Cover Letter <br />April 1, 2021 <br />Project Number 21-11149 <br />David Flores <br />City of Santa Ana <br />Community Development Agency (6th Floor) <br />20 Civic Center Plaza, M-26 <br />Santa Ana, California 92701 <br />Subject: Proposal for On-Call Environmental Review Services for the City of Santa Ana’s Housing <br />Division <br />Dear Mr. Flores: <br />Rincon Consultants, Inc. (Rincon) is pleased to submit this proposal to provide the City of Santa Ana’s <br />(City) Housing Division with environmental consulting services. We are enthusiastic about the <br />opportunity to continue working with the City and have assembled a team of highly skilled <br />environmental science and planning professionals who combine extensive technical qualifications and <br />knowledge of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and California Environmental Quality Act <br />(CEQA) with several years of experience working in the region. <br />For over 25 years, Rincon has successfully worked with cities, counties, and special districts in the <br />southern California region and throughout California to provide planning and environmental review <br />expertise. Our local staff has successfully managed various on-call assignments with numerous public <br />agencies including the cities of Fullerton, Los Angeles, South Pasadena, Long Beach, and Los Angeles <br />County’s Community Development Authority. Rincon has worked with the City of Santa since 2000 <br />under several on-call contracts with the Community Development Agency and the Planning and Building <br />Agency. Rincon recently completed the Categorical Exclusion for the Santa Ana Library Renovations <br />Project for the Community Development Agency (Housing Division), and our historic team is continuing <br />to consult for potential impacts to historic resources. We also recently completed an Initial Study- <br />Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Westview Housing Project for the Planning and Building Agency <br />(Planning Division). Through these projects and over 20 other projects completed under our on-call <br />contracts since 2015, we have developed unique insight with the range of environmental and <br />socioeconomic issues present in the City. <br />The following assets make us well-suited to this important on-call services contract: <br /> Extensive experience providing on-call CEQA consulting services to cities and counties throughout <br />the southern California region and statewide, <br /> Proven project management expertise, <br /> Adherence to successful internal quality assurance programs, <br /> Staff who are experts in key technical issues, <br />EXHIBIT 1
