Discussion: <br />Since this is planned to be a phased program, Staff had to set limits as to the <br />scope of the RFP. Staff is proposing that the proposals conclude after the first <br />intersection project. Future intersection projects will then be assigned to <br />engineering firms based on Council action at that time. <br /> <br />Based on Council’s direction, Staff has developed a Request For Proposal <br />(RFP). It is attached for Council’s review. A summary outline of recommended <br />actions that should be included in the RFP are as follows: <br /> <br /> <br />I. Corridor Planning, Design, & Project Development <br /> <br /> A. Examine Existing Conditions <br />1. Perform an ALTA Land Survey (American Land Title <br />Association - the standard by which all surveys are measured) <br />of the corridor, identify obstacles, impediments, etc. Survey <br />boundary to extend an additional 50 feet on either side of the <br />ROW. <br />2. Prepare topographic maps of the corridor. (Again, develop data <br />for an additional 50 feet beyond the ROW) <br />3. Assess existing corridor drainage issues, identify deficiencies <br />4. Examine existing trailway connections <br />5. Identify any areas in which additional easements would be <br />required based on existing obstructions <br /> <br />B. Design Development <br />1. Prepare a trailway plan <br />2. Prepare a landscape and lighting plan <br />3. Design a concept plan for a gateway sign at the south end of <br />the corridor (on the bluff between KFC & Taco Bell) <br /> <br />C. Funding <br />1. Identify revenue sources <br />2. Identify and apply for possible grants <br /> <br />D. Prioritize Corridor Segments / Public Input <br />1. Conduct neighborhood meetings / provide City Council update <br />reports <br />2. Develop a phasing / implementation plan <br /> <br />E. Project Development <br />1. Develop plans and specifications for the first phase of the <br />corridor <br />2. Obtain approvals: Federal, State, County, Watershed, etc. <br />3. Assist the City in the competitive bidding process <br />4. Provide construction inspection <br />5. Provide as-built plans <br /> <br />
