Santa Ana Safe Mobility Plan I Revised Scope of Work City of Santa Ana, CA funding to the City. Finally, should the recommendations impact freeway ramp intersections or other Caltrans facilities, Caltrans approvals would likely be necessary as well. Our team is aware of these processes and can help guide the City of Santa Ana on the associated impacts. Early in the process, our team will perform a consistency review of relevant guidelines and policies to identify potential obstacles or challenges to implement certain countermeasures. We will review all proposed countermeasures for consistency with local, regional, and state policies, regulations, and guidelines. We will highlight inconsistencies (we will not discard any potential countermeasure based on this factor alone, but call it out for consideration in project prioritization), and provide recommendations that could allow implementation. Recommendations may include but are not limited to engineering surveys for speed limit reductions, reclassification of streets, or obtaining approval for pilot /study projects. Importantly, the Nelson \Nygaard team is providing guidance and leadership in many aspects of CEQA reform, and is working closely with the California State Office of Planning and Research to develop meaningful responses to the new policies and shifting priorities. As such, our team is well positioned to provide support for environmental review of the plan, should a need be determined. Deliverables: Technical memorandum reviewing consistency of proposed countermeasures with local, region, and state policies, regulations, and guidelines. �uirlpttoris and or' arxc)usions to thesegpe oftaordc We. suggest presenting preliminary findings of an initial consistency review as an early confirmation during TAC meeting number z (see Task r), The Nelson \Nygaard team will prepare cost estimates for street improvement options at the street segment or intersection level. The cost estimates will use local unit costs to provide a planning level understanding of the cost implications of each improvement to allow for a cost constrained plan that the City to include cost as a measure of effectiveness. The cost information developed will be included in the prioritization system as an input to the ultimate ranking of the countermeasures. Deliverables: Planning level cost estimates for projects identified in Task 6.1 Preliminary engineering cost opinions for the 5 project cut sheets Assumplions and/ or exclusions to the scone of work No special concerns. To inform this task, we will develop a technical memorandum early in the project that proposes a set of preliminary project prioritization criteria based on our experience conducting bicycle and pedestrian plans in other cities as well as criteria used in other active transportation safety plans. The draft criteria can be discussed with the TAC during the first meeting early in the planning process. As discussed in Task 5, active transportation prioritization processes typically include measures reflective of demand, network deficiency and feasibility. The criteria that will be used to rank projects along street segments or intersections will be informed by the data collection, Wlson Nygaard Consulting Associates, Inc. 113 25F -22
