FOR SURVEY AND DESIGN SERVICES FOR THE CONVENTION CENTER TRIANGLE PARCEL FROM: David H. Ready, Executive Director BY: Community and Economic Development Department SUMMARY This action is to approve an agreement with DMC Design Group, Inc. for Professional Surveying and Engineering Design Services for the Convention Center Triangle parcel, boundary wall and Plaza Villa Condominium driveway entry relocation design. RECOMMENDATION: 1. Adopt Resolution No. , approving AN AGREEMENT WITH DMC DESIGN GROUP, INC. FOR PROFESSIONAL SURVEYING AND ENGINEERING DESIGN SERVICES FOR THE CONVENTION CENTER TRIANGLE PARCEL, BOUNDARY WALL, AND PLAZA VILLA CONDOMINIUM DRIVEWAY ENTRY RELOCATION, IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $75,000. 2. Authorize the Executive Director to execute all necessary documents. STAFF ANALYSIS: The Convention Center was redeveloped in 2002 to increase the capacity of the building and take advantage of spectacular mountain views from new front doors after the center's expansion. In order to prevent new development from blocking this view, the City acquired a 1.77 acre vacant parcel across the street by subleasing it from the master lessee. This triangle shaped parcel is located at the southwest corner of Amado Road and Calle Alvarado (APN 508-051-055). The subject parcel is vacant, zoned for residential use and adjacent to the Plaza Villa Condominiums. The Agency is developing a plan for the parcel, which could serve as an open-air plaza for the ITEM NO.M?o City Council Staff Report (September 19, 2007)--Page 2 (Convention Center Triangle Parcel) Convention Center, a sculpture park, attractive landscaping, or the site for a small administrative building. To implement this project, professional surveying and engineering design services are required to establish the actual boundaries of the parcel with the condos, relocate an entry to the Plaza Villa Condominiums from the existing entrance on Calle Alvarado to a new entrance on Andreas Road and to design a block wall with a pedestrian gate to separate the condos from the triangle parcel. Future development of the parcel will be in a later design phase. In coordination with the Procurement Division, a Request for Proposals (RFP 13-07) for Professional Surveying and Engineering Design Services was posted to the City's website and Notices were sent to fourteen (14) firms on June 12, 2007. Four (4) proposals were received by the July 10th due date from the following firms: David Evans & Associates, DMC Design Group, Inc., Stantec Consulting Inc., and Norris- Repke Engineers & Land Surveyors. Under the RFP process for professional services, firms are evaluated and ranked based on multiple criteria and then cost is negotiated. David Evans & Associates was the highest ranked firm, however cost negotiations were not successful and staff entered into negotiations with DMC Design Group, Inc-, the second highest ranked firm, which resulted in a negotiated cost that is mutually acceptable and within the department's budget. The design cost from both firms was higher than Staff had estimated. Both of the firms looked at the design issues related to the driveway relocation, the coordination with the Convention Center, the condominium board, and the Hard Rock Hotel, as well as the open-ended nature of the wall- and landscape design and included that in their cost proposal. Prior to commencing the construction of these improvements, the Phase II design —which should be the ultimate use of the site — should begin.

Many of these successfully completed projects were completed under challenging and adverse conditions, requiring a complete understanding of State and local agency design standards, criteria and approval processes. Our expert knowledge of local agency policies and guidelines has proven invaluable in producing project requirements on time and within budget. DMC Design Group has an extensive list of satisfied clients we have provided these services to, including, most recently, the cities of Palm Springs, Moreno Valley, Lake Forest and Calimesa, the Niguel Shores Community Association, the Fire Access Maintenance District No. I of Indian Wells, the Los Angeles Unified School District, the Desert Sands Unified School District and the Counties of Riverside, Los Angeles and San Bernardino. Headquartered in Corona, California, DMC Design Group is conveniently located within forty-five (45) minutes of Palm Springs, California. From our office location, we can effectively provide our design services to the City of Palm Springs, as we have in the past for the City of Palm Springs and many other public agencies and special districts throughout southern California. Mission Statement As professional civil engineers, surveyors, designers, technicians and managers at DMC Design Group, our mission is simple — we want to provide a cost-effective solution that filly meets our Client's project objectives on time, within budget and within allowable and safe design parameters. Simply put, our mission is to provide "a total engineered solution." DMC Design Group is especially proud of its significant achievements and strives to maintain this level of quality engineering service on all of our projects, regardless of size or client. DMC Design Group's source of pride is based upon the following: • DMC has extensive experience providing direct support to the staff of our clients in the development of project concept themes and designs of complex municipal improvement projects involving constrained schedules, multi-disciplined teams, reviewing boards, commissions, site developers and the general public; • A core project team of highly skilled and experienced professionals qualified to address all aspects of engineered surveys, wall designs and landscape improvements, including topographic survey, aerial and right-of-way mapping, preparation of comprehensive structural studies, alternative landscape concepts, utility coordination and the designs and preparation of construction documents for wall, landscape, irrigation, lighting and entry improvements; • A track record of providing quality engineering services and products through a comprehensive and thorough value engineered approach as can be demonstrated by our list of satisfied clients. DMC Design Group's comprehensive project management systems are flexible and can readily be tailored to suit the requirements of this project and the needs of the City, On many assignments, "fast tracking" has been used to achieve an early start on construction—with resultant savings—while maintaining a high standard of quality and integrity of design. 0©OQ�3 1 OESIQN GRo STATEMF.W OF O UAL IFICA(IONS Most important, however, is the fact that many of DMC's key personnel, including the assigned Project Manager/Project Engineer, have worked directly for public agencies in the past and fully understand the need to become an extension of the City's staff. From its previous experience on municipal improvement projects, DMC has learned the importance of integrating all aspects of its project management and design support team with those of City staff and will strive to develop a seamless team approach in meeting and exceeding project specific objectives and goals. Reliability DMC Design Group was founded on the commitment of giving individualized attention to our clients_ Our commitment is based upon the belief that a total engineered solution is the result of a team effort between the client and the consultant, developed through proactive leadership, effective communication and responsive actions. This core belief creates a very customer oriented approach to our projects and places our clients as our most treasured resource. Our goal is to satisfy our client's needs with cost-effective total engineered solutions that fully meet all mission objectives within allowable and safe design parameters. In order to provide this level of client satisfaction, we become fully knowledgeable of our client's requirements and needs, while at the same time, DMC makes a strong commitment to produce error-free work, utilize a continuous improvement process, concentrate on prevention, rather than correction, and recognize the importance quality control has on the success of a project.

Our Project Team also received and thoroughly reviewed Addendums No. 1 and 2 of the RFP_ Members of our Project Team conducted numerous site visits of the project site between June ?5, 2007 and July 10, 2007 and reviewed available record information, including Assessor Parcel Maps and aerial photos of the site. Specific questions regarding the project scope and parameters were discussed with ivir. Craig Gladders, Procurement and Contracting Manager for the City of Palm Springs. The Palm Springs Convention Center was expanded and redeveloped in 2002 to.increase tite capacity of the building and take advantage of spectacular mountain views from new front doors after the Center's expansion. In order to prevent new development from blocking this view, the'City acquired a 1.77-acre vacant triangular parcel across the street by subleasing it from the master lessee. This parcel(APN 508- 051-055) is located at the southwest comer of Amado Road and Calle Alvarado. The parcel is currently vacant and is zoned for residential use. The land use immediately to the west and adjacent to the parcel is also residential and developed (Plaza Villa Condominiums), The Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Palm Springs is developing a plan forthe parcel,which could serve as an open-air plaza for the Convention Center, a sculpture park with attractive landscaping or the site for a small administrative building. It is the City's intent to adequately delineate the boundary of the triangular parcel and to separate the parcel from the Plaza Villa Condominiums through the installation of a block wall between the condominium development and the parcel, and to relocate the roadway entrance to the Plaza Villa Condominiums from Calle Alvarado to Andreas Road. Specifically,the City anticipates the Consultant to design and, where applicable, prepare conceptual plans and final construction documents (plans, specifications and estimates)for the following improvements ❑ Boundary Survey—A professional survey of the site is required to establish the actual boundaries of the parcel with adjacent parcels and to determine how they are different from the physical boundaries established by the Plaza Villa Condominiums (i.e. existing walls, landscaping, etc.). The entire condominium project and triangle parcel were part of a single master lease (PSL-236). The condominium project (Tract 17082) was built in throe (3) phases, with a fourth phase (the triangular piece) to be build at some future date. with the separate sublease interest and different use of the triangle,the lease boundaries do not match the physical separations on the site. ❑ Boundary Wall— A new decorative masonry block wall is proposed along the boundary between the Parcel and the development to the west of the parcel (Plaza Villa Condominiums). The wall will include a pedestrian gate tied to the condominium owners' key system to maintain secured access for the residents of Plaza Villa Coudommiums. ❑ Landscape, Irrigation and Lighting lmproveinenta—Landscape, irrigation and lighting improvements Are proposed in front of the wall. The landscaping shall consist of drought tolerant plant material and native plant species of the desert environment with types of plautipg consistent with the types of Planting used at the Convention Center. The irrigation system shall be a drip system consistent with drought tolerant plaint material. Lighting shall be aesthetically themed'to highlight and accentuate the wall and landscape features in front of➢L ❑ Relocation of the Roadway.Entrance to the Plaza Villa Condomfnirans -- The existing ctloyi to the Plaza Villa,Condominiums off North Calle Alvarado would be relocated to Andreas Road. The concept of the relocated entry would remain consistent with its existing theme, but would he coordinated with the proposed Hard Rock Hotel parking structure entry improvements to avoid potential traffic conflicts. A new keypad system for vehicular entry access is to be included. 10 oestG,v as Q a000z$ SCOPE 01 SFRTICE5 o Miscellcrrreous Services—Coordination with existing underground and overhead utilities necessary to facilitate the proposed improvements. The overall project is to be completed in following three(3)phases: Phase i -Preliminary Design Concept; Phase 2—Final Design(Plans, Specifications and Estimates); Phase 3—Construction Administration(to be added ar City's options). It is also understood the Consultant will be required to attend various City meetings to discuss and finalize preliminary concept drawings and designs. The Consultant will be expected to present preliminary concepts, incorporate comments and revisions received at the meetings, and present final concepts and drawings. The City anticipates the Consultant to provide the following project coordination; t. Coordinate with City staff_ Plaza Villa Condominiums,developers of the proposed Hard hock Hotel and local utilities to determine project parameters and constraints. wall and driveway construction, operation and maintenance issues,and collect necessary data/record information; 2 Prepare and present proposed concept plans to City staff, the "Project Team", the Architectural Advisory Committee, the Planning Commission, and the City Council, as may be required, using appropriate visual aids, including maps, slides and handouts, and revise concepts as required based upon comments received at these meetings; 3. Perform project management and project schedule maintenance to ensure that the project timeline is adhered to and deadlines are met. Finally, it is understood the design services required to comply with RFP 13-07 will be paid from iocal redevelopment funds, not federal or slate funds. Therefore, prevailing wages and DBE requirements are not applicable to this project MA'NAGEMECT PLAN DMC's project approach is based upon a proactive Project Management Plan that originates with our Proposal and is tinalized and initiated with the Notice to Proceed_ In summary, our Management Plan will communicate to each member of the Consultant Team the organization and communication procedures, task descriptions and assignments,schedule requirements, cost and resource budgets, project data and design guidelines. One of the key steps in preparing a useful Management Plan is the development of a detailed Project Work Plan- To develop this plan, a series of interface meetings will take place among the members of the Consultant, Team to clearly identify,the multiple activities required to complete this project. These activities will include not only specific project tasks, but also agency reviews and approvals, quality control processes and milestones for deliverables. Assignment of responsibilities for each activity will also be designated, as generally shown on the proposed Organizational Chart for rhis project. Modifications to the Organizational Chart will be made,as needed,to strengthen the Consultant Team's ability to immediate project needs and as identification of specific requirements are identified, In developing this detailed Project Work Plan, many of the potential project constraints are identified,ways to expedite this project are developed, and the avenues of communication among team members are increased at this initial stage of the project. The ability to clearly communicate information,such as scope, cost,schedules;and technical matters,is a vital element of any project, A coordinated effort among the various team members is required to aabieve an integrated program that, in turn, is necessary to deliver quality services within strict budgetary and time constraints. Coordination requires effective and frequent communication among Consultant Team members. P=GN GliOU 000029 RCOPL OFRERVICCS Key to the entire Management Plan and subsequent success of this project is the role of the Project Manager. The Project Manager is responsible for oversight and coordination of all project activities, meshing the technical requirements through a proactive, hands-on management approach. The Project Manager is the sole contact person between DMC and the City, interfacing with all City departments as well as with outside utility agencies. The Project Manager will be responsible for project documentation, including scheduling, preparation of agendas and meeting notes, and assignment of action items for meetings between City staff,sub-consultants and other agencies. QUALITY CONTROL Once the final work plan is completed and final Consultant '['earn assignments communicated to each Consultant Team Member, DMC will develop a defined Quality Control (QC) Plan specific to this project. The QC Plan will guide the Consultant Team in the management and implementation of quality throughout the life of this project, not to merely"check it"at the end of this project. The preparation and implementation of the QC Plan will be integrated into the work plan and a specific task and will be applied continuously and at strategic points in the work process by Consultant Temn Members. The QC Pfau will include procedures for both administrative and technical controls, such as project files, routing of correspondence,checking/back-checking procedures,design notebooks,check lists, eta To ensure the process is developed and implemented by the Consultant Team. DMC will prepare a written copy of the QC Plan to the City during the initial implementation stages of the work plan.

This Resource Matrix will be used to monitor,DMC's costs. Each momb, the matrix will be updated to show actual hours expended for each task. The updated Matrix w ll be provided to the City with the monthly invoice for verification of effort Should a task begin to exceed the estimated costs originally assigned to thal task,as outlined in the Matrix, DMC will review the remaining effort required to complete the task to determine if there are sufficient resources within the task to complete it. Should it appear there are not enough resources to complete that task, DMC will review resources remaining for other tasks to determine if surplus resources earl be applied to the deficient resources. It is DMC's goal to maintain the project costs as outlined in this proposal and DIvfC will make every effort to keep its projected costs within the limits of this proposal througb this monthly review process. However,should additional services outside those described in our proposal be required of DMC and there are not adequate resources within the existing fee structure as outlined in the Resource Matrix, DMC will request additional fees for these services. We look forward to working with the City of Palm Springs and would very much like to discuss providing our survey and engineering services on the proposed Convention Center triangle parcel, boundary wall and entry relocation improvements.
