Hawthorne Blvd.Pedestrian Safe Bus Stop Linkage Project and authorize the Mayor
and City Clerk to execute the agreement.
BACKGROUND
As part of the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA)
2007 Call for Projects,$1,117,000 of Federal funding was awarded to the City of
Rancho Palos Verdes for the Hawthorne Blvd.Pedestrian Safe Bus Stop Linkage
Project.The $1,396,250 project consists of the design and construction of sidewalk and
parkway landscaping on both sides of Hawthorne Blvd.from Crest Road to Palos
Verdes Drive West,linking 11 bus stops.This safety improvement and accessibility
project will provide safe,all-weather access for pedestrians and transit users.
Professional services are needed for the design phase of the project.Staff solicited
proposals from professional civil engineering firms to provide these services.Proposals
from three firms were received and evaluated using the Quality-Based Selection (QBS)
process,which entails a selection process based on qualifications and performance.
As a result of the evaluation process,staff is recommending the professional services of
Terramar Consulting Engineering,Inc.to function as consultants to the City providing
civil engineering and topgraphic services for the Hawthorne Blvd.Pedestrian Safe Bus
Stop Linkage Project.

DISCUSSION
The Hawthorne Blvd.Pedestrian Safe Bus Stop Linkage Project will be funded by
Federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ)funds and general funds.The
project funding is outlined below:

$243,650
$279,250
$178,000
$1,218,250
$1,396,250
Completion of this project will result in Hawthorne Blvd.being accessible to pedestrians
and persons with disabilities at all intersections from Crest Road to Palos Verdes Drive
West.
Staff solicited proposals from several consulting firms.Three sealed proposals were
received and evaluated by a staff.Each proposal was scored and ranked for selection.
The quality-based selection evaluation includes project approach,proposed schedule,
innovative techniques,experience in Rancho Palos Verdes,proposed key project
members and availability of staff.After review of the qualifications,staff chose Terramar
Consulting Engineering,Inc.as the preferred civil engineering firm.Terramar's fee was
negotiated based on the scope of services outlined in the RFP.Their proposed hourly
rates and associated fees are reasonable and consistent with industry standards.
CONCLUSION
Adopting staff's recommendation will allow the City to proceed with design of the
Hawthorne Blvd.Pedestrian Safe Bus Stop Linkage Project.
ALTERNATIVES
1)Not proceed with staff's recommendation and consider professional services
from other civil engineering firms.This alternative may result in a delay in starting
the project and increased costs for design services.
2)Not proceed with the project.This alternative may result in jeopardizing future
Federal funding.The City entered into an agreement with Caltrans for use of the
Federal funding and not proceeding may violate the terms of the agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funding for the project is included in the FY 11-12 Capital Improvement Program
budget.Therefore,adopting staff's recommendation will not result in any impacts.
