RECOMMENDATIONS
Award a contract for professional services to CBM Consulting for a not-to-exceed amount
of $96,026 for civil engineering services related to the Residential Pavement
Rehabilitation Project,FY 11-12 Areas 3 &5 and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to
execute the agreement.
BACKGROUND
The City is divided into nine pavement management zones and the pavement
maintenance of each zone is executed on a seven year cycle.This year,zones 3 &5 are
included in the program.The funding for this year's program is $3M.Attachment A is a
map of the selected streets for this year's residential pavement rehabilitation project.
Professional engineering services are required to design the plans and contract
documents for the Residential Pavement Rehabilitation program.These services include
field inventory and pavement analysis,civil engineering design,and project
administration.A Request for Proposal (RFP)was sent to five qualified firms to provide
the related engineering services.Proposals from four 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
L-1
CBM Consulting to function as consultants to the City providing civil engineering services
for the Residential Pavement Rehabilitation Project,FY11-12 Areas 3&5.
DISCUSSION
On April 25,2012,staff received proposals from four qualified firms.Each proposal was
scored and ranked for selection.The quality-based selection methodology was used to
evaluate the proposals.After review of the qualifications,staff chose CBM Consulting as
the preferred Civil Engineering designer for the project.CBM's fee was negotiated based
on the scope of services outlined in the RFP.Their proposed fee of $96,026 is
reasonable and consistent with industry standards.
CBM Consulting,has worked with the City satisfactorily on similar type projects in the
past.Staff is confident in CBM's ability to do the work on time and within budget.
The budget appropriation for this project is $3M and is included in the Residential
Pavement Program of the FY 2011-2012 budget.
ALTERNATIVE
An alternative recommendation is to reject CBM's proposal and consider other proposals
received for the project.This alternative could potentially delay the design effort and may
result in delays to the overall construction timeline.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funding for the project is included in the Residential Pavement Program of the FY11-12
budget.The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the professional services
agreernent.

3.Approach and Scope of Work
3.1 PROJECT ApPROACH
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes (RPV)plans to construct improvements to rehabilitate residential
street pavement surfaces encompassing plan areas 3 and 5,in accordance with the City's Pavement
Management Report.While the main focus of the project will be pavement rehabilitation,associated
work will include root pruning,concrete curb,gutter,sidewalk,and driveway repairs,ADA compliant
curb access ramps,traffic and street name sign placementlreplacement.traffic striping and markings,and
protection or replacement of speed humps.CBM will consider all feasible pavement rehabilitation
alternatives including microsurfacing,Cape Seal,ARAM,overlay,and reconstruction methods,and
discuss the merits and cost impact of each alternative.
CBM will recommend a design within the City's proposed project budget of $3 million.We will
complete construction documents by the end of June 2012 in preparation for construction work in
AugustlSeptember 2012.
3.2 SCOPE OF WORK
Existing Conditions
The proposed project area includes approximately 118 residential street segments in plan Areas 3 and 5,
in the northwest and central portions of the City (Arterial segments are not included in the proposed
scope of work).From our preliminary field review for this proposal,it appears that most of the existing
streets in general appear to be in good condition.Most streets will need a Type II slurry seal or
Microsurface application to protect and restore the existing pavement surface.A few streets,including
Via Rivera,may need more substantial work such as an asphalt overlay.CBM will review the types of
asphalt materials available with City staff,including conventional mix,conventional mix with smaller
aggregates,and asphalt rubber hot mix alternatives.Some streets such as Via Victoria may need full
reconstruction.not for condition,but to reduce steep cross sections and crown height,and restore
drivablility and access to adjacent properties.

Utility Notification
CBM recommends notifying existing utility companies of the project so that any planned work can be
completed before construction begins.CBM can provide utility notification services if desired.
Field Inventory I Pavement Analysis
The Project Manager will inspect the streets listed in the PMR to determine:
•Curb &gutter,sidewalk,driveway,cross gutter,root pruning locations
•ADA curb access ramp locations
•Pavement repair locations
•Pavement repair alternatives and preferred recommendation
•Drainage flowline,swale,and asphalt shoulder recommendations
•Locations of traffic calming features
•Signing,striping,pavement markings
•Locations of utility covers
The field inventory will consider pavement condition:possible repair methods;local patch repairs;curb
and gutter repairs (due to ponding andlor root displacement);sidewalk and driveways repairs;curb
access ramp improvements:crack sealing;cross gutter repairs;survey monuments;striping and signing:
traffic signal loop detectors;speed humps;and curb paint.Manholes and valves will be identified and
referenced on the plans.CBM will document our findings and prepare a written report with our
updated recommendations.We will meet with the City to review this document and assist in the
budgeting and decision making process.
Photographs will be taken throughout the project area for use during design and for pre-construction
reference.
Preliminary Design
From our Field Inventory and Pavement Analysis CBM will create a base plan of all proposed streets.
We will rely on Assessor's Maps,City Maps,and available aerial photos to create this base map showing

of the required repairs.
Locations and extent of work will be marked on preliminary plan sets for reference,denoted by address
or other descriptive location.Detailed measurements will be made for curb repairs,etc.as necessary
for darity.Repair extents can be preliminarily marked in the field with white marking paint.CBM will
determine the location and quantity of crack sealing,ac patching,slurry seal,concrete repairs,and tree
root pruning and barrier installation.Location and extent of work will be designated on the plans and in
spreadsheet format.It is assumed that striping and pavement markings will generally be replaced to
existing conditions,modified to meet current California MUTCD requirements.
During the investigation of existing asphalt conditions,CBM will discuss the various possible
rehabilitation strategies with City staff.CBM has successfully implemented alternative cost-saving
construction methods on other similar projects.In order of cost and life effectiveness,the folloWing
options will be presented (from lowest cost to highest):
•Slurry seal type I

•Slurry seal type II
•Slurry seal type II with latex binder
•Cape Seal
•Asphalt Rubber Aggregate Membrane (ARAM)
•Overlay with conventional asphalt
•Overlay with latex modified asphalt
•Overlay with pavement fabric (conventional or fiberglass)
• Puiverization in piace and paving
•Pulverization,cement treated base,and paving
•Full reconstruction
Often we are able to develop pavement methods without resorting to fuli reconstruction,ieading to
significant savings.
Streets anticipated to be siurry sealed or overlaid will be shown in plan view.It is anticipated that street
configurations and dimensions wili be based on existing City plans and assessors data similar to previous
projects.A detailed site survey by a licensed surveyor wili be performed only for streets requiring fuli
reconstruction work.Some limited detailed areas may be provided as necessary for clarification.
It is understood that no streets are anticipated to require fuli reconstruction at this time.If it is
determined that fuli reconstruction is necessary,additional surveying and detailed design work can be
provided at an added cost.Each sheet at I"=40'scale wili contain approximately one thousand feet of
detailed design work.
Upon determination and approval of pavement rehabilitation methods and extents,construction
quantities wili be determined,and an estimated construction cost prepared.Costs will be based upon
comparable unit costs experienced on similar projects within the past year.
CBM will prepare specifications and provisions as necessary to describe the project,include adequate
requirements for the work and performance of the contractor,and to define bid items.Specifications
wili include provisions to conform with the Americans with Disabiiities Act,National Poliution
Discharge Elimination System and Clean Water Act.It is assumed that the City wili prOVide the
necessary environmental documentation,and notification to the SWRQCB.CBM staff is certified to
prepare NPDES documentation and monitor compliance.Specifications wili be delivered to the City in
both hard copy and electronic copy.
Plans.Specifications and Estimate (PS&E)
The project will be shown in plan view on 24"x36"plan sheets,with limited details as necessary for
clarification.Typical sections and notes wili designate pavement type and thickness,materials,and cross
section dimensions.Plans for slurry seal and overlay areas wili be shown at large scale,typically
1"=150'.Street work will be designated by hatching and notes,and wili include local Removal &
Replacement (R&R)areas.Detail plans wili be proVided where needed for clarity.Plan views wili include
notes,symbols,lines,or hatching deSignating pavement;pavement fabric;curb access ramps;curb &
gutter repairs;driveway repairs;sidewalk repair;cross gutter repairs;ac patch repairs;tree root pruning

Full Reconstruction Streets
For this proposal,we are assuming a total of five additional sheets,representing S,OOO lineal feet of
streets,to represent full street reconstruction plan and profile design work.Streets will be
reconstructed to replace failed pavement andlor completely reconstruct streets to lower existing steep
cross grades to standard conditions.
CBM will subcontract surveying services to KDM Meridian.The topographic survey will show existing
street improvements including curb,gutter,edge-of-pavement,driveways,utility covers,and other
surface features.Survey work will include:
•Research record maps,corner records,record centerline,right of way information and survey
data from the County Surveyor's office.
•Recover existing surface centerline monumentation
•Establish coordinate of targets and centerline monumentation
•Topographic survey
Woodfern Drive
CBM will include design for the reconstruction of Woodfern Drive to create a central drainage swale.
Woodfern Drive is a short local residential street located off of Granvia Altamira.It has a crowned
asphalt pavement surface that sheds stormwater to a curb and gutter section along the outer sides of
the street.The street itself slopes downward from the upper end at the Via Sonoma intersection to a
terminal culdesac,at which point surface water enters a catch basin with an 18"concrete pipe,and
thence to a nearby canyon.
To improve drainage conditions for adjacent properties,the City desires to change the street from a
crowned cross section,to a valley type cross section along the lower 300'of street.The central valley
will drain to the existing catch basin at the end of the culdesac.Existing curb and gutter improvements
will remain in place-only the asphalt pavement section will be reconstructed.
CBM will subcontract surveying services to KDM Meridian.The topographic survey will show existing
street improvements including curb,gutter,edge-of-pavement,driveways,utility covers,and other
surface features.The noted fee includes an allowance for replacement of survey monuments after
completion of construction.Survey work will include:
•Research record maps,corner records,record centerline,right of way information and survey
data from the County Surveyor's office.
•Recover existing surface centerline monumentation
•Establish coordinate of targets and centerline monumentation
•Topographic survey
