In preparation for the construction phase, staff requests City Council approval to enter into a Professional Services Agreement with Ardurra to provide construction management services and approval of Amendment No. Two with Dokken Engineering for construction support services. RECOMMENDATION: a) Determine this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because this action will not result in a physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly; b) Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Ardurra of Newport Beach, California, for the Superior Avenue Pedestrian/Bicycle Bridge and Parking Lot project at a not -to -exceed price of $1,250,146, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Agreement; and c) Approve Amendment No. Two to Professional Services Agreement with Dokken Engineering of San Diego, California, for the Superior Avenue Pedestrian/Bicycle Bridge and Parking Lot project to increase the total not -to -exceed amount by $125,116 for a total not -to -exceed amount of $2,015,006, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Amendment. 10-1 Superior Avenue Pedestrian/Bicycle Bridge and Parking Lot (Project No. 15T09) — Approval of Professional Services Agreement with Ardurra (Contract No. 8020-6) and Amendment No. Two with Dokken Engineering (Contract No. 8020-5) March 22, 2022 Page 2 DISCUSSION: The Superior Avenue Pedestrian/Bicycle Bridge and Parking Lot project is located at the intersection of West Coast Highway and Superior Avenue and involves constructing a new pedestrian and bicycle bridge across Superior Avenue. This project also involves constructing a new, larger parking lot to replace the existing smaller parking lot. The proposed bridge will connect Sunset Ridge Park with the new parking lot and will improve pedestrian access and safety. The proposed improvements are shown on the location map (Attachment A). On November 19, 2019, the City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with Dokken Engineering to prepare final construction plans and specifications for this project. Dokken Engineering is nearing completion with the construction documents. Staff is currently coordinating with the California Coastal Commission regarding the special conditions of the Coastal Development Permit (CDP). Upon issuance of the CDP, staff will be ready to advertise this project and start construction shortly after. Staff anticipates construction will begin this coming summer. In preparation of the construction phase, staff recently issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for construction management services and received a total of eight proposals. The proposals were reviewed by a three-person technical panel. The scoring for the proposals is as follows: PROPOSER TOTAL SCORE (out of 300) OVERALL RANK Ardurra 271 1 Berg & Associates, Inc. 265 2 Biggs Cardosa Associates, Inc. 262 3 NV5 252 4 EXP U.S. Services, Inc. 245 5 FCG Consultants 228 6 Ardurra demonstrated that it has the expertise and experience needed to complete the scope of work identified in the RFP. In addition, Ardurra has successfully completed similar projects for other local agencies. Therefore, staff recommends approval of a Professional Services Agreement with Ardurra to provide construction management services for the Superior Avenue Pedestrian/Bicycle Bridge and Parking Lot project. 10-2 Superior Avenue Pedestrian/Bicycle Bridge and Parking Lot (Project No. 15T09) — Approval of Professional Services Agreement with Ardurra (Contract No. 8020-6) and Amendment No. Two with Dokken Engineering (Contract No. 8020-5) March 22, 2022 Page 3 The scope of work includes providing technical and administrative construction management and engineering services; coordinating and overseeing all construction activities; performing all duties of a Resident Engineer and Assistant Resident Engineer including inspection, material testing, compliance with federal labor and Disadvantage Business Enterprise (DBE) requirements; preparing daily and weekly inspection reports; maintaining project records and documentation in accordance with state and federal requirements; and providing community outreach. In addition to Ardurra's construction management services, staff recommends approving Amendment No. Two to the Professional Services Agreement with Dokken Engineering. The scope of work associated with this amendment includes preparation of a legal description and plat map to decertify a portion of the existing Caltrans scenic easement; updating the traffic signal plans to address Caltrans' comments; updating the landscape and irrigation plans to address Coastal Commission comments; additional geotechnical evaluation; updating construction drawings to incorporate electrical vehicle charging stations; and additional engineering support during construction. FISCAL IMPACT: The adopted budget includes sufficient funding for these services. The project (CIP account 56201-980000-15T09) is included in the City's Facilities Financing Plan (FFP) with a total budget of $9.2 million for design and construction. Funding sources include the General Fund, developer agreement contributions and OCTA Bicycle Corridor Improvement Program funds. Ardurra's proposed not -to -exceed fee is $1,250,146 and the additional costs for Dokken Engineering is $125,116, for a total not -to -exceed amount of $2,015,006. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly. NOTICING: The agenda item has been noticed according to the Brown Act (72 hours in advance of the meeting at which the City Council considers the item).

A 4 -week look -ahead will be required from the Contractor, updated weekly, and presented at the weekly construction progress meetings_ This tool will keep the entire team looking one month ahead of the project and will facilitate proactive handling of project activities and issues. If necessary, Ardurra will negotiate time extensions due to change orders or other delays. SWPPP Ardurra CM and inspection staff will enforce all provisions of the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan and/or other requisite requirements set forth in the specifications. Ardurra CM staff is well -versed in SWPPP monitoring through provision of dedicated services for oversight of developers and contractors on behalf of several public agencies. At a minimum, SWPPP requirements will be monitored and a specific SWPPP checklist will be compiled. Any deficiencies noted will be addressed with the Contractor for immediate remedy. Upon a weather report of expecting rain, a site walk will be conducted to ensure that SWPPP measures are in place and well maintained. Additionally, if desired by the City, the Ardurra team can be assigned as the data submitter forthe project to implement the 1101 application, uploading of various reports, and processing of the NOT on the SMART website. Change Management Ardurra will establish, implement, and coordinate systems for consideration, negotiation, processing, and implementation of change orders. Each issue, which is identified as a potential change to the design, scope, cost, or contract time will generate a uniquely numbered potential change order (PCO). The RE/CM will determine whether a change notice should be considered. The plans and specifications will be reviewed against the change notice. If the issue does not appear to be included in the plans or specifications, the RE/CM will negotiate the scope and cost for the most efficient, cost and quality appropriate solution with the Contractor and City. Any credits for work deleted because of the change will be required at this time as well. The RE/CM will maintain a trend log, listing potential changes as identified, either formally or informally. This trend log shall be used such that potential change items are not overlooked or deferred until the end of thejob. Ardurra will prepare independent cost estimates as required for contract change orders. Upon approval by the City, the RE/CM will prepare, log, and process change orders for full execution and administertheir implementation. Once fully executed, the CM team will expedite and review the timely completion of the work and coordinate inclusion of the change order in the appropriate payment application. Claims Avoidance Ardurra will assist the City with claims filed by the Contractor in accordance with the guidelines set forth by the general specifications and the standard specifications. Ardurra is well -versed at negotiating and resolving claims amicably between contractors and public agencies. Should a claim require work in addition to Ardurra's contract, Ardurra will be available on a time -and -materials basis if desired by the City, including assistance with processing required forms and coordinating with the DLAE, and processing additional funding if applicable. The provision of any legal advice or services is specifically excluded. Daily Extra Work Reports The Ardurra CM and inspection team will verify and sign Contractor's daily extra work reports documenting force account (time and materials) work. Ardurra will monitor that only appropriate worker classifications necessary for approved time and 12 1 page ARDURRf1 10-30 EXHIBIT "A" City of Newport Beach CM/Engineering Services for SCOPE OF SERVICES Superior Avenue Pedestrian/Bicycle Bridge and Parking Lot materials work is included on extra work reports. Any inappropriate workforce and/or equipment charges will be promptly rejected and removed from extra work reports. Progress Payment Processing A cost control system, based on the Contractor's schedule of values, approved change orders and the contract amount shall be developed and implemented to monitor progress costs. Monthly cost reports will be submitted to the City as a component of the monthly progress report. Ardurra will establish quantity measurement forms and methods for each bid item. The resident engineer will coordinate with the City's inspector and Ardurra's alternate inspectors to provide detailed quantity measurements for work as it is installed. Quantity measurements will include the specific location placed, field measurement and quantity calculation in accordance with the specified measurement and payment provision for each bid item, and any backup documentation such as certificate of compliance, materials delivery ticket, as appropriate for the item measured. The Contractor's representative will be required to acknowledge daily quantities measured, to eliminate the need for post -installation revisits of bid item quantities. All quantities will be properly documented on inspector daily reports and tied to a quantity measurement report that will be certified by the inspector, resident engineer, and City representative. The Ardurra CM and inspection team will review the payment applications submitted by the Contractor and determine whether the amount requested reflects the progress of the Contractor's work. Appropriate adjustments to each payment application will be required by the Contractor. When the payment application is acceptable and all backup documentation is verified ((ertified payrolls, lien releases), Ardurra will prepare and forward to the City a progress payment report. The report shall state the total contract price, payments to date, current payment requested, retainage and actual amounts owed for the current period. The Ardurra team is experienced with evaluating complex pay applications. It is critical to the Citys best interest that payment application review be performed accurately and prudently to maintain the prime and subcontractor incentives to perform on the projects. Cashflow Management (Preliminary Notices, Releases and Stop Notices) Ardurra recognizes that the diligent monitoring and tracking of preliminary notices, conditional and unconditional releases is an important component of public construction management, enables the team to stay abreast of the construction contract cash flow, and provides for excellent documentation of prompt payment as required by federal funding.

STEP 4 INVESTIGATE We have established investigative tools and processei to effectively combat prevailing wage theft while educating the public and law-abiding conlractocs through procedures of review to resolve discrepant, delinquent, or inadequateI'payrolls, STEP 5 REVIEW The labor compliance team provides monthly site interviews with contractor's personnel at the project site to crass -reference against the collected certified payrolls and labor compliance documents. Ardurra's labor compliance program is a 5 -step process to capture, monitor, collect, investigate, and review through LCPTracker, which is a certified payroll reporting software. Our process of actively monitoring prevailing wage requirements, allows for real-time monitoring of the required documents, DAS140, DAS142, fringe benefit statements, monthly union status, CAC -2 Training Fund Contributions, eCPRs, and other requirements of the awarding body. The Ardurra team will work proactively and cooperatively with the Contractor to monitor and enforce the City's and funding agencies' requirements for labor compliance, as follows: • Verify Contractor and subcontractor eligibility through the State Contractor's Licensing Board, DIR contractor registration, and state debarred list. • Serve as the primary contact person for labor standards issues related to state and federal labor codes. The consultant shall attend the preconstruction conference to provide the Contractor and subcontractor(s) with contractor labor compliance handouts and to review the applicable labor standards requirements as mandated by State of California labor compliance requirements. • Inform Contractors of the prevailing wages requirements. All services performed under the agreement will be subject to payment of the applicable prevailing wage for personnel performing the work. The submittal of certified payroll records will be required as work is performed or when they are needed to verify compliance with state/federal labor codes. Certified payroll submittals will he available for review by the City and directly submitted to the DIR. • Prior to each Contractor's mobilization to the project site, Ardurra's labor compliance specialist will review the submitted proposed labortrades/crafts to be utilized by prime contractors and subcontractors and address any appropriate adjustments for compliance with the state and/or federal prevailing wage determination for direct wages and fringe benefits. • We utilize LCPTracker software for collection and weekly review of Certified Payrolls (CPRS). Certified payroll submittals will be available to the City and submitted directly to the DIR through the LCPTracker XML Export feature. • Review and collect labor compliance support documents DAS140, DAS142, Fringe Benefit Statements, DIR eCPR Receipts, CAC -2, monthly trustee reports, apprentice certifications, and other required documents. • Prepare and submit labor standards violations and enforcement reports documenting delinquencies, violations, and underpayments, as needed.

DBE Compliance The Ardurra team will document that each Contractor's DBE commitment is utilized appropriately, as follows: • Listed DBE firm's certificate information, subcontracted work items and amounts, and DBE certificate expiration dates will be logged at the outset of the project and reviewed with the project team. • The Ardurra inspector daily reports will indicate when DBE subcontractors are utilized. • The Ardurra inspector will monitor that the Contractor does not self -perform or utilize a substitute subcontractor for committed QBE subcontractor work unless the proper subcontractor substitution process has been followed and approved by the City. • Required periodic reports documenting DBE utilization and payment will be compared to inspector daily reports and certified payrolls to document actual and appropriate utilization. Plans, Specifications, and As-Builts Ardurra will periodically review the Contractor's as -built updates on the approved job plan set, identify missing items, and require the Contractor to keep as -built records up-to-date throughout the project. Ardurra CM staff keeps its own set of as -built plans that will note the location of subsurface utilities encountered and/or installed, identify where any design or field changes were required (utilizing the corresponding RFI and/or change order numbers), and note the location of critical building components that are covered by finish work. At the end of the project, the final as -built plans are submitted to the City. Closeout Documents Ardurra staff will enforce the provisions of the specifications to require and expedite the Contractor to submit well -coordinated operations and maintenance manuals, warranties and guarantees, bonds, extra stock and/or other items required by the contract documents such that a timely closeout of the project is implemented. Ardurra will perform closeout duties, including final organization of project files, and submit to the City for final approval and assist with the filing of the Notice of Completion and Release of Retention.

This amendment also includes additional funding for the construction support task. TASK 12 ADDITIONAL CALTRANS TASKS Task 12.1 Scenic Easement Exhibits and Plat and Legal The proposed pedestrian bridge will cross over Superior Avenue to connect the proposed parking lot with Sunset Ridge Park. The Sunset Ridge Park property is own by the City of Newport Beach (City); however, Caltrans has an existing structures and scenic view easement over the property. Caltrans determined that to allow a bridge structure within the existing easement deed, the restrictions would need to be removed around the footprint of the proposed bridge structure. Dokken Engineering (Dokken), on behalf of the City, coordinated directly with Caltrans for the deed restrictions removal process. Dokken prepared the Scenic Easement Exhibit and submitted to the city. Upon approval of the easement limits by Caltrans, Dokken directed Guida Surveying, Inc. (Guida) to prepare the Scenic Easement Plat and Legal. The plat and legal was included with the Appraisal Report (prepared by Netzer and Associates) that was required by Caltrans to approve the deed restrictions removal. Per Caltrans request, Guida also prepared the plat and legal closure check report. Additionally, Dokken also prepared the Caltrans Right of Way Map Exhibit. Per Caltrans request, Dokken provided the PAC -3 reports to verify that the plat and legal documents were both ADA compliant. Task Deliverable(si: Scenic Easement Exhibit, Scenic Easement Plat and Legal. Plat and Legal Closure Check Report, Caltrans Right of Way Map Exhibit, PAC -3 Reports Task 12.2 Update Project Plans per Caltrans WCH Construction Project Dokken received additional comments from Caltrans related to the encroachment permit approval process, due to a concurrent Caltrans construction project at the intersection of Superior Avenue and along WCH. Dokken also updated the traffic signal plan sheets per a traffic signal project recently completed by Caltrans. Task Deliverable(s): Updated Project Plans TASK 13 ADDITIONAL COASTAL COMMISSION TASKS Task 13.1 Update Project Plans, Exhibits and Coordination. Per meetings with the city, an amendment to the Sunset Ridge Park Coastal Development Permit (CDP) will be required for the proposed pedestrian bridge abutment. Dokken supported the city with exhibits through this process. Dokken updated pertinent project plan sheets per Coastal Commission comments. These comments were related to the planting mitigation site locations, existing wetland locations, permanent and temporary impacts to plantings areas, stage construction areas and pedestrian routes during construction. Dokken also assisted the City with preparation of exhibits needed for the CDP approval process. Dokken prepared an Access Detour Plan Exhibit, Construction Staging Pian Exhibit, Wetland Exhibits, and two Bridge Impact Exhibits. Dokken also updated these exhibits as needed per the Coastal Commission Comments, Task Deliverable(s): Coastal Commission Pert -nit Exhibits and Updated Project Plans �£WPpRT pk � C,�L�Rx�D SUPERIOR AVENUE PEDESTRIAN/BICYCLE BRIDGE AND PARKING LOT TASK 14 - GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING Task 14.1 Prepare Settlement Mitigation Memorandum. Up to 18 feet of embankment fill will be placed to construct the proposed Superior Avenue parking lot. The width of the embankment varies between 40 and 165 feet. Additionally, the east side of the parking lot area will require up to 24 feet of cut. Per Earth Mechanic Inc. (EMI) Geotechnical Report that was prepared for this project, the maximum calculated settlement due to the embankment will be approximately 4.5 inches. The settlement magnitude was unexpected, and Dokken prepared a memorandum to the city to summarize the settlement mitigation options EMI and Dokken evaluated to minimize the overall settlement for this project. The memorandum was intended to aid the city during the decision-making process of how to implement these mitigation options for this project. Task Deliverable(s): Settlement Mitigation Memorandum Task 14.2 Geotechnical Peer Review Dokken Engineering in concurrence with the City of Newport Beach directed Geocon West Inc (Geocon) to complete a peer review of the Geotechnical Report prepared for this project by EMI. The scope of the peer review was limited to the magnitude and duration of the anticipated settlement associated with the placement of additional soil to achieve the proposed finish grades for the project. As part of the peer review EMI performed supplemental borings, supplemental site investigations, laboratory testing, and engineering analysis. The peer review through Geocon concurred with the 4.5 inches of settlement that was reported by EMI. Task Deliveroble(s): Geotechnicol Peer Review Letter TASK 15 ELECTRICAL VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS The Superior Avenue Project is proposing a new parking lot at the current location of the existing Superior Avenue parking lot. The proposed parking lot will provide a total of 121 standard stalls and 8 handicap stalls. After the 90% design was submitted, the city informed Dokken Engineering an independent contractor (EVGO) was hired to design and install the electrical vehicles charging stations and equipment.
