The services being considered for contract are the following "Specialty Areas": Specialty Areas Contract Amount (per thousand) (Al) Project Management Services $350K (A2) Property Appraisal Services $300K (A3) Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment Appraisal Services $350K (A4) Business Goodwill Appraisal Services $350K (A5) Acquisition, Relocation, and Property Management Services $500K (A6) Environmental Services $350K (A7) Demolition Services $750K (A8) Surveying and Mapping Services $150K From the proposals received, it is the City's goal to select one firm to perform the Project Management and Oversight Services and one to two firms for the other disciplines listed above. The City will enter into separate agreements (the "Agreement") with each of these firms. Work will be assigned by Contract Task Orders. As tasks are identified, they will be distributed among these firms based upon their ability to perform the required work within the project schedule and budget constraints. The fee and a detailed scope of work will be outlined when a specific task is assigned to a consultant. The City reserves the right to distribute the work in any manner which will best serve the City's interests. BACKGROUND The City of Santa Ana is planning various road widening and intersection projects. These projects include, but are not limited to: Bristol Street Widening Project; Grand Avenue, First to Fourth; 17th and Bristol Intersection; Bristol Warner Intersection. It is anticipated that the consultant will be responsible for the establishment of right of way requirements, right of way mapping, appraisals, environmental studies, right of way acquisition, relocation, property management, demolition and site clearing, and title transfer to the City. It is also anticipated that the City may have the responsibility to acquire by condemnation any parcels for which negotiations become unsuccessful. It is the City's intent to establish a right of way consultant team for all the Specialty Areas. These Specialty Areas are included in the Scope of Work section of this document. The actual number of consultants to be selected will depend on the availability of qualified firms, evidenced by the proposal process. Page 2 of 48 19H-4
