<br />drain Improvements capable of matching existing
<br />drainage characteristics will be necessary.
<br />Discharging Into Santiago Creek through a
<br />proposed storm drain will only be considered if all
<br />other drainage options are not feasible.
<br />Once the design options have been vatted by
<br />the Project Team, Tetra Tech will document all
<br />applicable regulatory requirements, stakeholder
<br />needs, project opportunities and constraints to be
<br />used as a Basis of Design. The Basis of Design
<br />will be the guide to refine the Concept Design to
<br />30% level for review and approval. At this time we
<br />will provide a Technical Memo documenting the
<br />anticipated permits needed for the project.
<br />We will perform Value Engineering, looking at
<br />all project factors, including community impacts,
<br />pedestrian and bicycle detours, aesthetics,
<br />environmental clearances, right-of-way, permitting
<br />Issues, utilitles, access and clearances, value,
<br />security, safety, constructability, maintenance,
<br />durability, life cycle costs, lead times, availability
<br />and construction related issues.
<br />The Tetra Tech Team understands fundamental
<br />project issues and functions, leading to higher
<br />quality value engineering recommendations early
<br />in the design stage that are more useful to the
<br />owner. With Tetra Tech's design leadership and
<br />engagement of the Project Team in the process,
<br />the community will benefit from a beautiful, safe,
<br />user friendly, environmentally friendly, and low
<br />maintenance connectivity enhancement
<br />.PEDESTRIAN PATH FINAL DESIGN
<br />Upon City Approval of the Concept Plan, our highly
<br />qualified Team will commence the final design
<br />to achieve 90% submittal completion level. To
<br />accomplish this, we will provide monthly progress
<br />prints and reports to keep the City Project Manager
<br />engaged and informed. In addition, we propose
<br />two (2) over -the shoulder reviews to obtain input
<br />and comments from the City. In this way, the 90%
<br />submittal will be complete to the City's satisfaction,
<br />with minimal comments expected.
<br />12 DESIGN SERVICES RFP NO.: 18-042
<br />To facilitate the PS&E development, our qualified
<br />Team includes Registered Engineers who
<br />are familiar with civil infrastructure and active
<br />transportation Capital Improvement Projects,
<br />Including ATP Grant Requirements, Caltrans
<br />Highway Design Manual Chapter 1000 for Bikeway
<br />Facilities, and the NACTO Design Guidelines
<br />for Bikeways. The development of PS&E for the
<br />pedestrian facility will consider the connections and
<br />access points, and these additional relevant design
<br />standards:
<br />Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices
<br />(MUTCD), part 9 and California Supplement

<br />required and confirmed by the consultant
<br />The 90% submittal will include final plans,
<br />specifications, and estimates (PS&E), Prior
<br />to submittal to the City, we will perform value
<br />engineering in collaboration with the City Project
<br />Manager. We will also perform 1) a thorough
<br />Interdisciplinary Review, and 2) a (quality Control
<br />check, checking against the Basis of Design and
<br />the applicable codes and requirements.
<br />DELIVERING A DESIGN WITHIN
<br />BUDGET
<br />Perhaps most importantly, the Tetra Tech team
<br />Is committed to delivering a project that not only
