TITLE: 15th Street and Balboa Boulevard Revitalization — Approval of Professional Services
Agreement with Psomas (CAP 14-0006)
ABSTRACT:
Staff recommends approval of the Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Psomas to finalize the City
Council approved conceptual design and to prepare the construction documents for the 15th Street and
Balboa Boulevard Revitalization Project.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Psomas of Santa Ana, CA for the 15th Street and Balboa
Boulevard Revitalization project at a not -to- exceed price of $276,700.00, and authorize the Mayor and City
Clerk to execute the Agreement.
FUNDING REQUIREMENTS:
Sufficient funding is available in the following accounts for this agreement:
Vendor Account Number Purpose Amount
Psomas 7181- C2002068 Professional Design Services $ 172,200.00
Psomas 7013- C2001013 Professional Design Services $ 104,500.00
Total: $ 276,700.00
DISCUSSION:
15th Street on the Balboa Peninsula provides access to both the Ocean and Bay, making this one of the
more popular coastal access locations in the vicinity. Furthermore, its proximity to the adjacent churches,
elementary school, and the upcoming Marina Park makes it a highly utilized area. Considering its prime
location and its heavy usage by residents and visitors, the street infrastructure is rather aged and stark in
its existing state.
After a qualification based selection process, the City entered into a PSA with the Psomas lead design
team on November 12, 2013 to prepare the 15th Street conceptual design plans to replace street
10 -1
pavement, sidewalks, a traffic signal as well as improve the aesthetic appearance and functionality of the
neighborhood. Two Community Public outreach meetings were conducted to solicit input and determine
what would best fit the community needs. It was further conceptualized that the project creates an
opportunity to extend the recently completed Balboa Boulevard revitalization effort between W. Coast
Highway and 23rd Street. As a result, the Balboa Boulevard segment from 21st Street to 12th Street was
also studied and included for possible enhancement. This segment fronts the future Marina Park, creating a
complementary entrance for this new community amenity. A final conceptual plan was presented to and
approved by City Council at the February 10, 2015 study session. A copy of this approved Concept plan is
attached.
The current 2014/15 Capital Improvement Program budget contains the necessary funds to prepare design
documents for the 15th Street and Balboa Boulevard Revitalization Project. Given Psomas' experience,
planning and design approach, and intimate project knowledge and background obtained with the concept
plan development, staff recommends retaining Psomas (via a project specific agreement), pursuant to
Council Policy F -14, to finalize the conceptual plans and prepare the contract documents for a not -to-
exceed fee of $276,700.00. Staff met with Psomas to finalize the proposed scope of work and negotiate the
level of effort and final fee.
The design will generally focus on street improvements, landscape enhancements, streetlight upgrades,
and traffic signal modernization within the project limits. The scope of Psomas' professional services
includes the following:
• Design Development, which will address any remaining design, landscaping, and material selection
issues noted by City Council, the public and staff;
• Community Outreach, where staff will reach out to the public to ensure the design is consistent with the
approved conceptual design;
• Construction Documents, which includes construction plan details, cost estimate, and specifications; and
• Construction support, where Psomas will respond to construction inquiries, such as shop drawings and
"request for information," and provide construction observation.
The design will take approximately six months, with an anticipated construction mobilization date of early
2016. This schedule would allow project completion prior to Summer 2016.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff recommends the City Council find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
( "CEQA ") pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) and Section 15303 (New Construction or
Conversion of Small Structures) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter
3. The action will lead to the modification and construction of landscape and hardscape improvements
primarily within existing raised medians and parkways in Balboa Boulevard. Additionally, a few new small
raised landscaped median islands will be introduced along 15th Street. The construction of the project is
wholly within existing public rights -of -way and will not require the expansion or acquisition of additional the
rights -of -way. The overall project will result in negligible or no expansion of existing roadways and the
capacity of the existing roadways or number of parking spaces will not be diminished.
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).

of City. Consultant shall have the responsibility for and control over the means of
performing the Work, provided that Consultant is in compliance with the terms of this

immediate right to appeal to the City Manager or designee with respect to such disputed
sums. Consultant shall be entitled to receive interest on any withheld sums at the rate of
return that City earned on its investments during the time period, from the date of

inexperience of Consultant which result in expense to City greater than what would

B. City's Right to Revise Requirements. City reserves the right at any time
during the term of the Agreement to change the amounts and types of
insurance required by giving Consultant sixty (60) calendar days advance
written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial
additional cost to Consultant, City and Consultant may renegotiate
Consultant's compensation.
C. Enforcement of Agreement Provisions. Consultant acknowledges and
agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform
Consultant of non - compliance with any requirement imposes no additional
obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
D. Requirements not Limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features
or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on
coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage
normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given
coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a
given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive,
or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the
Consultant maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the
City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for higher limits maintained
by the Consultant. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the
specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to
the City.
E. Self- insured Retentions. Any self- insured retentions must be declared to
and approved by City. City reserves the right to require that self - insured
retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self -
insurance will not be considered to comply with these requirements unless
approved by City.
F. City Remedies for Non - Compliance. If Consultant or any subconsultant
fails to provide and maintain insurance as required herein, then City shall
have the right but not the obligation, to purchase such insurance, to
terminate this Agreement, or to suspend Consultant's right to proceed until
proper evidence of insurance is provided. Any amounts paid by City shall,
at City's sole option, be deducted from amounts payable to Consultant or
reimbursed by Consultant upon demand.
G. Timely Notice of Claims. Contractor shall give City prompt and timely
notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from
Contractor's performance under this Contract, and that involve or may
involve coverage under any of the required liability policies. City assumes
no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty)
to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to
involve City.
H. Consultant's Insurance. Consultant shall also procure and maintain, at its
own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own
