As you may be aware, under Title II of the ADA, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes is required to have a current Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan. Title II entities, such as the City of Rancho Palos Verdes may be at significant risk for claims and litigations by not having a current plan. Also, recent inquiries and enforcement activities by the DOJ, CalTrans and HUD have shown that Cities can be at risk of losing or not being able to receive their state and federal pass through funding should you not have a current plan in place. DAC has extensive experience in the evaluation of program and facility accessibility and provides a full continuum of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and accessibility services for public entities, such as the City of Rancho Palos Verdes. Founded as a California corporation and woman owned business in 1998, DAC has provided services for the past 20 years to assist public entities to comply and implement accessibility requirements in accordance with the ADA, Title 24 of the California Building Code, Section 504 and related federal, state and local disability-related nondiscrimination laws and regulation. DAC has conducted over 19,000 building inspections, surveyed thousands of parks and playgrounds, thousands of miles of sidewalks and performed hundreds of programmatic reviews and self-evaluations to study the accessibility of programs, services, activities, events and related areas. DAC has a comprehensive understanding of applicable standards, regulations and requirements under Title II of the ADA, California Building Code and related state accessibility standards. DAC has completed over a hundred similar studies. DAC has also worked on a project for the Department of Transportation in Washington, D.C. to develop a pilot study for potential duplication of methodologies in other geographic areas, using tools and standards for public rights-of-way accessibility reviews by means of a software program to update and manage the ADA public rights-of-way transition plan. DAC is providing recommendations for best practices and technologies for the DOT. To provide for easy management of the transition plan and documentation of compliance efforts, DAC has developed web-based software called DACTrak. DACTrak is a powerful tool to manage and update the transition plan, project costs and document progress. Custom reports can be printed in a variety of formats. Respectfully submitted by Barbara Thorpe, President A-5 Disability Access Consultants Proposal to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes for ADA Consulting Services 3 FIRM ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF QUALIFICATIONS Since Disability Access Consultants was founded as a woman owned California Corporation in 1998, DAC has provided services for the past 20 years to assist public entities to comply and implement accessibility requirements in accordance with the ADA, Title 24 of the California Building Code, Section 504 and related federal, state and local disability-related nondiscrimination laws and regulation. DAC has extensive experience in the evaluation of program and facility accessibility and provides a full continuum of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and accessibility services for public entities, such as the City of Rancho Palos Verdes. As our founder, Barbara Thorpe, worked with a public entity for 20 years as the ADA Coordinator, 504 Coordinator, and Director of Planning and Compliance, she has extensive experience working with individuals with disabilities and organizations representing individuals with disabilities. In addition, she has collaborated with individuals with disabilities and organizations that represent individuals with disabilities in a facilitative manner that has benefited city governments during her work with other municipalities. Barbara and the DAC team members have demonstrated the ability to engage and interact with individuals and organizations to assist with the prioritization, long range planning and implementation of the ADA plan. DAC has a team of more than 25 staff, with our Facility Team Leader Michael Boga holding CASp Certificate #152, dedicated to assisting public entities, such as the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, with ADA compliance. DAC has a comprehensive understanding of applicable standards, regulations and requirement under Title II of the ADA, California Building Code and related state accessibility standards. DAC has a reputation to being responsive to the client’s needs, providing on-time project completion within budgets. DAC has a proven track record for comprehensive experience in conducting ADA Self Evaluations and Transition Plans, implementation and related services. Other public entities for which DAC has provided similar services include Fair Oaks Recreation and Park District, Padre Dam Water District, Hayward Parks and Recreation, 15 California Fairs, 160 California public school districts, and several large Joint Power Authorities and insurance carriers for groups of public entities. DAC is currently assisting the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (CJPIA) members, of which the City of Rancho Palos Verdes belongs, to assist members with ADA compliance at a discounted rate. DAC has been assisting several Joint Power Authorities since 2000 and currently provides updates, consultation, plan reviews and expert witness services. DAC has worked with public entities of all sizes, from one site to 506 sites. Members of the DAC team have also served as expert witnesses to assist public entities to defend their current practices and ADA plan. DAC has only served on the side to assist public entities to defend their practices and plan and has never assisted with litigation against a public entity. Our mission statement and philosophy embrace the enhancement and assistance to our clients to build an ADA accessibility plan while documenting previous and current compliance methods. Over the 20 years of serving our clients, DAC has demonstrated financial stability, staff stability and has a no claims insurance record. DAC provides a full continuum of professional services that include, but are not limited to: • Facility inspections • Self-evaluations for ADA and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act • Policy review and development • Transition plans • Public rights-of-way surveys • Consultation • Accessibility compliance intake and management software – DACTrak A-6 Disability Access Consultants Proposal to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes for ADA Consulting Services 4 • DACTrak training to conduct your own inspections • Expert witness services • Plan reviews • ADA Plan implementation assistance and consultation • Outdoor developed and recreational areas (pools, parks, trails, camping areas) • NPSI playground safety inspections • ADA Playground inspections DAC utilizes the appropriate standard(s) for the inspection that may include, but is not limited to: • ADA 2010 Standards • California Building Code • ADA-ABA • UFAS • ANSI • Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act • Outdoor developed and recreational standards • National Playground Safety Institute (NPSI) standards • PROWAG – Federal Public Rights-of-way Guidelines • Federal Highway Administration’s Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) Our firm stands out in the public entity arena due to proven performance in a wide range of services, from programmatic and policy reviews, facility inspections, transition plans, consultation, plan reviews and expert witness services. We excel at providing a comprehensive assessment of our clients’ current status by preparing a study of all areas related to accessibility in different departments to document ongoing compliance. Innovative Tools, Strategies and Best Practices Based on experience and knowledge of the accessibility field and best practices, DAC continues to develop innovative methodologies, easy to use ADA management tools, and proven, successful strategies for evaluating programs, services, activities, events, facilities, parks and public rights-of-way. DACTrak was developed by DAC for the purpose of easy and useful importing and management of the accessibility data collected in the field. DACTrak is interactive web-based software and is not an enhanced Excel spread sheet. The ability to collect, compile, analyze and use report data in a practical format was one of the driving forces to develop the DACTrak intake and management software. Our DAC accessibility management software, DACTrak, provides our clients with a powerful management tool to document compliance, project costs, print custom reports and record progress. DACTrak is not an Excel spreadsheet, but actual software that has been developed by our company to assist with the imple mentation and documentation of the City’s ADA plan and provides photographs of as-is site conditions, which has proved to be valuable documentation. Findings and recommendations, in addition to other data are preloaded into the DACTrak software. As DAC owns and licenses the DACTrak software, we can make custom modifications for our clients. The DAC team members proposed for the City of Rancho Palos Verdes project have worked together on similar projects. A few projects are listed below. References and a description for the scope of work are provided for several of the following recent California projects: • City of Bakersfield • City of Banning • City of Benicia • City of Bishop • City of Carlsbad • City of Carpinteria • City of Cathedral City A-7 Disability Access Consultants Proposal to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes for ADA Consulting Services 5 • City of Claremont • City of Clovis • City of Cudahy • City of Cypress • City of Del Mar • City of Downey • City of Elk Grove • City of Fountain Valley • City of Glendale • City of Goleta • City of Grass Valley • City of Hemet • City of Huntington Beach • City of La Mesa • City of La Quinta • City of Laguna Woods • City of Lakewood • City of Lincoln City • City of Los Alamitos • City of Manteca • City of Menifee • City of Modesto • City of Moreno Valley • City of Newport Beach • City of Oakdale • City of Oroville • City of Palm Springs • City of Palos Verdes Estates • City of Paramount • City of Pismo Beach • City of Poway • City of Red Bluff • City of San Clemente • City of San Dimas • City of San Gabriel • City of San Jose • City of San Juan Capistrano • City of San Luis Obispo • City of Santa Fe Springs • City of Santa Monica • City of Shafter • City of Tustin • City of Wasco • City of Waterford • City of Willows • County of Butte • County of Calaveras • County of Glenn • County of Kern A-8 Disability Access Consultants Proposal to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes for ADA Consulting Services 6 • County of Marin • County of Okaloosa • County of Placer • County of San Luis Obispo • County of Santa Clara • County of Shasta • County of Solano • County of Tehama • Desert Recreation District • Fair Oaks Recreation and Park District • Town of Paradise DACTrak Accessibility Management Software The accessibility management software is included at no cost to the City for the first year as the cost is paid by the CJPIA. If the City decides to continue with the use of the web-based management software after the initial year, the cost is $2,000 and includes unlimited seat licenses. The use of the DACTrak software includes the storage and maintenance of the City data. If the City decides not to continue to use the web-based DACTrak Accessibility Management System to maintain, update and document compliance of the ADA plan, the data can be transferred to an Excel spreadsheet or an alternate format. DAC has found that usable and easy to manage software (instead of Excel spreadsheets) is imperative to maintaining and updating the ADA plan. Categories can be customized and findings organized as demonstrated in the screen shots of the DACTrak software included in the supplemental materials Appendix. PROJECT TEAM STAFFING AND RESUMES Disability Access Consultants (DAC) has a dedicated team of twenty professionals with backgrounds in administrative leadership roles with public entities, construction and code enforcement.

Jennie Grover - Director of Operations Jennie draws on her experience in technical writing to provide leadership and management of the production and technical writing team, organizing the completion of technical reports, as well as managing production schedules, staff and timelines. SUBCONSULTANTS DAC does not use subcontractors or subconsultants, as DAC prefers team members that have direct accountability and training by DAC to provide a seamless project delivery and interaction with City staff. SCOPE OF WORK Disability Access Consultants (DAC) understands that the City is seeking a qualified firm to inspect, evaluate and prepare reports identifying potential barriers in the City-owned buildings, parks, parking lots and public rights-of-way. A-10 Disability Access Consultants Proposal to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes for ADA Consulting Services 8 The inspections will identify barriers or potential barriers in accordance with applicable Federal and State accessibility standards and regulations. In addition, it is understood that DAC will assist the City in developing a schedule for barrier removal over time in a cost effective and realistic manner, using programmatic solutions where available. In order to successfully complete the project activities in a timely manner, DAC will work closely and collaboratively with the City of Rancho Palos Verdes without imposing unnecessary interruptions or burdens to City staff. During the past 20 years, Barbara Thorpe and her team have developed ongoing working relationships with City and County governments and have worked diligently to have clear lines of communication. DAC has the extensive knowledge and experience with all Federal and State regulations during the past 20 years in business, that includes, but is not limited to the ADA up to and including the current 2010 American’s Disability Act Standards (ADAS), 28 Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) 35, Title 24 California Building Standards Code, Title II of the ADA, PROWAG, MUTCD, Section 504 and related Federal and State Standards and Regulations. Value Added Items to Enhance the Project at No Additional Cost or that Provide a Cost Savings In addition to the above understandings and confirmations, DAC has found through its experience of working with City and County Governments and Joint Power Authorities, such as the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority, of which the City of Rancho Palos Verdes is a member, that certain other items enhance the level of success and implementation of ADA Transition Plans and Self-Evaluations by public entities. The California JPIA (CJPIA) offers a discounted price to its members that has been negotiated with DAC. The CJPIA is also assisting members, such as the City, with costs for selected services for ADA compliance. The use of DACTrak by City staff to conduct surveys at facilities, process reports and manage the information to implement and document the plan may assist the City to more efficiently and effectively achieve the City’s project objectives and will provide longevity to the plan. As an additional value at no cost, DAC provides at least one photograph of each noncompliant accessible item or element, a record number for reference, estimated costs and other features to assist with the implementation of the Transition Plan. To provide for easy management of the transition plan and documentation of compliance efforts, DAC has developed web-based software called DACTrak. DACTrak is a powerful tool to manage and update the accessibility plan, project costs and document progress. Custom reports can be easily prepared, printed and saved in a variety of formats. Disability Access Consultants (DAC) includes the following additions at no additional cost: • Noncompliant findings and recommendations are included in the DACTrak software • One or more photographs of each noncompliant finding are included • Additional photographs can be viewed of the noncompliant item by one click • DACTrak provides a method to schedule and track the barrier removal • Documentation of progress and compliance using the progress reporting feature of DACTrak • Priorities can be established and further refined using DACTrak DACTrak provides for an organized input method that captures all of the information gathered from the site inspections with photographs for each noncompliant finding. In essence, all of the field information is captured in a web-based software package and provides for “green” data collection and avoids paper and pencil checklists and unorganized photographs. DACTrak can also be used on a tablet pc to add new facilities and update compliance assessments and transition plans. A-11 Disability Access Consultants Proposal to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes for ADA Consulting Services 9 DAC has also found that having usable “software” and not just a database is very important to be able to easily manage and update the transition plan. Our extensive experience with clients needing to have an easy to manage and update plan was the catalyst for DAC to develop our DACTrak software for use by our clients. Thus, other critical issues include: • Software to update and manage your Transition Plan • The ability to document progress and barrier removal • The ability to print custom reports • The ability to update the plan “automatically” when codes change without re-inspecting sites • The ability to project costs • The ability to add or delete facilities DAC’s collection of actual measurements of as-is conditions and GIS information for public rights- of-way is another value-added item. The collection of an as-is condition is a valuable asset to allow the user to make an informed decision based on an actual measurement. For example, if a “yes” or “no” approach is utilized to indicate if an item is compliant, the user may not know what the actual level of noncompliance is and would not be able to set a priority or severity rating. If codes change, the information collected can be reprocess without the need to re-inspect, thus providing longevity of the plan and internal capacity of the City in a cost-effective manner. SCOPE OF WORK OVERALL PHASES DAC proposes to execute the project in two phases. Detailed activities and deliverables are provided in the following scope of work description. Phase I: Study and Evaluation - Self-Evaluation/Facility Survey/Barrier Assessment a) DAC will conduct an initial project kick-off meeting, if requested, with selected City of Rancho Palos Verdes staff to establish roles and lines of communication, refine project goals, review the overall project schedule, schedule surveys of City of Rancho Palos Verdes facilities and identify key City of Rancho Palos Verdes personnel related to the project scope. Initial self-evaluation activities will be completed during this step. b) The initial orientation meeting should include an assessment of previous compliance activities and areas of current or potential litigation. The review of compliance activities and high priority areas will assist with the development of an overall project plan. The review and documentation of prior initiatives will also build a more defensible plan if the City is challenged by litigation. c) DAC will conduct field surveys of the buildings and facilities listed in the property schedule, as well as the City maintained public rights-of-way to sidewalks, curb ramps and signalized intersections. d) Surveys will identify all physical barriers (interior and exterior) including the path of travel in and around the facility and from the public right-of-way at each site in accordance with Title 24 of the California Building Code and the ADA Standards (previously referred to as ADAAG). e) DAC currently provides geographical information (latitude and longitude) for each identified exterior barrier in the public right-of-way that can be incorporated into the City’s Geographical Information System (GIS). DAC incorporated the map-linked GIS feature based on the needs of many of our City and County clients. DAC uses a comprehensive approach to inspecting public rights-of-way (PROW). In order to A-12 Disability Access Consultants Proposal to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes for ADA Consulting Services 10 conduct an assessment of all the requirements in the PROW, DAC conducts manual measurements of the field conditions and enters the information into our DACTrak pc tablet in the field. DAC has found that the use of automated equipment for running slopes on sidewalks, such as ultra-light profilers, do not provide an actual measurement, but only provide a chart showing ranges. In some cases, if a change in level is greater than ½ inch, no actual quantifiable information is reported of how much greater or of the severity. In order to get the actual measurements for the sidewalks and intersections, the use of a “profiler” does not provide the measurements needed for items such as automated pedestrian signals and street furniture. f) As required by the ADA, the 2010 ADA Standards will be compared with state codes (Title 24 of the California Building Code) and the standard that provides the greater level of accessibility utilized. As DAC collects as-is field conditions and records all information, data can be reprocessed if codes change without conducting a re-inspection, thus resulting in a significant savings when codes change and the plan needs to be updated. g) Provisions and standards for historic buildings will be applied as appropriate. h) Assessments and reports will include a high degree of detail with photographs, code references, and cost estimates. The DACTrak software and reports will include additional specifics, such as as-built dimensions, progress reports, additional prioritizations, preset reporting features and other custom reports. Reports will be delivered in the format requested, and reports will also be available using DACTrak. The inclusion of photographs showing the as-is condition has proven to be valuable assistance to clients in the formulation of the decisions regarding barrier removal priorities. The DACTrak software provides an easy to use accessibility management platform that exceeds the ability to manage the plan by hard copies and binders. The assessment report of each facility will include cost estimates to correct deficiencies in accordance with the ADA, Title 24 of the California Building Code. i) Barriers are identified by building, floor, or location and given a unique identifier record number (UIN) to assist with navigation in the accessibility software and location of the finding and recommendation by area and site. Estimated applicable costs will be given by item and element in accordance with industry standards. Costs can be easily adjusted to adhere to any cost estimates the City may utilize. j) Physical access problems that require structural solutions will be documented in the Compliance Assessment/Transition Plan. The proposed method for removal will be provided. The transition plan will identify physical barriers that may limit accessibility of City programs, services or activities for individuals with disabilities. The schedule for removal of barriers and appropriate timelines will be developed in consultation with the City. k) The field survey information will be presented to the ADA Compliance Team as requested using the DACTrak web-based accessibility management system. Many different types of reports will be available for the City. Feedback will be incorporated as appropriate. l) The survey data will be compiled into a Transition Plan which will identify actual as-is conditions and prioritize current barriers, provide a schedule for barrier removal, as well as establish procedures for addressing future accessibility issues. The Transition Plan data is able to be exported to Excel or PDF formats. The Transition Plan data will include photographs, findings, recommendations, code references, estimated costs, priority settings (in addition to prioritized report) in accessibility software for accessibility management. Photographs and GIS coordinates are valuable for the development of the transition plan. m) DAC will assist the City to solicit input from members of the community and persons with disabilities. Methods will be utilized to solicit public input may include notices, information on the website and surveys. n) The Transition Plan data will be provided using DACTrak which has management, monitoring, and web- based tracking tools that allow staff to manage current and future accessibility issues, update the deficiency status, and generate reports to show progress in meeting the Transition Plan requirements. Phase II: Implementation Phase - Transition Plan Development a) DAC will develop, in collaboration with the City a comprehensive ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition plan for facilities, buildings and tennis court. b) DAC will develop a first draft of the ADA Transition Plan with recommended priority levels. A-13 Disability Access Consultants Proposal to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes for ADA Consulting Services 11 c) DAC will meet with the City to review the draft document and incorporate any comments, changes or feedback. d) DAC will assist the City to conduct public outreach activities that may include website announcements, postings, surveys, announcements, individual meetings and other activities as requested. e) DAC will prepare and produce a second draft if necessary with a detailed description of the barrier and the proposed method for barrier removal. f) DAC will train the City in the use of the DACTrak web-based accessibility management system to prepare reports as well as update and manage the ADA Plan. g) DAC will provide an executive summary of the project. h) DAC does not recommend that the plan be adopted by the City, as adoption is not required and may cause additional discussion regarding projected dates in the plan that are meant to be “projected and estimated dates” and not final dates of barrier removal. i) DAC will provide the City with DACTrak, a web-based monitoring, tracking, and management system at project completion. DACTrak allows users to review and update progress in barrier removal, and to generate many different styles of reports to document progress. DACTrak contains one or more integrated photographs that are attached to the finding, eliminating the need to reference another area or report supplement. DACTrak is an actual accessibility management software, not just electronic database of items contained in the Facility Survey Report. DAC has found that an electronic database or Excel format does not provide the City with a tool containing integrated photographs needed to implement the plan, set priorities, make notes and print custom reports. If the City does not want to use the software, the data can be placed in an Excel spreadsheet. • DAC will license DACTrak to the City to manage all of the field data collected, print custom reports, document progress, estimate costs and perform other management functions; • Data collected will be the property of the City should the City decide for any reason not to continue to use the DACTrak accessibility intake and management software system; • The California JPIA, of which the City is a member, has an agreement with DAC to pay for the use of DACTrak; • DACTrak will include and provide correlation with field data collected, reports, transition plans, drawings, code references, estimated costs and photographs for each noncompliant accessibility item or element; • Reference maps for GIS information will be provided in addition to a linked mapping system for each item; • DACTrak provides a description, location and record number for each barrier that allows the user to access the information and location j) DAC will provide City staff with training regarding ADA Compliance from both a programmatic and administrative point of view and also for facility management and maintenance.
