Re:.Statement of Qualifications
Dear Ron,
Thank you for the opportunity to propose my Statement of Qualifications to perform Public
Works and Engineering services for the City of Rancho Palos Verdes. I am excited to provide
these services for you and am committed to your satisfaction.
Over the past ten years I have assisted the City of Rancho Palos Verdes on a variety of issues,
primarily with the review of designs and studies. While performing these duties I have enjoyed
working with a very professional and dedicated staff, and believe I have earned their respect over
the years.
As I am a sole proprietor,my Statement of Qualifications only involves my services and
experience. If the City assigns work to my finn,it is guaranteed that I will be performing the
work.
Experience
For fourteen years I served as the Public Works Director and City Engineer for the adjacent City
of Palos Verdes Estates. As such I am extremely familiar with all the peculiarities of working on
the Peninsula,whether it be geologic issues,utility company standards and processes, Los
Angeles County requirements,and working with an affluent community with high expectations.
More specifically,I managed the City's Public Works,Planning, Code Enforcement,and
Building and Safety Departments. I developed and managed Capital Improvement Programs,
including Pavement Management System, Sewer Master Plan,and Storm Drain Master plan.
Rigg Consulting
Additionally I provided direction to and prepared staff reports for the City's Planning
Commission,Parldands Committee,.Traffic Safety Committee,and City Council.
Prior to working with the City of Palos Verdes Estates I primarily worked for design engineering
companies for eleven years, My design experience gives nye an added ability to understand that
the challenges of design go far beyond simple code compliance and helps me guide projects to
become better through the review process. Additionally I managed major public and private
developments,including residential,commercial, industrial, and infrastructure projects. Projects
include sewer,water, and storm drain design and construction,master planning for a 1000-acre
subdivision,facilities at two major college campuses,and a 24-story office building. I have been
responsible for managing a team.comprised of up to ten engineers and was responsible for
creating both design budgets and construction estimates,and for the administration of QA/QC
procedures. I was published in ENR and Civil Engineering magazines for assistance in obtaining
FEMA funds for a project at Cal State Northridge

• Public Works Director
• City Engineer
• Senior Engineer
• Plan.Checker
• Project/Construction Engineer
• Public Works Contracting

• AB 939 implementation.
• NPDES Review
My experience in development review includes review starting at the entitlement stage and
Which.runs through construction document preparation,construction,and inspection. As I am
not only a Registered Civil Engineer but also a Certified Planner, I am sensitive to the needs of
not only the Engineering Department but also conformance with and sensitivity to the needs of
the Planning Department.
