CC - Item 4A - Review of Proposals for City Engineering Servicesi 11 ROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: OLIVER CHI, CITY MANAGER (Dk~C~-- DATE: APRIL 22, 2008 SUBJECT: REVIEW OF PROPOSALS FOR CITY ENGINEERING SERVICES t i ~r SUMMARY On February 12, the City Council approved specifications for engineering services and authorized staff to solicit bids from qualified engineering services firms. Also at this meeting, the City Council asked staff to develop a proposal to perform these services in- house with City staff. Staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for these services and received five proposals, including four from outside professional engineering firms and one from the City's Development Services Business Unit. The proposed start date for services is June 1, 2008. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends that the City Council review the attached proposals and provide further direction to staff. DISCUSSION Background The current contract for City engineering services has not been updated since it was initially adopted in 1981. The scope of work in the RFP approved by the City Council includes professional engineering and inspection services in support of the City's Development Services Business Unit. The specifications provide for the same services that are currently performed, with enhanced reporting standards and clearly defined performance levels. Proiect Description/Scope of Services Services in the RFP include development review, traffic engineering, design responsibilities, public works inspection, grant administration and development, and utility coordination. In accordance with the approved specification, firms were evaluated on several criteria, including: APPROVED FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENDA: 0 City Council Meeting April 22, 2008 Page 2 of 5 The proposal's responsiveness to the RFP. • Prior experience providing services in other communities. The ability to meet the needs of the City, as listed in the RFP. s The proposed approach used to provide services, ensure customer satisfaction, and improve operating efficiencies. • The proposed cost, including design services, traffic engineering services, inspection services, plan checking fees, the cost of preparing an update to the City's pavement management system, and general engineering services. Request for Proposal, Bid Process, and Analysis To ensure that a high standard of service is maintained, the specifications for Rosemead's engineering services are detailed in the request for proposal and the draft agreement.

ROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT ~ORFOgaren TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: OLIVER CHI, CITY MANAGER ()G. C-e,:j DATE: FEBRUARY 12, 2008 SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF SPECIFICATIONS AND AUTHORIZATION TO SOLICIT PROPOSALS FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES SUMMARY On December 11, 2007, the City Council discussed the possibility of bidding the City's existing contract for engineering services. The City's current contract for engineering services was approved on July 14, 1981, and has not been updated since that time. Although the current engineering firm, Willdan, has provided responsive services through the years, it is prudent practice to solicit bids from other qualified engineering • firms to encourage competition and ensure that the City is paying the lowest possible prices for these services. After reviewing this item on December 11th the Council asked staff to develop a request for proposal (RFP) for engineering services. A RFP has been prepared and is summarized below for the City Council's review. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends that the City Council: 1. Approve the attached specifications for engineering services 2. Authorize staff to solicit bids from the attached list of qualified engineering service providers 3. Authorize staff to submit a bid to perform engineering services DISCUSSION Proiect Description/Scope of Servires The current contract for City engineering services has riot been updated since it was initially adopted in 1981. The scope of work in the attached specification includes providing professional engineering and inspection services in support of the City's r• Community Development Department. The specifications provide for the same services APPROVED FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENDA: 1 / • City Council Meeting February 12, 2008 • Page 2 of 4 r that are currently performed, with enhanced reporting standards and clearly defined performance levels. Over the past two months, staff has conducted a review of the City's engineering services including analyzing past service levels, observing current operations, looking at future development in the City, and interviewing the City's current contractor, Willdan. This review confirmed that the City's engineering functions were in need of new standards and greater accountability measures. Issuing a request for proposals (RFP) will provide the City with well-defined performance levels and better controls of engineering costs. Services in the RFP include development review, traffic engineering, design responsibilities, public works inspection, grant administration and development, and utility coordination. General Engineering Services • Plan review for all public projects • Recommend regulations and ordinance to City Council regarding engineering functions • Oversee storm water/NPDES functions • • Prepare grant applications and administer grant funds • Ensure compliance with regional and state requirements for public projects • Prepare design documents and specifications for public projects • Provide assistance to City Council, City Commissions, City staff, as needed • Participate in the City's Capital Improvement Project planning process • Manage the City's Geographic Information Systems program Traffic Engineering Services • Plan review for all public projects • Recommend traffic safety improvements • Prepare grant applications and administer grant funds • Recommend regulations and , ordinance to City Council regarding traffic engineering functions • Recommend improvements for maintenance'of traffic signals, signage, and roadway markings • Provide assistance to City Council, City Commissions, City staff, as needed Public Works Inspection Services • Provide construction observance of work in the public right-of-way • Provides permitting and observance of utility improvements 0 City Council Meeting February 12, 2008 • Page 3 of 4 Request for Proposal Process To ensure that a high standard of service is maintained, the specifications for Rosemead's engineering services are detailed in the request for proposal and the proposed agreement. These specifications include: minimum staffing levels and service requirements, operational reporting requirements, insurance requirements, and performance standards. Service levels will be monitored by City staff who will also review the contractor's required reports for operations. The term of the proposed contract is for two years with an option for three additional one year terms at the City's discretion. Experience has proven that a multi-year contract is the most cost-effective means to have engineering services performed for both the City and the contractor. Bid Process and Analysis Upon City Council approval, the RFP will be mailed to a list of qualified engineering services firms. Tentatively, proposals will be due to the City by Tuesday, March 25 and staff will present a recommendation to the City Council on April 22, 2008. The timeline for soliciting bids is included in the RFP If approved, the new contract would • begin May 1, 2008. Evaluation Criteria Proposals submitted to the City will be reviewed by the City Council, City staff, and local engineering professionals. As indicated in the RFP, fee schedules and costs will not be the sole criteria for award of this agreement. Instead, evaluation criteria for the proposals will include several categories, including experience, cost, management ability, and reference checks. FINANCIAL REVIEW Funding for engineering services are provided through several funding sources including the general and redevelopment funds, Proposition A funds, gas tax funds, development review fees, and other grant programs. It is estimated that the City spends over $925,000 for contract engineering services including $500,000 for traditional engineering functions and $425,000 for capital project related work. These costs do not include City staff time spent to administer contracts, meet with consultant staff, and review consultant staff work.

Our Mission Our mission at AAE is to earn the respect and confidence of our clients by providing the highest standard of professional municipal services that ultimately contribute to the communities we serve. City of Rosemead: Professional Engineering services ,l1 • h t AAR INCORPORATED` Understanding Scope of Services A A AAE, Inc. offers the expertise and guidance needed to assist the City of Rosemead engineering services t in the areas of Plan Checking of Public Improvement and Development Plans, Traffic Engineering, Pavement Management. System, Engineering Design and additional services including Construction Inspection, Maintenance Services, Surveying and Geotechnical Investigations. As part of the City of Rosemead's "Consultation Team Program", AAE will manage all facets, from inception to completion, of a variety of programs and projects. I• Methodology and Work Plan Methodology At AAE, we understand that successful implementation of programs and projects, including design projects can only be achieved through carefully devised strategies which address the specific needs of a program, project or even components of a project. We believe that the fundamental framework for successful delivery of design projects, programs and project management remains the same; nonetheless, the approach to different programs and projects needs to be dynamic and innovative enough to have the inherent capability of addressing the unique characteristic of each. As such, we do not believe in prescribing generic solutions and products. Our approach to managing programs and design projects begins with gaining a thorough understanding of the City's needs not by making assumptions, but through careful study and evaluation of pertinent documents and, more importantly, by careful listening to the ideas and needs of all stakeholders. Only then would our team members start to devise tailor-made strategies, procedural guidelines and manuals, benchmarks, thresholds, and other implementation tools. We have assembled a team of experts who have proven track records in implementing a wide range of programs and public works capital improvement projects. We have the firm belief that what separates AAE from other firms who provide similar services is the fact that all of our senior team members and almost all of the other team members, at some point in their distinguished careers, have been employees of local governments in various capacities, from Director of Public Works, City Engineers, Senior Engineers, Program Managers, Project Managers, Contract Administrators, to Inspectors and Construction Observers. As such, each one of our team members have a clear understanding of the City's needs and priorities and can very comfortably and without the need for a learning curve truly become a natural extension of the City of Rosemead's staff. The tasks described in the Request for Proposal (RFP), Attachment A, are expanded herein to provide more detail. City of Rosemead: Professional Engineering services 2 INCORPORATED Work Plan Although individual projects differ, based upon our initial review of City's needs AAE proposes the following work plan for each of the services listed in "Attachment A" of the RFP.

City of Rosemead: Professional Engineering Services 5 1 i / / / 1 / 1 INCORPORATED Existing Records Review Useful records pertaining to the proposed work may exist such as existing improvement plans, maps, "as-built" drawings, utility plans, reports, studies, and other pertinent information within the projects' limits. Field Investigations Perform a site investigation to evaluate the existing condition of items pertaining to the design. During this investigation, locations of damaged and/or distressed features will be inspected, confirmed and summarized if required. ADA accessibility compliance will be reviewed and non- compliant features noted. Existing drainage patterns will be reviewed for street projects so that any changes to eliminate ponding can be identified. Utility Research Notification and Coordination Conduct fieldwork to verify the locations of surface utility features within the project limits. In conjunction with information researched, notify affected utility companies of the impending project. Pavement Analysis As needed by the project, AAE will review available existing pavement analysis reports. Based on the review of the reports, we will recommend to the City if additional, supplemental, or completely new report of pavement analysis of the subject streets will be needed. At the City's direction, we will procure the services of a geotechnical engineer who will conduct a pavement condition survey of the existing roadway condition. Base Mapping A base map will be prepared and used for the preparation of the construction drawings. This will show existing features necessary to depict the intended work within the project area. This approach is anticipated to present a cost savings to the City while maintaining intent and quality of work. Prepare Plans Prepare plans to City standards utilizing the base mapping and agreed improvement concept. Appropriate City, APWA, Caltrans or other agency standards will be utilized and additional detailing will be included as necessary for adequate bidding and construction purposes. Specifications Prepare a comprehensive set of technical specifications based upon the boiler plate provided by the City. All bid items required by the plans or otherwise needed to accomplish project City of Rosemead: Professional Engineering Services 6 AAR INCORPORATED 1 construction will be thoroughly described in the general provisions and included in the contractor's bid list. Technical provisions will reference the Greenbook, Caltrans or other appropriate specification. Cost Estimate Prepare a construction cost estimate for verification of project budget and assistance during the contractors bidding process. Submittals AAE will prepare plans, specifications and cost estimate (PS&E) submittal package for City's review at certain milestones, depending the scope of work for each project. Meetings and Coordination In addition to the initial Project Definition and Program Development Meeting, continuous coordination and updates will be required between the design team and City staff. Progress reports will be provided at appropriate intervals and as necessary to document project status. In addition, City staff will be continuously informed of work status and issues through email, phone and facsimile communications.

We also provide comprehensive asset and infrastructure management programs including Pavement Management Systems (PMS), and Sewer, Water, and Storm Drain Master Plans. The first step in conducting the pavement condition survey will be to validate and confirm the inventory segmentation criteria for the City's pavement network. This will be based from the information obtained from the City and the existing database and will act as an initial quality control for standard street naming conventions. This will be performed on all streets (arterials, Collectors, residentials, and alleys) within the City. In validating and updating the dataset our staff will include all critical pavement data (e.g., inspection/distress, street dimensions, work history information, structural and ride data, etc.), which will allow our staff to calculate the existing Pavement Condition Indices (PCI) based upon a 0-100 scale. Once the pavement network to be surveyed has been verified, the inspection of 75 centerline street miles of pavement will be made. All distress types will be collected based upon actual surface conditions and physical characteristics of the segment. Surveying methods will be conducted by remaining consistent with Army Corps of Engineer sampling guidelines while being flexible to current City practices. City of Rosemead: Professional Engineering Services 7 k ;Y INCORPORATED Surveying methods typically are conducted by surveying 100 percent of the surface area; a more accurate indication of road conditions is generated thereby producing a more accurate estimate of maintenance and rehabilitation costs. The visual (windshield) survey is performed by a team of experienced and trained AAE personnel using an automated system to collect field data (collection of data is recorded into our field HP Ipaq units then downloaded into the matching database files). This data is collected on-board then transferred at the end of the day to our in-house workstations for quality control and data population. Our staff and surveyors will be responsible for organizing the work to minimize traffic disruption on the City's street system. All work will be performed in accordance with OSHA standards, and furthermore, AAE staff will inform City engineering and police staff when and where our teams will be working during the week's period. AAE will submit a final report to the City that will describe the results of the Pavement Analysis including PCI for all streets and a multi-year Capital Improvement Plan for the rehabilitation of the City of Rosemead's street network. 3) Traffic Engineering Services Working together with City Staff, our assigned City Traffic Engineer, Patrick Lang, T.E., will lead the Traffic Engineering team to complete the projects assigned to AAE.

For Engineering Services April 1, 2008 -1- • Background 0 In response to the Rosemead City Council's direction, this proposal has been prepared to provide responsible staff assistance for Engineering Services in the City's Development Services Department. City staff has reviewed the Request for Proposal document and proposes to use a combination of City staff and contract services to provide highly responsive, professional staff assistance in all engineering functions. Under the direction of the Assistant City Manager, External Business Units, the Engineering Services division will work with other divisions in the Development Services Department to encourage. appropriate development and provide excellent customer service to residents, developers, and the general public. Experience Existing and proposed City staff in the Development Services Department has the required leadership ability and background capable of leading the engineering functions outlined in the Request for Proposal document. Our staff members have served several public agencies in Southern California, including the cities of Arcadia, Claremont Newport Beach, Glendale, Norwalk, Santa Fe Springs, Chino and Whittier. In addition, City staff members will combine their background with the expertise of new staff that have served in other communities that are of similar size to Rosemead. Organization/Staffing This proposal seeks to fit within the existing structure of the City's Development Services Department. The Department's existing structure includes five divisions - Planning Services, Building Services, Housing/Economic Development, Engineering Services, and Support Services (Special Projects, Transportation, Business License, Capital Projects Management, and Contract Management). The City's Engineering Services Division is a highly visible and diverse operating function in Development Services. As such, the Division has oversight of several critical functions as follows: Current Engineering Services - plan check services, public works inspection, surveying, review public improvement projects, and geotechnical services Capital Project Planning/Management - design, project management and inspection of public right-of-way improvement, public facilities improvement, park development, and master planning (pavement management plans, utilities master plans) -2- • • Supportive Engineering Services - support to the City Council and Traffic Commission; preparation of master plans for City roadways and utilities; coordination with utilities liaisons; policy/procedure development Environmental Programs - oversight of AB 939 programs, NPDES/storm water management, and clean air programs Grant Funded Project Management - development of proposals for regional, state, and federally funded improvement projects; grant administration and contract management/compliance As indicated in the organizational structure below, the City seeks to organize all engineering functions under the direction of a Deputy Public Works Director. This position will provide support to the Assistant City Manager and will be responsible for all engineering functions listed above. In addition to engineering services, staff may also be able to incorporate its field/public services under the oversight of the Deputy Director. This will help streamline operations and allow the City to balance short and long-term infrastructure and maintenance needs. -3- The proposed Engineering Services Division will utilize a combination of City employees and contract services in order to provide adequate staff support. Staff is proposing to hire 2 (two) new full time employees and utilize professional contract services. The proposed breakdown of duties and assignments will be as follows:.

Bill Dvorak, AICP 8 Prorgam Manager/ Sr. Vice President ❑~ey ~ andAssodates,tm q I 10 's 1 ~ww 7 PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES city of rosemead Understanding of Scope of Services N 0 0 The City of Rosemead is seeking a consultant to provide engineering services on an as-needed basis. We understand that the assignments will vary, ranging from working in your office as engineering support staff, plan checking, traffic engineering, pavement management system updates, civil engineering design, and transportation planning projects. The City of Rosemead Engineering Division does not have enough full-time staff relative to provide a high level of service to the community, therefore the plan checking responsibilities fall on to a few staff members. You don't have complete control over the workload of reviewing civil and traffic engineering design plans and that workload changes frequently-sometimes it is "seasonal." You need a small group of experienced engineers that you can count on to cost-effectively lighten your load when necessary, and provide faster plan review for your constituents when needed. Kimley-Horn is that group. It is our hope to build long-standing, close working relationships with the City of Rosemead. We look forward to being your consultant of choice. The City of Rosemead wants its on-call consultants to be available when the need arises. Kimley-Horn carefully manages project requirements on a weekly basis and forecasts labor needs on a monthly basis to ensure we can meet the commitments we make to our clients. When additional help is needed, either in a very specialized discipline or to meet production crunches, it can be provided from any of our other 63 offices. For the City, we will commit to keeping our core key staff available to you by reducing their commitments to other projects if necessary through our milestone management process. Kimley-Horn will subcontract the following services: Capital Improvement Program (CIP) • Conduct design survey • Provide field inspection services and accept completion Survey Services • Survey base mapping and construction staking, design surveying, photo control, aerial mapping, centerline surveys, corner surveys, corner needs, and record surveys Geotechnical Services • Perform soils and materials testing ❑ M ❑ Kmley Hom M andAssocates,Inc. Understanding of Scope of Services 18810039.08 I Page 12 4 4 A 4 s PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES city of rosemead Project Approach a a • Kimley-Horn tailors our approach to the scope of work according to your project needs. From the beginning, we gain a thorough understanding of the City's objectives and review available information. We will complete a full survey of each project site to better understand issues and constraints. This enables us to develop a detailed scope of services that serves as a "roadmap" to successful project completion. It also prevents the potential for unneeded engineering and costly change orders. By working with you on a regular basis, we will also better understand the specific design requirements of a PS&E assignment. Another key element of our management toolbox which serves as an umbrella for the entire management and production process involves Kimley-Horn's formal in-house program for total quality management: Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI). At Kimley-Horn, our firm, individual employees, and project teams share a commitment to providing our clients with the highest quality services. In an effort to assure quality in the services we provide and projects we complete, Kimley-Horn instituted a firmwide CQI program. Our CQI program is not just a means of internal quality reviews; Kimley-Horn endeavors to involve our clients in meaningful, formal CQI tasks that have benefits that extend beyond the project or task at hand. We have conducted numerous COI tasks for projects involving local and state agencies nationwide and continue to strive to identify areas for improvement and work with our clients to achieve a higher level of success for the project and client/consultant relationship. Kimley-Horn's formal QC/QA program is based on assigning experienced, senior professionals who are otherwise qualified to conduct a particular project, to serve only in a quality control role. Our depth allows us to provide such personnel, and their role provides the project with a fresh perspective and critical eye. This benefits your project in obvious, numerous ways. Please see the next section for more information about our methodology in the services we can provide to the City. ❑m" Kmdey-HM M and As=tK Iha Project ApproachI TZ810039.08 I Page 13 L PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES city of rosemead Experience and Qualifications of Firm 0 Kimley-Horn is a multi-disciplined engineering and planning firm with 63 offices'nationwide, including our four Southern California offices in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Diego.

Kimley-Horn staff provides services to several public agencies for both public improvement plans and private development plan review. In most of our assignments, we have been able to reduce the time it has taken City staff to "turn-around" the plans, and often our cost to do so is less. Our proven approach to completing high-quality reviews with consistently detailed comments is based upon our "two-level" review approach. Our approach begins with our well-trained, mid- level staff completing a detailed review, and "red lining" each plan sheet. These staff members have significantly lower billing rates, and are therefore an extremely cost-effective team. But our review won't end there, because before we deliver the plans back to you, our more experienced, senior staff will sit down with the mid-level staff to perform a quality control review of their work. This allows for faster review and lower costs for our more seasoned professionals-a savings passed on to you. Our other strategies to reduce costs include spending our own time learning about your design requirements before any review. We also plan to minimize meeting time -especially for assignments with 10 or fewer plan sheets. The flow chart on the next page illustrates our approach to plan checking. Our services will include the following on an as-needed basis: • Plan review for public improvement projects-streets, sewer, storm drains, signals, signs, striping, traffic control, and grading • Plan review for land development projects - final maps, subdivision map act documents Relevant Experience - Plan Check Services • Plan Check services, West Covina, CA • Plan Check Services, Agoura Hills, CA • General Engineering Support and Plan Check Services, Lincoln, CA • City of Lincoln On-Call, Lincoln, CA • Loomis On-Call Engineering and Plan Check Services, CA Should you need additional, more detailed descriptions of the projects listed above, we can supply more information at your request.

Pavement Management Systems With decades of pavement design experience nationwide, from surface course to subgrades, Kimley-Horn's engineers understand how sound pavements are built and can help you keep yours in optimal condition. We work with you to assess your existing concrete or asphalt pavements, using a range of non-destructive tests as well as destructive tests when needed. Then we help you identify and implement the best tools for on-going prioritization of pavement rehabilitation and maintenance efforts. Kimley-Horn has conducted numerous pavement analyses and studies based on the MicroPAVER software and we are well versed to assist you in developing a sound pavement management program. We add our field expertise to the computer's analysis to help you make critical operational decisions that go beyond software's capabilities. Our pavement management experience includes pavement condition surveys, visual condition assessments, structural evaluations, Pavement Management System (PMS)/GIS Interface, rehabilitation and maintenance planning, development of Capital Improvement Programs, and PMS training. We are experienced not only in pavement management programs, but also in design and construction management, which means we understand the issues and operational constraints so we can provide a common-sense approach to maintenance and rehabilitation. On pavement rehabilitation projects, a strategy must be initially developed to properly address pavement life, available budget, and constructibility. These components often need to be balanced to create a successful project. This requires close coordination with the Geotechnical Engineer, City staff, and any other stakeholders. Our team is familiar with pavement rehabilitation options and accustomed to selecting solutions that maximize rehabilitated lane- miles.

A yi 8 ?i 4 A A~ PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES city of rosemead Pavement Management Systems Approach 2 0 The following brief outline summarizes our approach in updating the City's latest Pavement Management System (PMS). The update will include a network level evaluation of pavements, consisting of an update to the pavement construction history inventory and pavement condition survey of roadway pavements, and development of an eight- year Maintenance and Rehabilitation (M&R) program. The survey and inventory will be conducted using a pavement condition index (PCI) inspection procedure as defined by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. PC[ is a common index for comparing the functional condition of pavements. Record Research/Network Definition: Review the City's available records in an effort to update pavement types, composition, and pavement ages since the year 2005 PMS update and meet with City staff to supplement existing data and to identify maintenance and rehabilitation policies and costs that are used for MicroPAVER loading. Update Existing Pavement Conditions Survey: Perform a visual condition survey of all city streets. Condition surveys are conducted using the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) procedures developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Inspection of a portion of the pavement areas is usually desirable and recommended by a statistical sampling process to reduce time and effort in determining the PCI of the pavements. A sampling rate of approximately 10% of the total sample units for each pavement section will be used. For asphalt surfaced roads (including asphalt over Portland Cement Concrete) a sample unit is defined as an area of 2500 sq. ft. ± 1000 sq. ft. For PCC pavements a sample unit is defined as 20 slabs± 8 slabs, no matter what the slab size is. The selected sample units within each section for the City streets will be visually inspected. MicroPAVER Database Update: Visual field surveys will be entered into the program. MicroPAVER uses this jb information to create a multi-functional database that can be used for a wide range of maintenance and management A efforts, including pavement condition evaluations and analysis. This powerful program assists the pavement manager .AD in many ways. It serves as a centralized database from which to create reports and graphics. City maintenance and rehabilitation (Ivi policies will be established with assistance from City staff and will be entered into :a a 71 MicroPAVER. The estimated amount of distress repair quantities and costs are then computed based upon extrapolated data from the condition surveys. MicroPAVER Economic Analysis/Budget Cost Estimates: An economic analysis will be completed using MicroPAVER to develop management reports and estimates for maintenance and repair. Constrained and unconstrained budget scenarios will be developed for rehabilitating and maintaining citywide pavements and are based upon prioritization needs, the City's funding, and ultimately bringing all sections of the City streets to a PCI of 70 or above. Estimated pavement distress quantities and costs will be provided for each pavement section. Pavement Management Program and Report: The Pavement Management Program provides the information necessary for the development of an overall rehabilitation and maintenance plan and funding requirements to satisfy rehabilitation and maintenance needs for an eight-year period. The Pavement Management Program will be developed in coordination with the City's staff. The development needs will be prioritized to reflect budgeting constraints as applicable.

Box 29543 Raleigh, NC 27626-0543 Independent Accountants' Review Report Board of Directors Kimley-Hom and Associates, Inc.: We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheets of Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. (an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of APHC, Inc.) as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholder's equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. All information included in these financial statements is the representation of the management of Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. A review consists principally of inquiries of Company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our reviews, with the exception of the matter described in the following paragraph, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. As discussed in note 1 to the financial statements, Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123(8), Share-Based Payment (Statement 123(R)), requires that for the year ended December 31, 2006 the cost associated with all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. Management has informed us that the Company has not recorded compensation expense for share-based payment transactions in the accompanying 2006 financial statements and that, if the provisions of Statement 123(8) had been followed, net earnings and stockholder's equity would have been decreased by approximately $2,700,000 and $11,600,000, respectively, at December 31, 2006.

Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2006 and 2005 (See Accompanying Independent Accountants' Review Report) (I) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Nature of Business Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. (the Company) is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of APHC, j Inc. The Company provides engineering, planning, and environmental consulting services to public and private clients in locations throughout the United States. (b) Revenue Recognition Fixed fee contracts are accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method. Contract revenues and profits are recognized in the proportion that contract costs incurred bear to total estimated costs. Contract costs include direct labor, materials, equipment, subcontracts, and indirect costs specifically related to contract performance, such as indirect labor and supplies. Generally, contract revenues and profits are recognized as contract costs are incurred for various types of cost-plus contracts. Contract costs include direct labor, materials, equipment, subcontracts, Q and indirect costs specifically related to contract performance, such as indirect labor and supplies. Selling, general, and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. For contracts extending beyond one year, adjustments to cost and profit estimates during the course of the contract are recorded in the accounting period in which they become known. Contract losses are recognized in full when such losses become known. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract incentive and penalty provisions, and final contract settlements may result in revisions to costs and profit and are recognized in the period in which revisions are determined. The asset "Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts" represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability "Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts" represents billings in excess of revenues recognized. (c) Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly-liquid, short-term investments with an original maturity of three months'or less to be cash equivalents. (d) Marketable Securities Debt securities are considered to be available for sale and are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported net of deferred taxes as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Gains and losses incurred on the sale of marketable S securities are determined by the specific identification method. 8 (Continued) KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2006 and 2005 (See Accompanying Independent Accountants' Review Report) (e) Allowancefor Uncollectible Accounts An allowance for uncollectible accounts is provided for using the allowance method which is based 9 on historical experience and management's evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at the end of each year. The allowance for uncollectible accounts was $3,300,000 and $2,700,000 as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. 8 (n Properties and Equipment All properties and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed currently. When items are disposed of or replaced, the cost and accumulated depreciation amounts are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in other income. (g) Depreciation { The cost of properties and equipment is depreciated using primarily the straight-line method over the { following useful lives: Type of property Life in years Automotive equipment 5 years Office furniture and equipment 5 to 10 years Leasehold improvements 5 to 10 years Building 39 years Depreciation expense totaled $6,484,168 in 2006 and $5,250,141 in 2005. (h) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill represents the excess of costs over fair value of net assets of businesses acquired. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, as of January 1, 2002. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142. Remaining goodwill as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $160,832. SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal ofLong-Lived Assets. During 2004 and 2006, the Company acquired certain contracts of two other firms, which are being amortized over the lives of the agreements, ranging from 1 to 3 years. Amortization expense for 2006 and 2005 was $46,558 and $21,558, respectively. (Continued) KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2006 and 2005 (See Accompanying Independent Accountants' Review Report) (i) Income Taxes The Company uses the cash method of accounting for income tax purposes. The income (loss) of the Company is included in the consolidated federal and state income tax returns of APHC, Inc. Where state income tax laws do not permit the filing of a consolidated income tax return, separate returns are filed. The Company provides for current income tax expense (benefit) on a separate company basis. The Company uses the asset and liability approach to recognize the tax effects of temporary differences between financial reporting and tax purposes at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are recovered or settled. (j) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (k) Other Comprehensive Income Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (SFAS 130), Reporting Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. Comprehensive income includes all nonowner changes in equity during a period and is divided into two broad classifications: net income and other comprehensive income (OCI). OCI includes revenues, expenses, gains, and losses that are excluded from earnings under generally accepted accounting principles. For the Company, OCI consists of unrealized gains or losses on securities available for sale. (1) Recently Issued Accounting Standards In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (Statement 123(8)), which requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized ratably in the financial statements over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. The Company was required to adopt Statement 123(R) effective January 1, 2006, but has elected not to do so for the year ended December 31, 2006. The Company estimates that if Statement 123(R) had been adopted, net earnings and stockholder's equity would have been decreased by approximately $2,700,000 and $11,600,000, respectively, at December 31, 2006. APHC, Inc. has amended its Master Contract as it relates to stock offers granted in 2007 and subsequent years, which should allow the Company to comply with Statement 123(R) with respect to those offers with no cumulative net effect on stockholder's equity. Management has obtained waivers for this departure from generally accepted accounting principles, which has resulted in a 10 (Continued) • 0 KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2006 and 2005 (See Accompanying Independent Accountants' Review Report) qualification of the accompanying independent accountants' review report, from each of APHC Inc.'s stockholders. (m) Reclassificadons Certain 2005 amounts have been reclassified to conform with 2006 classifications. The reclassifications had no effect on net earnings or stockholder's equity as previously reported. (2) Marketable Securities The Company had no marketable securities as of December 31, 2006. The aggregate cost, unrealized gain (loss), and approximate fair value of the available-for-sale securities portfolio at December 31, 2005 by remaining contractual maturity are as follows: Gross Gross unrealized unrealized Cost gain loss Fair value December 31, 2005: Mutual funds $ 23,698,924 - (98,468) 23,600,456 Gross unrealized losses on investment securities and the fair value of the related securities, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at December 31, 2005, were as follows: Available for sale: Mutual funds Less than 12 months 12 months or more Total Unrealized Fair Unrealized air Unrealized Fair losses value losses value losses value $ (19,082) 19,396,131 (79,386) 4,204,325 (98,468) 23,600,456 11 (Continued) KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC.

As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, the estimated liability of $1,750,000 for outstanding claims was included in accounts payable-trade. (5) Related Party Transactions The Company provides management services, administrative support, benefits administration, data processing, and accounting services to affiliated corporations. Included in net professional fees is $56,500 for 2006 and 2005, billed for other management and administrative services. Receivable from affiliate consists of $1,256,685 for 2006 and 2005 due from one of the affiliated corporations for these services. 12 (Continued) b -8 A Q KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2006 and 2005 (See Accompanying Independent Accountants' Review Report) (6) Line of Credit The Company has a $10,000,000 line of credit with a bank that bears interest at the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 1.75% (7.08% and 6.14% at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively). The principal balance outstanding and accrued interest are payable upon demand. The Company's accounts receivable serve as collateral for this line of credit. This line of credit contains provisions that provide for daily automatic transfers of cash to its checking account to cover any bank overdrafts which may arise when outstanding checks are presented to the bank for payment. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company had no borrowings under this line of credit. This line of credit is payable on demand and due to be renewed on July 31, 2007. In the event this line of credit would not be renewed, management believes that the Company could obtain similar credit arrangements from other financial institutions. (7) Debentures Payable The Company has issued debentures to selected employees for cash. These debentures bear interest payable either annually or at maturity, at a rate set annually at prime rate minus 1/2% as of May 1st each year (7.75% as of December 31, 2006). Effective May 1, 2006, the debentures bear interest at prime rate. The debentures may be redeemed at the holder's option prior to maturity for purchase of stock in APHC, Inc., at such time as shares may be offered for purchase by employees under the terms of the APHC, Inc. Master Contract. The future maturities of issued debentures are as follows: 2007 $ 519,000 2008 130,000 2009 721,000 2010 908,000 2011 6,381,500 Total issued 8,659,500 Less current maturities (519,000) Long-term portion $ 8,140,500 (8) Lease Commitments The Company leases office space under operating lease agreements. 13 (Continued) -9 • 0 KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2006 and 2005 (See Accompanying Independent Accountants' Review Report) As of December 31, 2006 the minimum future rentals payable under the noncancelable portions of operating leases were as follows: Total Years ended December 31: 2007 $ 11,219,930 2008 11,687,749 2009 10,286,435 2010 9,570,033 2011 6,208,085 Thereafter 8,905,490 $ 57,877,722 Total rent expense under these lease agreements recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease including any periods of free rent, was $13,427,085 and $11,151,485 for 2006 and 2005, respectively. During 2001, the Company sold a building to an unrelated entity for $3,750,000. Concurrent with the sale, the Company leased back the building for 10 years at a monthly rate of $27,083. Accordingly, the gain on sale of $1,231,764 has been deferred and is being recognized over the 10-year lease term.

The Company's expense under these plans totaled $7,515,227 and $5,839,232 for 2006 and 2005, respectively. I Balances due participants under these plans as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 were $72,928 and $105,642, respectively. The amounts are included in accrued salaries and wages in the accompanying balance sheets. (10) Employee Retirement Plans The Company has an employee Retirement Savings and Pension Plan which includes a 401(k) employee deferral and a Company match. The plan also allows for a profit sharing benefit which is to be determined annually by the board of directors. 14 (Continued) 0 KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2006 and 2005 (See Accompanying Independent Accountants' Review Report) The Company has a defined-contribution Retirement Annuity Plan whose purpose is to provide a retirement benefit for individuals whose compensation exceeds the salary cap imposed by the Internal Revenue Service when computing retirement benefits. Contributions to the employee retirement plans for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, were as follows: 2006 2005 Plan contributions $ 40,699,152 27,780,642 Less forfeitures (550,000) (350,000) Total contributions $ 40,149,152 27,430,642 These contributions are included in payroll overhead expense. (11) Income Taxes Income tax expense (benefit) for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 is as follows: 2006 Current: Federal State Deferred: Federal State $ (998,315) 91,676 (906,639) 4,090,962 564,905 4,655,867 $ 3,749,228 2005 1,728,369 175,950 1,904,319 1,343,402 211,756 1,555,158 3,459,477 The net deferred tax liability of $21,662,628 and $16,966,388 at December 3l, 2006 and 2005, respectively, results primarily from using the cash method of accounting for income tax purposes decreased by certain reimbursable expenses. No valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was required at December 31, 2006 and 2005. Management believes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset can be recovered. 15 (Continued) 9 0 0 KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. Notes to Financial Statements December 31. 2006 and 2005 (See Accompanying Independent Accountants' Review Report) A reconciliation of the expected income tax expense at the parent's federal statutory rate of 35% and income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 is as follows: 2006 2005 Expected income tax expense at statutory rate $ 2,945,772 2,952,859 State income taxes, net of federal benefit 426,778 252,009 Permanent differences 345,982 252,464 Other 30,696 2,145 $ 3,749,228 3,459,477 At December 31, 2006, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards for Federal and State income tax purposes of $19,210,375 which are available to offset future Federal and State taxable income, if any, through 2026. (12) Post-Retirement Health Plan and Health Insurance Continuation Plan The Company has adopted a post-retirement health plan. Participation in this plan is determined by the board of directors. The Company has currently designated certain individuals and their families as participants in the plan. The Plan provides each participant with company health insurance coverage from the date of retirement until age 65 and then provides supplemental Medicare insurance under terms described in the plan. The post-retirement health plan also provides long-term care insurance. The Company has adopted a health insurance continuation plan which allows Principals to continue their group health coverage under the Company's existing group health plan. Participants pay the cost of health insurance premiums for this coverage. This plan also provides a Medicare supplemental policy to eligible participants and their beneficiaries. The measurement date used to determine postretirement benefit measures for the postretirement benefit plan is December 31. In December 2003, the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the Act) became law in the United States. The Act introduces a prescription drug benefit under Medicare as well as a federal subsidy to sponsors of retiree health care benefit plans that provide a benefit that is at least actuarially equivalent to the Medicare benefit. In accordance with FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 106-1 (issued January 2004), Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, the Company elected to defer recognition of the effects of the Act in any measures of the benefit obligation or cost in 2003 and 2004. The Company has reviewed its retiree health plan to determine how to respond to the new legislation and does not plan to pursue the retiree drug subsidy. Therefore, the costs and obligations as of December 31, 2006 do not reflect any impact from the legislation. If the Company decides to pursue the subsidy in a future year, or if the Company decides to amend its plan at a future time to coordinate with Medicare Part D prescription drug benefits, the impact of that decision will be reflected in the postretirement benefit costs and obligations as outlined in FSP FAS 106-2, Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the 16 (Continued) _10 11 10 r~ .p~ 7 r~ 0 0 ei KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2006 and 2005 (See Accompanying Independent Accountants' Review Report) Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, at the effective time of the change. In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 158, Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans (Statement 158). Statement 158 requires companies to recognize the funded status of defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans as a net asset or liability. Statement 158 will not change the components of net periodic benefit cost; however, costs previously deferred will now be recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of applicable tax effects, thereby reducing total stockholders' equity. The Company is required to adopt Statement 158 for the year ending December 31, 2007. The components of net periodic postretirement benefits cost and the significant assumptions of the post-retirement health plan and health insurance continuation plan (the Plans) for 2006 and 2005 consisted of the following: Service cost Interest cost Amortization of unrecognized losses Amortization of prior service costs Net periodic postretirement benefits cost 2006 $ 7,218 149,327 147,832 33,916 $ 338,293 2005 3,204 56,289 33,916 93,409 The Plans' status as of December 31 was as follows: Accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation Unrecognized prior service costs Unrecognized net losses Accrued post-retirement benefit cost 2006 2005 $ (2,473,994) (2,715,039) 279,699 313,615 1,344,256 1,823,738 $ (850,039) (577,686) The accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation was determined using a discount rate of 5.75% and 5.5% for 2006 and 2005, respectively. The unrecognized prior service costs relate to 2000 plan amendments to add a Medicare supplement premium for the current participants and their spouses, and to extend benefits to other principals of the firm and their spouses. Components of unrecognized prior service costs are being amortized over 11-20 years. Unrecognized net losses are amortized over 10 years if they exceed 10% of the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation. The assumed medical care cost trend rate for 2006 is 10% decreasing by one percentage point in each future year to 5% for 2011, and remaining at that level thereafter. Increasing the assumed medical care cost trend rates by one percentage point would increase the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation as of December 31, 2006 by approximately $250,000. 17 (Continued) KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, INC. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2006 and 2005 (See Accompanying Independent Accountants' Review Report) The benefits expected to be paid from the postretirement benefit plan in each year 2007-2011 are $94,699 $151,379, $145,784 and $141,134 and $197,818, respectively. The aggregate benefits expected to be paid in the five years from 2012-2016 are $909,725. The expected benefits are based on the same assumptions used to measure the Company's benefit obligation at December 31 and include estimated future employee service. (13) Disclosures about Fair Values of Financial Instruments The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instr unents: Cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, accounts receivable, accounts payable The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. Marketable securities Marketable securities are considered to be available for sale, and as such are reported at fair value, which is based on quoted market prices for those investments. Debentures payable Since these notes have variable interest rates the carrying value approximates the fair value. (14) Commitments and Contingencies The Company is the guarantor of certain employees' company credit cards. At December 31, 2006 the total amount guaranteed was approximately $100,000. The Company guarantees up to $2,500 per card in the event an employee defaults on payment. Recourse for the Company exists through the withholding of amounts from employees' pay. 18 • ~WILLDAN Serving Public Agencies April 1, 2008 Mr. Chris Marcarello Administrative Services Officer City of Rosemead 8838 Valley Boulevard Rosemead, CA 91770 n 13191 Crossroads Parkway North, Suite 405 Industry, California 91746-3497 562/908-6200 fax 562/695-2120 www.willdan.com Subject: Cost Proposal for Professional Engineering Services for the City of Rosemead Dear Mr. Marcarello: Willdan is pleased to submit this cost proposal to provide professional engineering services as identified in our technical proposal.

To meet these needs, we have designated experienced staff members to fill all key positions in the requested service areas. These individuals have the experience and familiarity with the City of Rosemead's current practices and procedures to assist the City in recommending approaches and programs consistent with the City's newly established goals and objectives. To assure our best effort, and as a measure of our commitment to this engagement, we have named an officer of the company, Mr. Ken Rukavina, P.E., as Principal-In-Charge of this assignment so that the full range of available Willdan resources can also be committed in response to any City need. Contact person for communications and inquiries from the City will be Mr. Rukavina for engineering and public works. Our staff will work closely through the Assistant City Manager - External Business Services to develop and initiate any new city services, including existing and newly established policies, procedures, and fee structures. The proposed Willdan staff can assist Rosemead's staff in managing the full spectrum of municipal public works operations. With 365 employees, Willdan is able to quickly respond to emergencies and disasters in the City, as well as heavy workloads. While we recognize the importance of providing regular, quality service to the public, we believe it is equally important to help City Council and staff formulate and implement effective short= and long-range community development programs. Therefore, one of our primary objectives is to provide a balanced effort between ongoing daily services and assist in the development of long-term community programs. Moreover, we will continue to actively identify and recommend special funding programs which can provide financial assistance to the City in maintaining and upgrading its infrastructure and other community facilities. We recognize the need to emphasize maintenance programs to protect capital investment, particularly streets, roadways, and landscaping. For those facilities which are relatively new, we can help formulate effective maintenance programs that will prevent accelerated deterioration and avoid costly replacement. For older facilities, alternative strategies can be evaluated to develop a cost-effective rehabilitation program. This is particularly important as many of the City facilities have been in place for some time. With our extensive knowledge and constant monitoring of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Willdan will continue to recommend the implementation of their detailed requirements, and the Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for I Sanitary Sewer Systems. Willdan will also continue to implement ADA requirements in the City's right-of-way projects and enforce ADA requirements in private developments.

Engineers Structural Engineers Relevant Project Experience Association of Southern California (SEAOSC) Caltrans District 7 Headquarters, Los Angles CA: Project Manager for this Earthquake Engineering award-winning $175 million design/build project at the intersection of First and Research Institute (SERI) Main Streets in downtown Los Angeles. The building is 14-story above street grades and consists of 4levels of basement parking with footprints immediately against the adjacent streets. Excavation of the subterranean parking extended to approximately 60 feet below street grade. A temporary shoring system consisted of soldier beam and lagging were used to support the streets during excavation of the subterranean parking. More than 700 tiebacks were installed to provide additional support of the shoring system. Recommendations were provided for the foundation system consisting of conventional shallowfootings to support the building with column load exceeding 2200 kips. Both static and dynamic earth pressure were provided for designing the basement walls. A gravity flow sub-floor groundwater removal system capable of removing up to 250 gpm was designed to remove unknown groundwater source encountered during construction. The design and construction of the system did not cause delay of the construction schedule. Renee and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall, Costa Mesa, CA: Project Manager for this recently completed $200 million award-winning project. The planning for this project started in the late 90s. The building consisted of a seven-level building with a 20-foot deep basement. The presence of highly compressible clay at the basement level and shallow groundwater posed major geotechnical issues for this project. Due to the high groundwater, the basement of the building was designed to function as a "boat" and thus is subject to permanent hydrostatic uplift pressure. Removing groundwater was not considered prudent for this site because of presence of contaminated groundwater and the increasingly stringent environmental regulations for disposal of groundwater.
