During that time, we have accumulated a listing of <br />over 1100 different clients, both public and private, that includes almost all the Cities in Orange County, <br />including the City of Santa Ana.

In addition with our office having been located in Santa <br />Ana for the last 25 years, as well as my own previous position as City Traffic Engineer for the City of <br />Santa Ana (1972 to 1978), we are quite familiar with the City and its traffic patterns. In addition, we have <br />prepared over 5,000 Traffic Impact Assessments and understand the CEQA process quite well as it relates <br />to traffic and transportation engineering. <br />We have attached our standard hourly rates and our firm routinely provides its clients with professional <br />liability and errors and omissions insurance with limits of $1,000,000/$2,000,000 which exceeds the <br />City's <br />requirements. <br />08SantaAnaSOQ.doc <br />2223 Wellington Avenue, Suite 300 • Santa Ana, California 92701 -3161 <br />Tel: (714) 667 -0496 Fax: (714) 667 -7952 <br />www.austinfoust.com <br />
