lop, r City of Santa Ana Proposal for the Bender Ready -Mix Concrete Manufacturing Project Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration Vlll. STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS This proposal shall be valid for a period of 90 days. Progress billings will be forwarded based on payment criteria established by the City. These billings will include the fees earned for the billing period. The City shall make every reasonable effort to review invoices within fifteen (15) working days from the date of receipt of the invoices and notify Consultant in writing of any particular item that is alleged to be incorrect. The fees proposed herein shall apply until September 1, 2010. Due to annual increases in costs associated with inflation, staff wage increases and increases in direct costs, Consultant will increase those portions of the contract fee for which work must still be completed after September 1, 2010, by fifteen percent (15%). Deviations or modifications from the Scope of Work will result in potential re-evaluation of the associated fees. Items not specifically stated in the proposal will be considered an additional work item. All work will be performed at a "Not to Exceed" contract price, which will become the fixed price upon completion of negotiations with the City staff authorized to negotiate and authorize the agreement. The total budget includes all miscellaneous costs for travel/mileage, reproduction, telephone, postal, delivery, reference materials, and incidental expenses. The budget provides a breakdown of our estimated cost of performing the services described in this Scope of Services. Our Scope of Services and its associated cost are based on several key assumptions, including the following: 1. The budget is valid for up to six months from the date of submittal/opening, after which it may be subject to revision. 2. City will develop the mailing list for distribution of the MND and notices. The City will be responsible for newspaper cost of publication of notices, which will be billed directly to the City, so they are not included in the proposed budget. 3. Photocopy costs included in the proposal are for the specified number of copies of deliverables and reasonable incidental and in -team photocopying. If additional copies of deliverables are needed, they can be provided with an amendment to the proposed budget. 4. Review cycles for preliminary documents are presented in the scope of work. Additional review cycles or additional versions of administrative drafts are assumed to not be needed. 5. The proposed work addresses CEQA requirements of the proposed action. Work related to NEPA compliance, Section 404 compliance, or other permitting processes is not included (although these can be added, as needed, with a contract amendment). Work concludes at the acceptance by the City of the final deliverable. 6. The budget is based on completion of work within an agreed upon schedule. If substantial delay occurs, an amendment of the budget would be warranted to accommodate additional JN 00-000300.10P • 28 • August 27, 2009
