RECOMMENDATIONS: 1) Approve an Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with BonTerra Consulting of Costa Mesa, California, for additional work required for preparation of a Supplemental Environmental Impact Report for an additional amount not to exceed $37,150; and 2) Authorize City Manager to sign Agreements. DISCUSSION: Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian proposes to revise the Master Plan for the hospital campus that was approved in 1992. The application for revision of the Hoag Hospital Master Plan includes requests for approval of an Amendment to the General Plan Land Use Element (Hoag Hospital Area), a Planned Community Development Plan Amendment, and amendment of the Development Agreement. Environmental Impact Report Preparation The Environmental Impact Report (EIR) prepared in 1992 for the existing Hoag Master Plan required updating in conjunction with revision of the Master Plan. On March 8, 2005, the City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with BonTerra Consulting of Costa Mesa in the amount of $280,360 for preparation of a Supplemental EIR for the revised Master Plan. The contract is due to expire on May 15, 2006. BonTerra Consulting, City staff, and Hoag Hospital representatives subsequently agreed that additional analysis of potential noise impacts and a Health Risk Assessment Hoag Hospital EIR January 24, 2006 Page 2 associated with operation of additional generators were required. On August 9, 2005, City Council approved an Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement for an additional $74,181. Since approval of the Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement, Hoag Hospital has requested that an alternative to the project originally proposed also be analyzed in the Supplemental EIR. A Scope of Work for the additional tasks necessary for this alternative is included in the "Second Amendment to Professional Services Agreement' (Attached). Because of previous delays and the additional tasks, the Second Amendment includes an extension of the contract expiration date to August 31, 2006. The additional tasks and associated costs are summarized as follows: Task 1 Traffic Modeling Support Services $ 8,400 Task Traffic Analysis 11,000 Task 3 Air Quality and Noise Analysis 2,490 Task 4 Alternatives Analysis 5,600 Task 5 Management 9,620 Amendment Total $37,150 Staff has reviewed the Scope of Work for additional tasks needed for evaluation of the project alternative in the Supplemental EIR and believes it is adequate to meet or exceed the minimum requirements set forth by the California Environmental Quality Act. The fees for tasks described in the Scope of Work have been reviewed by staff and are considered appropriate and warranted. Funding Availability: The cost for professional services for the original contract and for this Amendment to the contract will be the responsibility of Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian.

APPROVED AS TO FORM: Robin Clauson, City Attorney for the City of Newport Beach ATTEST: LaVonne Harkless, City Clerk CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, A Municipal Corporation By: Homer Bludau, City Manager for the City of Newport Beach CONSULTANT: By: Kathleen Brady, Principal for BonTerra Consulting Attachments: Exhibit A - Scope of Services Exhibit B - Schedule of Compensation Exhibit C- Billing Rates A -2 EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF SERVICES AMENDMENT NO.2 Task 1 Traffic Modeling Support Services $8,400.00 Urban Crossroads will provide the necessary traffic modeling to support the evaluation of the two alternatives in the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for Hoag Hospital. To complete this effort, the following work is necessary: a. Perform the revised With Project model run, perform post -model refinements (i.e., intersection peak hour turning movement volume and daily roadway segment volume forecasts post - processing), and review results. b. Perform the Project Alternative model run, perform post -model refinements (i.e., intersection peak hour turning movement volume and daily roadway segment volume forecasts post - processing), and review results. c. Perform sensitivity analysis of the With Project scenario to evaluate access assumptions and review daily model volume results only. Task 2 Traffic Analysis $11,000.00 Once the traffic modeling data is available from Urban Crossroads, Linscott, Law and Greenspan (LLG) will incorporate the analysis into the traffic report. To ensure the traffic report has the appropriate analysis required for the EIR, LLG has identified three primary tasks. a. Review and incorporate the updated forecasts from Urban Crossroads, and redo the traffic impact analysis based on those refined forecasts. b. Develop trip generation estimates and complete a traffic impact analysis for the project alternative. c. Incorporate the project alternative into the report and develop pertinent tables and figures for the project alternative's inclusion in the report. Task 3 Air Quality and Noise Analysis $2,490.00 Mestre Greve Associates will be responsible for analyzing the additional alternative for potential air quality and noise impacts. In addition, Mestre Greve Associates did not originally budget for team meetings. They have attended three meetings on the project to date. In addition, it is anticipated that their participation may be required at up to two more meeting. A -3 Task 4 Alternatives Analysis $5,640.00 The original scope of work for the Supplemental EIR assumed no evaluation of alternatives. Based on the discussion at the team meetings, the EIR will now evaluate an alternative that transfers 150,000 square feet from the Lower Campus to the Upper Campus. Since there will now be an alternatives section of the Supplemental EIR, it is also recommended that there be a brief discussion of the No Project Alternative. No new analysis is proposed for the No Project Alternative. The findings from the Final EIR will be used as the basis for this analysis. This task assumes 32 hours of the Associate Principal and eight hours for the Principal /Project Manager. Task 5 Management $9,620.00 The additional work effort and previous delays have extended the project schedule by approximately six months. As a result, there will be additional management time associated with the proposed project. An average of two hours a week is assumed by the Project Manger during this time period.
