(f&B Planning) and CLIENT herein named as: CLIENT NAME: CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH JOB NUMBER: 923-006 PROJECT NAME: NEWPORT CENTER VILLAS (PA2014-213) DATE: October 29, 2015 All provisions of Contract No. 6013 (Contract) entered into between the Parties on May 5, 2015, shall remain in force and in effect except for the scope of work, budget, and schedule, as modified herein. Dear Ms. Nova: T&B Planning previously prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) for the Newport Center Villas Residential Development Project. The City of Newport Beach (City) subsequently determined that an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is required. Therefore, this proposal provides a scope of work and fee to prepare a Focused EIR in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Based your discussion with T&B Planning Senior Project Manager Shawn Nevill about the public comments received on the MND and the scope of the analyses and conclusions in the previously prepared MND, the environmental topics that will require analysis in the Focused EIR include: Aesthetics, Air Quality, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Geology and Soils, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Noise, Land Use and Planning, and Transportation/Traffic. T&B Planning anticipates that only minor revisions will be required to the technical reports that were previously prepared for the MND and that no new technical reports will be required. The Project Applicant may be asked to provide additional view simulations of the proposed Project, if deemed warranted by the City. Expectations T&B Planning's proposed scope of work and fee budget for preparing a Focused EIR for the Newport Center Villas Project is based on the following expectations. If any of these change, we reserve the right to modify the scope of work and fee budget accordingly. The environmental baseline (existing condition) has not/will not change between the time(s) that previously prepared technical reports were published/field work was conducted and the date that the EIR's Notice of Preparation (NOP) is released for public review. The City will obtain letters from the technical report authors confirming this fact, for the Administrative Record. The Project Description has not/will not change from that provided in the MND, other than the addition of a Development Agreement action and identification of construction staging areas. www.rbplanning.com Revised2015-040 PLANNING I DESIGN I ENVIRONMENTAL I GRAPHICS .I� IFirst Amendment to Contract J Newport Center Villas P L A N N I N G October 29, 2015 • The CEQA Consultant will not be required to research cumulative projects, or conduct extensive technical analysis of cumulative impacts for the subject areas supported by a technical report. We anticipate that the City will provide an updated list of cumulative projects and will provide enough information to draw conclusions about the Project's cumulative effects. • The CECIA Consultant will not be required to assist the City in in the tribal consultation process required pursuant to SB -18 and AB -52. • The CEQA Consultant will not be required to conduct public review mailings or to produce or coordinate public review and hearing notices. Those tasks will be performed by City staff. Amended Scope of Work T&B Planning (CEQA Consultant) shall provide the following additional services: TASK 6: PREPARE INITIAL STUDY AND NOTICE OF PREPARATION Sub -Task 6.1: Prepare Initial Study and NOP T&B Planning will prepare a Draft CEQA Initial Study (IS) using the CEQA Appendix G Environmental Checklist Form. This task will utilize the information that was included in the MND previously prepared for the Project. The Draft IS will include: • Statement of the purpose and scope of the IS; • Disclosure of the Lead Agency and any other public agencies that must approve the Project (if any); • Description of the proposed discretionary action(s); • Description of the Project's characteristics; • Description of the Project's location; • Overview of existing site and surrounding conditions/environmental setting; • List of references used; • Environmental evaluation by CEQA subject area (Environmental Checklist); and • Determination as to the required type of CEQA document. The Initial Study (Environmental Checklist and Responses to Environmental Checklist) will be the primary work effort for this task. The Responses to Environmental Checklist section will contain pertinent analysis from the previously prepared MND to conclude that the Project will have a less than significant impact under all environmental issue topics with the exception of Aesthetics, Air Quality, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Geology and Soils, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Noise, Land Use and Planning, and Transportation/Traffic, which will require further analysis in a Focused EIR. The budget for this task assumes a single round of minor revisions to the Initial Study/Environmental Checklist to incorporate comments from the City of Newport Beach. Following completion of any necessary revisions, T&B Planning will resubmit the Initial Study along with a draft Notice of Preparation (NOP) for City review and approval. T&B Planning's fee budget for this task presumes that the City of Newport Beach will conduct the filing, noticing, and distribution of the NOP. www.rbplanning.com Revised 201543-10 PLANNING I DESIGN I ENVIRONMENTAL I GRAPHICS .Ipq IFirst Amendment to Contract J Newport Center Villas P L A N N I N G October 29, 2015 Sub -Task 6.2: Evaluate NOP Comment Letters During the 30 -day public review period of the NOP, T&B Planning will periodically contact City staff and request copies of the public comment letters. We also will request a complete set of original letters at the close of the public comment period. If any comments necessitate an expanded scope of analysis in the EIR and/or technical reports, T&B Planning will immediately reevaluate our scope of work and notify the City. TASK 7: PREPARE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT Sub -Task 7.1: Prepare First Screencheck Draft EIR T&B Planning will commence with preparation of the First Screencheck Draft EIR immediately following distribution of the NOP. The First Screencheck Draft EIR will be prepared in accordance with State and City of Newport Beach guidelines and will generally include the following sections: Executive Summary. This introductory section will provide a synopsis of the proposed Project; a summary of the Project alternatives, including an identification of the "Environmentally Superior Alternative," and a brief discussion of any areas of controversy and issues to be resolved by the decision- making body. The Executive Summary also will include an environmental impact and mitigation summary table that will be prepared as part of Sub -Task 7.3, which will identify the significance of each impact, mitigation measures, the party responsible for implementing each mitigation measure, and the timeframe in which each measure should be completed. Introduction. The Introduction will explain the purpose of the EIR, the legal authority for preparation of the EIR, and the EIR process. The Project's complete CEQA process will be explained, including discussion about the prior MND and the City's decision to prepare an EIR. The relationship of the Project to the City's General Plan and General Plan EIR will be disclosed as well. This section will also identify other applicable planning documents that apply to the Project area. In addition, the Introduction will identify the Lead Agency (City of Newport Beach), Responsible Agencies, and/or Trustee Agencies (Regional Water Quality Control Board). Future Project -related approvals and/or permits to allow construction and operation of the Project also will be described. Environmental Setting. The Environmental Setting will describe the Project's location, geographic and physical setting, surrounding land uses, and the physical environmental conditions of the property as they existed on the date of the EIR's NOP issuance. A brief overview of the environmental conditions of the Project area also will be provided, including any unique or rare resources in the area (proximityto Newport Bay and the Pacific Ocean). In addition, a summary of the existing planning and policy context will be presented, including the property's relationship to the General Plan, zoning, and other applicable regional plans and policy documents. The Environmental Setting section will utilize information identified in the MND's Environmental Setting section, but will be updated to include any changes to the Project Site and surrounding area since the MND was prepared. The Environmental Setting section will also include a more expansive discussion of the existing conditions for most environmental topics. www.r6planning.com PLANNING I DESIGN I ENVIRONMENTAL I GRAPHICS x�Kamis�-Io 'dIpq L I First Amendment to Contract J Newport Center Villas P L A N N i N G October 29, 2015 Project Description. The Project Description, which will be based on the Project Description prepared as part of the IS/NOP and prior MND, will be used as the basis for the impact analysis throughout the EIR. Compared to the MND's project description, added elements will include a Development Agreement and information about construction equipment staging. This section will include a brief description of the Project's location and setting. This section also will identify the Project's objectives, which will form the basis for subsequent analysis of Project alternatives. An extensive description of the proposed Project will be included, including construction and operational details, and areas that would be impacted by off- site improvements and construction. Finally, the Project Description will list the anticipated subsequent approvals to construct and operate the proposed Project. Exhibits will be included in this section to describe the Project proposal, taken directly from the Project's application materials on file with the City of Newport Beach. Environmental Analysis. The analysis of environmental effects section will address each environmental issue required by CEQA, in the following general manner. The existing conditions/environmental setting as it relates specifically to the environmental topic under evaluation will be described to establish a baseline for conducting the environmental analysis. As necessary and appropriate, a description of key terminology and concepts associated with the environmental issue area will be presented, followed by a discussion of any regulatory requirements that may apply. Next, the significance criteria will be listed and will be accompanied by a justification as to the appropriateness of the criteria selected for evaluation. An analysis will then be presented for each significance criteria, and the analysis will provide a clear description and conclusion as to the level of significance of Project impacts, prior to mitigation. The analysis also will include a discussion of potential cumulative impacts, which are defined as those which by themselves may not result in significant impacts but when combined with similar impacts from existing, approved -but -not -yet -built or planned projects would be cumulatively significant. T&B Planning rely on City staff to confirm the list of surrounding projects to be included in the cumulative impacts analysis. For each significant impact identified, feasible and enforceable mitigation measures will be presented. Finally, each chapter in this section will provide a conclusion as to the level of significance following implementation of recommended mitigation measures. This proposal assumes the following environmental issue areas will be addressed in the EIR: Aesthetics, Air Quality, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Geology and Soils, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Noise, Land Use and Planning, and Transportation/Traffic. This assumption is based on the previously prepared MND for the Newport Center Villas Residential Development Project and in consideration of public comment received by the City on the MND. Other CEQA Considerations. The EIR will summarize unavoidable impacts of the Project and will identify whether or not the impacts will be mitigated to below a level of significance. The EIR also will disclose significant irreversible environmental changes which would be involved in the proposed action should it be implemented. A discussion of Growth Inducement will focus on elements of the proposed Project that could potentially spur growth (and density intensification) in the area, such as the construction of a seven -story building on a parcel in Newport Center that is immediately surrounded by lower -stature buildings. This section also will contain a discussion of the Project's energy consumption in accordance www.rbplanning.com Revised 2015 -D3 -IO PLANNING I DESIGN I ENVIRONMENTAL I GRAPHICS .I� IFirst Amendment to Contract J Newport Center Villas P L A N N i N G October 29, 2015 with CEQA Guidelines Appendix F and determine if the Project would result in an inefficient or wasteful use of energy. Project Alternatives. The Project Alternatives section will be based on a description of reasonable Project alternatives defined in consultation with City staff. Each alternative identified in this section will be designed meet the Project's primary objectives while minimizing or eliminating significant environmental effects associated with the proposed Project. For purposes of budgeting for this task, it is anticipated that three (3) alternatives will be presented in the EIR, including the No Project Alternative (retention of the site as a car wash with ancillary gas station). A subsection will be included in the Project Alternatives analysis that identifies alternatives that were considered but not evaluated, which will include a brief discussion of the reason(s) why these alternatives were not evaluated. References. This required section will identify all reference sources used and persons contacted in order to prepare the EIR. T&B Planning will submit three (3) printed, bound copies and one (1) CD (Word and PDF files) of the First Screencheck Draft EIR to the City for review and comment. Sub -Task 7.2: Prepare Second Screencheck Draft EIR Following City review of the First Screencheck Draft EIR, T&B Planning will revise the document to respond to any comments or questions received from City staff and any comments or questions that the Applicant and/or its legal counsel may pose to the City. This proposal anticipates that comments will be moderate in scope and complexity. All document revisions will be indicated in highlight or strikeout/underline format. For the purpose of creating a budget for this task, we anticipate that the City will not require substantial changes to the Project Description or request substantial expansions to any technical studies prepared in support of the EIR. Upon completion of the revised Screencheck Draft EIR, T&B Planning will submit one (1) printed, bound copy and one (1) CD (Word and PDF files) of the Second Screencheck Draft EIR to the City for review and comment. Following City review of the Second Screencheck Draft EIR document, it is anticipated that the City would clear the EIR for public review. However, if the City requests a third review, T&B Planning would arrange a meeting with appropriate City staff and Project team members to discuss the City's comments and recommend appropriate ways to address their concerns. Additional budget would be required to revise the Screencheck Draft EIR should a third review of the document be necessary. Sub -Task 7.3: Prepare Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) T&B Planning will prepare a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) in accordance with State law and City requirements to ensure implementation of mitigation measures, standard conditions, and Project design features assumed in the EIR's analysis of impacts. The MMRP will be provided as part of the First Screencheck Draft EIR. The MMRP will identify the conclusions drawn by the EIR, identify the level of impact significance for each significance threshold, and list every Project requirement and mitigation measure listed in the body of the EIR, with the implementation timing and responsible parties noted. T&B Planning staff is experienced in www.tbplanning.com >t sea2015o3-10 PLANNING I DESIGN I ENVIRONMENTAL I GRAPHICS 'AIpq L I I First Amendment to Contract J Newport Center Villas P L A N N I N G October 29, 2015 preparing practical, easily -implemented mitigation monitoring plans for a wide range of mitigation requirements. This proposal includes one round of moderate revisions to the MMRP in strikeout/underline format based on comments provided by City staff. Sub -Task 7.4: Prepare Public Review Draft EIR Upon receiving City authorization to publish the Draft EIR, T&B Planning will prepare and print for public distribution the Public Draft EIR and its Technical Appendices per City direction and State requirements. T&B Planning will provide the City with up to 50 printed, bound copies of the Public Review Draft EIR (with Technical Appendices on CD), as well as 35 CDs (PDF file only) with the Public Review Draft EIR and Technical Appendices. This proposal assumes that the City will post the EIR on its website and prepare an advertisement for publication in the local newspaper as required by CEQA and ensure publication of the newspaper advertisement. We also assume that the City will conduct the mailing; if T&B Planning is requested to conduct the mailing, additional budget will be required. During the 45 -day review period, written public comment will be directed to the City. We recommend that the City forward copies of the comment letters to T&B Planning as they are received, and then send us the complete set of original letters at the close of the public comment period. If any comments necessitate an expanded scope of analysis in the Final EIR, we will immediately evaluate our scope -of -work and notify the City. Sub -Task 7.5: Prepare Draft Responses to Public Comments and Draft Final EIR Upon completion of the 45 -day public review period, T&B Planning will prepare written responses to all comment letters received. All comments received in response to the Public Review Draft EIR will be discussed with City staff as necessary and an approach to the responses will be agreed upon prior to preparation of the draft Responses to Comments. The draft Response to Comments will be submitted to the City for review and approval. The budget for this task assumes that up to 96 hours of T&B staff time will be required in order to respond to each of the comments received on the Draft EIR. Concurrently, we also will identify revisions to the Draft EIR that were made as part of the Final EIR in an Errata table. These revisions would be necessary to clarify or amplify information to reflect the draft Response to Comments. If any public comments necessitate an expanded scope of analysis in the Final EIR or additional technical analysis, T&B Planning will immediately evaluate our scope -of -work and notify the City. A new section "Final EIR" will be drafted to document the public review process for the EIR, summarize the comment letters received, and identify the nature, location, and reason for any and all revisions incorporated into the final document. This new section also will provide a discussion and rationale for why recirculation of the Public Review Draft EIR for an additional 45 -day public review period is not required pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15088.5. One (1) CD with the first draft of the Response to Comments and draft Final EIR will be submitted to the City for review. Following receipt of comments from City staff and any comments or questions that the Applicant and/or its legal counsel may pose to the City, T&B Planning will incorporate revisions to the draft Response to Comments and draft Final EIR and re -submit the documents for a second iteration of City review. www.rbplanning.com Rev W201543 -I0 PLANNING I DESIGN I ENVIRONMENTAL I GRAPHICS .AIPq First Amendment to Contract Newport Center Villas P L A N N I N G October 29, 2015 Following the City's second review of the draft Response to Comments and draft Final EIR, it is assumed that the document will either be approved by City staff for consideration by the Planning Commission, or that only minor revisions would be necessary. Major revisions are not expected, nor budgeted. Sub -Task 7.6: Prepare Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations Using a format supplied by the City of Newport Beach, T&B Planning will prepare the CEQA documents required for the Final EIR public hearings, including the draft Statement of Overriding Considerations (if required) and the Section 15091 CEQA Findings of Fact (requiring a summary of each effect, identification of one or more of the required CEQA findings, listing of the associated mitigation measures, and the rationale for implementing the measures). This document will be submitted to the City for review and approval via CD (Word and PDF format). Following review of the first draft, it is anticipated that the City may request minor revisions to clarify or expand on the findings and/or rationale for adopting a Statement of Overriding Considerations. The budget for this task assumes one round of revisions to the Findings of Fact/Statement of Overriding Considerations. Sub -Task 7.7: Prepare Final EIR Pursuant to receiving the City's approval of the Response to Comments, T&B Planning will finalize the draft Final EIR document and will produce 25 printed, bound copies (with Technical Appendices on CD) and 25 CDs (PDF format) for use by the decision makers during the public hearing stages. Additionally, a minimum of ten (10) days before public hearings, T&B Planning will coordinate with the City to ensure that copies of the Responses to Comments have been distributed to all Responsible and Trustee Agencies that commented on the Public Review Draft EIR via certified mail. The budget for this proposal anticipates that the City will conduct the mailing. Sub -Task 7.8: Project Management and Meeting Attendance This task covers coordination tasks associated with T&B Planning's work, including time spent by T&B Planning preparing/updating Project schedules and all external coordination including but not limited to communication via phone, e-mail, letter, memo, and/or web -based conferencing with City staff, public agencies, legal counsel, Project Applicant representatives, and the technical report preparers (as needed). Sub -Task 7.9: CEQA Public Notice Coordination T&B Planning understands that City staff will prepare, distribute, and file all CEQA-required public notices for the Project, including the Notice of Preparation (NOP), Notice of Availability (NOA), and Notice of Determination (NOD). During City staffs preparation of the draft CEQA-required public notices, T&B Planning will review the draft notices for CEQA compliance adequacy. If revisions are required to any public notice to comply with CEQA, T&B Planning will send recommended revisions to City staff via electronic mail. Sub -Task 7.10: Attend Public Meetings & Hearings A T&B Planning Principal (Tracy Zinn) or Senior Project Manager (Shawn Nevill) will attend an EIR Scoping Meeting and up to three (3) public hearings before City of Newport Beach decision-making bodies.

If less time is required, we will only bill for the time actually spent. If preparation time required exceeds three (3) hours per hearing or if the public hearings are longer than four (4) hours each, the additional time will be billed against Sub -Task 7.8. A brief PowerPoint presentation is budgeted to present the EIR. In the event that T&B Planning's attendance is required at more than three (3) public hearings, additional budget may be required. Sub -Task 7.11: Compilation of Administrative Record Before the Draft EIR is released for public review, and again prior to first public hearing, T&B Planning will prepare a comprehensive electronic record of all relevant documentation in our possession for transfer to the City as part of the Administrative Record. Relevant documentation will include final versions of the Draft EIR (before public review), Final EIR (before first public hearing), supporting technical reports, all information sources cited in the EIR's references section, and pertinent written correspondence related to the EIR analysis methodologies and findings. The budget for this task assumes that up to 48 staff hours will be necessary to prepare the Administrative Record. However, if less time is required, T&B Planning will only bill for the time actually spent. T&B Planning will provide the City with one (1) CD containing these materials for inclusion in the Administrative Record. Sub -Task 7.12: Document Publishine and Coordination Work conducted under this task includes compilation of the First Screencheck EIR, Second Screencheck EIR, Public Review Draft EIR, Final EIR and Findings of Facts/Statement of Overriding Considerations for printing and distribution. These documents are required to be distributed in both electronic and hard copy formats.

Sincerely, T&B PLANNING, INC. Tracy Zinn, AICP Vice President www.tbpIanning.com PLANNING I DESIGN I ENVIRONMENTAL j GRAPHICS Proposal for City of Newport Beach -Newport Center Villas Project SECTION B: SCOPE OF WORK SCOPE OF WORK Project Understanding R L�'J Based on information provided in the City's RFP dated February 24, 2015, it is our understanding that the project applicant is seeking to redevelop the property located at 150 Newport Center Drive. Under existing conditions, the approximately 1.3 -acre site contains a car wash and a gasoline fueling station. The project applicant is seeking to demolish the existing site improvements and develop 49 condominium dwelling units and related site improvements. The City is processing the following applications for the proposed project: General Plan Amendment, Zoning Code Amendment, Planned Community Development Plan, Site Development Review, Tract Map, and Development Agreement. The General Plan Amendment would change the site's land use designation from CO- R (Regional Commercial Office) to RM (Multi -Unit Residential). The Zoning Code Amendment would change the zoning designations from OR (Office Regional Commercial) to establish development standards for a planned community development plan classification over the entire project site. The Planned Community Development Plan would create the proposed development plan, in accordance with the proposed zoning standards, for 49 new condominium units. This would also involve issuance of a waiver of the minimum site area of 10 acres, and authorize an increase in the height limit to 87 feet. The Site Development Review would authorize construction of 49 multi -family dwelling units, in accordance the Planned Community Plan. The Tentative Tract Map would create an air space subdivision for the proposed 49 -unit condominium project. The Development Agreement would authorize certain development rights beyond the 450 residential units identified in Table LU2, per Land Use Policy 6.14.8 (Development Agreements) of the General Plan, in exchange for public benefits. Key environmental concerns identified by City staff include aesthetic impacts associated with a much taller building on this site, the change from commercial to residential land use, and possibly issues involving remediation of hazardous materials associated with the existing gas station. Due to the relatively deep excavation required to construct three levels of subterranean parking, there may also be issues of concern with respect to geological or soils constraints and required construction methods. It is our understanding that the proposed project would not generate sufficient net new vehicle trips to trigger a standard traffic impact assessment involving analysis of intersection levels of service, but the City does want a review of the existing trip generation and an evaluation of the design of the proposed site access points, based on the projected amount of traffic generated by the 49 condominium homes. The City of Newport Beach will retain the services of a CEQA consultant to prepare the appropriate CEQA compliance document(s) on behalf of the City and manage the CEQA process in compliance with City procedures and California state law. Based on the assumption that all environmental effects associated with the project would be less than significant or mitigated to a level below significance, City staff has determined that a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) will be required. Thus, this proposal provides a scope of work and budget for the preparation and processing of a MND in support of the project. Page 10 T&B Planning, Inc. Proposal for City of Newport Beach -Newport Center Villas Project '. SECTION B: SCOPE OF WORK , ! Scope of Work Provided below is TO Planning's proposed Scope of Work. Please note that the Scope of Work described below will likely not be undertaken chronologically as presented. To expedite the schedule, there may be considerable overlap on the timing of each task. Additionally, all meetings and coordination efforts are included under Task 4.1, although these efforts will occur throughout the entire scope of work. Refer to SECTION C, Estimated Schedule and Project Budget. It is our understanding that application materials and several technical studies have been or will be prepared by the project applicant and will be provided to T&B Planning for use in preparing the project's MND. Technical studies and support documents noted in our telephone conversation with the City include: Vicinity Map, Project Description, Project Plans and Visual Perspectives, Planned Community Development Plan, Preliminary Water Quality Management Plan, Preliminary Geotechnical Feasibility Study, and Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessments. The adequacy of these plans and reports for the purpose of the assessment of environmental impacts in the CEQA document has not been determined, and these materials may need to be revised to provide sufficient information and analysis. T&B Planning will review these materials and provide the City with recommendations on any supplemental information that may be deemed necessary to support the IS/MND. We will conduct a field visit and collect GPS -referenced photographs to confirm that the project site is not visible or minimally visible within important viewing corridors identified in the City's General Plan. As part of this proposal, T&B Planning will contract with Urban Crossroads, Inc., for the preparation of an air quality study and an analysis of the project's greenhouse gas footprint, and will contract with TJW Engineering, Inc. for preparation of a limited traffic study. The scope of work and budget provided below assume that no additional technical studies would be required to support the IS/MND. If such studies are determined necessary, we will revise our scope of work and budget as necessary and appropriate. TASK 1: PREPARE SCREENCHECK IS/MND Sub -Task 1.1 Research, Data Acquisition, and Review During this task, T&B Planning will collect and review applicable information about the proposed project and environmental conditions of the subject property to gain a basic, working knowledge of the project site. T&B Planning will conduct a cursory field visit and take photographs to document existing site conditions, surrounding development, visibility of the site from public roads and General Plan view corridors, and other aspects of the site's physical and environmental setting that will warrant consideration in the environmental analysis. The photos will be GPS -referenced and will be used as the baseline for analysis in the MND and the aesthetics evaluation as required by CEQA. Sub -Task 1.2 Prepare Project Description Prior to initiating any substantive work and following Sub -Task 1.1, T&B Planning will prepare a formal Project Description to be used throughout the CEQA compliance process. The Project Description will include both text and exhibits and describe the proposed project and its associated applications and characteristics. We expect that a majority of the exhibits will be taken from the application materials, with minimal graphic manipulation work required by T&B Planning to support the CEQA process. If application materials are revised after the Project Description is prepared, additional budget would be required for Project Description updates. Page 11 T&B Planning, Inc. Proposal for City of Newport Beach-Newport Center Villas Project tJ SECTION B: SCOPE OF WORK t,1 ,! Sub -Task 1.3 Prepare Screencheck IS/MND T&B Planning will prepare a Screencheck IS/MND using the CEQA Environmental Checklist Form. The Draft IS/MND will include: • Introduction. The Introduction will explain the purpose of the MND, describe the format and content of the MND, and provide an overview of CEQA requirements for preparation and processing of MNDs; • Environmental Setting. The Environmental Setting will identify the project's location and describe the physical environmental conditions in the vicinity of the project site, including, but not limited to: site access; site conditions; existing and surrounding land uses; and existing environmental characteristics (e.g., hydrology/drainage, etc.); and • Protect Description. The Project Description will provide a description of the Project and future discretionary and/or ministerial approvals needed to implement the project, and the project's construction and operational characteristics. It is anticipated that a majority of the text within this section will be taken from the Project Description prepared as part of Sub -Task 1.2. • Environmental Analysis. This section will include: — Statement of the purpose and scope of the IS; — Disclosure of the Lead Agency and any other public agencies that must approve the project; — Description of the proposed discretionary actions; — Description of the project's characteristics; — Description of the project's location; — Overview of existing site and surrounding conditions/environmental setting; — Examination of project consistency with the site's proposed zoning, plans, and any other applicable land use controls; — List of references used; — Environmental evaluation by CEQA subject area (Environmental Checklist); — Review of pertinent sections of the Newport Beach General Plan and General Plan EIR — Determination as to the required type of CEQA document. The Environmental Checklist and Responses to Environmental Checklist will be the primary work effort for this task. The Responses to Environmental Checklist section will contain a thorough analysis and determine the significance of impacts to the following environmental resources. — Aesthetics — Air Quality — Geology/Soils — Greenhouse Gas Emissions — Hazards and Hazardous Materials — Hydrology & Water Quality — Land Use and Planning — Noise — Population and Housing — Public Services — Recreation — Transportation/Traffic — Utilities/Service Systems — Mandatory Findings of Significance Because the site is fully developed, we anticipate that only nominal analysis will be required for: Agriculture and Forestry Resources; Biological Resources; Cultural Resources; and Mineral Resources. Page 12 T&B Planning, Inc. Proposal for City of Newport Beach -Newport Center Villas Project 'I ! SECTION B: SCOPE OF WORK `�' Each of the environmental issue areas will be assigned a significance rating of "No Impact," "Less than Significant Impact," or "Less than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated." For each issue area, a detailed rationale will be provided within the Responses to Environmental Checklist section to provide substantive evidence for the conclusion drawn. Where necessary, mitigation measures will be identified to reduce any potentially significant impacts to a level below significant. References will be cited and relied upon as appropriate. Sub -Task 1.4 Revise Screencheck IS/MND At the completion of Sub -Task 1.3, T&B Planning will supply a copy of the IS/MND to the City of Newport Beach and meet with City staff to discuss the outcome of the IS and the recommended type of CEQA document, which for purposes of this proposal, is assumed to be an MND. One round of revision to the Screencheck IS/MND is budgeted to respond to all reasonable comments made by City staff. If additional revisions are required, they will be addressed as part of our Sub -Task 2.1 work efforts. TASK 2: PREPARE MMRP, PUBLIC REVIEW DRAFT MND, AND FINAL MND This proposal assumes that the results of the IS/Environmental Checklist will determine that all project -related impacts are either less than significant, or would be reduced to a level below significant with the incorporation of mitigation measures. In the event that the analysis conducted pursuant to Sub -Task 1.3 identifies impacts that cannot be mitigated to a level below significant, then an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) would be required. Preparation of an EIR is not accounted for by this Scope of Work, and is not anticipated to be needed. Sub -Task 2.1 MMRP As part of the IS/MND, T&B Planning will clearly identify all significant impacts and recommend feasible mitigation measures to reduce those impacts to below a level of significance. T&B Planning also will prepare a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) in accordance with State law and City of Newport Beach requirements to ensure implementation of mitigation measures, standard conditions, and project design features required as part of specific project approvals. The MMRP will be provided to the City for review. One round of revision to the MMRP is budgeted to respond to all reasonable comments made by City staff. We anticipate that one review cycle will be sufficient; however, if the City requests a second review, T&B Planning would arrange a meeting with the appropriate City staff to discuss the City's comments and recommend appropriate ways to address any concerns. Sub -Task 2.2 Prepare Public Review MND for Distribution Upon receiving the City's authorization to finalize the Draft MND, T&B Planning will prepare and print the document for public distribution and work with City staff to compile the MND's distribution mailing list. This proposal assumes that the applicant's Title Company will provide mailing labels for property owners within the City's required notification radius. This proposal also assumes that the City of Newport Beach will provide their standard public agency notification list as a basis from which to compile the MND's distribution mailing list. T&B Planning will conduct the required mailing, in both hard copy and electronic (CD) formats. It is assumed that a majority of recipients would receive either only a Notice of Intent (NOI), or copies of the MND on CDs, with minimal hard copies needed. The MND will be packaged with all of the supporting technical studies serving as MND Appendices. For purposes of budgeting, it is assumed that all supporting technical studies will be provided in electronic format on CDs, and that there would be no more than 25 recipients of the draft MND document (in CD format with hard copies supplied for public libraries and City use). As part of this task, T&B Planning also will prepare the CEQA-required Notice of Intent (NOI) to adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration. Page 13 T&B Planning, Inc. Proposal for City of Newport Beach -Newport Center Villas Project SECTION B: SCOPE OF WORK Sub -Task 2.3 Consider Public Comment on MND Upon completion of the public review period, T&B Planning will review all comment letters, and evaluate the MND for CEQA adequacy in consideration of the submitted comments. In response to letters of comment, revisions may be necessary to the MND which will be discussed with the City and authorized prior to changes being made to the document. For purposes of this proposal, our budget assumes that only minor MND changes would be necessary to prepare the Final MND for consideration by City decision -makers. Formal written responses to comments are not required by CEQA for a MND; nonetheless, we have budgeted to supply written responses for up to 20 substantive comments. Sub -Task 2.4 Prepare Final MND and Notice of Determination (NOD) T&B Planning will prepare a Final MND in the form of an Errata Table of Changes/Additions to the Draft MND for review and approval by City staff. Pursuant to receiving the City's approval, T&B Planning will package the Final MND with the Draft MND for use by the decision makers during the public hearing stages. After adoption of the MND by the City Council, T&B Planning will prepare a Notice of Determination (NOD) form pursuant to Section 15075 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Once reviewed and approved by City staff, T&B Planning will post the NOD with the County Clerk and submit the required fees. We expect a check for the filing fees to be supplied by the project applicant. Timely filing of the NOD (within five (5) working days of final decision) reduces the statute of limitations on court challenges to the approval under CEQA to 30 calendar days. TASK 3: PREPARE TECHNICAL STUDIES Based on the information provided in the RFP, it is our understanding that all CEQA-required technical studies will be provided by the Project Applicant, with exception of a traffic study, an air quality study and an assessment of the project's greenhouse gas emissions. Urban Crossroads, Inc., will prepare the assessment of air quality and GHG impacts, as a subconsultant to T&B Planning. The Traffic Study will be prepared by TJW Engineering, as a subconsultant to T&B Planning. Additional technical studies that may be required in support of the project are not budgeted at this time. The scopes of work for the air quality, greenhouse gas and traffic impact studies are summarized below. The budget for these tasks assumes one (1) round of revisions to a first draft report address both topics, based on comments provided by the City or Project Applicant. Sub -Task 3.1 Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Impact Analyses Existing air quality conditions will be documented and described, along with the impact significance thresholds recommended by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). Emissions associated with the existing car wash and gasoline fuel island activities will be estimated and compared to emissions that would be generated by the proposed project. Project impacts will be assessed based on the net increase in criteria pollutant emissions, compared to the SCAQMD localized and regional emissions thresholds. Impacts will be assessed for construction activities and for the long-term operations of the completed project. Greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) associated with the existing car wash and gasoline fuel island will be quantified and compared to the levels of GHGs associated with construction and operations of the proposed project. Net new GHGs will be examined for a determination of significance with respect to SCAQMD's recommended interim thresholds for project -level assessments, and with respect to GHG reduction measures identified in the City's Energy Action Plan and General Plan EIR. Page 14 T&B Planning, Inc. Proposal for City of Newport Beach -Newport Center Villas Project SECTION B: SCOPE OF WORK Urban Crossroads will submit one draft report, respond to one set of review comments by T&B and City staff, and then submit a final report. Sub -Task 3.2 Traffic and Site Access Study TJW Engineering, Inc., as a subconsultant to T&B Planning, will prepare a limited analysis of the project's trip generation and site access features, based on direction provided to TJW by Mr. David Keely of the City's Public Works Department. The proposed scope of work includes collecting peak hour traffic counts for the existing land uses over a consecutive three day weekday period, then calculating the project's net new traffic generation. If the Applicant provides sufficient existing traffic count data, collection of the three days of peak hour counts will be eliminated from TJW's scope of work and budget. An analysis of the proposed site access locations and design features will be conducted, based on a 24-hour average daily traffic count to be taken by TJW on Anacapa Drive, adjacent to the project site. Site access will be analyzed with respect to turning volumes at the proposed Anacapa Drive driveways, based on 2010 Highway Capacity Manual methodology, and will also address sight distance considerations. Access design features will be evaluated with respect to standard engineering design factors and any standard specifications established by the City of Newport Beach. TJW will respond to one consolidated set of review comments by T&B Planning and the City, and will prepare a final memorandum documenting results of the field work, traffic counts, trip generation calculations, site access recommendations. TASK 4: MEETINGS, HEARINGS, AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT It is our intent to anticipate the meetings, hearings, coordination and correspondence which might be required as part of this task. However, because working on entitlement projects is so often "reactive," it is impossible to know exactly what work will be needed. Therefore, while we have provided budgets for each of the tasks below, these budgets should be considered estimates only, because all work performed under this Phase of work by T&B Planning will be on a Time and Materials basis in accordance with our HOURLY RATES AND BILLING POLICY, which is included herein within SECTION D. Certain tasks can be anticipated and have been identified, but we also realize that a client's needs sometimes require additional meetings, unanticipated correspondence, etc. As the work efforts associated with these tasks are identified, we can provide updated budget estimates for their completion. Sub -Task 4.1 Meetings, Correspondence, and Coordination All time spent by T&B Planning in attending meetings, preparing/updating project schedules, or in coordinating/communicating via phone, e-mail, letter and/or web -based conferencing with City staff, public agencies, the project proponent, and technical consultants (as needed) will be billed on a Time and Materials basis against the budget for this task. As part of this Sub -Task, T&B Planning also will provide quality control services for the project's air quality and GHG reports, and for critical review of technical studies prepared for the Applicant. Accordingly, we will review the various supporting documents prepared for the Applicant to determine if sufficient information and analysis is provided to support our response to the Initial Study Checklist questions. If we should identify additional information needs, the Applicant will direct their consultants to provide that information, to the satisfaction of City staff and T&B Planning. In addition, T&B Planning will prepare and submit the appropriate application form with the CDFW to request a waiver of their filing fee under the "No Effect Determination" provision. Attendance by a T&B Planning Principal or Senior Project Manager at up to two (2) meetings with City staff also is included in the budget for this sub - task. The amount of effort required for this task is highly dependent on the level of controversy that may arise Page 15 T&B Planning, Inc. Proposal for City of Newport Beach -Newport Center Villas Project SECTION B: SCOPE OF WORK ,I J over the course of the project. The actual number of hours associated with this task may be higher or lower than the estimated budget; which is set at $6,475.00. We will only bill for the actual number of hours required for this task. Attendance at Public Hearings is budgeted separately as part of Sub -Task 4.2. Sub -Task 4.2 Public Hearings A T&B Senior Project Manager will attend up to three (3) public hearings before the City Planning Commission and City Council. If additional public hearings are required, then attendance at such hearings will instead be invoiced based on the additional hours and expenses involved. Sub -Task 4.3 Publication and Print Coordination This sub -task covers work efforts that are required to prepare, publish, and quality -control proofread the IS and MND and other materials for review and distribution, as hard and/or electronic copies. As per the request of the City's RFP for this project, T&B Planning will provide electronic copies of the draft and complete MND and 14 hard copies prior to public hearings. The actual number of hours associated with this task may be higher or lower than the estimated budget; however, we will only bill for the actual number of hours required. Sub -Task 4.4 Administrative Record (Optional Task; Not Budgeted) If requested by the City, T&B will be provide an administrative record of reports and communications pertaining to the preparation of the MND. This would facilitate the City's efforts to comply with requests for such a record in the event of a legal challenge or satisfy the City's desire to maintain this documentation as a matter of practice. This task is described below. Before the Draft MND is released for public review, and again before the first public hearing, T&B Planning will prepare a comprehensive electronic record, with a corresponding index, of all relevant documentation in our possession for transfer to the Lead Agency as part of the Administrative Record. Relevant documentation will include final versions of the Initial Study/NOP, Draft MND (before public review), Final MND (before first public hearing), supporting technical reports, all information sources cited in the MND's references section, and pertinent written correspondence related to the MND analysis methodologies and findings. T&B Planning will provide the Lead Agency with one (1) CD containing these items for the Administrative Record.
