PALM SAS �y 4 V N x x hoex e� C u[a• gtIFOR ,P City Council Staff Report November 14, 2007 CONSENT CALENDAR Subject: APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH DOKKEN ENGINEERING FOR THE BOGERT TRAIL BRIDGE REHABILITATION, FEDERAL PROJECT BHLO 5282 (026), CITY PROJECT 07-03 From: David H. Ready, City Manager Initiated by: Public Works and Engineering Department SUMMARY The Public Works and Engineering Department applied to the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) for federal Highway Bridge Program funding to widen and retrofit the existing Bogert Trail bridge over the Palm Canyon Wash. Caltrans approved the City's federal grant request, and awarded the City federal funding for this project. With an estimated total cost of $4.9 Million, the Highway Bridge Program will provide the project with 88.53% funding — or over $4.3 Million. Following the City's authorization to proceed from Caltrans, who administers the City's federal grant funds, the City solicited proposals from consultants for environmental and civil engineering design services for this project. After a competitive consultant selection process, the City selected Dokken Engineering and negotiated the proposed contract services agreement, RECOMMENDATION: 1) Approve Agreement No. with Dokken Engineering in the amount of $610,545.00 for environmental and civil engineering design services related to the Bogert Trail Bridge Rehabilitation, Federal Project BHLO 5282 (026), City Project 07-03; and 2) Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents. STAFF ANALYSIS: The Bogert Trail bridge crossing over the Palm Canyon Wash was originally constructed in 1982. This bridge, as with all other City bridges, is inspected periodically by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), Structure Maintenance and Investigations Division, to ensure the bridge is not structurally deficient and to identify Item 2 . E ._ City Council Staff Report November 14, 2007- Page 2 Bogert Trail Bridge Rehabilitation (CP 07-03) any needed maintenance. The last several Caltrans Bridge Inspection Reports noted that the bridge abutment bearing pads were delaminating (being squeezed out from under the abutment) and other miscellaneous minor repairs. The miscellaneous bridge repair work was originally included as part of the work of City Project 97-20. However, following the City's design consultant's initial assessment of the bridge repairs identified by Caltrans, it was their opinion that bridge retrofit work to widen the bridge abutment would be a more appropriate solution. It was recommended that the City pursue grant funds through Caltrans to perform the bridge retrofit work. A federal program, the Highway Bridge Program, or HBP, provides funding for bridge rehabilitation or replacement. However, there are clear criteria for when HBP funds are eligible for a given bridge. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) uses the following criteria to establish HBP funding eligibility: the Sufficiency Rating (SR) and a status flag indicating whether a bridge is Structurally Deficient (SD) or Functionally Obsolete (FO). The National Bridge Inventory is used for preparing the selection list of bridges both on and off of Federal-aid highways. Highway bridges considered structurally deficient (SD) or functionally obsolete (FO) and with a sufficiency rating (SR) of 80 or less are used for the selection list. Those bridges appearing on the list with a sufficiency rating (SR) of less than 50.0 are eligible for replacement or rehabilitation, while those with a sufficiency rating (SR) of 80.0 or less are eligible for rehabilitation. The variables in the equations for SR, SD, and FO come from the Caltrans Bridge Inspection Report. In order to receive HBP funds, Caltrans is required to perform these inspections. As discussed above, bridges that are structurally deficient (SD); or functionally obsolete (FO) and the sufficiency rating (SR) is less than or equal to 80, are considered deficient by FHWA and are compiled into an "Eligible Bridge List" (EBL). This LBL is used by FHWA to calculate the State's annual HBP apportionment and for determining eligibility for traditional replacement and rehabilitation projects. It was not until the Caltrans bridge inspection performed on September 29, 2003, that values for different variables of the structure condition for the Bogert Trail bridge were identified, classifying the structure as functionally obsolete (FO) for the first time, with a sufficient rating (SR) less than 80. Subsequently, the Bogert Trail bridge was identified on the FHWA Eligible Bridge List (EBL), making retrofit work of the bridge eligible for HBP funding. It is important to note that all of the prior Caltrans Bridge Inspection Reports have determined that the bridge remains structurally sound. Following its eligibility for HBP funding, City staff pursued funding to retrofit the structure and to widen the bridge from its current width of 26 feet to 40 feet to match the existing width of Bogert Trail, and to add a new sidewalk on the north side of the bridge. A formal request was submitted to Caltrans on February 17, 2005. However, the City's request was lost by Caltrans and a subsequent submittal was made on June 21, 2006. 2 City Council Staff Report November 14, 2007- Page 3 Bogert Trail Bridge Rehabilitation (CP 07-03) Finally, on December 13, 2006, Caltrans authorized the City to proceed with the preliminary engineering (design) phase for this project. Subsequently, staff prepared a Request for Proposals (RFP) for environmental and civil engineering design services to solicit consultants for this project. The RFP was published and made available to firms through the City's Division of Procurement and Contracting, and by the August 17, 2007, deadline, proposals from the following firms were received: Dokken Engineering; Folsom, CA Lim & Nascimento Engineering; San Bernardino, CA Following review of the proposals by a Selection Committee, a clear consensus of Dokken Engineering as the top ranked firm was made. The Selection Committee, in accordance with federal rules regarding consultant selection process, determined that final interviews were not necessary based on its clear determination of a top ranked firm. The selection was based on Dokken Engineering's thorough understanding of the project area, federal processes related to environmental clearances and regulatory agency coordination. Federal rules require that when contract services agreements exceed $250,000, a pre- award audit of the selected consultant must be performed. Following contract negotiations, staff prepared the proposed contract services agreement for environmental and civil engineering design services with Dokken Engineering in an amount not to exceed $610,545. It should be noted that the selected consultant originally submitted a contract fee of $871,970 — City staff negotiated a reduction of $261,425 to the final contract fee. The contract was submitted to the Caltrans Department of Audits and Investigations for review, and on November 2, 2007, Caltrans authorized staff to proceed with award of the proposed contract. Matthew Salveson, a Principal of the firm, will be the Project Manager and coordinate all professional services for the City. FISCAL IMPACT: This project, which has a total estimated cost of $4,888,950, is funded in part (88.53%) by federal Highway Bridge Program funds, with the remaining portion (11.47%) funded by local Measure A funds. The proposed contract amount of $610,646 for environmental and civil engineering design services will be funded by $540,515 of federal funds from account 261-4491-50244, and by $70,030 of local Measure A funds from account 134 4498-50244. 3 City Council Staff Report November 14, 2007- Page 4 Bogert Trail Bridge Rehabilitation (CP 07-03) SUBMITTED, 0- - L =z�, -mgC J)o/l David J.
