Berger, AICP, C &ED Program Manager 949 -644 -3207 or gaberger @city.newport- beach.ca.us SUBJECT: SANTA ANA HEIGHTS EQUESTRIAN FACILITY– AMENDMENT NO. TO PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH FUSCOE ENGINEERING, INC. RECOMMENDATION: Approve Amendment No. 1 to Professional Services. Agreement with Fuscoe Engineering, Inc., and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Amendment. • DISCUSSION: On September 7, 2006, the City Manager approved a Professional Services Agreement with Fuscoe Engineering, Inc. (FEI) for $33,085 to provide topographic surveying and conceptual grading and landscape planning services for the proposed Santa Ana Heights equestrian facility. This project proposes low -level development of riding arenas to formalize the existing equestrian - related recreational activities pursued by nearby residents of Santa Ana Heights and Newport Beach. The project is located in an existing 'Waste" area of property within the Orange County Flood Control District (OCFCD) right - of -way along the Delhi Channel, generally south of Mesa Drive, north of upper Newport Bay, and east of the Delhi Channel itself. The project seeks to consolidate the equestrian activity to this riding arena area and along existing trails, to close (and landscape) an "informal" riding ring on the "upper mesa" adjacent to neighboring residential property, and provide improved water quality for Newport Bay through improvements to the existing drainage discharge channels and through monitoring and enforcement. The current work being done is conceptual, and staff are working with both the Back Bay Equestrians and the Newport Beach Naturalists and Friends (NBNF) —and have contracted with Keeton Kreitzer Consulting (KKC) —to provide environmental documentation in accordance with CEQA and to develop a project for submittal to the California Coastal Commission. • Subsequent to the initial PSA with FEI for services -and work at the site having progressed, meetings with City design engineering staff determined that additional work by Fuscoe to provide water quality and hydrology data was warranted. FEI has submitted a proposal to amend its scope of services and fee in an amount not to exceed $29,150, which is outlined in its Request for Change Order (Attachment 1). Since the increase is more than 25% of the original contract amount, City Council approval is required per Council Policy F -14. Staff concurs that the fee of $29,150 is appropriate for the needed additional tasks and recommends Council approval. Environmental Review: This is a contract amendment for additional information gathering, which is exempt from environmental review under Section 15306 of the CEQA Guidelines. Environmental review of the project will be completed prior to City Council action on the project. Public Notice: Not applicable at this time. Funding Availability: This project is funded.by County of Orange Santa Ana Heights Redevelopment Agency funds.
