EXHIBIT A SCOPE OF SERVICES PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR THE RENOVATION OF MEMORIAL PARK POOL AND THE REHABILITATION OF PLAZA OF THE FOUNTAINS PROJECTS I. INTRODUCTION The City of Santa Ana Public Works Agency desires to enter into an agreement with a qualified consulting engineering firm with a proven track record of completing large pool and fountain renovation projects for the professional engineering services of swimming pool renovation, fountain rehabilitation, and related infrastructure rehabilitation. The major elements of the project are the assessment and analysis of the existing conditions and the subsequent preparation of Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) of the following projects: • Swimming pool renovation at Santa Ana Memorial Park. • Fountain rehabilitation at Plaza of the Fountains in Civic Center. II. PROJECT BACKGROUND Santa Ana Memorial Park Pool (Memorial Pool) was constructed at the corner of Flower Street and Saint Gertrude Place in 1961. It is a heavily used public pool opening seasonally from Memorial Day to Labor Day. The pool is approximately 167 feet in length, 65 feet in width and depths ranging from three (3) to twelve (12) feet. The pool holds approximately 600,000 gallons. Memorial Pool was last renovated in 1994. The annual maintenance costs are rising and several major issues are emerging, such as black algae, leakage, and other problems which are affecting program activities. Plaza of the Fountains is located within Santa Ana Civic Center, at the corner of Santa Ana Boulevard and Flower Street. Civic Center Law Library Fountain (a.k.a. Plaza Fountain No. 3) was built in 1970 in the Plaza of the Fountains due south of Orange County Law Library. Due to deteriorations and maintenance problems, the fountain has ceased operations since 2002. In 2002, Holmes and Narver prepared the rehabilitation plans for Plaza Fountain No. 3 as well as the reflecting pool adjacent to the east side of the Law Library. Funding was only available at that time to implement construction at the reflecting pool. Upon completion, design issues surfaced once operations commenced so the design approach for Plaza Fountain No. 3 shall be reanalyzed and modified accordingly. The previous base design can be used as a reference; however, the Consultant is responsible for updating the plans to reflect current standards and redesigning the pump system for a more effective operating system. III. SCOPE OF WORK Consultant shall be responsible for the preparation and submittal of PS&E through completion with the approval of the City of Santa Ana. The PS&E of the pool renovation and fountain rehabilitation shall be prepared separately for bid and awards purpose. The following is the breakdown of the scope of work for the project. Any additional tasks deemed necessary by the Consultant shall be clearly identified in the proposal. A. Management and Administration Consultant is fully responsible for the overall project management, administration and coordination for the project, including but not limited to the following: 1. Management and Coordination —Consultant shall be the liaison with affected agencies, monitor project progress and maintain project files. Other responsibilities of Consultant include supervising, coordinating, monitoring and reviewing design for conformance with local agencies standards, policies and procedures.
