dale Davis, PLS, or Sean Englert, PLS, perform a final technical review of all maps, legal descriptions, and plats to ensure they are grammatically correct and technically accurate before they are stamped and dated.

Technical Execution and City Standards
We utilize the City’s established horizontal and vertical control network (CCS83/NGVD29 per ROS 14023) to ensure consistency across all Capital Improvement Projects. Our deliverables are computer-drafted in AutoCAD Civil 3D and can be provided in GIS (ArcView) format if required.

PROJECT REFERENCES

1. WAVE WATER PARK – AERIAL, TERRESTIAL SCAN & HAND TOPOGRAPHIC MAP (CIP 8398) This example meets the City’s request for a non-aerial topographic map example, This Survey Deliverable is a Hybrid of Hand topography, Terrestrial Scanning & Traditional Aerial Mapping.

2. WEST VISTA WAY PEDESTRIAN IMPROVEMENT PROJECT (CIP 8340 & 8379) This example meets the City’s request for a survey cut sheet for curb staking.

3. CALTRANS ROW SR78 & SYCAMORE AVE. – ROS 26128
This example meets the City’s request for a Record of Survey map.

1. WAVE WATER PARK – AERIAL, TERRESTIAL SCAN & HAND TOPOGRAPHIC MAP (CIP 8398) PROJECT For: City of Vista
This project will consist of 2 (two) Phases the second
phase being construction tentatively scheduled to start late 2026:

PHASE 1 – Engineering Survey, This phase consisted of
meeting with city staff. Researching record maps & plans in the area. Establishing Project control for Aerial, Terrestrial Scanning & Conventional topo & construction tied to the CCS83 (COV ROS 14023). Searching and locating
monuments in the area to control the Record boundary
and/or that may be disturbed by construction. Field locating topographic features critical to the Concrete Pool Deck replacement & Deck Drain replacement design consisting of shots on top of curb, flow line, edge gutter, walls, utilities, street lights, water, sanitary sewer, storm drain, fence lines, trees etc. This information was provided to the aerial
subconsultant AeroTech Mapping along with the ground
control. AeroTech flew the site and scribed the aerial
topographic map. GCSI QaQc’ed the aerial topographic map and drafted the boundary of the parcel we had previously established on Parcel Map No. 18816 prepared for the City in 2002. GCSI then processed the Trimble SX12 collected Terrestrial Scanning Data in Trimble Business Center. After the point cloud was classified in TBC GCSI exported the point cloud of the concrete pool deck and brought it into AutoCAD Civil3D. Once the point cloud was in Civil 3d, GCSI hand drafted the 3d planimetric line work for the surface of the pool deck and the ground grades adjacent the pool deck. During the post processing GCSI reduced the hand measured field data of the pool deck drains matching the numbers of the deck drains to the numbered pictures collected during the field survey. Once the full details of the survey were drafted the topography and project reports were further reviewed by the Senior Land Surveyor for the project Dale A. Davis for quality assurance before the project was published to the City of Vista via digital file transfer link. see section 5 Examples of work: EXAMPLE 1 – Hybrid Topographic Map Start date:11/2025 - Completed on 01/2026 - COST ESTIMATE: $16,800.00 ~ TOTAL COST: $10,460.00

2. WEST VISTA WAY PEDESTRIAN IMPROVEMENT PROJECT (CIP 8340 & 8379) GCSI was notified by the City project Engineer & Project manager of the Notice to proceed and the pre- construction meeting schedule. CGSI obtained the record dwg base files from the City engineer, and began the initial review of the survey control for the project and overall constructability status of the plans. GCSI then proceeded with a site visit Field Reconnaissance to verify the survey control and Survey Monuments to be perpetuated thru construction. Once the control was verified GCSI began calculating the line and grade of the Top of Curb, Flowline, Lip of Gutter, Back of Walk of the (4) Pedestrian Ramps, Adjacent Sidewalks, (1) Driveway and (1) Bus Stop. GCSI worked with the City Engineer to coordinate the fulfillment of the Staking requests to the contractor then set the construction stakes. GCSI then processed the field data preparing both the Cut/Fill Grade Sheets and Plats that were then further reviewed by the Senior Land Surveyor for the project Dale A. Davis for quality assurance before the grade sheets were published to the City Engineer of Record & then to the Contractor for use setting the concrete forms. Upon completion of the construction GCSI completed the Monument Perpetuation filing two Corner records with the County Surveyor. see section 5 Examples of work: Example 2 – A Survey cut sheet for curb staking Start date:07/2025 - Completed on 05/2026 - COST ESTIMATE: $24,184.00 ~ TOTAL COST: $19,895.50

3. CALTRANS ROW SR78 & SYCAMORE AVE. – ROS 26128 (CIP 8225) PROJECT For: City of Vista
This project developed in the discovery process of the proposed Right of Way relinquishment from Caltrans to the City of Vista as a part of the cooperative agreement 11-0479, Joint Powers Agreement 11-0524 & Right of Way Services Agreement 11-0496 between City of Vista and Caltrans.

Initially the city contacted GCSI for platting of survey adjusted GIS Imagery & plotting of the Record Boundary of the Over Pass & Under Pass along the SR78 corridor this included the Sycamore Ave Overpass. Once the GIS grade map was prepared by GCSI, The City Right of way Agent & GCSI Coordinated with Caltrans to work out the details of the proposed relinquishment of the key areas shown on ROS 26128, GCSI supported The City in these meetings. Once the Scope details were defined thus began the process by GCSI to Field survey the entire Right of Way to ensure that the Survey Monuments Set by Caltrans and other Surveyors of Record truly defined the record descriptions of those areas. This required extensive work to coordinate with adjacent home owners and property management companies to access these areas for the location of the record monuments and the improvements along the right of way. Once the field survey was conducted the analysis of the Right of Way began together with preparation of the Caltrans appraisal maps drafted in the format specified by Caltrans. GCSI reviewed the Record Maps, Record Plans, Caltrans LO Maps, Preliminary title reports, record documents, coordinating with both the City R.O.W Agent City Engineer and Caltrans. GCSI coordinated with Caltrans for clarification to the Right of Way, then GCSI completed the preliminary Draft of the Record of Survey and submitted to the City Engineer for Comments & Caltrans for comments. Upon approval from the City and Caltrans GCSI set the Survey Monuments and recorded the Record of Survey with the County Surveyor.
see section 5 Examples of work: Example 3 – Record of Survey Start date: 09/2018 - Completed on 01/2026 - COST ESTIMATE: $22,000.00 ~ TOTAL COST: $21,997.38

AIRX Utility Surveyors Inc. - AIRX (Utility location Sub-Consultant) Geophysical surveys & “soft Dig” potholing
About AirX Utility Surveyors, Inc.

AirX is a licensed, woman-owned company with decades of experience in the Subsurface Utility Engineering industry. We are one of the first potholing companies in California, and are proud to offer accurate and custom solutions to meet our client’s needs.

Our Story
AirX Utility Surveyors was founded in 1999 as a subset
of a small, local engineering firm. In 2003, Mr. Ivan Fox, PE., and his partners Gordon McElroy, PLS., and Janet
McElroy Incorporated AirX making it a separate entity.

Although Subsurface Utility Engineering “SUE” services
were well known on the East Coast, this technology was
relatively new to the West Coast and helped
revolutionize construction in California.

As a pioneer in the industry, AirX has proudly provided SUE services in California for over 23 years — including utility locating, potholing, CCTV inspections, street repairs and traffic control. We combine several strategies to provide accurate depictions of the subsurface to eliminate unknown factors and ensure project success. The presidency of AirX passed to Gail McMorran over 12 years ago, and she became the leading force in AirX’s growth. Her background in heavy equipment, civil construction, and accounting made her the perfect fit to lead the company. Under her leadership AirX completed 10,000+ successful projects.

Over this time AirX developed solid relationships with
prime contractors, engineering firms, municipalities,
cities, counties, airports, and water districts throughout California – which, in turn, helped us to give our clients unmatched service through our experience. Gail retired
in 2023 and passed the torch to Jenn Harris who now
commands the company. Under her leadership AirX is
poised to achieve even greater heights in the coming
years.
