CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT Agenda Item No. 7 May 08, 2007 TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: Public Works Department Michael J. Sinacod, P.E. 949 - 644 -3342 msinacod@cfty.newport-beach.ca.us SUBJECT: SURVEY ON -CALL SERVICES - APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENTS WITH COAST SURVEY AND ADVANCED SURVEY CONCEPTS AND APPROVAL OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH BUSH AND ASSOCIATES RECOMMENDATIONS: Approve Amendment No. 1 to Professional Services Agreement with Coast Survey, Inc. and Amendment No. 1 to Professional Services Agreement with Advanced Survey Concepts for on -call survey services and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Amendments. 2. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Bush and Associates for on -call survey services and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Agreement. DISCUSSION: On June 28, 2005, the City Council approved Professional Services Agreements with Coast Surveying (Coast), Advanced Survey Concepts (ASC), and Walden and Associates (Walden) to provide as needed on -call survey services. On -call agreements allow staff to retain specialized services that are regularly required for many construction projects at fees that are set for a two year period of time. Over the last two years, these on -call agreements have proven to be very effective and efficient. Coast and ASC have performed survey services for about twelve (12) projects for the City over the past two years. Walden has performed a few projects but response times have been slow due to the firm's other demands. For that reason, staff is recommending the approval of a Professional Services Agreement with Bush and Associates (Bush). Survey On -Call Services - Approval of Professional Services Agreements May 08, 2007 Page 2 The proposed Fiscal Year 2007/08 CIP has over 100 projects estimated at $37 million. Survey services typically cost under $10,000 to produce survey base mapping or perform construction staking. Many projects will require survey services. Staff recommends approval of the attached amendments to extend the agreements with Coast and ASC, which are set to expire on June 30, 2007, and authorization of a new contract with Bush and Associates. Both Coast and ASC have provided exceptional service on numerous projects. Rates included in the agreements are competitive and in line with industry standards. Bush also has performed well previously under contract with the City and as the designated subcontractor to design firms on larger projects. Funding Availability: Funds for these services are available in each of the specific project accounts within the City Council approved Capital Improvement Programs. Environmental Review: Environmental clearances will be completed for each Capital Improvement Project.

Approve Professional Services Agreements with Coast Surveying, Duca- McCoy, and Advanced Survey Services for on -call professional surveying and mapping services and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Agreements. 3. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with LSA and Associates for on -call archeological services and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Agreement. 4. Approve a Professional Services Agreements with Project Partners and Hubell Technical Services for on -call supplemental public works inspection services and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Agreements. DISCUSSION: Prior to the Council meeting of November 26, 2002, geotechnical, survey, archeological and supplemental inspection services were regularly required for many projects and a great number of small but time - consuming Professional Services Agreements (PSA's) were executed between the City and selected consultants to accomplish these on -going tasks. On November 26, 2002, Council approved the use of on -call PSA's with one soils firm and with three surveying firms. Those Agreements have expired. Due to the tremendous efficiencies of using the on -call PSA's, staff now recommends executing SUBJECT: Geotechnical, Surveying And Mapping, Archeological, And Inspection On -Call Services - Approval Of Professional Services Agreements December 9, 2003 Page 2 new agreements with an expanded list of firms as listed in the Recommendations Section above, that is - two geotechnical firms, three surveying and mapping firms, one archeological firm, and two supplemental public works inspection firms. To reduce time in preparing individual agreements for each CIP project, staff is recommending negotiating with these select consultants to provide "as needed" services. Any other firms that may be used would have individual agreements prepared for their work and if greater than $30,000 they would be brought to Council for approval. The City Council approved a Fiscal Year 2003/04 City Wide Capital Improvement Program (CIP), which totals over $33,000,000. More than 100 projects within the CIP will require some sort of geotechnical and survey services as well as occasional archeological or supplemental public works inspection services. These services are paid for from the individual project budgets. On -Call Geotechnical Firms: Harrington Geotechnical and Leighton and Associates have performed geotechnical services for more than 20 projects for the City over the past two years. The fee for their services is typically under $5,000 to perform either soil and base compaction or asphalt testing for a particular project. The firms have provided quality services to the City in the past. On -Call Surveying and Mapping Firms: Similar on -call Professional Services Agreements are recommended for surveying and mapping services. All three recommended firms provide unique specialized services that can be tailored to the City's individual projects, and have provided the City with excellent services on previous projects. The City currently employs only one licensed surveyor who utilizes other City staff to complete his survey.party. In house City survey is only done for selected projects with critical schedules and limited scope of work. The City surveyor is also involved with mapping, GIS coordination, and parcel map reviews, as well as other duties. With the renewal of the On -Call Survey Services Agreements, many of these services will be contracted with one of the above survey companies. On -Call Archeological Services: Archeological inspection and reports are required on a number of projects involving excavation, most recently on the Newport Boulevard - Balboa Boulevard Rehabilitation project and most projects in coordination with Caltrans. LSA has provided timely inspections and reports on previous projects with the City. On -Call Supplemental Public Works Inspection Firms: Over the last two years staff has had to use two supplemental inspectors due to the heavy project loads on our three full -time staff inspectors. Both inspection firms proposed are recommended and Project Partners has provided inspection services to the City in the last year. SUBJECT: Geotechnical, Surveying And Mapping, Archeological, And Inspection On -Call Services - Approval Of Professional Services Agreements December 9, 2003 Page 3 Standard On -Call Professional Services Agreement: This is the standard agreement form that was recently updated by the City Attorney's Office. The On -Call PSA with the geotechnical, survey, archeological and inspection services firms is identical to the new standardized Professional Services Agreements with the exception of Section 2 (Services to be Provided) and Section 4 (Compensation to the Consultant). These sections have been drafted to allow the consultant to provide services for multiple projects. Note - any services requiring expenditures more than $30,000 for an individual project will require a separate City Council action in accordance with Policy F -14. The proposed On -Call PSA attached to this item, would be effective through June 30, 2005. Fundina Availability: Funds for these services are available in each the specific project accounts within the City Council approved Capital Improvement Programs. Environmental Review: Environmental clearances will be completed for each Capital Improvement Project. Prepared by: Submitted by: R: Gunther, P.E. S h G.
