Item 17 Staff Report Adopt Resolution Authorizing Town Manager to Execute Amendment Number 3 to Agreement with RBF Consulting (Formerly Known as Robert Bein, Willian Frost and Associates) for General Plan Services
MEETING DATE: 10/16/00 ITEM NO. In COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT DATE: October 12, 2000 TO: MAYOR AND TO CIL FROM: TOWN MAN SUBJECT: ADOPT RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING TO MANAGER TO EXECUTE AMENDMENT NUMBER 3 TO AGREEMENT WITH RBF CONSULTING (FORMERLY KNOWN AS ROBERT BEIN, WILLIAM FROST AND ASSOCIATES) FOR GENERAL PLAN SERVICES RECOMMENDATION: Adopt resolution (Attachment 1) authorizing Town Manger to execute Amendment Number 3 to agreement with RBF Consulting (formerly known as Robert Bein, William Frost and Associates) for General Plan Update consultant services. DISCUSSION: The agreement with RBF Consulting for the General Plan Update included a task to complete a Storm Drain Master Plan at a cost of $91,000. The task was included as part of the Existing Conditions and Data Collection portion of the General Plan Update. The consultant has completed this task but is requesting additional funding for work that was required to produce a product that will better meet the Town's needs. The consultant has prepared a detailed letter describing why additional work was necessary (Attachment 2). This work was done without prior written authorization from the Town, but staff agrees that the additional work has produced a far superior product. Staff supports partially reimbursing the consultant for the additional work and is recommending payment of $40,000 in lieu of the $59,100 requested by the consultant. The consultant has agreed to this arrangement. The Storm Drain Master Plan prepared by the consultant involved a comprehensive effort to identify and map the Town's publicly maintained storm drain system, and to evaluate the entire system for capacity deficiencies. In doing so, the consultant generated hydrologic and hydraulic design criteria specific for the Town's use to model existing facilities and to define alternatives to improve system performance. The result is a powerful tool that can be used by Town staff to evaluate impacts from further development activity to ensure that proper conditions are attached to development projects. Additionally, the Master Plan establishes a new basis for determining impact fees that the Town may choose to assess against new development to support projects that will enhance system capacity, and a methodolgy for prioritizing such projects. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT: The amendment of the RBF Consulting Agreement is not a project defined under CEQA, therefore no action is required. (Continued on Page 2) PREPARED BY: BUD N. LORTZ LARRY I.

There have been a number of unforseen challenges and roadblocks along the way that have hindered our progress and have created both obstacles to preparation of the Storm Drain Master Plan, as well as the need for initiation and development of substantially more work than was anticipated in our Town Council approved scope of work. Mr. Bruce Phillips, P.E., Project Hydrologist has outlined these additional work efforts very specifically on the pages that follow. Given that this work effort is substantially complete, you can be assured that the work products engaged were completed in good faith, and I believe should be compensated accordingly. We have discussed each of these tasks with you, Mr. Lortz and Mr. Perlin in detail on Wednesday, August 16, 2000. Based on the August 16, 2000 meeting, we supplemented this request with a matrix description of the original tasks identified in the Scope of Work with a comparison of what we have completed for the Town. This matrix is included as Attachment CCA7f As we noted during our meeting, the brief summary below describes some of the challenges we have encountered, and why RBF is requesting additional funds to cover our burden. • Additional Watershed Base Sheet Information / Level of Detail: Based on Town input, RBF Significantly increased level of detail and number of exhibits to present the Town watershed with the proposed drainage facilities and hydrologic detail. Number of exhibits doubled based upon the suitable scale to present the information. Additional information presented on the exhibits (as PLANNING DESIGN CONSTRUCTION 226 Airport Parkway, Suite 600, San Jose, CA 95110-3705 • 408.451.9260 • Fax 408.451.9261 Offices located throughout California, Arizona & Nevada ■ www.RBFcom Pooled or recycled paper Attachment 2 • Additional/Enhanced Detail of Subarea Delineation: The small drainage facilities associated with the Town required that the watershed delineation be performed on amuch higher degree of detail than originally anticipated for the contract. The detailed delineation required the generation of a five fold increase of subareas and calculation of the drainage parameters. Estimated Additional Manhours: 125 Additional Fee: $10,600 • Master Plan Drainage Facility Evaluation Program : Developed software program which is linked to the hydrology component of the analysis and evaluates the hydraulic facility sizing and deficiency analysis of the existing system. The program is designed to perform the cost estimating for the required facility sizing. Program provides sizing of underground storm drain pipes, culverts, streets, and channels. Estimated Additional Manhours: 45 Additional Fee: $4,200 • Additional Hydrology Analysis for Enhanced Level of Watershed Detail: Work effort to perform additional hydrology analysis with substantially increased amount of subareas and flowpaths than originally anticipated because of the smaller facilities evaluated. Estimated Additional Manhours: 85 Additional Fee: $7,500 Total Additional Fee = $59,100 The above items have resulted in an expenditure of $59,100 of staff time and resources, all of which are not addressed in our currently approved scope of work and which have been expended based on direction and input from Town staff in the coordination efforts for preparation of the Town's Master Plan of Drainage. While I believe the aforementioned bullet items address the heart of the issues, I would be happy to provide any additional detail as necessary. Please give me a call should you have any additional questions. S�ncerely, aura Worthington -Forbes Senior Associate Project Manager -Los Gatos General Plan/General Plan EIR 2000 cc: Mr. Larry Perlin, Public Works Director Mr. Bud Lortz, Assistant Planning Director Mr. Bruce Phillips, Vice President Water Resources/RBF Consulting 650090/memos/hydro-funds. plc 3 August 25, 2000 Attachment A Mr. Paul Curtis Community Development Director 110 East Main Street Los Gatos, CA 95030 SUBJECT: Los Gatos Storm Drain Master Plan Matrix: Comparison of Original Scope of Work to Additional Work Completed. Dear Mr. Curtis: The following matrix has been prepared at your request and the request of Mr. Larry Perlin, Public Works Director following our meeting of August 16, 2000. This matrix should be used in combination with my letter to you dated July 17, 2000. The matrix compares our original scope of work tasks to the work product that we submitted to you on August 16, 2000, and serves as additional justification for the additional fees requested in our letter to you dated July 17, 2000 and again, discussed in detail during our August 16, 2000 meeting. Los Gatos Storm Drain Masterplan - Additional Work Additional Work Item Original Contract Scope of Work Task Additional Work Justification Discussion Additional Watershed Base Sheet Information / Level of Detail Task 1.2 - Initial Base Sheet Development .The amount of additional data required to be input into the base sheet was substantially more because of the smaller pipe sizes which had to be accommodated and verified. The base sheet information provided by the Town had to be adjusted to fit the mapping for other jurisdictions. Drainage System Inventory Compilation Task 1.3 - Existing Drainage System Facility Inventory The fee for this item was specifically indicated as a budget item since it was unknown the level of effort required to perform the research and the amount of existing data or plan available to be reviewed, including field review. Town Rainfall Pattern Evaluation Task 1.4 - Engineering Design Criteria and Objectives The intent of establishing the design criteria was to review previous hydrology studies or established criteria from surrounding jurisdictional agencies and utilize the existing rainfall values. However, there was no consistency in the data used from previous studies within the Town. In addition, other adjacent established criteria such as the City of San Jose or SCVWD did not provide data for this area. Adequate analysis needed to be performed to justify the rainfall values used for the analysis within the Town and it was shown that there is significant variation within the Town depending upon the location so a suitable method had to be developed to provide a variable solution. Hydrologic Criteria Development Task 1.4 - Engineering Design Criteria & Objectives No consistency could be determined from the previous hydrology studies on file for the Town so more extensive research had to be extended to review other multiple cities and counties in the area. The review indicated older methodologies which had to be brought to a more current standard, so a hybrid criteria was formed which best suited the Town, but was still consistent with other surrounding practices. Watershed Hydrology Analysis Program Software Development Task 2.3 - Baseline Hydrologic Analysis The rational method hydrology was always proposed to utilize existing software, a national rational method program. However, because of the rainfall data and the other hydrologic criteria this could not be directly applied, so spreadsheet software was developed specific for the Town. Additional & Enhanced Detail of Subarea Delineation Task 2.1 - Watershed Delineation More delineation and characterization of watershed parameters required because of the increased level of detail associated with the smaller storm drain pipe sizes evaluated. Masterplan of Drainage Facilities Software Evaluation Program Task 2.4, 2.5, 3.3, & 3.4 - Existing Drainage Facility Hydraulic Capacities, Drainage Deficiency identification, Preliminary Facility Sizing & Hydraulics, Preliminary Construction Cost Estimate The original national rational software proposed for the project could not be applied which would perform the deficiency analysis and estimated facility costs. A custom spreadsheet software program was developed specific to the Town which also included automatic hydraulic analysis of culverts and channels which the other programs would not do, but was needed for the Town because of so many of those type of facilities not originally anticipated. Additional Hydrology Analysis for Enhanced Level of Subarea Detail Task 2.3 & 3.2 - Baseline Hydrologic Analysis, Ultimate Hydrologic Analysis Many more subareas had to be input into the hydrology analysis software because of the vastly increased number of subareas associated with the smaller facilities which were needed to be evaluated. Typically master plan level only evaluates to 36" or 42" diameter. However, for the Town we were evaluating down to 12" diameter pipes. Please give us a call if you have any additional questions or concerns.
