CC - Item 5C - Consideration for Approval of a Professional Design Services Agreement for Walnut Grove Avenue Phase 2 and Valley Boulevard Roadway Improvements ProjectROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL STAFF ]REPORT TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: BEN KIM, CITY MANAGER </kV DATE: JANUARY 27, 2026 SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION FOR APPROVAL OF A PROFESSIONAL DESIGN SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR WALNUT GROVE AVENUE PHASE 2 AND VALLEY BOULEVARD ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT SUMMARY The City's Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) allocated funds for comprehensive roadway improvements along Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard. On July 15, 2025, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for design services and received seven submissions. Each proposal was evaluated and ranked based on experience, qualifications, references, pricing, and innovation. Staff recommends that the City Council approve the selection of RKA Consulting Group, Inc. and authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Design Services Agreement in the amount of $565,680.00. BACKGROUND Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard play critical roles in Rosemead's roadway network, serving as key corridors for both local and regional connectivity. Walnut Grove Avenue provides a vital north -south link to both Interstate 10 and State Route 60, supporting commuter traffic and access to the broader San Gabriel Valley. Valley Boulevard functions as one -of -two primary east - west major arterials and an important alternative to regional freeways during peak travel hours. Enhancements along both Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard are essential to improve traffic flow, safety, and the overall visual character of these key corridors. As part of the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Capital Improvement Program, the City has allocated approximately $8.8 million to enhance roadway infrastructure along both corridors. The proposed project includes a set of core elements designed to address essential roadway needs, as well as optional design features that could enhance aesthetics and usability. The Core improvements include: Roadway resurfacing: Key roadway segments will be resurfaced with new asphalt overlays and repaired for underlying issues, creating smoother, safer driving conditions and reducing vehicle wear. AGENDA ITEM 5.0 City Council Meeting January 27, 2026 Page 2 of 8 • ADA upgrades: Curb ramps, improved crosswalks, and tactile warning surfaces will be installed to meet ADA standards, providing safer, more accessible routes for pedestrians and those with mobility challenges. • Pavement markings: Fresh lane lines, crosswalks, and directional arrows will be applied to enhance visibility and improve traffic flow, especially in low -light conditions. • Utility access cover adjustments: Manholes and utility covers will be leveled and aligned with the new roadway surface to ensure a smooth ride and prevent hazards to vehicles. • Signage Improvements: Old, faded signs will be replaced with new, upgraded traffic signage along the corridor. • LA County Fire Crossing Enhancements: Crossing improvements will ensure emergency vehicles can navigate ingress and egress onto Valley Blvd efficiently and safely. Optional improvements include: Landscaped raised center medians: Traffic study will evaluate installation of raised center medians with landscaping to enhance aesthetics, improve traffic flow, reduce left -turn collisions, while maintaining business access, and preserve street parking. The study will also consider removing the existing median on Walnut Grove Avenue at Valley Boulevard to optimize parking and business access. Protected bicycle lanes: A bicycle feasibility analysis will evaluate the impacts of protected bicycle lanes on safety and traffic patterns. The assessment will focus on bicycle facility types like curb -protected lanes, buffer -separated lanes, and shared -use paths, considering street geometry, curb -to -curb width, right-of-way, intersection treatments, and on -street parking impacts. • City entry monuments: Conceptual designs for attractive city entry monuments will be developed to create welcoming gateways that showcase community identity and enhance major entry points. Given that the project consists of two components: Core and Optional, staff conducted a thorough evaluation of two design approaches, concurrent and sequential, carefully considering factors such as alignment with City priorities, maintaining a reliable project schedule, and ensuring continued eligibility for federal funding. Based on this evaluation, staff recommends a concurrent design approach. Under this approach, the Core project design would advance while the Optional elements are evaluated separately and later presented to the City Council for direction before final design completion. This approach allows the City to maintain progress toward the December 31, 2026, federal funding obligation deadline while still ensuring that sensitive design elements receive appropriate Council review. Failure to meet this deadline would result in the lapse of federal funds, placing the project at risk of losing critical funding support. The selected consultant, upon contract award, will begin designing the core project elements while simultaneously conducting feasibility studies for the optional elements. These studies will undergo review by the Traffic and Beautification Commissions. The optional elements, along with the feedback from the commissions, will then be presented to the City Council during a study session City Council Meeting January 27, 2026 Page 3 of 8 to receive direction. Based on the Council's guidance, optional elements may either be incorporated into the final design through an amendment or excluded from the project entirely. No optional elements will be included without the explicit approval of the Council. While the optional elements must be resolved before final design completion, they do not need to be resolved before design work begins. Advancing both efforts in parallel helps avoid delays that could jeopardize federal funding. A fully sequential approach, studying optional elements first and delaying design, would significantly increase the risk of missing the federal funding deadline. This approach balances schedule protection, fiscal responsibility, and Council oversight, while preserving the City's eligibility for $1,280,000 in STPL funds. DISCUSSION On July 15, 2025, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for professional design services. Staff posted the RFP on the City's Planet Bids Portal, inviting engineering consulting firms to submit proposals. The goal of the RFP was to secure a qualified firm to provide professional design services and develop the plans, specifications, and estimates (PS&E) for the Walnut Grove Avenue Phase 2 and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project. On September 4, 2025, the City received a total of seven (7) proposals from the following consultants: No. Firm Location Core Fee Optional Total 1 Kreuzer Consulting Group Irvine, CA $380,153.00 $1185810.00 $4989963.00 2 AYCE Consulting Eng. Santa Ana, CA $557,698.00 $50,000.00 $6079698.00 3 ERSC, Inc. Redlands, CA $5955309.25 $180,781.00 $7769090.25 4 RKA Consulting Group Walnut, CA $565,680.00 $2331300.00 $7989980.00 5 Bowman Consulting Brea, CA $624,234.00 $240,143.00 $8649377.00 6 Onward Engineering Anaheim, CA $670,634.75 $2135683.25 $8849318.00 7 RICK Engineering Irvine, CA $699,243.00 $224,022.00 1 $923,265.00 Following receipt of the submissions, a panel comprised of Public Works Department staff, which included the Director, the City Engineer, and the Engineering Associate, undertook a thorough review and evaluation. The proposals were assessed and ranked based on their completeness, considering the following criteria: Evaluation Criteria Max Points Experience and Qualifications 30 References and Performance 20 Responsiveness and Completeness 25 Pricing and Cost Proposal 10 Demonstration of Innovation 10 Community Benefit 5 City Council Meeting January 27, 2026 Page 4 of 8 As part of the RFP process, the top proposers were invited to participate in interviews to further discuss their proposals and qualifications. During the interviews, each firm was given the opportunity to present their design approach, highlight relevant project experience, and answer detailed questions. The evaluation panel focused on assessing the firms' ability to meet project requirements, communicate effectively, and demonstrate creative solutions to potential challenges. Following the interviews, the panel reconvened to further discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each firm, with particular attention to their presentations and responsiveness during the interview sessions. This step in the process allowed the review team to narrow the field to the most qualified design firm for the project. The evaluation process was thorough and comprehensive. Each proposal was scored independently and then collectively reviewed to ensure fairness and consistency in the evaluation process. None of the firms proposed community benefits. The results of the evaluation are outlined below in order of rank, followed by a summary of each proposer's strengths, priority, and alignment with the City's expectations. s(7' i QY 4� `�yfi ' r- G wqj `D ° % ��' G AQ �' ;o'� : �A Rank Firm Total 1 RKA Consulting Group 24.7 18.4 20 7 6.3 0 76.4 2 Bowman Consulting Group 23.7 16.6 20.7 5 8 0 74 3 AYCE Consulting Engineers 18.3 15 21 9.3 7 0 70.6 4 Onward Engineering 22.3 17.6 19 5.7 5.3 0 69.9 5 Rick Engineering 24.7 14.2 20.3 4 6.7 0 69.9 6 ERSC, Inc. 21.3 14.6 20 8 5.7 0 69.6 7 Kreuzer Consulting Group 18.7 15.2 20 10 1 3 0 66.9 RKA Consulting Group, founded in 1981, is a multidisciplinary civil engineering and municipal services firm based in Walnut, California. With 44 years of experience, the firm has provided services to more than 65 cities and public agencies across Southern California. Their team of 40 professionals specializes in street rehabilitation, transportation engineering, capital improvements, traffic design, stormwater management, municipal infrastructure, inspections, and construction management. RKA has notable experience working with the City of Rosemead, including design services for a federally funded Safe Routes to School (SRTS) street improvement project along Walnut Grove. The firm has a thorough understanding of federal obligation processes and requirements. RKA has proposed a strong staff of professionals that would be dedicated exclusively to Rosemead's proj ect. City Council Meeting January 27, 2026 Page 5 of 8 Bowman Consulting Group is a nationally recognized professional services firm with over 30 years of experience in engineering, infrastructure, environmental management, energy, and real estate solutions. The firm operates 106 offices nationwide and employs 2,300 people, including 395 professional engineers and 130 fully equipped field survey crews. Bowman offers a comprehensive range of services, such as civil and transportation engineering, landscape architecture, surveying, geotechnical engineering, and environmental consulting. Although the firm has recent experience working with the City of Rosemead on inspection and construction management for three CIP projects, it has not provided design services, and its proposal was among the highest costs. AYCE Consulting Engineers Inc., established in 2015, is a certified MBE/WBE/SBE/DBE firm specializing in transportation planning, design, and construction management for infrastructure projects across Southern California. With over 50 years of combined experience, AYCE proposed a full staff who have worked on similar projects, including roadway and intersection improvements, ADA upgrades, active transportation corridors, and utility relocations. The firm has experience with federal Caltrans-compliant PS&E packages, leveraging innovative tools like Interactive Digital Twinning for enhanced design quality assurance and cost optimization. AYCE has collaborated with agencies such as Caltrans, LA Metro, and OCTA, but has limited experience with municipalities and has not provided services for the City of Rosemead. Staff found their pricing to be competitive, though they noted it was not in alignment with specific requested tasks. Onward Engineering is an experienced firm specializing in professional consulting and design services for public works and infrastructure projects. Established in 2004, Onward has completed projects of similar scope for various Southern California cities, focusing on street rehabilitation, underground utility improvements, and municipal infrastructure. The firm employs advanced technologies such as Civil 31), laser scanning, and drone mapping to ensure precision and efficiency in design and project execution. Onward proposed a team of experienced professionals, including registered engineers, surveyors, and environmental consultants, bringing decades of expertise in roadway, pavement, ADA compliance, and utility design. However, Onward does not have prior experience working with the City of Rosemead, and its cost proposal was among the highest received. RICK Engineering Company is a multidisciplinary firm with over 70 years of experience delivering engineering, planning, and design services to public and private sector clients. With a team of over 440 professionals across 11 offices, RICK specializes in roadway design, traffic engineering, landscape architecture, ADA improvements, utility coordination, and PS&E preparation. The firm has experience managing projects that require coordination with local, state, and federal regulations, including Caltrans Local Assistance compliance. RICK has completed numerous similar projects in pavement rehabilitation, landscape medians, traffic safety, gateway monument design, stormwater management, and community engagement. However, RICK's cost proposal was the highest received and found to be out -of -line when compared to the overall spread. In City Council Meeting January 27, 2026 Page 6 of 8 addition, the proposal did not include strong project references and provided no prior experience directly with the City. Engineering Resources of Southern California, Inc. (ERSC) is an experienced civil engineering firm with over 29 years of service to municipalities, regional agencies, and special districts across Southern California. The firm specializes in civil site design, transportation, drainage, flood control, water resources, and municipal services. ERSC has completed projects of similar scope, including pavement rehabilitation, street improvements, ADA compliance upgrades, traffic signal systems, and hydrology studies. The firm proposed a team of experienced professionals, including licensed engineers, surveyors, and project managers, supported by a network of specialized subconsultants. However, ERSC does not have prior experience working with the City of Rosemead, and its cost proposal was among the highest received. While their pricing was found to be competitive, it was not in alignment with specific requested tasks related to the federal construction authorization process. Kreuzer Consulting Group (KCG) is an experienced firm specializing in public works projects, particularly streetscape enhancements, street rehabilitation, and urban renewal initiatives. With over 40 years of expertise, KCG has worked on similar projects, including transportation and civil projects, project management, and hands-on principal involvement. KCG's team comprises seasoned professionals with extensive experience in civil engineering, landscape architecture, geotechnical engineering, environmental planning, and traffic signal design. KCG submitted the lowest cost proposal, however, the proposal was somewhat unresponsive to several of the specific tasks outlined in the request for proposals. Key sections lacked sufficient detail connecting their approach to the City's requirements, and some requested deliverables were not clearly addressed. In addition, the proposal did not include strong project references and provided no prior experience directly with the City, leaving staff with limited assurance of the firm's ability to meet the City's expectations on similar projects. Before finalizing staff s recommendation, a City Council study session was held on December 9, 2025. During the meeting, the Council provided valuable feedback on key elements of the project. Specifically, the Council raised concerns about the optional improvements, including the proposed landscaped raised center medians and bicycle lanes. In response, these optional design elements will be evaluated through separate studies, which will be reviewed by the Traffic and Beautification Commissions. The optional elements, along with the commissions' feedback, will then be presented to the City Council during a study session for direction before they are incorporated into the final design. Staff recommends a concurrent design approach. Under this approach, the core project design will continue to advance while the optional elements are evaluated separately and later brought to the City Council for review and direction. This strategy allows the City to maintain progress toward the December 31, 2026, federal funding obligation deadline while ensuring that sensitive design elements receive appropriate Council consideration. City Council Meeting January 27, 2026 Page 7 of 8 Based on the evaluation process, interviews, and subsequent study session, staff recommends RKA Consulting Group as the most qualified consultant. RKA submitted a complete proposal in the required format that also conveyed their project understanding and approach. Furthermore, RKA submitted a proposal that detailed the necessary experience and qualifications that were requested in the Request for Proposals. Reference checks were also conducted and resulted in positive comments regarding RKA's competence and performance in providing similar services for other municipal agencies. RKA Consulting Group's total cost is $798,980.00, which includes the fees for the geotechnical reports, hydrology analysis, landscape conceptual design, irrigation design, and other optional items that are largely related to the design of the center medians. However, since the project scope was limited to only the traffic study prior to designing the medians, these line items were excluded from the project, resulting in a reduced total cost in the amount of $565,680.00. Staff recommends that the City Council approve a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with RKA Consulting Group and authorize the City Manager to execute the PSA for an amount of $56500.00 If the design contract is awarded, staff will present preliminary design plans to the Council during a future study session. The session will highlight key design features and review findings from the analysis and feasibility studies for both the raised center medians and bicycle lanes. Afterward, based on City Council feedback, staff may return to Council to amend the agreement to incorporate the full design of medians, bicycle lanes, and city entry monuments into the plans before directing the consultant to prepare the final construction documents. STAFF RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council approve the selection of RKA Consulting Group and authorize the City Manager to execute a Professional Design Services Agreement in the amount of $565,680.00 FISCAL IMPACT The projects were included in the approved Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget. There is sufficient Gas Tax funding allocated to the projects to cover the proposed design phase budget in the amount of $565,680.00. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The proposed action involves approval of design services only and does not constitute approval of a specific construction project. Therefore, this action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines. Environmental review will be conducted as part of the design phase to determine the appropriate level of environmental documentation. The results of this review, including the applicable CEQA determination, will be presented to the City Council in a future staff report prior to construction approval.

Issued by: Department of Public Works, City of Rosemead Page 1 CITY OF ROSEMEAD REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS FOR ENGINEERING AND DESIGN SERVICES FOR THE PREPARATION OF PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS AND ESTIMATES FOR WALNUT GROVE AVENUE RESURFACING PHASE 2 AND VALLEY BLVD RESURFACING PROJECT A. INTRODUCTION/OBJECTIVE The purpose of this Request of Proposals (RFP) is to select the most -qualified Consultant to provide Engineering and Design Services for the Preparation of Plans, Specifications and Estimates for Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase 2 (Project #21030) and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project (Project #21031) RFP No. 2025- 06. The City seeks to obtain these services under a Professional Services Agreement. B. BACKGROUND ABOUT THE CITY The City of Rosemead is an urban suburb located in the San Gabriel Valley, 10 miles east of downtown Los Angeles. It is bounded on the north by the cities of Temple City and San Gabriel, on the west by Monterey Park, Alhambra, and the unincorporated Los Angeles County, on the south by Montebello, and by El Monte and South El Monte on the east. The City is 5.5 square miles (2,344-acres) in size. Rosemead is a working-class suburb with a diverse population base. According to the 2021 Census, the City had a population of 50,245. The estimated makeup of the City was 4.7% White, 0.3% African American, 60.3% Asian, 33% Hispanic/Latino (of any race), and 0.7% Non -Hispanic Other. As a substantially built -out city, Rosemead only added 259 residents to its population during the last decade (2000-2010). Rosemead's appeal as a new kind of small town in the heart of an urban environment is accomplished by honoring tradition, uniting in diversity, and evolving for the future. This is evident in Rosemead's Key Organizational Goals which aim to: improve public areas including infrastructure and community facilities; enhance public safety and the overall community environment and opportunities for residents through programs, services, education, and recreation; and ensure the City's financial stability in order to continually meet these goals and provide basic services to the community. Rosemead Boulevard, Walnut Grove Avenue, San Gabriel Boulevard, and Del Mar Avenue are the major north -south roadways within the City. All four major north -south roads provide connections to interstate 10. In addition, San Gabriel Boulevard connects to SR-60 within the southern area of the City. Valley Boulevard, Garvey Avenue, Graves Avenue, and Rush Street are the major east -west roadways within the City. Although these arterials often act as relief valves to the freeways during peak Page 2 commute periods, they also provide good alternative throughout the San Gabriel Valley. Currently, there i s The existing bicycle route network within Rosemead, and the potential future bicycle network, is illustrated in the 2010 Rosemead General Plan Update (See Exhibit 2 on page 14 of this document for Existing Bicycle Routes and Potential Future Routes). As stated in the 2010 Rosemead General Plan Update "Circulation Element" and Bicycle Transportation Plan "Final Draft, April 24, 2012", it is ideal to place bicycle lanes on low -volume roadways that traverse the City. Valley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue are both identified as a potential bicycle route in the 2010 Rosemead General Plan Update. No further study has been conducted to confirm that Valley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue will be appropriate for the provision of bicycle facilities. See Exhibit 3 on page 1 for a view of project limits. The existing raised center medians along Walnut Grove Avenue between Valley Boulevard and San Gabriel Boulevard currently consist of medians with a mix of cobble stone and trees. These existing raised center medians were installed in 2015 and consisted of a mix of cobble stone, shrubs, flowers, mulch, and trees. There are no current raised center medians located along Valley Boulevard from west City limit to east City limit. C. DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT AND SERVICES The purpose of this Request of Proposals (RFP) is to select the most -qualified Consultant to provide Engineering and Design Services for the Preparation of Plans, Specifications and Estimates for Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase 2 (Project #21030) and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project (Project #21031) RFP No. 2025- 06.

If Consultant's existing coverage includes a deductible or self -insured retention, the deductible or self -insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Consultant, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self -insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions. 12. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Consultant ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Consultant, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City. 13. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. 14. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Consultant of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard. 15. Consultant will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect. 16. Consultant shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from Consultant's insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five days of the expiration of the coverages. 17. The provisions of any workers' compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Consultant under this agreement.

Requirements of specific coverage features, or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue, and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all inclusive. 19. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such. 20. The requirements in this Section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Section. 21. Consultant agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Consultant for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto. Consultant agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Consultant arising out of the work performed under this agreement.

Together, these efforts will deliver critical infrastructure upgrades along two of the City's most heavily traveled arterial corridors: - Walnut Grove Avenue -from Marshall Street to San Gabriel Boulevard - Valley Boulevard -from Charlotte Avenue to Eaton Wash (West City Limit to East City Limit) Existing Conditions F I i Valley Boulevard is classified as a major arterial roadway that traverses the City of Rosemead from west to east, with project Limits extending from the west City limit at Charlotte Avenue (bordering San Gabriel) to the east City limit at Eaton Wash (bordering El Monte). This corridor serves as Rosemead's primary business district, supporting a wide range of commercial activity and providing direct access to numerous retail, dining, and service establishments. Notable destinations along the corridor include Gold World Plaza, Empire Commercial Center, Rosemead City Hall, the Savannah Cemetery, and the corporate headquarters of The Gill Corporation International. The roadway cross section is generally consistent throughout the corridor, and includes two travel lanes in each direction with on -street parking and sidewalks on both sides. The opposing directions of travel are separated by a striped two-way left -turn median lane. Walnut Grove Avenue is classified as a minor/major arterial roadway running north -south through the City, with project limits extending from Marshall Avenue at the north end to San Gabriel Boulevard at the south end. This corridor 0r ' serves numerous residential f neighborhoods and apartment complexes and provides direct access to both the 1-10 and SR-60 freeways. As r Notable destinations along the segment include Willard Elementary School, the Rosemead Education Center, Southern California Edison Headquarters, Whittier Narrows Golf Course, and Wa lm a rt. The roadway section consists of two travel lanes with sidewalks along both sides for the entire segment. Separation between opposing traffic varies, including simple centerline striping, striped medians, and raised landscaped medians. Several segments also include curbside parking areas. 1 APPROACH, SCOPE OF WORK & SCHEDULE These corridors are essential to Rosemead's transportation network, functioning as primary commuter routes, commercial spines, and gateways to the community. Both roadway segments provide connections to regional routes such as 1-10 and SR-60, and serve a mix of residential, commercial, and institutional land uses. The planned improvements will address pavement rehabilitation, accessibility, multimodal connectivity, and corridor aesthetics —supporting the City's vision for safe, sustainable, and visually distinctive roadways. Project Improvements RKA assumes the project will include the following improvements: • Design & implement pavement rehabilitation & maintenance along both corridors • Evaluate and design replacement of non -compliant ADA curb ramps along both corridors • Evaluate and design replacement of damaged concrete flatwork, including sidewalk, curb, curb & gutter, and gutters along both corridors • Design and installation of Colored Concrete Crosswalks at major intersections along both corridors • Evaluation and Design of New On -Street Bicycle Facilities along both corridors • Design and Installation of New Raised Medians with Stormwater Capture Capabilities along Valley Boulevard only • Design and Installation of Stormwater Capture Facilities within Existing Medians along Walnut Grove Avenue only • Design and Installation of City Entry Monuments at Three total locations along Valley Boulevard (west and east City limits plus one additional location) • Design and Installation of Overhead Flashing Beacon for LA County Fire Station 42 on Valley Boulevard The overarching goal of this project is to develop a complete, coordinated, and constructible Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) package that has been reviewed and approved by all required regulatory agencies. This PS&E will be fully ready for bidding, enabling the City to move seamlessly into the construction phase using STP-L federal funding. By combining technical excellence and a strong understanding of constructability,we will deliver a design package that supports the City's vision while minimizing construction impacts and maximizing long-term value. Project Approach RKA's approach to the Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing projects is built around the understanding that successful project delivery requires more than simply meeting technical requirements —it demands careful planning, clear communication, and strategic design decisions that anticipate construction needs and community priorities. The following highlight's our approach to the critical elements of the project that will be essential to achievingthe City's objectives. Bike Facility Design The City's 2010 General Plan and 2012 Bicycle Transportation Plan identify both Valley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue as priority bicycle corridors, recognizing their strategic role in connecting neighborhoods, commercial districts, and community facilities. To support this vision, our team will conduct a feasibility assessment to determine the most appropriate bicycle facility type for each corridor. This assessment will be guided by the Caltrans Highway Design Manual, the NACTO Urban Bikeway Design Guide, and current safety and design research. 2 J APPROACH, SCOPE OF WORK & SCHEDULE RKA= CONSULTING GROUP As part of our proposal effort, RKA has already performed a preliminary feasibility assessment by evaluating the existing cross sections along both corridors. For both segments, it is assumed that existing curb -to -curb widths and on -street parking will be maintained: Valley Blvd (Typical cross section throughout project limits) 76' (CURB FACE TO CURB U NE OUTERTRAVEL TWILT EL OUTER TRAVEL LANERSIE WD I EL LAN STRIPED MEDIANI I LAN RSIDE PARKING PARKING u - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- VALLEY BLVD EXISTING CROSS SECTION 76' (CURB FACE TO CURB FACE) 7' 5' 10' 11' 10' 11' 10' 5' 7' PARKING BL TRAVEL TRAVEL NEW RAISED TRAVEL 1 TRAVEL BL PARKING LANE LANE MEDIAN LANE LANE - - - - - - - F' - - - - - - VALLEY BLVD PROPOSED CROSS SECTION Walnut Grove Ave (Three distinct typical sections throughout project limits) 64' (CURB FACE TO CURB FACE) 12' 11' 10' 11' 20' TRAVEL TRAVEL TWLT TRAVEL OUTER TRAVEL LANE LANE LANE STRIPED LANE W/ CURBSIDE MEDIAN PARKING - - - - - - - - - - - WALNUT GROVE AVE EXISTING CROSS SECTION A 64'(CURB FACE TO CURB FACE) 18' 11' 10' 11' 14' TRAVEL TRAVEL TWLT TRAVEL TRAVEL LANE LANE STRIPED LANE LANE MEDIAN �- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - --� WALNUT GROVE AVE EXISTING CROSS SECTION B 64' (CURB FACE TO CURB FACE) 64'(CURB FACE TO CURB FACE) 2' BUFFER 3' 2' BUFFER - 2' BUFFER 2' BUFFER 5' 10' 10' 10' 10' 5' 7' 5' 10' 10' 10' 10' BL TRAVEL TRAVEL TRAVEL TRAVEL BL PARKING TRAVEL TRAVEL TRAVEL TRAVEL TRAVEL LANE LANE LANE LANE LANE LANE LANE LANE LANE - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - WALNUT GROVE AVE EXISTING CROSS SECTION A WALNUT GROVE AVE EXISTING CROSS SECTION B 64' (CURB FACE TO CURB FACE) 20' 12' 12' 20' OUTER TRAVEL LANE TRAVEL TRAVEL OUTER TRAVEL LANE W/ CURBSIDE LANE LANE W/ CURBSIDE PARKING PARKING - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ---r-fl WALNUT GROVE AVE EXISTING CROSS SECTION C 64' (CURB FACE TO CURB FACE) 7' 5' 10' 1 10' 10' 1 10' 5' 7' PARKING I BL TRAVEL TRAVEL TRAVEL TRAVEL BL PARKING LANE LANE LANE LANE E- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - WALNUT GROVE AVE PROPOSED CROSS SECTION C 3 APPROACH, SCOPE OF WORK & SCHEDULE The assessment indicates that at a minimum, Class II bike lanes are feasible along both Valley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue, with opportunities for Class II buffered lanes or Class IV separated bikeways along Sections A and B of Walnut Grove Avenue. It is important to note that these facilities would require the use of narrower -than -standard travel lanes for arterial roadways. RKA will work collaboratively with the City to refine these concepts, evaluate trade-offs between mobility, safety, and community priorities, and determine the preferred bicycle facility type to advance into final design. Raised Medians and Stormwater Capture Design The introduction of raised landscaped medians along Valley Boulevard and the enhancement of existing medians along Walnut Grove Avenue present an opportunity to address multiple City objectives within a single design element —traffic safety, corridor aesthetics, and stormwater quality improvement. From a traffic operations standpoint, raised medians will replace the existing two-way left -turn lane along Valley Boulevard, reducing mid -block conflicts and calming traffic. From an aesthetic perspective, the landscaped medians will serve as prominent visual elements along two of Rosemead's most significant corridors, creating visually distinctive, climate -appropriate, and low -maintenance landscapes that reinforce the City's identity. Our approach integrates functionality, sustainability, and aesthetics to deliver durable, high -impact public realm improvements. • Climate -Appropriate Planting — Median planting palettes will emphasize drought -tolerant, native, and regionally adapted species that provide seasonal color, texture, and ecological benefits while minimizing water use and long-term maintenance. • Cohesive Streetscape Design — Planting, hardscape, and irrigation will be coordinated with City Entry Monuments and adjacent roadway improvements to ensure visual consistency and functional integration. Equally important, the medians will be designed as green infrastructure, capturing and treating roadway runoff through features such as bioretention areas, curb cuts, and rain gardens. These measures will comply with Los Angeles County stormwater standards, support the City's MS4 Permit compliance, and contribute to long-term water quality improvement. By combining traffic safety improvements, aesthetic enhancements, and stormwater management into a unified design, this element will transform the corridors into safer, greener, and more distinctive public spaces while advancing the City's transportation, sustainability, and environmental stewardship goals. Pavement Rehabilitation Based on the RFP-reported Pavement Condition Index (PCI) ranges Valley Blvd: 64-80 and Walnut Grove Ave: 57-80— both corridors are generally in Fair to Good condition. RKA's performed a pre -proposal field walk and visually confirmed these conditions, with distress concentrated at intersection approaches, utility trench crossings, and isolated wheel -path areas. Therefore, our baseline treatment strategy is a mill and overlay with localized structural dig -outs, targeted to address base failures while preserving serviceable sections and minimizing disruption. 4 APPROACH, SCOPE OF WORK & SCHEDULE City Entry Monument Signs RKAver CONSULTING GROUP In support of this assumption and to fully explore the pavement rehabilitation options, our geotechnical subconsultant (Sladden Engineering) will perform existing pavement coring and R-Value testing as outlined in the Geotechnical & Pavement Evaluation task. The resulting geotechnical report will confirm overlay thickness, dig -out depths, and any Locations where heavier rehabilitation (e.g., FDR/partial reconstruction) is warranted. The project will create City entry monuments that serve as iconic gateway features and integral components of the streetscape. Our Landscape Architect subconsultant, MIG brings experience designing entry monumentation for the Cities of Pico Rivera and Downey, will develop designs that reflect Rosemead's cultural diversity, civic pride, and unique identity. • Distinctive Gateway Identity— Each monument will be designed to establish a strong sense of arrival, using forms, materials, and lighting that align with the City's character while providing long-term durability and ease of maintenance. • Integrated Streetscape Elements — Monuments will be coordinated with adjacent median landscaping, irrigation, and stormwater features to create a cohesive visual experience along Valley Boulevard. • Storytelling Through Design — Opportunities for incorporating cultural motifs, community history, and artistic detailingwill be explored to ensure the monuments are more than signage—theywill serve as lasting symbols of community heritage and pride. By embeddingthese design features into the physical infrastructure of the corridor, the entry monuments will function as both wayfinding elements and placemaking landmarks, supporting the City's vision for a welcoming and unified public realm. 5 APPROACH,RKA- CONSULTING GROUP Caltrans Local Assistance While the design phase will be funded locally, the construction phase will utilize Surface Transportation Program — Local (STP-L) funds, which require adherence to the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM). Building these requirements into the design process is essential to secure construction authorization and avoid delays. RKA will lead coordination with Caltrans District 7 Local Assistance, serving as the City's single point of contact and aligning submittals with the project schedule. We will guide the City from environmental clearance through the Request for Authorization (RFA) and E-76 obligation, ensuring all prerequisites are in place—NEPA/CEQA clearance, right-of-way and utility certifications (anticipated within existing ROW), and a PS&E package that conforms to federal -aid provisions. Our team includes Federal Funding Lead, Michael Lee, PE, QSD, who brings deep, hands-on experience with District 7 processes and will navigate agency reviews, consolidate comments, and keep documentation complete and audit -ready so funds are obligated on time. Additional information on our Funding Support Services is located in Section 3- Company Qualifications. Project Constructability The RKA team possesses expert understanding of the construction processes that will be integral to delivering a project that can be built efficiently and with minimal disruption to each corridor's businesses and institutions. Valley Boulevard, in particular, is a thriving commercial district with high volumes of customer, delivery, and transit activity, making business access and clear phasing considerations critical to the success of the project. Our design approach will incorporate constructability-focused strategies from the outset, including: • Phasing -Aware Design — Developing plans that accommodate logical construction sequencing to minimize lane closures and maintain two-way traffic where possible. • Clear & Constructable Construction Documents — Providing well -coordinated PS&E documents that reduce the likelihood of contractor uncertainty, change orders, and schedule impacts. • Coordination with Adjacent Projects and Events — Awareness of City event schedules, utility company work, and nearby construction to avoid cumulative disruptions to businesses and traffic flow. • Materials & Construction Methods - Evaluate the use of materials and construction methods that can be installed more quicklywhile maintaining durability and performance, such as fast -setting concrete mixes, precast median components, and optimized pavement rehabilitation techniques to reduce the number of working days. By applying construction knowledge and material selection strategies during the design phase, we ensure the improvements can be delivered with the least possible impact to corridor operations, preserving the economic vitality of local businesses while achieving the City's project goals. L. � J APPROACH, SCOPE OF WORK & SCHEDULE RKA- Scope ofWork CONSULTING GROUP Task 1 — Project Management 1.0 - Project Management & Coordination Our team's Project Manager, Bobby Lin, PE, QSD will serve as the primary liaison with City staff and will oversee all aspects of project delivery, including coordination of the design team and subconsultants, schedule and budget management, and adherence to the approved project scope. The project schedule will be developed and maintained in Microsoft Project, with updates provided to reflect progress, City review timelines, and key milestones. Monthly progress reports and invoices will be submitted in accordance with City requirements to ensure transparency and accountability. 1.1 - Project Progress Meetings • Predesign (Kick -Off) Meeting - Upon receipt of the Notice to Proceed, RKA will schedule and conduct an in -person kick-off meeting with City staff to introduce key personnel, confirm project scope and objectives, present the project schedule and milestone goals, and establish project expectations. • Biweekly Progress Meetings —We will coordinate and lead bi-weekly progress meetings (via Microsoft Teams) with City staff to review current work status, upcoming tasks, design issues, and any required City input. These meetings will provide a structured forum for addressing challenges early, tracking schedule adherence, and ensuring alignment with project objectives. • Design Review Meetings — RKA will facilitate design review meetings with City staff at the Conceptual/30%, 60%, 90%, and 100% design milestones. The Conceptual/30% meetings will focus on evaluating design alternatives, potential constraints and impacts (utilities, ROW, access, drainage), and cost implications, with the objective of selecting a preferred alternative to advance into final design. The 60%, 90%, and 100% meetings will confirm design progress, review consolidated City comments, and agree on required revisions for the next submittal. Agendas and meeting minutes will be prepared for each meeting. 1.2—Public Forum Meetings The project team will attend three (3) community workshops and one (1) City Council meeting, as needed, to present the conceptual designs developed for this project. Feedback from each meeting will be documented, reviewed with City staff, and incorporated into the design to ensure the final plans reflect community input and Council direction. Task 2 — Project Data Collection & Topographic Survey 2.0 — Project Data Collection & Existing Documents Review RKA will request and review all City -provided existing as -built drawings, utility records, and relevant studies to develop a thorough understanding of existing conditions within the project limits. This review will serve as the foundation for preliminary design and will ensure that critical existing infrastructure is accounted for in the PS&E development. 2.1 —Topographic Survey RKA's subconsultant, Kelsoe & Associates, will perform topographic survey services for this project. The survey will establish horizontal and vertical control at 50-foot intervals along both project corridors and will locate all existing above -ground features within the City right-of-way. The survey will also depict roadway centerlines, right-of-way boundaries, and property lines in accordance with record maps and assessor's data. 2.2—Fie ld Reviews Our design team will conduct a comprehensive field review of both project corridors to verify existing conditions against survey data. This field verification will confirm design assumptions, identify potential conflicts, and ensure that all existing deficiencies —such as pavement distress, ADA compliance gaps, and drainage issues —are documented and addressed in the design. 7 � J APPROACH, SCOPE OF WORK & SCHEDULE i RKA�rmM CONSULTING GROUP 2.3 — Utility Potholing Services (Optional) As an optional service, RKA's subconsultant, Kana Subsurface Engineering, will perform utility potholing services to verify the horizontal and vertical location of underground facilities that may conflict with the proposed improvements. These tasks include: Performing vacuum excavation for up to twelve (12) selected locations to expose utilities, measure size and depth, and record material type. • All locations are assumed to be within existing roadway pavement. Backfill with native and cold asphalt will be provided at each location. Preparing a Potholing Summary Report documenting findings, including photographs and field data. Task 3 — Utility & Stake Holder Coordination 3.0 — Utility Coordination & Base Mapping RKA will obtain an initial list of existing utilities within the project limits using DigAlert and the City's Database. We will prepare Utility "A" Letters on behalf of the City to send to utility companies within the project limits. The Utility "A" Letters will include a project description and request utility record maps to understand utilities within the project limits. Our team will track the date, contact person, phone number, and the documents received from utility companies in a Utility Coordination Matrix. This matrix will be updated and provided to the City to provide a status update of utility information received. To document the existing utility conditions within the project area, RKA will develop a Utility Base Map using survey information, field inventory, record drawing information, and underground utility maps provided by utility owners. We will prepare Utility "B" Letters to reflect the proposed improvements and to verify the locations of facilities as incorporated into the Utility Base Map. Potential conflicts will be identified, and follow-up will be conducted to resolve the conflicts or to coordinate relocation requirements. The matrix will be updated to capture this coordination. Following the 60% submittal, our team will prepare Utility "C" Letters to notify the owners and coordinate the utility contract documents in circumstances where facility adjustments and/or relocations are required. The matrix will be updated to capture utility coordination. 3.1 — LA County Coordination It is assumed that project improvements will likely impact Angeles County -owned facilities. RKA will coordinate directly with the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works (LACDPW) for review and approval of design elements impacting County infrastructure. This includes: • Channel Overcrossing Structures— Coordination will be required for proposed improvements at the Rubio Wash crossing on Valley Boulevard and the Alhambra Wash crossing on Walnut Grove Avenue. It is assumed that no major structural modifications will be necessary, and that work will be limited to pavement rehabilitation and striping within the bridge deck limits. • County Storm Drain Facilities —The design of new stormwater capture features along Valley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue may require tie-ins or modifications to existing Los Angeles County storm drain facilities within the project limits.

Approach and Scope of Work Effective execution of task order contracts requires clear delineation of work, streamlined communication and accountability of all stakeholders, as well as a collaborative approach with both internal resources and subconsultants. We are accustomed to serving our clients both on stand- alone projects as a dedicated consultant, as well as through staff augmentation roles, supporting our clients' needs for outside staffing. Accordingly, Bowman's approach to delivering a successful project within budget and on schedule begins with a clear understanding of the goals, scope, deliverables, finances, timeline, and involved stakeholders. On stand-alone projects, and based on this initial information provided to our team, we develop a project -specific management plan that delineates organizational structure, staffing, deliverables, and associated schedule, including progress and review meetings. As part of our approach to the execution of projects, it is imperative to understand several factors that may influence the project objectives, such as local site conditions, project -specific details, and performance requirements, client -driven operational needs, community interface, seasonal restrictions, safety requirements, timelines, and legislatively mandated criteria. It is with this understanding that for each task, we evaluate the critical objectives and obstacles; implement best practices approach, cost effective and practical solutions; and implement such through engagement in all phases of the project. Our successful execution efforts are aimed at matching the right skill set to the project task, thereby ensuring effective and efficient use of resources. At Bowman, we instill a culture of consistency and high -quality performance through the preservation of personnel continuity on tasks through the life of the project and the persistent pursuit of excellence through professional growth and innovation.

Project management services will include, but not be limited to a project kick-off meeting, project development meetings, monthly progress meetings, plan review meetings, preparing meeting agendas and minutes, updating City staff on project concerns, issues, and accomplishments, coordinating with other agencies and stakeholders, scheduling and making presentations before the public, City staff, and City Council. As appropriately included in the RFP, it will be essential for our team to meet and confer with City staff periodically during the preliminary design phase to resolve design issues and ensure continuity with City standards and preferences. Our project manager, Amir Farahani, PE,TE was the City Traffic Engineer for the City of Orange and knows how to communicate regularly with the City's project manager and other stakeholders. His experience with managing, designing, and hosting community engagement events for municipal projects will be highly valuable in making these efforts successful. Bowman Bowman's project management approach is tailored to provide a quality product on time and on budget. A key to achieving that outcome is a clear understanding and communication of project scope, deliverables, and schedule. To that end, Bowman will refine our Project Management Plan (PMP) in consultation with the City to clearly define the project scope, team organization and responsibilities, project approach and key issues, project schedule and major milestones. A PMP is a valuable communication tool to keep the design team and all project stakeholders appraised on key elements of the project. We understand that the City's staff and potentially other stakeholders will be an integral part of the delivery for every project that is assigned to Bowman. In order to clarify and define expectations at the beginning of each task, the following information will be included in our PMP: Document controls and communication protocols A detailed project schedule including delivery milestones A budget summary with costs defined for each activity A QA/QC plan for internal quality reviews A staffing plan with the roles and responsibilities of team members i4 PLAN MANAGE ® DELIVER [riabluhanL��aivztiaipr `� CollaboratevaithyourTeam Deliver On -Time Utilize [he Right Expertise Maintain Quality v Proactive Permitting Process De Document cisions Cast ERccuvc Solutions Initiate Project Kickoff / Chartering Meeting Communication and collaboration are the key elements for every successful project. This starts with a pre -design (kick-off) meeting to confirm goals, objectives, and vision to be achieved through this project. This meeting will also be used to identify existing resources, agree on the schedule of deliverables, and refine the implementation process. The agenda for the kickoff meeting will include the following: • Introduction of key members from our team and the City to identify roles and responsibilities • Review the scope and milestones such as field activities and deliverables in the schedule • Identify stakeholders to be involved with the project including the local community and regulatory agencies • Discuss ongoing / planned community outreach programs • Ensure that all pertinent documentation and record plans that are available within the project area are obtained by our design team • Establish an ongoing action item list and risk register to be maintained throughout the project Hold Regular Progress Meetings On a bi-weekly basis, we will conduct progress meetings either virtually or in person with the design team and the City's project team. In this meeting we will review the status Bowman I City of Rosemead PS&E for Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing and Valley Blvd. I September4, 2025 of the project, the progress made since the last meeting and review upcoming planned activities. The meeting will also include required action items and issues requiring resolution to maintain the schedule. Bowman will maintain meeting minutes and distribute to all participants subsequent to the meeting. In addition to the bi-weekly meetings, Bowman will coordinate meetings with City staff to review and discuss all submittals such as preliminary design, 60%, 90%, 100% and any traffic or hydrology reports. Regular check -in communications between the project team and City staff will be opportunities to address technical questions, project goals and priorities. At this same time, these regular check -ins provide an opportunity to pivot, if needed, to address evolving needs. Our team is ready and able to work collaboratively with City staff throughout the project through open communication to meet milestones to identify and address developing needs. Set Up a Collaborative Document Sharing Drive Bowman proposes that all documents, deliverables, and schedules be posted into a team site such as SharePoint, OneDrive, or similar shared document system to enable full access and collaboration by all involved project stakeholders. This will allow all participants to have full visibility into the activities during the entire duration of the project. During construction, a formalized document control system will be maintained by Bowman using a system acceptable to the City. Bowman utilizes C-MIS document control program, which is an online, sharing platform, allowing all participants to view and post documents in real time. Executive summaries of all monthly activities will be uploaded to the team site and submitted with each monthly invoice. Schedule Management Bowman Consulting Group has a proven history of consistently meeting clients'schedules.Timely execution of work is one of the most influential factors for obtaining repeat work from both government and commercial clients. We emphasize the importance in meeting schedules with our management, design and support teams. Keys to meeting schedules include the following: Early planning sessions with essential personnel Bowman • Establishing milestones with dates • Assigning experienced and sufficient staff • Tracking progress and resources with our internal management system • Making updates and taking corrective actions • Holding the deadline! Stakeholder Engagement Bowman shall attend a minimum of three (3) workshops and One (1) City Council meeting to present City Entry Monument design and proposed bicycle lane. Engaging internal and external stakeholders effectively is essential for project success. Our methodology for soliciting and documenting stakeholder views ensures transparent communication, inclusivity, and informed decision -making. To maintain a clear record of stakeholder input, meeting summaries are meticulously documented, capturing key concerns, recommendations, and action items. Stakeholder feedback reports are developed, summarizing the input received and demonstrating how it informs project decisions. Interactive dashboards are also utilized to track stakeholder concerns, responses, and project progress, ensuring transparency and accessibility of information for all relevant parties. Integrating stakeholder feedback into decision -making is essential for ensuring project success and stakeholder satisfaction. Insights gathered from stakeholders are incorporated into project design and implementation strategies, ensuring that identified concerns are adequately addressed. Response strategies are developed to mitigate any potential issues, aligning project plans with City objectives. To maintain transparency, stakeholder feedback summaries are published, showcasing how stakeholder input has influenced project outcomes and reinforcing a collaborative decision -making approach. QA / QC Program Bowman's quality management practice is anchored first on the commitment and performance by highly trained and experienced staff, each well -aligned with their discipline of work. This staffing commitment is paired with our detailed and robust Quality by Design (QBD) program that involves two actions: Quality Control first, followed by Quality Assurance. Bowman operates with the understanding that quality is built in, not added on. In addition, Bowman Bowman I City of Rosemead PS&E for Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing and Valley Blvd. I September4, 2025 continuously reviews its quality management procedures and practices, updating them to incorporate industry's best practices as they evolve, as well as implementing lessons learned from past projects.

KICK OFF MEETINGSME PARTICIPATES SITE VISITITE EARLY OESIGN REVIEW MEETINGSME PARTICIPATES � - � PRE -SUBMISSION PE REVIEW 1STSUBMISSION CONSTRUCTABILITY REVIEW •• • r SME: SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT QA/QCP: QUALITY ASSURANCE/CONTROL PROFESSIONAL PE: PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER Bowman Specifically, QA will be led by the Masoud Sepahi, PE, LEED GA. Masoud has over 35 years of experience in major capital improvement projects, and he has delivered many challenging projects for the Los Angeles Metro Transportation Authority, City of Los Angeles, Los Angeles world Airport and other local cities in the Southern California region. Some of the major projects that he has assisted delivering include the LAX/Crenshaw Transit line, LA PD Headquarter Building in downtown LA, multiple paving and facility improvement projects at LAX, LA Convention Center Expansion Program, in addition to many other capital improvement projects for the City of Placentia. He will be utilizing Bowman's proven QA procedures, overseeing the design and work products from all disciplines. Masoud will apply his many years of experience both in design and construction to verify the basis of design, contents of the deliverables, as well as conducting a formal constructability review and value engineering, if necessary. This process will also confirm that QA reviewers are independent of the team that produced the work products. Masoud's experience as the Director of Construction Management Division for Metro and as City Engineer for the City of Placentia provides him with a unique experience that enables him to not only ensure a higher quality design but to also lessen risk of project cost overruns, delays and excessive change orders. He has conducted constructability reviews on major capital projects, and he will be applying many of the lessons learned, to ensure plans and specifications are bid ready, without any ambiguities and redundancies. His experience working with outside regulatory agencies will be critical to the project's success. Quality Control QC will be led by discipline leaders appointed by the project manager, and it will involve a 100% review of all deliverable products such as surveys, reports, plans, specifications, calculations, cost estimates, and other work products. QC reviews are performed at all design development milestones and allow time to review, comment, and resolve issues or reconcile comments. Standardized checklists of work items are established at the start of the assigned task or project to develop a consistent metric of checking. QC includes multiple reviews including but not limited to the following: Bowman I City of Rosemead PS&E for Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing and Valley Blvd. I September4, 2025 4 Basis of Design —This review will include determination of applicable codes being used and accuracy of calculations Cost Estimates — At each stage of the design, Bowman will establish the cost to compare with the budget established for the project by the City. This will allow the City to evaluate and determine the scope based on available budgets and schedules. Project Baseline Schedule — As part of our QC process, we always, check to make sure that we can deliver the project on schedule, without delays. In coordination with other agencies, we always, identify timelines, so that we can expedite reviews to meet our baseline schedule. Interdisciplinary Coordination — This process involves reviews by management at each design phase, to avoid discrepancies on the plans, inconsistencies on the plans, lack of adequate cross-references and sections on the plans, and incomplete details. Accuracy and Clarity — We ensure full coordination of the plans with specifications, and to ensure there are no discrepancies. Constructability — Every project that we design goes through a full constructability review to ensure efficiency in construction and avoidance of conflicts. A key part of quality review is ensuring that site conditions such as existing utilities, topography, and structures are properly integrated in the design and that jurisdictional permitting requirements are incorporated to achieve plan review compliance. Before final delivery, a meeting is held with our Quality Assurance Manager and the designers, to review and finalize each work product. The goal is to ensure that the standard set at the beginning of the project has been achieved, and the goals have been reached. The review comments are recorded in customized project review checklists and placed in the project record. Subcontractor work products are incorporated into our review process and comments related to subcontractor work product are reconciled via separate review sessions to ensure compliance with expectations. At the end, we always engage with our clients to seek their feedback on each of the deliverables and we incorporate such feedback in both resolution and finalization of work products and in improving our practices through this process. Bowman PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING Environmental Review Bowman will oversee the environmental review to align with STP-L funding requirements, including the necessary technical documents for Environmental (E-76). Our team will follow environmental procedures per Chapter 6 of the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM). We will coordinate the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) filings throughout this project. Based on our assumptions, the project will qualify for a CEQA categorical exemption. It is also assumed that our team will prepare a Notice of Exemption (NOE) to be filed at the county clerk's office and uploaded to the State Clearinghouse (SCH), and we shall file and upload the NOE. It is also assumed that the project will qualify for a NEPA categorical exclusion (CE). Our staff will complete a Preliminary Environmental Study (PES) form along with proper Caltrans forms such as an Air Quality Conformity Findings Checklist, Air Quality Conformity Analysis, Air Quality Conformity Cover Letter, and the Federal Highway Administration Submittal Package, As Caltrans is the assigned NEPA lead agency for transportation projects in California that are funded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), our team will submit the CE to Caltrans. Bowman will prepare the necessary documentation to support CEQA Categorical Exemption/NEPA Categorical Exclusion findings before construction begins; however, if those findings are unable to be made, an amendment with additional funding will be required. Surveying Bowman is well -versed in the preparation of public land surveys, geodetic control surveys, and general surveying and mapping activities, such as acquisition boundary surveying, preparation of legal descriptions, topographic surveying, field location of areas defining categories of value or ownership / parcel mapping, mapping for appraisal purposes, court testimony, surveyor reports, and photogrammetric surveying. Bowman will initiate this task by conducting an existing record data search as it provides the needed survey and land ownership data which informs the field survey and field investigations. Our team will request access to City and County records, from utility companies, and other public / Bowman I City of Rosemead PS&E for Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing and Valley Blvd. I September4, 2025 private entities and agencies to establish any information on topography, right of way, property boundaries, easements, and other public agency's right of way. This will establish if any additional permits are necessary early on and which agencies must review the package for approval prior to construction. Our team, by use of our survey consultant, On Point Land Surveying, Inc. will perform a detailed topographic survey of the project limits including a detailed record of all existing surface features. The survey will determine elevations, drainage patterns, Right -of -Way (RW) lines, topographic data, utility identification, tree and planimetric features locations. Services will include right-of-way surveys, parcel boundaries or identification of easement, and topographic surveying services. We will utilize previous survey work and any recorded maps along the route that indicate additional RW dedication and / or easement. Survey control will be established and tied together in a project network. Our team will make field ties to a sufficient number of key existing survey monuments along the proposed project corridor to allow this record data to be accurately correlated to the aerial topographic survey. Land surveys will be tied to the City of Rosemead benchmark, based horizontally on the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83), and vertically on the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD29). Topographic mapping will follow a 40-scale with 1-ft contours. Our team will prepare a CAD digital base map compilation in accordance with the City's CAD Standards. Field visits of the project site will be conducted to document potential physical, environmental, traffic control, and rehabilitation constraints. Results of the document research and site visit will be incorporated in the base map. With the support of On Point, Bowman will develop all ROW information on the plans to identify any necessary agency coordination early on due to the project limit's proximity to Los Angeles County Flood Control District and Caltrans. Additionally, our growing resource of dedicated GIS specialists routinely supports mapping efforts in a wide array of municipal projects, helping the City manage coordination, predict maintenance costs, and track project progress in real-time. Any necessaryTCEs to perform construction work shall be illustrated with additional exhibits to assist the City in facilitating construction activities without delays. Bowman Bowman will also evaluate the existing background information provided by the City and County, including as- builts and development plans, sewer atlases, existing traffic and crash data, GIS data, and any other resources available. In addition, we will conduct a comprehensive conditions assessment of various street features, including pavement, curb and gutter, cross gutters, curb ramps, sidewalks, driveway approaches, catch basins, drainage inlets (including grates and brushes), traffic signals, pedestrian traffic signal systems, pedestrian -scale lighting, street lighting, bus stop pads, landscaping, and other street elements. During this investigation, we will inspect and confirm the locations of damaged or distressed street features, which will be summarized in a detailed report with photographs, GIS coordinates, and recommendations for possible repairs. To assist the City in evaluating the proposed improvements, we will also provide downloadable shapefiles (SHP files) of the locations of the proposed improvements based on GIS data. All pictures and videos taken during the site investigation will be made available to the City via a download link Bicycle Facilities According to the City of Rosemead Bicycle Transportation Plan, Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard are both proposed to have Class II Bicycle Lanes. Amir Farahani, PE, TE shall review the master plan along with conducting field investigation to help identify completed segments and remaining gaps, as well as any active transportation planning priorities that could affect this project's recommendations. Review of all related documents will be analyzed along with additional feedback received from surveying all stakeholders to identify and summarize projects that have not been implemented and their barriers to entry. It is important to understand not just where facilities exist, but the surrounding context, as even on roadways where pedestrian and bicycle accommodations are provided, the traffic environment may discourage walking and biking, effectively creating a gap in the multimodal network. We will examine the transportation network using a combination of available data, desktop review and field reconnaissance. We will compile the information gathered from this evaluation to generate a basemap of facilities and land uses, as well as user-friendly graphics that illustrate the key take-aways and what they mean for the City and community. Bowman I City of Rosemead PS&E for Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing and Valley Blvd. I September 4, 2025 These graphics will not only serve as a basis for our existing conditions summary, developed as the interim deliverable for this task, but can also be used in the public engagement process to provide an existing conditions summary for the final Plan. CITY OF ROSEMEAD BICYCLE IMPROVEMENT PLAN AM 5-1 T PROPOSED ROSEMEAD BIKEWAYS AND BICYCLE FACILITIES City Entry Monument Signs The City of Rosemead is seeking a design team to develop and install illuminated City entry monument signs that reflect the City's identity and create a welcoming presence. The design process will begin with the creation of three distinct design options, each accompanied by high -quality renderings showcasing various perspectives and details, These designs will be prepared in advance to ensure a diverse selection for review. The design team in coordination with City staff will then host three workshops with key City stakeholders to present the three design options and gather feedback. The purpose of these workshops is to ensure that the designs align with the City's vision and values, with stakeholders providing insights 1. Approach and Scope of Work • and suggestions for refinements. The design team will use this feedback to refine the concepts and ensure the final design meets both aesthetic and functional requirements. After incorporating feedback from the workshops, the final design will be presented at a City Council meeting for approval. Once the City Council selects a design, the team will move forward with creating detailed construction plans, including materials, dimensions, and an energy -efficient lighting solution to ensure visibility day and night. Finally, the design team will review shop drawings of the monument signs, ensuring the project is completed to the expectations of the community and to the satisfaction of the City Council. Throughout the entire process, the team will maintain clear communication with the City to create a lasting and visually striking landmark for the community. Raised Center Medians Our approach to designing runoff and stormwater capture improvements for the proposed raised center medians along Valley Boulevard, as well as the existing medians along Walnut Grove Avenue from Valley Boulevard to San Gabriel Boulevard, will focus on enhancing water quality and managing stormwater runoff effectively. The design will integrate natural, sustainable solutions that capture runoff, prevent erosion, biotreat stormwater, retain moisture in the soil, and support the City's goal of reducing water discharge into the storm drain system. This will be done in alignment with Resolution No. 2016-135 (Stormwater Management and Water Quality Control), which outlines the City's commitment to improving water quality and mitigating the impacts of urban runoff. The raised center medians will be specifically designed to capture and manage runoff through the installation of rain gardens, bioswales, and permeable landscaping features, in compliance with Ordinance No. 1534 (Water Conservation and Landscape Maintenance) and the California Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWFLO).These features will act as natural filters, allowing stormwater to infiltrate the soil and be naturally treated before entering the stormwater system. Rain gardens and planters will be strategically incorporated into the medians to capture and biotreat runoff, reducing pollutants such as sediment, oils, and debris. This process will help improve the quality Bowman I City of Rosemead PS&E for Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing and Valley Blvd. I September4, 2025 7 of stormwater runoff while contributing to groundwater recharge and reducing the strain on the local stormwater infrastructure. Additionally, the design will feature native, drought -tolerant, and climate -appropriate plant species, carefully selected to enhance the aesthetic appeal of the medians while providing natural water retention benefits. These plants will be resilient to local conditions and will require minimal irrigation, aligning with the City's water conservation efforts as outlined in Ordinance No.1534. By utilizing these plant species and integrating water -retention systems, the project will help retain moisture in the soil, prevent erosion, and reduce the need for additional water inputs. Incorporating these stormwater capture and water quality improvement measures will align with the City's broader sustainability goals and regulatory standards.The final design will ensure that the raised center medians contribute to reducing the amount of stormwater runoff entering the storm drain system and enhance water quality along Valley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue. This integrated design approach will ultimately provide long-term environmental benefits, supporting the City's commitment to sustainable urban development and water management as outlined in Resolution No. 2016-135 and Ordinance No. 1534. Geotechnical Engineering We, by use of our geotechnical subconsultant, P.A. & Associates, will perform a complete geotechnical investigation, pavement evaluations, and soils testing within the project area to evaluate existing conditions and will provide the necessary analyses and reports.

Approach, and Scope of Work OAPPROACH, AND SCOPE OF WORK Aerial photography of existing segment on Walnut Grove Ave A. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING The City of Rosemead's Walnut Grove Ave Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Blvd Resurfacing Project addresses critical roadway and pedestrian needs on two major roadways within the City. The City of Rosemead classifies Walnut Grove Ave as a minor arterial that runs north -south providing connection to Interstate 10. The project limits for Walnut Grove Ave lies south of Marshall St to San Gabriel Blvd adjacent to residential neighborhoods, commercial areas, and several schools and education centers. In addition, Valley Blvd is classified as a major arterial that runs east -west providing commuters with an alternative route to freeways during peak periods. Project limits for Valley Blvd lie between Charlotte Ave and Eaton Wash, also adjacent to many residential neighborhoods and commercial areas. The current Pavement Condition Index (PCI) for some areas of Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd were found to be as low as 57 and 64, respectively. Furthermore, Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd currently have no bike lanes. However, both segments are identified in the City of Rosemead's 2010 General Plan and 2010 Bicycle Transportation Plan as segments for potential future bicycle routes. For both segments, the project scope calls for pavement rehabilitation, pedestrian accessibility improvements including key design elements such as curb ramps, sidewalk, and crosswalk striping to meet current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards, an overhead flashing beacon, raised center medians with lighting and stonnwater capture improvements, bike lane feasibility, and the design of city monuments. AYCE Consulting Engineers, Inc. fully understands that this project requires professional engineering services for the preparation of Plans, Specifications, & Estimates (PS&E) that must strictly follow Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM) guidelines throughout the design phase. AYCE understands that this project is funded through local municipal funds and that STP -L funding will be used for the construction Page 1 phase of the project. Authorization Form E-76 will need to be submitted to the City to meet STP -L funding requirements. This includes compliance with all preliminary environmental and professional technical engineering documentation, utility and right-of-way coordination, PS&E submittals at 60%, 90%, and final design stages, and bidding and construction support services. Project Purpose and Need Purpose: The Walnut Grove Ave Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Blvd Resurfacing Project is intended to enhance corridor safety and city identity, pedestrian accessibility, and stormwater management by upgrading pavement and pedestrian infrastructure and integrating raised medians and city defining monuments. These upgrades will greatly benefit the residents of Rosemead, students, and the many visitors to commercial areas for both corridors. The project also aims to promote multimodal transportation by updating past bike feasibility study. If conclusions confirm feasibility, the project 411 design and implement bike facilities to support safer, more accessible multimodal travel. Need: Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd shows areas of pavement deterioration, outdated ADA infrastructure, insufficient stormwater treatment facilities, and lack of visual gateways into the City. Both corridors play key roles in local and regional circulation. Addressing these deficiencies is important for overall safety and accessibility for the community. Project Scope and Features 7. Roadway Rehabilitation and ADA upgrades The project will reconstruct or overlay deteriorated pavement, upgrade or repair damaged sidewalks, curb ramps, and curb & gutters to meet ADA requirements. Additionally, colored crosswalks at major signalized intersections will be installed and an overhead flashing beacon will be installed for LA County Fire Station 42 on Valley Blvd. 2. Raised Medians and Stormwater Capture Improvements The project will install new raised medians on Valley Blvd with landscaping and stormwater capture improvements to capture runoff and eliminate discharge into the storm drain. Landscape improvements and stormwater capture improvements will be designed and installed on existing raised medians on Walnut Grove Ave. 3. Bike Feasibility Study The project will conduct a bike lane study to determine if bicycle lanes can be safely and effectively implemented. If feasible, bike facilities will be designed and installed on one or both of Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd. 4. City Monuments New City Entry Monuments will be designed and installed on the proposed raised medians at the city limits of Valley Blvd and at the south end of Walnut Grove Ave to serve as visual gateways to the City and to enhance community identity and pride. 5. Right -of -Way Constraints and Utility Coordination Right-of-way maps, parcel maps, as-builts, utility information, and other available record data will be thoroughly assessed to ensure project ROW limits and to identify all underground and overhead utilities within project limits. When potential conflicts are identified, we recommend potholing early in the design process to verify utility depth and alignment. Coordination with city staff will take place for any potential encroachments or easement needs. All proposed improvements on Walnut Grove Ave and the intersection of Valley Blvd and Rosemead Blvd in Caltrans jurisdiction will be directly coordinated with Caltrans. Any third -party utility adjustments will need to be coordinated with utility companies accordingly. 6. Survey, Environmental, Geotechnical, and Hydraulic Investigation Accurate topographic and boundary surveys will be performed. All utilities, street features, and right-of-way limits will be mapped, and all pedestrian infrastructure will be assessed for ADA compliance. • Environmental documentation (CEOA, and NEPA) will be provided to align with STP -L funding requirements. • Core sampling and testing will determine pavement conditions and support recommendations. A geotechnical investigation report will be prepared to address testing results and calculations. The report will also include recommendations and different pavement rehabilitation methods. Page 2 • Analysis of 85�h percentile storm will be evaluated to provide recommendations for overall water quality and incorporating Best Management Practices (BMPs). Recommendations will quantify pollutant removal efficiencies and provide recommendations to address pollutants of concem. B. OVERALL GOAL Intersection of Valley Blvd and Walnut Grove Ave This Project's primary goal is to rehabilitate and modernize Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd to provide safer, more accessible, and resilient transportation corridors for residents, students, and visitors. By restoring the pavement, enhancing pedestrian facilities to meet ADA standards, and implementing traffic calming measures with stormwater improvements, the project will create safer and more efficient roadways for all. These improvements not only support active transportation and community mobility but also contribute to the City's commitment to infrastructure sustainability, safety, and long-term community growth.

CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES 1. Pavement Condition • Challenge: Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd have several areas where surface distress, cracking, and structural failures present safety and ride quality concerns • Opportunity: Full -depth reconstruction and/or asphalt overlay will restore structural integrity and improve pavement durability and user experience. Page 3 2. Pedestrian Infrastructure • Challenge: The existing pedestrian network is outdated, showing areas of non -ADA compliant sidewalk and curb ramps and curb and gutters. These conditions reduce walkability and are safety risks for people with disabilities. • Opportunity: Comprehensive ADA upgrades including new sidewalks, new driveways, and upgraded curb ramps. This will provide continuous, safe, and accessible pedestrian travel along the corridor. 3. Stormwater Capture Improvement Design • Challenge: Existing and proposed raised medians require landscape upgrades and improvements for capturing stormwater runoff that meet City Stormwater and water quality objectives and goals. • Opportunity: Implementing climate -appropriate and drought tolerant landscaping, bioretention, infiltration, and water quality treatment facilities to the existing raised medians on Walnut Grove Ave and to the proposed raised medians on Valley Blvd. 4. Bike Lane Feasibility • Challenge: Existing conditions on Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd do not support multimodal travel via bike lanes. • Opportunity: Improve mobility and multimodal travel by conducting a thorough bike feasibility study for the design and implementation of bike facilities along Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd. Demonstration of Innovation In addition to providing design and construction support services, AYCE's Interactive Digital Twinning studio transforms traditional engineering plans into 3D BIM models and Interactive Digital Twins. These are virtual models powered by the 3D modelling software that removes the technical barrier needed to understand engineering plans, which allows anyone to visualize, understand, and interact with the project design. This collaborative tool offers significant advantages to design and construction, such as: 1. Enhanced Constructability Reviews: Digital Twinning creates virtual walk-throughs and detects clashes, or physical constraints between design elements, which aids the identification of potential constructability issues early in the design phase. 2. Improved Engagement: Public officials, community leaders, the public, and stakeholders of all technical backgrounds can interact with the Digital Turin and visualize how the project will look with greater ease than traditional engineering plans. This accessibility fosters a deeper understanding of the project and enhances community outreach efforts, which increases buy -in and leads to a smoother approval process. 3. Cost Optimization: Since Digital Twinning visualizes potential issues early in development, mitigation strategies can be developed earlier as well, which facilitates cost estimation. 4. Enhanced Safety: Digital Twinning supports automated machine guidance and digital inspections during construction, which enhances safety and reduces rework. The two images on the right demonstrate how an Interactive Digital Twin interprets the intersection of Grand Avenue and 7th Street. The upper image displays the Digital Twin, and the lower image provides the final civil design plan that the Digital Twin references. Grand Ave and Th St Interactive Digital Twin Example Page r7� Community Benefit As part of our commitment to community benefit, AYCE will leverage its Interactive Digital Twinning Model studio to support public engagement, education, and outreach efforts approved by the City. Our Digital Twin model transforms traditional engineering plans into accessible, interactive 3D environments that allow residents of all ages and backgrounds to easily visualize and understand the proposed improvements. We plan to utilize this platform during school events, community open houses, and Earth Day activities to engage students and the public in the planning process of implementing sustainable transportation infrastructure. In addition, the platform can be shared with local organizations such as the Chamber of Commerce to illustrate the project's long term benefits and enhance citywide awareness. This approach aligns with the City's goals of meaningful public participation as well as its commitment to transparency and inclusivity. E. OVERVIEW OF APPROACH AYCE's approach will focus on corridor -specific infrastructure strategies based on existing site conditions. Immediately upon Notice to Proceed (NTP), our team will launch topographic surveying, geotechnical investigations and utility and right-of-way research tasks in parallel. These will provide the foundation for finalizing design limits, identifying ADA non-compliance locations, and coordinating utility and ROW conflicts across both corridors. After confirming the project scope with the City, AYCE will provide preliminary engineering tasks and a full PS&E package at 60%, 90%, and 100% stages. Additionally, we will work with the City to obtain any necessary Temporary Construction Easements, coordinate with Caltrans, utility providers for any Utility Notices, and provide bid assistance and construction support. To gain a better understanding of the current conditions of both corridors, our team conducted a field visit. During this field visit, we evaluated pavement conditions, and potential conflicts along the corridor. 1. Pavement Rehabilitation Strategy After receiving NTP, our team will conduct a geotechnical study to recommend the best pavement rehabilitation strategy for Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd. We will define limits of full -depth concrete reconstruction (8" section with 2" asphalt base and 6" asphalt pavement) versus grind and overlay (2" rubberized asphalt hot mix) and identify asphalt type based on geotechnical recommendations and field conditions. Testing methods include visual pavement condition surveys, infiltration testing, deflection testing (such as Falling Weight Deflectometer), and coring to verify pavement thickness and subgrade conditions. The project limits of Walnut Grove Ave will have a total of 38 cores and the project limits of Valley Blvd will have a total of 30 cores per City requirements. Existing concrete sections of both corridors will be checked for slab integrity, and any faulting ensuring flush transitions when resurfacing. Subsurface sampling and laboratory testing will verify in-situ moisture and density, sieve analysis, shear strength, R -value, and soil corrosivity, as appropriate. Traffic loading, drainage pattems, and maintenance Longitudinal and transverse cracking on Valley Blvd history are also reviewed to assess structural capacity and deterioration causes. Based on this data, rehabilitation strategies are evaluated for cost effectiveness, performance life, and constructability. These strategies will be coordinated with the City for phasing and traffic management and the final selected strategy will be consulted with the City based on the City's goal, budget, and community impacts. Page 5 2. Sidewalk, Curb Ramps, & Crosswalks After walking parts of both corridors, the team identified various locations on Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd that have non-compliant sidewalkicurbs around existing tree wells. Tree wells will have to be removed and replaced to regrade the adjacent sidewalk. After reviewing the survey data, AYCE will determine all and exact locations of non-compliant sidewalk and discontinuities and work with the City to determine which areas to prioritize. This will give the City flexibility in scope setting and maintain ADA compliance. Any deferred locations will be documented in the Transition Plan. In accordance with Caltrans ADA Compliance Handbook and DIB 82-06, proposed sidewalk will be constructed to a minimum dear width of 48 inches with an exception of 32 inches minimum for a length of 24 inches. The running slope will be designed to be 5% maximum at areas nonadjacent to roadways and will be constrained to the roadway grade where the sidewalk is adjacent to a roadway. The maximum cross slope will be designed at a maximum of 2%. Non-compliant sidewalk adjacent to existing tree wells on North side of Valley Blvd There is a total of 84 curb ramps combined inside the project limits for the Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd Resurfacing Project. During our field visit, the team measured a handful of curb ramps on both corridors that contained modem yellow Detectable Warning Surfaces (DWS). The team labeled these curb ramps as compliant and made the engineering assumption that all curb ramps with modem yellow DWS on both the corridors were compliant and will not need to be upgraded. A handful of ramps with no DWS were also measured and were found to be non-compliant to the latest ADA standards. The team assumed that each curb ramp with no DWS will have to be upgraded to meet ADA requirements. In addition, some ramps along both corridors that were assumed to be non- compliant also have limited right-of-way for a new compliant ADA curb ramp to be installed. For these locations, our surveyor will confirm the exact location of ROW before design alternatives are proposed. Proposed alternatives include adjusting the curb radii or constructing a curb extension to provide the necessary space to install a fully compliant curb ramp without encroaching onto adjacent property. Compliant curb ramps and crosswalk at SE corner on Valley Blvd & Rosemead Blvd Based on our assumptions described above, we expect there to be a total of 23 curb ramps inside the project limits that will need to be upgraded. The AYCE team has successfully delivered ADA -compliant design for over 500 curb ramps and hundreds of miles of sidewalk improvements ensuring the City of Rosemead the most efficient and cost -friendly design that fits the objective and vision for the scope of this project. At AYCE, we employ the latest technology and methodologies for creating optimal curb ramp designs. Using cutting-edge handheld Udar and GIS technology, 3D CADD models are created resulting in decreased project duration and increased quality. We will use Caltrans Compliance Inspection Report (CEM series) along with the Permanent Pedestrian Facilities ADA Compliance Handbook to confirm compliance with state and federal standards. Page 6 Furthermore, curb ramp upgrades at stopcontrolled intersections will be designed to direct pedestrian traffic away from existing stop bars. At signalized intersections, curb ramps will be designed to minimize impacts to existing facilities and to ensure pedestrian push buttons are ADA compliant. The team also identified several crosswalks on intersections along Valley Blvd that will have to be restr ped to provide the minimum 4' ADAcompliant turning space. The AYCE team will develop new design concepts for these crosswalks ensuring ADA compliance while also meeting the objectives and vision of the City. After receiving NTP, AYCE will conduct a more thorough field assessment where we will accurately identify which specific ramps for each corridor are able to leave as -is, which require minor re -grading, and which will need full reconstruction. AYCE will also identify areas of non-compliant, damaged, or inadequate sidewalk, curb, and curb and gutter. From our experience on the recently completed Caltrans District 7, SR -210 ADA Curb Ramps Design Build Project, AYCE came up with a RULES framework that demonstrated a deep understanding of the ADA — its core principles, its requirements, and Non-compliant curb ramp and its implications across various design elements. Using Design Caltrans crosswalk at NE ramp on Design Bulletin Information (DIB) 82-06 as the foundation, our framework Valley Blvd &Easy St ensures thorough compliance with all requirements. Slope values are from Caltrans Standard Plan A88A so that facilities meet requirements from DIB 82-06 after construction tolerance. The figure below outlines AYCE's RULES framework. The RULES framework serves as a design checklist and overall guideline for our designs, ensuring compliance. is RanI, cross alop05 L5% X ram's'. s1oPo I > t 3%. slow mutt. a adl...t.o .r Inane Cr, romp..a, mune. uKanl,allod or Ir"Wed. d am p. moat 00. 5.

Raised Center Medians & Stormwater Capture Improvements The construction of approximately 12 -foot -wide raised center medians along Valley Boulevard will enhance roadway safety and provide water quality benefits through the integration of landscaped planters. The raised medians will serve as a Page 7 /1`tCE physical barrier to reduce vehicle conflicts and improve traffic flow, while the landscaped planters will be designed as bioretention facilities to capture and treat stormwater runoff generated from the roadway surface. These planters will incorporate engineered soil media and drought -tolerant vegetation to promote infiltration, pollutant removal, and evapotranspiration, thereby reducing the volume of untreated runoff entering the storm drain system. By eliminating direct discharge to the storm drain network, the proposed median design not only improves water quality but also supports compliance with stormwater management requirements, contributing to sustainable and resilient roadway infrastructure. 4. City Monuments and Overhead Flashing Beacon Three city entry illuminated monuments will be installed on proposed raised medians on Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd. One will be installed on the south end of Walnut Grove Ave and the other two will be installed at the west and east ends of Valley Blvd. Our design approach for the City monuments is centered on visibility, structural design, electrical requirements, and integration with the corridor. r' Our goal is to reflect the City's identity and character and to make it compatible with the surrounding landscaping and Existing City of Rosemead City Monument roadway. Following CAMUTCD and AASHTO standards, we will ensure that clear zone standards are met and that the monuments will be appropriately scaled, making it easy for motorists to see without creating any visual obstructing sight lines. Structural foundations of the monuments will be based on geotechnical recommendations and monument load requirements. The monument design will also include breakaway or shielded components to meet roadway safety guidelines and be coordinated with proposed median work. To meet the city's requirement for illumination, the monuments will include low -voltage, energy-efficient LED lighting to enhance visibility. Electrical services will need to be coordinated with Southern California Edison (SCE) to ensure if there will need to be any new service drops or meter installations. In locations where grid power access is limited, we will evaluate the option of implementing solar -powered lighting options to meet sustainability goals. The intent of installing an Overhead Flashing Beacon is to enhance safety and operational efficiency at LA County Fire Station 42 on Valley Blvd. The flashing beacon system will serve as an Emergency Vehicle Signal System (EVSS), with an overhead flashing beacon installed on standard traffic signal poles with mast arms and equipped with hybrid beacon heads to provide clear and high -visibility warning to approaching motorists. This proposed overhead beacon system will incorporate Emergency Vehicle Preemption Equipment (EVPE) to detect the presence of emergency vehicles exiting the station. Push buttons will also be installed inside the fire station that will be hardwired to the traffic signal controller cabinet and serve as a preemptive signal activation. Once triggered, the system will initiate the hybrid beacon flash sequence. Location of poles will be coordinated with the City and SoCal Edison to ensure clearance iL requirements are met. If a new electrical service drop is required, Sample Existing Fire Station successful implementation will require early and continuous coordination Overhead Flashing Beacon with SCE to determine the optimal service point location. We will coordinate with SCE and LA County to determine whether a shared service configuration is feasible or if a dedicated service point is needed, which will include a new service cabinet for the system. Design and pole placement will follow Caltrans Standard Plans, Caltrans Electrical Design Guidelines, CAMUTCD, LA County signal standards, abiding to all relevant federal and state codes. Page 8 5. Bike Lanes Feasibility Evaluating the feasibility of implementing bike facilities along Walnut Grove Ave and Valley Blvd requires a comprehensive approach adhering to state and national design standards, combining technical analysis and community input. The feasibility study will begin with defining specific project objectives, such as improving safety for all users, enhancing bicycle connectivity to key destinations, promoting equitable access to transportation, and reducing congestion. The AYCE team will also conduct a comprehensive existing conditions assessment looking at components such as roadway geometry, traffic volumes and speed data, crash history, and current bicycle demand. Interactive Digital Twin Model: Class IV Bike Lanes Sample: AYCE 7v' St Project AYCE will then develop different aftematives for bicycle facilities (Class I, 11, 111, or IV) following the applicable guidelines to ensure compliance with state and national best practices such as Caltrans Highway Design Manual (Chapter 100), the Protected Bikeways Act, and NACTO design guides. Each alternative will be evaluated and compared based on the impacts they have on vehicular flow, effects on parking and curbside access, safety, overall connectivity, costs, and any right-of-way constraints. Robust stakeholder engagement including surveys, pop-up events, and workshops ensures local input and builds community support. Finally, the alternatives are evaluated using multi -criteria decision methods, balancing technical feasibility, cost-effectiveness, and equity considerations. The study concludes with a recommendation and a presentation at a City Council Meeting to present conclusions. F. OTHER SCOPE OF WORK Topographic Survey Topographic survey of both corridors will be conducted by CL Surveying & Mapping (CL Survey). CL Survey's Project Manager, Lam Le, PLS, and a team of professional land surveyors will manage and execute a detailed design -level topographic survey of the project limits, capturing features such as geometry, centerlines, right-of-way, spot elevations, flow line, top of curbs, gutters, pavement cross slopes, traffic control devices, and other sidewalk and above ground features. Survey will be taken from lip to lip for both corridors and at intersections, the curb ramps and sidewalks including above ground features within 20' from the BCR and ECR will be surveyed. Horizontal and vertical control will be established to serve as the basis for any subsequent boundary, topographic, or construction staking surveys that may be required throughout the course of the project. Utilizing GPS and 31) laser scanning where appropriate, CL Survey will reference the California Coordinate System of 1983 (CCS83) horizontally and the North America Vertical Datum 1988, vertically to produce a high -accuracy base map in CAD format. Cross sections will be taken at regular intervals and at locations of notable terrain transitions. In areas with potential utility conflict, CL Survey will provide survey data to confirm the vertical and horizontal location of underground infrastructure. Environmental Compliance For roadway or bike lane projects in California, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is often the lead agency. However, Caltrans acts as the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) lead under assignment from FHWA for most local assistance projects. Regarding NEPA documentation, the majority of roadway resurfacing and bike lane improvement projects are eligible for a Categorial Exclusion (CE) under 23 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 777.117, which streamlines environmental review by exempting projects with minimal environmental impact. For compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), we will coordinate with Caltrans Local Assistance Department to submit a Preliminary Environmental Study From. This process includes obtaining formal concurrence from Page 9 /�tCE Caltrans District 7 Environmental Staff, who will review the project's potential environmental impacts and confirm the appropriate level of CEOA documentation. Depending on project specifics, technical studies such as biological assessments, cultural resources evaluations, or traffic noise analysis may need to be required to support environmental clearance. However, based on the scope and typical impacts associated with similar resurfacing and bike lane projects, it is expected that this project does not trigger any additional environmental studies. Geotechnical Investigation and Pavement Evaluation Geotechnical investigation Will be performed by Ninyo & Moore. Their scope of work includes project planning and coordination With the design team, coordination with Underground Services Alert to identity existing subsurface utilities, and a comprehensive geotechnical investigation to assess existing pavement sections and subgrade conditions. Ninyo & Moore will perform a total of 30 asphalt cores along Valley Blvd and 38 asphalt cores along Walnut Grove Avenue, as specified in the RFP. The cores will be used to determine the existing pavement structural section. Pavement thickness will be measured and documented. Ninyo & Moore will also conduct infiltration testing for the proposed medians on both corridors to evaluate the feasibility of stormwater infiltration best management practices (BMPs). The specific locations of proposed percolation tests will be taken every 50 to 100ft for each corridor and be coordinated directly with City staff. Soil sampling Will be taken at about 15% of the 68 coring locations and used for laboratory testing. Laboratory testing will be performed on representative samples and may include in-situ moisture and density measurements, sieve analyses, Atterberg limits, direct shear strength testing, R -value determination, and soil oorrosivity testing, depending on site-specific needs. Based on the data, Ninyo & Moore will provide insight for pavement section design and appropriate pavement rehabilitation strategies. They will prepare a detail -oriented geotechnical report presenting field findings, conclusions, and recommendations. The report will include a site plan, coring location map, pertinent geologic and seismic hazard maps, coring logs, and laboratory test results. The report will be signed and stamped by a California -registered Geotechnical Engineer and Engineering Geologist. Landscaping AYCE will provide comprehensive landscape architectural services to support the design of the proposed raised medians along Valley Blvd and evaluate enhancement opportunities for new and existing medians along Walnut Grove Ave. The goal is to create multi -functional green infrastructure that not only enhances corridor aesthetics but also contributes to stormwater capture, water quality improvement, and erosion control. We will emphasize drought -tolerant, native, and climate -appropriate plant materials to ensure sustainability and to capture stormwater runoff. All plantings will be supported by efficient, low -flow irrigation systems to reduce water waste in compliance with City Stormwater Management goals. The low -flow irrigation systems in the raised medians Will utilize drip irrigation, delivering water directly to the plants roots. These will be designed for durability and low maintenance, adhering to latest state codes and standards. Our process begins by evaluating existing conditions for the existing raised medians and assessing infiltration tests performed on proposed raised median locations. Existing drainage patterns and any potential conflict with existing utilities will also be closely evaluated. From here we Will integrate green infrastructure strategies into the raised medians that meet or exceed stormwater quality volume. Green infrastructure features include: • Rain gardens • Bioswales • Bioretention planters • Flow-through planters • Amended soils • Naturalized grading These elements will promote infiltration, capture storm water, contribute to the environmental health of the community, support biodiversity, and enhance the areas' visual appeal. AYCE will provide detailed maintenance recommendations to ensure quality system performance and meet the City's water quality and sustainability objectives. Page 10 Permitting/Utility Coordination Our scope of work for permitting coordination includes the following: • Engage with LA County Flood Control District (tACFCD) to confirm no regional drainage facilities • Coordinate with SCE • Consult with Caltrans for work on Walnut Grove Ave between Marshall St and Hellman Ave and on the intersection of Valley Blvd & Rosemead Blvd • Ensure compliance with ADA standards for all curb ramps and sidewalks AYCE will manage all utility coordinafion to identify conflicts. AYCE will identify all utilities and confirm their elevations and alignment. All manholes and handholes affected by resurfacing will need to be adjusted. Our scope includes: • Verifying location and depth of utilities • Research and documentation of existing utility records • Coordination with utility agencies – San Gabriel County Water District (SGCWD), SoCal Gas, and SCE, among others. • Utility clearance documentation for PS&E approval • Utility relocation plan sets if necessary Bidding, Construction Support, and As-builts AYCE will support the City of Rosemead throughout the bidding phase to ensure a smooth and responsive procurement process for this project. Our team will participate in the pre-bid meeting to assist in clarifying project requirements and responding to contractor questions.

We offer a structured project management approach that aligns with our commitment to responsive client service and efficient project delivery. Our process covers the full scope of services—from initial scope development and scheduling to budget tracking, coordination with stakeholders, and quality control. This ensures that from concept to final PS&E, each phase of work stays on track and delivers complete packages. Project Leadership and Communication David Woo, PE, ENV SP will serve as the Project Manager and primary point of contact with the City of Rosemead. He will oversee all deliverables, direct coordination with subconsultants, and manage external reviews and approvals. David will lead and be responsible for the following: • Biweekly check -ins with the City to review progress, design issues, and decisions • Internal task leads: design, survey, environmental, geotechnical, and landscaping. • Meeting summaries with decisions tracked through completion • Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) At the start of the project, AYCE will hold a kickoff meeting with City staff to confirm schedule, standards, and communication protocols. Upon 7 days of NTP, a Project Management Plan (PMP) will be developed to define the scope of work, constraints, and technical requirements. Once granted the contract, we will provide the City of Rosemead with a milestone completion schedule and an hourly breakdown for each task Page 11 and cost for each. We work closely with our clients to ensure transparency and agreement on all key project aspects through regular status updates and review meetings. We plan to utilize our Interactive Digital Twinning Model at City hosted workshops and City Council Meetings to present Quality Management Plan AYCE consistently delivers quality projects for clients through our proven Quality Management System (OMS). David Woo, PE, ENV SP will also serve as our Quality Manager, implementing a quality plan consistent with Caltrans requirements. Our QMS focuses on policies and procedures that ensure project deliverables are checked, complete, accurate, error -free, and in conformance with the defined standards and criteria. Key elements of our quality plan include: ✓ Production quality control reviews ✓ Over -the -shoulder reviews ✓ Periodic and milestone reviews ✓ Interdisciplinary reviews ✓ Constructability reviews Our philosophy engages each member of the team to ensure the structured processes produce the desired outcome. David will initiate a program of surveillance and audits prior to each deliverable to verity that the team has effectively developed, documented and implemented all applicable elements of the OMS in accordance with the specified requirements. This audit information will be provided to the City as verification of our QMS. All deliverables undergo internal peer reviews by experienced senior staff to ensure accuracy, compliance with applicable codes, and adherence to City standards. Our QMS places the final responsibility for implementation on the OC Manager for final review, reducing rework, improving clarity, and streamlining review cycles. Schedule and Cost Control AYCE will manage the project schedule using a task -based schedule aligned with the City's 4 -month design window. A CPM schedule will be developed at project initiation with clearly defined milestones, roles, and deliverables and will be updated regularly. Our key personnel will identify areas of potential conflict and develop consensus on prioritization and sequencing of all project elements. As part of our Project Execution Plan, we will focus on developing an approach that balances schedule goals with any change that may occur during the project delivery, through real-time budget tracking, change management documentation, and variance analysis, allowing for timely adjustments and fiscal responsibility throughout project execution. AYCE employs different project control tools based on the size and complexity of each task. Project control tools provide David with real time information to efficiently track project costs and schedules. He will utilize Primavera suite software tools and will work with the City of Rosemead to determine each software's needs. David will track, control, and adjust resources as necessary through weekly updates and meetings with key personnel, technical experts, and the City of Rosemead. Please see tentative design schedule attached to the end of this section. Risk Management Our risk management process begins with identifying and evaluating potential risks that may affect the project's progress. By identifying and evaluating these risks, we can create mitigation plans to keep the project on track. At the start of the project, we will develop a risk register that identifies and categorizes these potential risks depending on their chances of occurring, severity, and impact. These risks will be split into the following three categories: low, medium, or high. By categorizing the risks, we can identify vulnerabilities that we can prioritize to address. After identifying and categorizing the potential risks, we will create mitigation measures that will be used to reduce the risks' chance of occurring and/or lessen their impact on the project. For example, if there were delays in obtaining permits or approvals during PS&E, we would categorize this risk as high. In this case, we would work closely with the agencies to expedite reviews or address potential concerns in the design by scheduling regular check -ins with the agencies or adjusting the project timeline to allow more time for the approval processes. Additionally, we will maintain a risk management log to keep track of any new risks or to update the existing risks' progression. This log will also serve to document the effectiveness of the mitigation measures. This way, we can see if there are any new updates or improvements that can be made. This log will be shared with staff regularly so that all stakeholders are aware of the potential risks and their progress, keeping the risk management process a dynamic and ongoing process.

RFP, for the City of Rosemead, Walnut Grove Avenue I A Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project SECTION 1: Approach, and Scope of Work Upon commencement of the design phase of the project, a review of available documentation and a detailed visual inspection of the site will be undertaken. The inspection will include visual observations, photographs, and field measurements (i.e. concrete repair limits, sidewalk dimensions, etc.). All findings of the site evaluation will be geo- referenced on aerial photographs in a GIS map. Each repair location will denote the exact length or dimension of the repair and will have street level photographs linked. If requested, OE will provide the City with a link to the site evaluation data, which will also be transferred to the construction plan sheets. THIRD PARTY RIGHT-OF-WAY ENCROACHMENT It is anticipated that the proposed construction activities and/or traffic control setups will encroach into the following right-of-ways: Valley Boulevard/Alhambra Wash Flood Channel X Valley Boulevard/Eaton Wash Flood Channel X Valley Boulevard/Rubio Wash Flood Channel X Walnut Grove Avenue/Pomona Freeway (SR 60) X Walnut Grove Avenue/San Bernardino Freeway (SR 10) X OE will review all available right-of-way maps for Caltrans and LACFCD to determine the exact areas of encroachment. Based on the available information it is predicted that encroachment permits will be required for traffic control setups within Caltrans rights -of -way. Encroachment permits for rehabilitating the pavement crossing the LACFCD rights - of -way is not expected as long as the bridge decks are not modified. PAVEMENT REHABILITATION The determination of the rehabilitation methods used for each street segment will be based on the following data sources: • Site evaluation findings. • Geotechnical investigation results and subsequent rehabilitation recommendations. • Pavement Management Plan results and recommendations. • Cost -Benefit Analysis. • Discussions with the City. RFP, for the City of Rosemead, Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project 13 cl:_P SECTION 1: Approach, and Scope of Work In addition to traditional rehabilitation methods such as pavement milling and overlays or full depth reconstruction, OE can assess the potential benefits of incorporating alternative treatment methods into the design at the City's request. The cost of incorporating these treatments varies; however, they typically result in upfront cost savings in labor and material costs or long-term savings by providing a street with service life comparable to one that has been reconstructed at a reduced price. The following is a brief description of a few methods that could be considered. ASPHALT RUBBER HOT MIX (ARHM) The existing conditions along these street segments are in various stages of fatigue and cracking including, but not limited to, block cracking, alligator cracking, rutting, and reflective cracking. Based upon the current types, age, extent of pavement distress, and the observed conditions the development of Comprehensive rehabilitation or resurfacing recommendations could vary. The application of surface rehabilitation measures will be emphasized to provide the most cost-effective street improvement strategy. Based on our initial review and analysis, the likely rehabilitation strategy will consist of localized reconstruction for severely distressed areas with a variable depth edge grind to match the existing lip of gutter and a 2-inch AC or ARHM overlay. This strategy will be confirmed with pavement comings and remediation recommendations to be provided by Converse Consultants, geotechnical engineering. RECLAIMED ASPHALT PAVEMENT (RAP) Options for recycling the material milled from the streets can be evaluated if there is sufficient surface area to be rehabilitated for it to be economically viable. There are several methods that utilize RAP including hot recycling, hot in -place recycling, cold in -place recycling, cold central plant recycling, and full depth reclamation. The determination of which methods may be feasible for the project will depend on street geometry and structural section, project logistics, and available construction budgets. Studies have historically demonstrated that the inclusion of RAP in the pavement design results in a pavement of similar or better quality than pavement constructed using conventional methods. Depending on the RAP method utilized, cost savings can be realized by reducing the amount of new asphalt cement or binder used, transportation costs, and disposal costs. Cold -mix methods can also result in reduced disruptions to traffic flow due to reduced curing times. Utilizing RAP methods also demonstrates Environmental Stewardship by recycling non-renewable resources, reducing waste to landfills, minimizing air emissions, and conserving energy. FIBER REINFORCED ASPHALT Fiber additives can be incorporated into full depth pavement layers, overlays, and slurry seals to improve the tensile strength, crack resistance, and service life of the pavement. Fiber reinforced asphalt has been utilized on projects by a growing number of Cities throughout Southern California. Cost savings can be realized by extending the pavement life and by reducing the required pavement thicknesses, as compared to conventional asphalt mixes. ASPHALT RUBBER CAPE SEAL (ARCS) Asphalt rubber cape seal can be utilized in lieu of conventional cape seal or grind and overlay in some cases. While conventional cape seals can last 6 to 8 years on streets with 1 /8" to 1/4 alligator cracks, ARCS can increase the pavement service life up to 15 years on roads with 3/8" to 1 /2" alligator cracks. Additionally, ARCS are approximately 3-4 times less expensive than a 2" overlay. CURB, GUTTER, AND SIDEWALK REPAIRS Based on the site evaluation, the existing curb, gutter, and sidewalk were generally in good condition with isolated areas of breakage or heaving. At a minimum, curb and gutter should be reconstructed where drainage is affected, and sidewalk should be replaced where not in compliance with ADA requirements (i.e. heaved sidewalk panels, minimum path widths). Additional reconstruction to replace sections where minor cracking or breakage has occurred could also be undertaken to improve aesthetics and prevent further degradation that could affect ADA compliance, drainage, or public safety in the future. RFP, for the City of Rosemead, Walnut Grove Avenue C�_133 Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project 14 SECTION 1: Approach, and Scope of Work Damage to pavement, curb, gutter, and sidewalks due to the infiltration of tree roots should also be addressed. Tree roots under affected infrastructure to be reconstructed should be exposed and assessed by a licensed arboristto determine if the roots can be removed without affecting the health of the tree. If safe to do so, the roots can be trimmed, and a barrier can be installed to prevent the roots from re -infiltrating areas of concern. ADA CURB RAMPS Valley Boulevard 14 Walnut Grove Avenue 20 The attached table summarizes the quantity of curb ramps that do not appear to satisfy ADA requirements based on the site evaluation. Curb ramps not in compliance with ADA requirements or in disrepair will be redesigned as 3-dimensional surfaces in Civil 31D to ensure that the ADA slope and dimension requirements are adhered to. Custom curb ramp details prepared for the construction plans would include horizontal geometrics and design elevations. If a ramp can not be designed to achieve complete ADA compliance due limiting site factors such as intersecting street and sidewalk grades, the ramp will be designed to be as compliant as possible, and a Curb Ramp Memo signed by a Professional Engineer will be prepared. ADA DRIVEWAYS Driveways in disrepair will be denoted on the plans with reference to an SPPWC standard detail. If requested bythe City custom design details can be prepared if deemed necessary due to the complexity of the driveways. The driveways would be redesigned as 3-dimensional surfaces in Civil 3D to ensure that the ADA slope and dimension requirements are adhered to. Custom driveway details prepared for the construction plans would include horizontal geometrics and design elevations. RFP, for the City of Rosemead, Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project Is SECTION 1: Approach, and Scope of Work CITY ENTRY MONUMENT V elcome t o ri) Ora,SE I City Entry monuments will be designed for installation within medians at 3 locations along Valley Boulevard from the west to east city limits. The monuments will generally be designed to include the following elements: • The monuments' structure will consist of concrete or a concrete block wall. • Approximate dimensions of the signage will be 5 to 6 feet high and approximately 8 feet wide. • The structural wall will be minimum 12 inches thick. • Wall elevations will be shaped as required by the approved architectural plans. • Wall surfaces will be cladded with stone or other finish material per the approved architectural plans. • Walls will be supported on concrete foundation to resist design loads including dead loads, wind, seismic and other loads as appropriate. • Lighting will installed around the bases of the monuments.

The proposed median enhancements are not only an opportunity to beautify these major corridors but also to integrate resilient, climate -appropriate landscape systems that will thrive under current and future water availability constraints. Our approach begins with the selection of native and climate -adapted plant species that offer seasonal interest, habitat value, and durability in a highly urban setting. We will prioritize species with proven performance in median conditions, high heat, reflected light, and limited rooting zones, while supporting the City's stormwater quality objectives through plant choices that can tolerate periodic inundation in rain gardens and bioretention areas. RFP, for the City of Rosemead, Walnut Grove AvenueC(5_33 I L Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project V SECTION 1: Approach, and Scope of Work Irrigation systems will be designed for maximum efficiency and longevity, incorporating subsurface drip systems, weather -based irrigation controllers, and zoning strategies that group plants by hydrozone to reduce water use and simplify maintenance. All irrigation design will be fully compliant with the Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO), and wherever possible, we will explore integration with existing City irrigation infrastructure to reduce installation and operational costs. We will work closely with the City's engineering team to ensure seamless coordination between planting, irrigation, grading, and stormwater capture features so that each median performs as a functional green infrastructure element while presenting a cohesive visual identity for Rosemead. Our design documentation will provide clear, constructible plans and specifications that anticipate long-term maintenance needs, ensuring these medians remain an asset to the community for decades to come. TRAFFIC CONTROL ENHANCEMENTS The following traffic control enhancements will be incorporated into the design based on the City's direction. 1 • Conceptual Designs • Develop conceptual roadway cross -sections for Valley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue that incorporate vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian elements. 2 • Bicycle Facility Design • Evaluate feasibility of bicycle lanes within both corridors. • Provide conceptual layout and f inal design for bicycle facilities consistent with the General Plan and current best practices. 3 • Signing and Striping Plans • Prepare full signing and striping plans for Valley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue. • Include bike lane markings, legends, crosswalks (including colored concrete crosswalks), and lane configurations. 4. Overhead Flashing Beacon Design • Design an overhead flashing beacon system for LA County Fire Station 42 at 9319 Valley Boulevard. • Coordinate with the LA County Fire Department for preemption activation from inside the station. • Coordinate with the design team to identify and secure a service point for the beacon system. • Prepare plans and specifications for the system consistent with City and CA MUTCD standards. 5 • Traffic Signal Detector Replacement Plans • Prepare necessary traffic signal details and plans for replacing in -pavement loop detectors affected by pavement work at the following intersections along Valley Boulevard: - Delta Avenue - Walnut Grove Avenue - Muscatel Avenue - Ivar Avenue - Rosemead Boulevard (SR-19) - Hart Avenue - Mission Drive - Rio Hondo Avenue - Merwin C Gill Way - Temple City Boulevard • It is anticipated that no other traffic signal equipment would be affected. The following cross sections detail the existing street layouts as well as potential conceptual designs that incorporate bike lanes into the streets. The cross sections are shown at the narrowest sections of each street as it is assumed that whatever features can be accommodated at the narrowest section of the street can be included in the wider sections as well. As can be seen in the cross sections provided, it is unlikely that Class II bike lanes can be added without widening the streets or eliminating parking on one or both sides of the streets; however, OE will further explore options upon commencement of the conceptual design phase of the project.

C11733 RFP, for the City of Rosemead, Walnut Grove AvenueIQ Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project V SECTION 1: Approach, and Scope of Work LESSONS LEARNED The following is a description of some lessons learned on other projects of similar scope that can be applied to this project to improve efficiency: RECURRENT PROJECT MEETINGS It is recommended that progress meetings be conducted every two weeks or twice monthly between the City PM, Consultant PM, and Consultant Design Engineer. These approximately 30-minute meetings conducted via video conference or telephone allow the Consultant to give the City a brief update on the progress of the project and to discuss new design approaches and challenges. This continuous engagement assists in keeping the project on track to meet milestones and reduces the amount of time the City needs to spend reviewing the PS&E as many of their comments and concerns will have already been addressed. BASE MAP ACCURACY To ensure that the base maps are accurate and complete, the site evaluation will be conducted once the drone mapping, topographic survey data, and utility as -built information has been incorporated into the base maps to verify that utility appurtenance locations and ownership are portrayed correctly. ESTABLISHING REPAIR METRICS Prior to the site evaluation, measurable repair values (i.e. minimum crack widths, minimum sidewalk panel fault heights, etc.) should be established with input from the City to ensure that the recommendations for repairs meet the City's requirements. ADHERENCE TO BUDGET Significant changes to the design can be costly and delay milestones, particularly on larger scale projects. Therefore, the budget will be strictly adhered to throughout the design phase and all construction items will be quantified as accurately as possible early in the design process to prevent scope creep. THIRD PARTY COMMUNICATION Early and continuous communication with third parties will be critical to minimize delays to the project schedule. OE will identify key personnel within organizations and provide complete design plans as early as feasible to minimize review cycles.

RFP, for the City of Rosemead, Walnut Grove Avenue I L �' Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project V SECTION 1: Approach, and Scope of Work Quality Assurance is a proactive measure taken to verify that the systems and procedures OE has • put in place are in conformance with the City's requirements and expectations. Achieving design quality is the foundation for keeping costs under control during construction. By focusing resources on producing quality design, QA provides a better return on investment. It must be followed during all phases of project design. The most effective Construction Management (CM) approach should begin during design because emphasizing design quality and design clarity is the surest way to minimize the amount of change orders, claims and construction costs. The most effective and productive QA approach is focusing on producing well -documented, well designed plans and specifications at a standard of high quality. This would mean it must be Clear and understandable, Complete, Correct, Consistent, and Constructible (the "5 C's"). The Contractor receiving high quality plans would know exactly what to bid, keeping areas of interpretation to a minimum. The requirement for public bidding provides additional incentive for the design engineering team to achieve both quality and clarity in project plans and specifications. The primary goal in achieving the highest project quality is obtained by implementing and maintaining both accuracy and consistency among the calculations, drawings, specifications on all project documents. PLAN REVIEW ERROR MITIGATION Our documents will go through 3 levels This three tiered review allows for error mitigation of review prior to each submittal: on 3 separate levels of detail: Plan checks will check that the plans meet the 5 C's: Consistent, Clear, Correct, Constructible, and Complete. GaQuality Control means performing all activities in conformance with valid requirements, no matter how large or small their overall contribution would be to the design process. Good CAD techniques, attention to detail, and checking that plans are correct and useful to the contractor are also essential to quality. Our project engineers and project managers recognize that quality is the result of several processes. It requires a team to perform many appropriate activities at the right time during the plans development process. Quality Control does not solely consist of a review after a product is completed. It is an approach alongside an understanding that quality is a critical point of focus throughout every moment of the design process. The design team follows OE's established design policies, procedures, standards and guidelines in the preparation and review of all design products for compliance and good engineering practice as directed by the Project QC Plan. The elements of the QC Plan are as follows: • PROJECT INFORMATION: Title I Number I Location I Description I Plan Scope I Plan Overview • PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS: PS&E I Industry Quality Standards I OE Quality Standards I Other Specifications • PROCESS CONTROL: Quality Control Tasks Listing I Process Coordination I Process Communication • ADDITIONAL QC REQUIREMENT: Client Specifications • PROJECT ORGANIZATION: Key Personnel I Responsibilities I Authority • COMMUNICATION PLANS: Chain Of Communication • DESIGN CONTROL!

At OE, our project controls framework encompasses a range of activities and processes designed to ensure that projects are completed on time, within budget, and to the required quality standards. Below are the key components of our project controls approach. DESIGN KICK-OFF MEETING & PROJECT MEETINGS The kickoff meeting is a critical first step in setting the stage for a successful project. During this meeting, we: • Establish project goals and objectives as well as any technical requirements. • Define roles and responsibilities. • Review the project schedule and milestones. • Discuss potential risks and mitigation strategies. • Set expectations for communication and collaboration. Regular project meetings are held to monitor progress, address any issues, and keep all stakeholders informed. These meetings facilitate open communication, ensuring that everyone is aligned and working towards the same goals. SCHEDULE CONTROL Monitoring the project schedule is vital to identify any delays early and take corrective actions. Ourapproach includes: • Regularly updating the project schedule. • Comparing planned progress with actual progress. • Identifying the root causes of any slippage. • Implementing corrective measures to get the project back on track. We hold two internal meetings weekly: one for status updates and the other for resource allocation. These meetings help us stay aligned, address any emerging issues promptly, and ensure that resources are used effectively to keep the project on track.

These reports help us: • Assess the "Health of Schedule" by comparing the value of work planned (PV) to the value of work actually completed (EV). • Proactively identify schedule variances and areas that may require corrective action. • Provide transparency and insight into project progress for all stakeholders. By proactively tracking schedule slippage and using EV and PV reports, we minimize delays and keep the project moving forward. AGILE PROJECT MANAGEMENT We also use ClickUp to monitor and track workload and resources. ClickUp enables us to manage tasks, allocate resources efficiently, and monitor project progress in real-time. Various views within ClickUp help us manage different phases of the project, such as utility notifications and research. It also supports views like Task List, Gantt Chart, and Kanban Boards. This tool supports our Agile Project Management (PM) practices by allowing us to: �) RFP, for the City of Rosemead, Walnut Grove Avenue I 118 Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project SECTION 1: Approach, and Scope of Work • Break down projects into manageable tasks, sub -tasks and checklists. • Adjust priorities dynamically based on project needs. • Facilitate collaboration and communication among team members.

INTERSTATE 405 FREEWAY WIDENING PROJECT, THE DEPARTMENT OF OCTA Converse Consultants provided geotechnical engineering, environmental consulting, and materials testing on the Interstate 405 Freeway Widening Project for the Orange County Transportation Authority. The project encompasses a 16-mile portion between the 73 Freeway in Costa Mesa and the 605 Freeway near Rossmoor. The McFadden Avenue bridge over the 405 Freeway in Huntington Beach and Westminster was closed for about a year so it could be rebuilt. The existing configuration had one lane in each direction and a sidewalk on the north side of the bridge. Once it was demolished and then rebuilt, it included two lanes in each direction and a sidewalk and a bike lane in each direction. The McFadden Avenue bridge was one of more than 18 bridges that were either built, widened or replaced for the 405 widening, to help improve travel times on the freeway. When the project was completed, both directions of the 405 in that stretch had an additional general-purpose lane, along with a new "express" toll lane. The existing carpool lane in both directions were converted to an express lane. The project, one of many freeway improvement projects currently being built or in the planning stages, was funded through Measure M and SB1. Converse Consultants maintained a network of Caltrans-certified laboratories during the project life cycle. RIVERSIDE SHOOTING RANGE PHASE II ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ASSESSMENT, RIVERSIDE Converse Consultants performed a limited Phase II Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) for a Shooting range near a lake in Riverside County. The range is set up so that rounds are fired away from the lake, and impact was directed into the toe -slope of the mountainous terrain to the north. The shooting range is thought to have been reconstructed in the 1970s and was identified as a Recognized Environmental Condition (REC) in a phase I environmental site assessment due to its use as a shooting range for at least 60 years. The lead and copper bullet materials had reportedly not been collected or removed from the site since original construction. The objectives of the assessment were to evaluate the impacts to site soils from lead, copper, and other heavy metals from use as a shooting range, and to identify if potential target analytes were present at concentrations greater than the threshold criteria. Samples of surface soils were collected from 8 locations in the berms beyond the targets. Soil samples were also collected at 6-inch intervals to a maximum depth of 2 feet from 8 borings completed using direct -push drilling methods in the areas where shots fell between the shooting and target areas. The samples were submitted to a state Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELAP) certified laboratory. The results of this assessment indicated that the soils in the impact areas located beyond the shooting targets were impacted with elevated levels of lead, copper, and antimony. Soils in the areas that shots fell were found to not be significantly impacted. Based on the findings of the assessment, Converse recommended remediation of the lead impacted soil, including the removal of bullet and bullet fragments in the impact areas located beyond the shooting targets. All impacted soil needed to be handled and removed as a hazardous waste, with further testing for waste profiling purposes being conducted. Confirmation sampling was then conducted to evaluate if impacted soil had been sufficiently remediated.

City of Rosemead I Engineering & Design Services for the Preparation of PSaE for RICK I® Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Blvd Resurfacing Projects SECTION 1 \ Approach, and Scope of Work NEPA Documentation Support: HELIX will prepare a draft PES Form to establish coordination with Caltrans Division of Local Assistance (DLA), determine the NEPA Class of Action, and identify technical study requirements. The draft will be revised based on City and Caltrans review. It is assumed the PES will conclude the project qualifies for a Categorical Exclusion without technical studies, based on 23 CFR 771.117(c)(3) and (c)(7). Caltrans DLA will prepare and process the Categorical Exclusion after CEQA is complete. Environmental Technical Analysis and Reports: Technical analysis will be limited to cultural resources. HELIX will complete a cultural resources assessment, including records search, review of historic aerials, NAHC Sacred Lands File request, and a site visit. If requested, HELIX will conduct outreach to tribes and local groups. A cultural resources letter report will document findings and support CEQA and Caltrans screening. CEQA Notice of Exemption (NOE): Based on technical findings, HELIX will prepare documentation in support of a Class 1 Categorical Exemption under Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines. HELIX will prepare a draft NOE form with a brief summary document (up to five pages of text and three graphics), revised once in response to City comments. HELIX will provide electronic copies of the draft and final NOE; the City will be responsible for filing and paying applicable fees. Task 2.2: Right -of -Way Research, Survey & Topographic Base Mapping Our trusted partner KDM Meridian will research assessor parcel maps, Right -of -Way (ROW) maps, and recorded easements. Existing right-of-way lines will be shown on the base plans. If Temporary Construction Easements (TCEs) are required, they will be clearly noted and included in plan sheets for the City's acquisition process. This task includes aerial and field surveying to support mapping and design efforts. New aerial photography will be acquired and processed into 1" = 20' topographic maps with 1/2' contours, extending 15 feet beyond the right-of-way and 25 feet along intersecting streets. Utility lids will be identified, and centerlines and ROW will be drafted using record maps and existing monumentation, with orthophotos and a digital terrain model generated. Up to three days of field survey work will supplement the aerial data as needed, including pothole collection and detailed curb ramp surveys. Aerial mapping will serve as the base for all project design except where augmentation is requested. This task also assumes no ground survey will be performed for raised medians, as the proposed medians will follow existing asphalt grades. If bike lane improvements require construction beyond the ROW, temporary construction easements (TCEs) will be prepared, including title report review, parcel delineation, and preparation of legal and plat documents. Property lines extending beyond the ROW will not be shown unless a TCE is needed. Task 2.3: Bicycle Facility Feasibility We will evaluate the physical and operational feasibility of bicycle lanes along Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard, referencing roadway width, curb returns, traffic volumes, and City standards. Feasible options will be presented with typical sections and preliminary striping plans for City review. Task 2.3 includes conducting a traffic assessment to evaluate the feasibility of implementing bicycle facilities along Walnut Grove Avenue (from Marshall Street to San Gabriel Boulevard) and Valley Boulevard (from Charlotte Avenue to Strang Avenue, East City Limit). The assessment will consist of the following tasks: Data Collection: Perform a field visit to the project corridors to verify existing roadway and lane widths, on -street parking conditions, traffic signage, and traffic control types at intersections along the project. Obtain and review available traffic data from City records, including traffic volumes, signal timing, as-builts and bicycle -related collision history. General Plan Consistency: Review the most recent City of Rosemead General Plan to verify roadway classifications and assess the consistency of the proposed bicycle improvements with existing and planned bicycle networks. Conceptual Design/Exhibits: Develop a preliminary alignment for bicycle facilities within the project limits. This will include striping layout over high - resolution aerial imagery and providing typical cross sections at key locations. City of Rosemead I Engineering & Design Services for the Preparation of PS&E for RICK Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Blvd Resurfacing Projects \ SECTION 1 \ Approach, and Scope of Work Feasibility Assessment Letter: Prepare a summary letter of assessment presenting key findings. The letter will identify any design or implementation constraints, including physical limitations and interagency right-of-way (ROW) considerations, and provide recommendations. It is anticipated that a portion of the bicycle signing and striping layout along Walnut Grove Avenue between Marshall Street and Ramona Blvd at the 1-10 freeway will encroach into Caltrans ROW. A Caltrans Encroachment Permit application will be filled and submitted to Caltrans District 7 for review/approval. Task includes addressing one review cycle comments. At this time, this task focuses on core project deliverables. Traffic Control Plans, Traffic Signal Modification plans for the approximately 19 signalized intersections to incorporate bicycle detection, and traffic analysis calculations or studies are not included in this scope, but can be addressed under a separate scope if needed. Task 2.4: City Entry Monuments Our landscape architecture team will develop three distinct monument design concepts for Valley Boulevard, reflecting community identity and durability. Each concept will include renderings and construction feasibility considerations to inform City Council selection. Workshops will be a key strategy in communicating project information and soliciting feedback from stakeholders. RICK will work with City staff and attend three (3) workshop meetings with stakeholders as identified by City staff. The first workshop will be held prior to presenting preliminary monument design, to solicit stakeholder feedback on entry monument design priorities (style, scale, mass, color, materials, etc.). A project area Preliminary Landscape Plan will provide a high-level representation of the proposed street improvements, entry monument locations, and raised medians for water quality features to help meet the City of Rosemead's stormwater and water quality objectives. Preliminary landscape Plans will identify examples of potential plant material, trees, shrubs, and groundcovers. Preliminary plant selection will focus on regionally, and project appropriate, drought -tolerant species that require minimal maintenance. The second workshop will be held to present alternative entry monument design options, three (3) design alternatives, based on the feedback received in the first meeting, with material options will be presented to gauge stakeholder interest. The third workshop will present the updated alternatives entry monument design options and determine the selection of the preferred alternative through stakeholder feedback. RICK will provide a PowerPoint presentation and materials for collecting feedback. RICK will organize the responses received to aid in the City's decision -making process of selecting the preferred alternative. The three entry monument concepts, along with an overview of feedback from the public outreach workshops, will be presented to the City Council for input and approval of the selected preferred alternative. The City staff feedback on the Preliminary Landscape Plan and selected entry monument concept design will be incorporated and developed further during the construction documents phase. Task 2.5: Raised Median and Stormwater Improvements Our landscape architect and water resources teams will jointly design the medians to meet water quality objectives while maximizing aesthetics and functionality. Design elements will include drought -tolerant planting, rain gardens, planters, and subgrade biotreatment features consistent with LID standards. We will evaluate both existing and proposed medians for treatment capacity and erosion control. A planting plan will be prepared to graphically locate and identify trees, shrubs, and groundcover plant materials, including specific quantities, sizes, and varieties, and include the necessary details and legends for installation. RICK will utilize trees, shrubs and groundcovers that are drought tolerant and regionally appropriate landscape materials for water quality features.

Preliminary Green Infrastructure (GI) Design - As part of the preliminary engineering phase, preliminary water quality, hydrologic, and hydraulic analyses will be prepared for the stormwater capture improvements associated with the proposed raised center medians along Valley Boulevard and the existing raised center medians along Walnut Grove Avenue from Valley Boulevard Marshall Street to San Gabriel Boulevard. These analyses will inform the final engineering design during the PS&E phase. Detailed analyses, exhibits, and preparation of the Low Impact Development (LID) Report will be completed under each milestone submittal (i.e., 60%, 90%, and 100%). The preliminary design of the raised center medians will include a conceptual layout of potential GI components such as rain gardens, planters, linear bioretention swales, or a combination thereof that could be integrated into the medians to capture and retain and/or treat the 85th-percentile water quality design storm for pollutants of concern, in alignment with the City's stormwater and water quality objectives. Based on infiltration test results, if infiltration rates are sufficient, the 85th-percentile Stormwater Quality Design Volume (SWQDv) could be fully retained onsite. If infiltration is deemed infeasible, biotreatment BMPs can be considered to treat 1.5 times the portion of the SWQDv that is not reliably retained on -site pursuant to Attachment H of the MS4 permit (Order No. R4-2012-0175). area, per Section 1.6 of the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works (LACDPW) Low Impact Development Standards Manual (February 2014). As such, the project must comply with the USEPA Green Streets Guidance to the maximum extent practicable. The GI components proposed as part of the project shall be designed to maximize onsite retention and treatment of the SWQDv and provide co -benefits such as native drought tolerant landscape and irrigation, enhanced streetscape aesthetics, shade, and pedestrian comfort, consistent with both regional stormwater compliance objectives and community priorities. The GI design will include water quality calculations, proposed sizing of the GI, and any other information used to show the proposed GI is sized appropriately per the LID Standards Manual (February 2014).

Task 2.6: Infiltration Testing & LID Analysis In coordination with City staff, we will identify up to three locations for percolation testing based on median layout and hydrology needs. Testing will be performed per Los Angeles County LID guidelines, and results will be used to inform BMP sizing and design for the 85th percentile storm event. Our trusted partner GMU will conduct preliminary infiltration testing at the proposed raised center medians along Valley Boulevard and for the existing raised center medians along Walnut Grove Avenue from Valley Boulevard to San Gabriel Boulevard. Infiltration testing will consist of excavating eight (8) hand auger borings to an estimated depth of 3 to 5 feet below ground surface. The proposed infiltration locations will be excavated using a hand auger, the soils will be logged by a staff engineer or geologist, soil samples will be collected for limited laboratory testing prior to performing infiltration testing in general conformance with Los Angeles County Guidelines for Geotechnical investigation and reporting Low Impact Development Stormwater. The locations of proposed percolation tests will be coordinated with City Staff. Our budget accounts for two days of percolation testing, scheduled between 8 AM and 5 PM. Once the percolation testing is complete, we will backfill the core hole with soil cuttings or other appropriate materials. We assume that the infiltration locations will be performed within planter areas and not within the street limits, and that traffic control or traffic control plans will not be required for percolation testing; therefore, such costs were not considered in our fee. Our team will perform a Low Impact Development (LID) analysis in accordance with Los Angeles County LID Manual and MS4 permit requirements. The analysis will evaluate stormwater runoff from the project corridors and determine opportunities for infiltration, biotreatment, or capture within proposed landscaped medians and parkway areas. We will size LID Best Management Practices (BMPs) to meet the 85th percentile storm event and integrate them into the overall roadway and landscape design. The results of the analysis will be documented in a technical memorandum, providing the City with a clear record of compliance and ensuring that stormwater quality objectives are fully addressed within the PS&E package. Task 2.7: Hydrology/Hydraulics Report We will prepare a concise drainage analysis documenting anticipated runoff, pollutant load reductions, and design recommendations for water quality features, consistent with County and MS4 permit standards. This scope assumes that overall imperviousness and drainage patterns will remain generally consistent between pre- and post -project conditions, and detailed hydrologic and hydraulic analysis is not included. However, minor hydrologic and hydraulic analyses will be performed to support the design of green street BMPs within the raised center medians and the overall roadway resurfacing such as BMP catch basin sizing (up to 10), roadway inlet sizing (up to 5 for inlet relocations if any), street capacity/ dry lane analysis (up to 5), normal depth storm drain sizing for proposed storm drains 18 inches and larger, and BMP outfall design. Minor drainage analysis shall be based on the LACDPW Hydrology Manual (January 2006) and the Hydraulic Design Manual (March 2002).

City of Rosemead I Engineering & Design Services for the Preparation of PS&E for RICK \ Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Blvd Resurfacing Projects \ 38 Streamview Drive is a 1.3-mile-long residential two-lane collector that serves as the boundary between the communities of Redwood Village to the north and Oak Park to the south. Although classified as a two-lane collector, its right-of-way width varies between 90 and 110 feet, which is equivalent to a four -lane urban collector, as defined by the City of San Diego's Street Design Manual. This width encourages speeding, dangerous driving, and is visually unappealing for the surrounding communities. Two roundabouts were constructed at the intersections with Lynn/Michael Street and Gayle Street, and reverse -angled parking was added between them to accommodate the numerous multifamily housing developments as part of the Streamview Drive Phase 1 Project. The current project phase will construct five more roundabouts from 54th Street to Lynn/Michael Street and from Gayle Street to College Avenue to enhance safety, reduce speeds, and increase pedestrian and bicycle mobility. The roadway will be narrowed and include new curbs, sidewalks, curb ramps, bus stops, street lighting, traffic signal modifications, and green infrastructure improvements. Additionally, a 258-acre drainage tributary area under Streamview Drive, which flows directly into Chollas Creek, will be addressed by incorporating a multi -use treatment area (MUTA) with two buried vaults to reduce total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) in the watershed. Water, sewer, storm drain, and utility replacements and relocations will also be included.

Addenda Acknowledgement RICK acknowledges addendum No. 1 City of Rosemead I Engineering & Design Services for the Preparation of PS&E for RICK Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Blvd Resurfacing Projects \ 40 Demonstration of Innovation At RICK, we consistently evaluate pragmatic approaches to integrating innovative techniques and disruptive technologies into our projects. Our philosophy is to adopt tools that not only push the boundaries of engineering practice but also deliver tangible benefits in safety, efficiency, accuracy, and cost savings for our clients. By carefully matching each technology to the specific requirements of the Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project, we ensure that innovation is not used for its own sake, but rather as a strategic means to improve project outcomes and maximize value for the City of Rosemead. Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) We will employ Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) to capture highly detailed, three- dimensional data of the project corridors, where necessary. Unlike traditional surveying methods, TLS produces a dense point cloud that provides precise elevations, roadway geometry, curb ramp conditions, and existing utility/streetscape features. Just as important, TLS significantly improves safety: the instrument can be set up outside of active traffic lanes, reducing exposure for vehicles, pedestrians, and survey crews. This minimizes traffic disruptions and enhances public safety during field work. For the City, TLS delivers greater design accuracy, fewer construction conflicts, reduced change orders, and safer field operations, all of which translate to cost and time savings. Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) To ensure pavement rehabilitation strategies are both durable and cost-effective, we will incorporate Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) testing where necessary. This nondestructive method evaluates in -place pavement structural capacity by simulating actual traffic loads and measuring surface deflection responses. FWD data allows us to design rehabilitation treatments tailored to the specific conditions of Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard, avoiding overdesign and premature failures. This results in optimized pavement life -cycle costs, minimized maintenance needs, and longer -lasting roadway performance for the City. Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) We will also use Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to non -invasively investigate subsurface conditions, including pavement thickness, moisture intrusion, and potential voids where necessary. GPR provides continuous coverage and real-time data, supplementing core sampling with a more complete understanding of pavement layers and underground features. This technology improves decision -making by identifying problem areas early, reducing unforeseen conditions during construction. For the City, the benefit is improved reliability of design recommendations, fewer surprises in the field, and greater confidence in construction delivery. Optional Services In addition to our core scope, we can provide a range of optional services we have successfully implemented on other projects. These enhancements are not required for delivery of the PS&E package but can offer added value by improving efficiency, safety, and stakeholder engagement. Each is scalable and can be tailored to the City's priorities and budget. City of Rosemead I Engineering & Design Services for the Preparation of PS&E for FUCK Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Blvd Resurfacing Projects \ 41 Optional Service: UAV (Drone) Surveying NOW- As an optional enhancement, we can deploy UAV (drone) surveying equipped with LiDAR to complement terrestrial laser scanning. This technology rapidly captures corridor -scale data, including aerial imagery, roadway geometry, and topographic detail, which can be directly integrated into Civil 3D base mapping. For the City, this means broader coverage of Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard with less field time, as well as high -resolution imagery that can be used to support public workshops and City Council presentations. This service increases efficiency, improves design visualization, and strengthens community engagement. Optional Service: GIS-Based Utility Coordination We can also provide a GIS-based Utility Conflict Matrix as an optional service to streamline utility coordination. By integrating utility record drawings, survey data, and proposed improvements into a digital GIS platform, potential conflicts are automatically flagged early in design. This proactive tool allows for faster utility notifications, clearer communication with utility companies, and reduced risk of costly construction delays. For the City, this optional service offers greater certainty in construction delivery, fewer surprises in the field, and increased overall project efficiency. Optional Service: View Simulations To enhance stakeholder engagement and decision -making, we can develop 3D view simulations and photo -realistic renderings of proposed improvements such as City Entry Monuments, raised medians, and bicycle facilities. These visualizations allow City staff, Council, and the public to clearly understand how the improvements will look in context before construction begins. This service helps build consensus, minimizes late -stage design revisions, and ensures that the City's vision for aesthetics and identity is fully realized. Together, our innovative technologies — Terrestrial Laser Scanning, Falling Weight Deflectometer testing, and Ground Penetrating Radar —combined with optional enhancements such as UAV/LiDAR surveys, GIS-based utility coordination, and view simulations, demonstrate our commitment to innovation with purpose. Each technology is chosen not for novelty alone, but for its ability to improve safety, efficiency, accuracy, sustainability, and stakeholder confidence. By applying these tools strategically, we provide the City of Rosemead with both cutting -edge methods and pragmatic solutions that directly support the successful delivery of the Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project.

Addenda Acknowledgment 45 Appendix Mmesa% Section 1. Approach and Scope of Work IMD4 Project Understanding ERSC has reviewed the project details for the engineering and design services related to the preparation of plans, specifications and estimates (PS&E) for the Walnut Grove Avenue resurfacing Phase 2 and Valley Boulevard resurfacing project, as described in the City of Rosemead (City) request for proposal (RFP). This project includes pavement rehabilitation, ADA-compliant improvements, a bicycle lanes feasibility study, and the integration of raised medians designed to meet Los Angeles County Water Quality Management requirements. Walnut Grove Avenue is classified as a major street running north -south that connects to Interstate 10 (1-10), while Valley Boulevard is a major street running from east to west within the City limits. Both streets serve as alternate routes that help relieve traffic congestion on the freeways during peak hours. Therefore, knowing the importance of maintaining the pavement condition of these streets, the scope of the project includes the pavement rehabilitation on Walnut Street, from south of Marshall Street to San Gabriel Boulevard, with a PCI ranging between 57 to 80, and on Valley Boulevard from Charlote Avenue to Eaton Wash, with a PCI between 64 to 80, as stated in the RFP. Walnut Grove Avenue, which runs under the 1-10 freeway and over the Alhambra Wash, currently has raised medians in certain sections, while Valley Boulevard does not have any raised medians, only painted or striped medians. As part of this project, new raised medians will be proposed along the Valley Boulevard project limits. Both the existing medians on Walnut Grove Avenue and the proposed medians on Valley Boulevard will serve not only as traffic -calming and streetscape features, but also as low -impact development (LID) facilities for stormwater capture, treatment, and infiltration. Additionally, the 2010 Rosemead General Plan identifies Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard as potential locations for bicycle routes, however, no further studies have been conducted. Therefore, the project will include a study to determine the feasibility of incorporating bicycle lanes along the project limits. The ERSC team conducted an in -person site visit prior to preparing this proposal to ensure a thorough understanding of the project and to inform the development of an effective approach. Please see the following key observations; • Existing Concrete Pavement on Walnut Grove Avenue: As observed during our field review, there are certain zones where concrete pavement is present. These areas include bus stops, section of pavement on the Caltrans right-of-way for the 1-10 freeway, and the Alhambra Wash overcrossing. As confirmed by the RFP Q&A, these areas are not required to be included in the geotechnical investigation for paving analysis and recommendations. Although the concrete appeared to be in good condition, information collected during the preliminary engineering phase will help determine its actual condition. However, it is assumed that no concrete replacements will be part of the scope of the project. • Caltrans Coordination: Walnut Grove Avenue runs underthe 1-10freeway; therefore, based on ERSC's experience, an encroachment permit from Caltrans will be required. • Existing Drainage Patterns: Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard are crowned streets, where runoff is directed to the gutters on both sides and discharged to a series of catch basins located along both project streets. For the existing and proposed raised medians to function as BMP facilities for stormwater treatment and infiltration, modifications to the existing drainage patterns and system may be required. ERSC will review the collected information, along with the Los Angeles County Low Impact Development (LID) Manual and the Los Angeles County Standard Urban Stormwater Mitigation Plan (SUSMP), to determine the most feasible alternatives for capturing street runoff based on project conditions. • ADA Curb Ramps: Based on observations, some of the existing ADA curb ramps will require modifications to comply with the 2022 California Building Code (CBC). Using the collected information, ERSC will evaluate the existing conditions and propose ramp modifications in accordance with the CBC, City standards, and the Greenbook standards, in coordination with the City. Existing Concrete Pavement nit•. i� ' Existing Drainage ti. UT, i� ADA Curb Ramps Scope of Work The scope of work presented herein reflects the challenges and key observations identified during that field visit. TASK A - PROJECT MANAGEMENT ERSC will work with the City to schedule a project kick-off meeting once the project is awarded. The intent of this meeting is to introduce both sides of the team and understand the varying roles of team members. This meeting will allow our team to review any changes in Project scope, ask and answer questions that either side may have on the Project, and understand any special requirements the City may request as a part of the Project. This task also includes attendance at bi-weekly progress conference calls to update the City of the project progress, ask questions, and bring up to attention design issues that may be encounter. Additionally, ERSC will coordinate meeting with the City to review and discussed the 60%, 90%, and 100% submittals. As part of this task, ERSC will attend up to five (5) workshops and one (1) city council meeting to present the City Entry monument alternatives and the feasibility of proposing bicycle lanes to the City.

Deliverables: • Preliminary Environmental Study (PES) Form • NEPA C E-76 Approval Package • Categorical Exclusion Checklist Task 13.2 — Geotechnical Investigation Forthe Geotechnical Engineering investigation, ERSC has partnered with Aragon Geotechnical, and part of their scope is intended to: (1) Delineate the locations and recommended options for street restoration work; (2) Characterize soil conditions in areas of prospective concrete construction (curb cuts, ramps, sidewalks, new median islands in Valley Boulevard, etc.); (3) Create earthen-subgrade and new -pavement specifications; (4) Obtain design infiltration velocities for proposed median BMPs; and (5) Provide engineering recommendations for design of an overhead flashing beacon pole foundation near a City fire station. RFP project descriptions and AGI's reviews of Internet imagery and regional soils maps constitute the basis for our proposal. Infiltration testing is included in the scope per the City RFP and would be guided by Los Angeles County LID Manual testing requirements. Pavement & Geotechnical Design Evaluations: Pavement assessment is expected to encompass the curb -to -curb widths of the 4.2 center -line miles along the two streets. Existing pavements include AC and PCC surfaces; However, some of the former on Valley Boulevard are believed to have hidden concrete sections. The pavement sections are also expected to vary transversely, given episodic street widening and overlays we were able to interpret via historical aerial images dating back 87 years. The pavement evaluations would focus on the areas and types of maintenance or restorations intended to add longevity and develop safe Class II -IV bike paths. A qualified AGI engineer will physically survey the streets in both travel directions. Distress features will be categorized and mapped. Strip maps on either topographical or aerial photo base maps would be the expected final instruments. The pavement evaluations will include invasive coring, aggregate base and subgrade sampling, and performance of in -place stiffness testing with a dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) device. Cores will be saved for laboratory measurements and section photos. The exact locations of cores and dynamic testing remain to be identified. However, coring locations will not be random. AGI senior staff will interpret serial aerial photos to ascertain installation date ranges for widened segments. Subgrade soil samples will be saved for index and engineering tests. The RFP specifies and AGI would perform 68 cores total along the two street alignments. A small set of deeper hollow -stem auger soil borings will be required for CIDH foundation design (fire station beacon, one boring) and for the infiltration feasibility assessment. Borings will be supervised by AGI's senior engineering geologist. Representative soil samples will be collected using ring -lined barrels at the CIDH location for laboratory testing of in -place density, strength, and corrosion potential. AGI propose three exploration borings in existing landscape medians along Walnut Grove Avenue. The number of possible Valley Boulevard median islands is unknown but could be more than a dozen. AGI will select a representative subset of island sites for four explorations encompassing two mapped soil series. The infiltration study will include sampling for consolidation and grain size analyses to meet L.A. County standards [GS200.1 requirements]. The eight total soil borings can be drilled in one work day. Professional traffic control services will be needed for brief single -lane detours around our work zones. Additionally, if any petromat or fabric is found during the explorations, AGI team will notify ERSC team and the City. Infiltration Testing: AGI assumes that the goal of median -island BMPs is 100% capture and infiltration of incident precipitation only. This should be achievable with a porous amended -soil zone composing the "reservoir." The streets are crowned, with runoff now collecting in curbside gutters. It does not appear feasible to turn median islands into "active" basin -type BMPs treating pavement runoff. The latter use case would also imply substantial design capture volumes and required BMP storage. These in turn can pose serious risks to pavement integrity due to lateral water movement into soil subgrades. Basins should be discouraged. Subterranean systems probably are feasible, however. AGI will tailor testing depths to the inferred depth of amended soil zones or inverts of buried storage devices, as appropriate. Percolation tests in small -diameter boreholes are allowed under County criteria and would be used for the median locations. Test holes may be advanced with the hollow -stem auger rig or with a six -inch -diameter manual auger. Budgeting includes five percolation tests in Walnut Grove Avenue. The AGI-selected Valley Boulevard island sites will be cored as part of the pavement evaluation. Four test sites are assumed (any individual proposed island site may have paired percolation test holes installed to improve results reliability). Infiltration testing will require two days and two AGI technicians. No explorations or tests are planned for the very narrow existing medians where Walnut Grove Avenue intersects the Interstate 10 freeway. Access is difficult, and infiltration other than incident rain near bridge infrastructure would not be recommended. AGI can perform limited explorations at the toe of neighboring cut slopes if basic soil classification data are needed. Deliverables: AGI assumes that one preliminary written report encompassing both named streets will be adequate. Separate reports would entail added charges. The report will comprise pavement and geotechnical design subsections and an infiltration feasibility subsection. Pavement exhibits will document the soils investigation and pavement evaluation findings, conclusions, opinions, and construction alternatives for the two street alignments. Sample subgrade preparation specifications for PCC street improvements (curbs, sidewalks, ramps, etc.) will be assembled. Pavement restoration and replacement options outlined in the City's RFP will be considered utilizing data from the historical reviews and cored locations. Recommendations for excavation slopes and trench shoring methods, backfills, concrete mixes, and any special dewatering requirements can be added if any subsurface utility excavations are proposed. Draft plus final report editions are expected. Final bound client copies and an electronic PDF file will include appendices with graphical boring logs, summaries of laboratory test standards and our obtained results, core photos, and the strip map exhibits depicting pavement distress areas, cored sites, and soil boring locations. Task B.3 — Bicycle Facilities Feasibility Study ERSC will conduct a comprehensive, data -driven feasibility study that will evaluate the suitability of both project corridor segments for bicycle facilities by considering existing conditions, proposed potential impacts, and community needs. Our feasibility study would be focused on traffic flow, level of service, and corridor safety. First, our team will assess the impact of adding bicycle facilities on vehicle capacity and traffic flow by utilizing traffic models and analysis tools to determine if vehicular lane reductions are feasible and would still provide acceptable levels of service through the subject sections. Concurrently, we will evaluate the available roadway width through both corridors to come up with realistic options for the potentially proposed bike facilities that 4 could include conventional bike lanes, buffered bike lanes, or separated cycle tracks. Our team will also review traffic data collected per the scope of this task, collision data for the corridors to identify potential patterns of collisions, particularly those involving bicycles and pedestrians. We will use this research to evaluate the safety implications of each different bike facility type. If possible, ERSC would coordinate closely with the City to develop a plan to engage with the public, local businesses, and community groups regarding the potential to include bicycle facilities on these corridors. This item will be included as part of the virtual or in -person workshops described in Task A, online surveys, and/or a dedicated project website. This outreach would help us gather feedback on residents' and commuters' travel patterns, concerns about safety, and the community's desire for bicycle facilities in these locations. Deliverables: ERSC will compile a detailed technical memorandum summarizing the findings of this feasibility study; provide clear, data -backed recommendations on the most suitable types and locations of bicycle facilities for each corridor; present multiple options with pros and cons for different facility types, considering their impact on traffic flow, safety, and project cost; and submit a final recommendation to the City on whether to proceed with the implementation of bicycle facilities as part of these resurfacing projects. Task 13.4 — Preliminary Layout As part of this task, ERSC will analyze site conditions using information collected from the survey and geotechnical investigation to determine street drainage conditions, BMP alternatives, potential conflicts with existing utilities, and adjoining property driveways, as well as evaluating potential future conflicts to be addressed during the design phase. As discussed, the streets are crown, and therefore drainage patterns will need to be modified to convert the raised medians into infiltration/retention BMPs, which may impact existing improvements. ERSC will evaluate various BMP alternatives and present them to the City for coordination and agreement. The survey will include all curb return elevations, which will be reviewed for ADA compliance with current requirements. ERSC will review and discuss with the City any possible challenges associated with reconstruction of new ADA ramps that may affect adjacent properties. Where necessary to show or clarify modifications, ramps will be detailed at a 1" = 10' scale. Additionally, ERSC will identify all areas where concrete pavement is currently used, such as bus stops, Caltrans and LA County Flood Control District's right-of-way. Based on this analysis, ERSC will prepare a preliminary horizontal layout showing the locations of proposed raised medians, proposed BMP facilities, and ADA ramp reconstructions required. The preliminary layout will be submitted to the City for approval prior to proceeding with the 60% design phase. Deliverables: • Preliminary layout including plan view only 24"06" (Arch D) digital files • Preliminary ADA ramps details scale 1"=10' TASK C — SURVEY Survey and mapping for the project will be performed using ERSC in-house efforts, and in partnership with Inland Aerial Surveys. ERSC's Survey Division will collect project information for mapping and design. Conventional ground survey methods will be used to gather the required cross sections and intersection details, while an aerial survey will be utilized to collect the entire corridor's surface features. This method allows for less time for crews in the field and cost savings to the City. ERSC's staff will collect relevant right-of-way records, records of survey, maps, and other recorded documents to assist in monument recovery and right-of-way/property mapping. The research gathered will be incorporated in office calculations to be utilized in the field for monument recovery. Control Survey: ERSC will conduct a control survey for the project. Using the calculations generated in the survey research and base mapping, field crews will recover available monumentation in the project area to control the horizontal, vertical, right of way, and property locations along the alignment. Horizontal datum will be established on CA State Plane NAD83 Zone V coordinate system. Vertical Datum will be established on either NGVD 29 or NAVD88 Datum depending on benchmarks local to the project. During this task, ERSC will also establish control points along the entire alignment for reference during the cross-section survey and for use during construction as needed. Aerial targets will be set for control of the aerial survey. Topographic Survey: ERSC will conduct a topographic survey of the project area. ERSC's crews will gather ground topographic survey data in cross sections at 50' intervals along Walnut Grove Avenue and at 25' intervals along Valley Boulevard. The cross-section intervals are determined based on the existing running slope of the street, with Valley Boulevard presenting a shallower running slope of approximately 0.5 to 0.8 percent; therefore, additional cross sections will be required to establish existing drainage patterns. In addition, survey data will be collected at intermediate appurtenances (utilities) and intersections. This data will be utilized to assist with quantities, detailed ADA ramp design, striping, and other design. To complete the topographic survey, Inland Aerial Surveys will conduct an aerial flight and topographic survey of the site. The aerial survey will provide a 200-foot-wide swath along the project alignment and extend 50-feet beyond the alignment. The aerial survey will collect spot elevations and all surface features, improvements, and planimetrics (including supplementary information for water valves, manholes, and hydrants) relevant to the project. Base Mapping: ERSC's team will generate a basemap for the project. Utilizing the monuments recovered in the control task, ERSC will draft right of way and property boundaries for the project area. Any easements of record abutting or within the project noted within research will be included. Data gathered in the topographic survey task will be reduced to map ground features and contours within the project area. All surface features will be shown as well as contours at 1-foot intervals. The mapping will be generated using AutoCAD Civil3D. Surface features will be drawn with linework and blocks for all surface features. A TINN Surface will be created for generating contours. The basemap will be quality verified and provided to ERSC's design team for use in the project's design. Deliverables: • Topographic Base Map (AutoCAD format, if needed) • TINN Surface (AutoCAD C3D format, if needed) TASK D — UTILITY RESEARCH AND DATA COLLECTION As-Builts Research, Investigation and Review ERSC will conduct research of all record data available. This research is expected to yield as -built drawings, schematics, sketches, maps, and any other available record data available from utility companies, City staff and others. Such record data may include street improvement plans, signing and striping plans, streetlight plans, storm drain plans, water, sewer, traffic signal and other information for utilities in the area. Our team will utilize this data in the design of the project and will incorporate it into the project drawings for record purposes. Utility Coordination, Reach and Notification ERSC will perform utility research and obtain all available utility information within the project limits by researching Dig Alert for a list of utility providers. It is anticipated this will include, but not be limited to: Golden State Water Company, San Gabriel Valley Water Company, Southern California Gas, Southern California Edison, various communication companies, and others as applicable. Several of these utilities have visible appurtenances located within the project corridor. ERSC will perform an initial notice via email or via the applicable on-line records request portal. Many utility companies now require a fee to distribute utility information. ERSC will recoup these fees under the reimbursables line in the budget. All record information will be documented and filed in the project files. ERSC will review all applicable base map plans, atlas maps, substructure maps, specifications, reports, and record data for all existing utilities, agencies, and companies involved in the project area and incorporate them into plan and profile drawings with necessary detail. Should any of the utilities conflict with proposed improvements, ERSC will discuss with City staff to determine the preferred solution depending upon if the Utility has prior rights. Deliverables: • Copies of all correspondence/notices with affected utility agencies (upon request) • Copies of maps and record data provided from the affected utility agencies (upon request) TASK E — COMPOSITE UTILITY PLAN & POTHOLING (OPTIONAL) In the event it is determined in the previous task that existing utilities may conflict with the proposed improvements, ERSC will prepare composite utility plans showing the detailed location, size, and material of existing utilities. The proposed design developed during the preliminary layout task will serve as the basis for identifying physical conflicts and grade changes affecting minimum and maximum cover requirements for the various utilities. The composite plans will be used to generate a potholing map for the potholing contractor to locate critical utilities. It is assumed that approximately 12 pothole locations will be required for the project. Results from the potholing will be used to discuss potential conflicts with the City and utility owners, if required, and will be used for the final design plans for the project. TASK F — PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS & ESTIMATE With the information collected and the City's approval of the layout present from previous tasks, ERSC will develop a set of plans, specifications and cost estimate for the proposed improvements as described in the following sections. Task F.1— Street Improvement Plans With information gathered in prior tasks, and the approved preliminary design, ERSC will prepare the full set of plans for street pavement rehabilitation and improvements. It is anticipated that all to -scale plans will be prepared at 1" =20' or 40' scale, per City preference. Details will be prepared on a larger scale as necessary to provide clarity. Street improvement plans will provide plan and profile. The plan will show both sides of the street from right-of-way lines and all existing surface and below -grade topography. Existing profiles will be shown for centerline and either TC or edge of gutter on either side of the roadway. Proposed profiles will be shown for the new raised median on Valley Boulevard and on Walnut Grove Avenue only if it is determined on previous task that drainage patters will have to be modified so the runoff discharges into the raised medians and where new raised medians are being proposed. In addition, depending upon the pavement rehabilitation method, proposed profiles may be generated. If treatment method is slurry seal or grind and overlay, then no new profiles will be generated unless overlay is requested to a greater thickness than what was ground off. For pavement rehabilitation of remove and replace, proposed profiles will be generated. It is assumed that no new raised medians will be proposed on Walnut Grove, and all pavement rehabilitation will be between existing curb and gutter with joining of pavement at the edge of gutter. It is understood there may be sections of curb and gutter, cross -gutter, and sidewalk that require removal and replacement. These locations will be depicted in plan and appropriate profiles will be generated. Joining of the existing ground surface at back of walk is anticipated for all sidewalk rehabilitation. Minor grading may occur to provide clean and smooth transition from back -of -walk to right-of-way. It is not anticipated that any road widening will be part of this Project. Colored concrete cross walks at major intersections will be remove and replaced as required. QA/QC will be performed on the plans at each submittal stage. Per previously approved design for reconstruction of the ADA ramps, ERSC will complete the details created with clearance and ramp dimensions and slopes, in addition to spot elevations. Sheets containing cross -sections at 25- or 50-foot intervals shall be generated for use in design and City review but will only be incorporated into the project plans if requested. Deliverables: • 60%, 90% and 100% Progress Plans — 24" x 36" (Arch D) digital files • Final Plan - 24" x 36" (Arch D) digital files (bond or mylar available upon request) • ADA ramps details scale 1"=10' Task F.2 — Signing and Striping Plans ERSC will prepare the signing and striping plans at a scale of 1" = 20' or 40'. The plans will include full geometry of Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard. The plans will show existing signing, striping, pavement, and curb markings, required removals, required signs to be protected in place, and proposed improvements. It is assumed all existing pavement markings will need to be replaced due to full pavement rehabilitation. If streets are only to be slurry sealed, existing markings will be removed by sandblasting or other City -approved method. We are prepared for the possibility of changing the striping layout through these corridors by adding bike facilities, and our team is experienced at making sure new layouts align appropriately with existing conditions at project limits. Plans will identify the location and type of all existing/proposed signs by CA-MUTCD sign code and will include provisions to remove and replace existing signs with new and improved signs to meet the latest retro-reflectivity requirements as needed. Deliverables: • 60%, 90% and 100% Progress Plans — 24" x 36" (Arch D) digital files • Final Plan - 24" x 36" (Arch D) digital files (bond or mylar available upon request) Task F.3 — Overhead Flashing Beacon - Traffic Plans ERSC will prepare the overhead flashing beacon plans at a scale of 1" = 20' or 40'. The plans will include full layout of the electrical systems (hardwired or solar powered), all appropriate signage and striping associated with the beacons, and details on structural items like poles and mast arms. Consistent with the City RFP Q&A, the design will incorporate an opticom emergency vehicle preemption system, or approved equal, and we will coordinate closely with the City and the fire department to confirm equipment selection, placement, and integration details. Our team is experienced in delivering all components of this design in compliance with the CA- MUTCD. If the system is decided to be hardwired, our team will review any existing metered electrical connections in the area and analyze the feasibility of tying into an existing system. If a new metered connection is required, our team is well -versed in coordinating new metered connections with Southern California Edison. ERSC also has experience with standalone, solar -powered systems and can design such a system if the City chooses that option. When reviewing the subject location, our team noted nearby traffic signal systems and the potential to have this proposed beacon system communicate with nearby controllers, significantly enhancing the safety and efficiency of emergency deployments from this facility. Our team can design a system that tracks which direction an emergency vehicle is headed while leaving the station on an emergency call and communicate that to upstream traffic signals so they can provide emergency preemption. This potential will depend on the existing traffic signal systems in place along this corridor. Deliverables: • 60%, 90% and 100% Progress Plans — 24" x 36" (Arch D) digital files • Final Plan - 24" x 36" (Arch D) digital files (bond or mylar available upon request) Task FA —Storm Drainage Plans As observed during our field visit, existing catch basins are located within the project limits along Walnut Grove Avenue and Valley Boulevard that connect to the City's storm drain system. If it is determined in previous tasks that the proposed and existing raised medians will capture runoff generated by the project, the existing catch basins will need to be removed and relocated to new positions based on revised drainage patterns directing runoff toward the center of the street and raised medians. Therefore, as part of this task, ERSC will prepare storm drain plans at a scale of 1" = 20' or 40' for any catch basin removal, relocation, and lateral connections to the existing storm drain system as required. Alternatively, if BMP alternatives for treatment and water quality are implemented to maintain the existing crown street drainage pattern, ERSC will prepare street plans designed to preserve the existing catch basins in place. For catch basins requiring removal, relocation, or reconstruction due to street improvements, replacement basins will be provided in kind at the same size with associated laterals, unless otherwise requested by the City to address known flooding or other issues. If the construction of curb and gutter necessitates a new catch basin, ERSC will first seek to modify the street design to eliminate the need for one. If this is not feasible, a new basin will be proposed at a location where connection to an existing storm drain line is practical. Catch basin and pipe sizing will be performed, and calculations will be prepared in accordance with the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works Hydrology Manual and the Los Angeles County Flood Control District Hydraulics Manual, with results included in the Hydrology and Hydraulics Report submitted to the City. Deliverables: • 60%, 90% and 100% Progress Plans — 24" x 36" (Arch D) digital files • Final Plan - 24" x 36" (Arch D) digital files (bond or mylar available upon request) Task F.5 — Traffic Control Plans (Optional) As part of the RFP Q&A, the City of Rosemead states that Traffic Control Plans (TCP) will be prepared by the contractor and are not included in the scope for this project. However, the Caltrans encroachment permit requirements include the submittal of the street improvement plans, including traffic control plans, therefore ERSC will include this task as optional for the City. As part of this task, ERSC will prepare a Traffic Control Plans (TCP) to be used during the construction phase of the Project. The TCP will adhere to the CA-MUTCD, current version, and all other applicable State and local standards. The traffic control plans will be provided at the 90% and final submittals. The plans will provide for detailed traffic control directions when construction affects the on/off ramps. In addition, the TCP will need to be coordinated with Caltrans when pavement work is adjacent to the on/off ramps for the 1-10 freeway. Deliverables: • 60%, 90% and 100% Progress Plans — 24" x 36" (Arch D) digital files • Final Plan - 24" x 36" (Arch D) digital files (bond or mylar available upon request) Task F.6 — Cost Estimate ERSC will prepare an Engineer's Estimate with quantities and line items of improvements identified in the plans and specifications. ERSC has prepared numerous cost estimates for projects in the Southern California Region, including Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties. ERSC will pull from recent similar projects for cost data, as well as coordinate with the City to gather any recent bid analyses for cost data that can be utilized. Deliverables: • Engineer's Estimate at 60%, 90% and 100% Submittals (per the RFP). These submittal stages can be modified as needed. Task F.7 — Specifications ERSC will prepare the Technical Provisions of the Specifications, and the Bidding Schedule. The General Provisions of the Specifications are expected to be supplied by the City of Rosemead. As discussed in the RFP, specifications will be prepared as a modification to the City's boilerplate document and follow the Greenbook format they are prepared in. Deliverables: • 60%, 90%, and 100% Technical Provisions and Bid Schedule Submittals (per the RFP). TASK G — HYDROLOGY AND HYDRAULICS REPORT Prepare hydrology and hydraulics report to for the project based on the pre -development and post -development condition using the Rational Method in accordance with the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works Hydrology Manual, to calculate the peak flows and runoff volumes. The analysis will evaluate the 85th percentile 24-hour design storm, consistent with SUSMP requirements, and provide results that will be used for recommendations for appropriate Best Management Practices (BMPs) to meet hydrologic standards, including volumetric and flow -based treatment methods. The report will include water quality analysis consistent with the Standard Urban Stormwater Mitigation Plan (SUSMP), addressing the statutory Maximum Extent Practicable (MEP) standard to effectively prohibit non-stormwater discharges and reduce pollutants from stormwater conveyance systems. Additionally, if the proposed design requires the relocation or proposing new catch basins along the raised medians, the report will include catch basing sizing calculations and WSPG for the proposed lateral connecting to the existing storm drain system in accordance with Los Angeles County Flood Control District Hydraulics Manual. Deliverables: • 90% and 100% Hydrology and Hydraulics report TASK H — WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT CALCULATIONS As part of this task, ERSC will evaluate different BMP alternatives to capture and treat pollutants of concern, based on the results from the Hydrology Report analysis. ERSC will initially assess the use of the proposed and existing raised medians as bioretention or infiltration facilities. However, as previously noted, this may require modifications to existing drainage patterns and the removal and relocation of several catch basins currently located on the street sidewalks. Therefore, ERSC will also provide alternative solutions that do not impact the existing street drainage patterns, such as using the raised medians as landscape buffer zones to reduce impervious areas, catch basin inserts with screens, and wetlands where feasible. ERSC will present these alternatives to the City for review and approval. Once the preferred BMP alternative is selected, ERSC will proceed to size the BMP in accordance with the Los Angeles County Low Impact Development (LID) Manual and the Los Angeles County Standard Urban Stormwater Mitigation Plan (SUSMP). The results will be included in the Hydrology and Hydraulics Report, and a separate SUSMP report will only be prepared if required by the City. Deliverables: • SUSMP Calculations to be included in the Hydrology and Hydraulic Report • BMP sizing calculation TASK I — LANSDCAPE & IRRIGATION, AND CITY MONUMENTS DESIGN For the landscape, irrigation and City monuments design, ERSC has partnered with Community Works Design Group. As part of this scope of work, the Community Works Design Group team will directly address the landscape architecture components outlined in the City of Rosemead's RFP No. 2025-06, particularly within Section C, "Description of Project and Services," and Tasks 1 through 5. Project Initiation/Meetings & Coordination: Community Works will meet on -site with ERSC staff and City of Rosemead representatives to discuss the intended project outcomes, including ongoing maintenance, preferred irrigation components, planting selections, stormwater capture requirements, and City Entry Monuments. Community Works will collect soil samples for Agronomic Soil Testing in areas designated for stormwater capture and biotreatment, review any City -provided As-Builts, and coordinate with stakeholders on aesthetics and amenities along the corridors. In addition, Community Works will meet with the City's Maintenance team to review existing irrigation and possible connection points, while also participating in bi-weekly progress calls and required design review meetings at each project milestone (preliminary, 60%, 90%, and 100%). Finally, Community Works will attend at least three workshops and one City Council meeting to present design options for City Entry Monuments and proposed bicycle lanes in accordance with the RFP requirements. Conceptual Design: Community Works will review the schematic plans prepared by ERSC and develop preliminary landscape plans for the proposed raised center medians along Valley Boulevard and the existing medians along Walnut Grove Avenue. The design will focus on rehabilitating and enhancing these medians with low -maintenance, drought -tolerant, environmentally friendly, and aesthetically pleasing native and climate -appropriate landscapes. Community Works will also assist ERSC with developing preliminary designs for runoff and stormwater capture improvements, including rain gardens and planters, to provide biotreatment and reduce water discharge into the storm drain system for both Valley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue medians. In addition, Community Works will prepare and provide renderings of at least three distinct design options for City Entry Monuments at both City limits on Valley Boulevard for City Council review and selection. Finally, Community Works will plan for up to two revisions with the City of Rosemead for approval, coordinated through ERSC. Design Development and Construction Documents: Community Works, upon receiving the City's feedback on ERSC's Preliminary Design Submittal, will begin preparation of the Construction Documents (PS&E) for the landscape architecture scope, with submittals at the 60%, 90%, and 100% levels following subsequent City reviews. This will include detailed irrigation demolition and tie-in plans utilizing City -preferred equipment and existing points of connection where feasible, along with MWELO calculations if required. Community Works will also prepare soil preparation and planting plans prioritizing suitability, maintainability, drought resistance, and reliability, ensuring alignment with the City's native and climate -appropriate landscape preferences. For the selected City Entry Monument design, Community Works will provide detailed construction documents addressing materials, structural coordination, and lighting integration in collaboration with ERSC. In addition, final cost estimates forthe landscape architecture scope, including a 90-day maintenance period, will be prepared. Draft specifications will be developed and submitted with each progress set, utilizing the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction ("Greenbook") where applicable. Finally, all landscape architecture documents will be submitted to ERSC for City processing, with Community Works reviewing redlines, making necessary corrections, and contributing to the overall comment matrix. Deliverables: • Agronomic Soils Report • 60%, 90% and 100% Progress Plans — 24" x 36" (Arch D) digital files at 20 scale maximum • Final Cost Estimate for items related with Landscape to be integrated with the project Cost Estimate • Landscape architecture specifications Bidding Construction Support and Record Drawings: Community Works will respond to Requests for Information (RFIs) related to the landscape architecture scope during the project advertisement period and assist with the preparation of project addenda. The team will attend the pre -construction meeting, job walk, and up to five job -site meetings, as requested by the City, to provide input on landscape architecture elements. Community Works will also provide timely responses and approvals for the Contractor's submittals, including landscape materials and shop drawings, when requested by the City. In addition, Community Works will provide necessary input for the preparation of as -built drawings for its scope elements, based on field red -lined information furnished by the City's Construction Contractor. Deliverables: • As -Built Landscape Plans TASK J — PERMITTING AND REGULATIONS Caltrans Encroachment Permit ERSC will approach Caltrans for an encroachment permit for construction and traffic control within their right-of-way on freeway 1-10. In previous projects ERSC has worked on with Caltrans coordination, Caltrans has required highly detailed design for each pedestrian ramp and will have an extensive review process for traffic control and pavement improvement plans. Caltrans has also previously required a different pavement design in their right of way. ERSC will put forward an earnest effort to get a timely Caltrans permit review, but experience suggests there will likely be multiple iterations. Lessons learned from previous projects will be applied to streamline this process. Deliverables: • Caltrans Encroachment Permit TASK K - BIDDING SUPPORT ERSC will provide support to the City during the project bidding process, attend to the pre -construction meeting, job walk and job site meetings. ERSC will endeavor to create a set of construction documents that are clear enough for contractors to bid without question. However, should questions arise, ERSC will be available to answer those in a clear and time sensitive manner (within 3 working days). ERSC will rely on the City to collect and share requests for information from the prospective contractors. TASK L- CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT ERSC will provide coordination of the work for all the design disciplines. Process material submittals, request for clarification and substitution request. Provide construction observation as required to verify design intent, quality of workmanship and general progress of the work. Construction observation will be limited to a total of five site visits for Bidding and Construction Support tasks. TASK M -RECORD DRAWINGS (AS-BUILTS) When the project construction is completed, ERSC will revise the necessary construction plans to incorporate plan revisions resulting from construction changes. Within thirty (30) days following the completion and acceptance of the Project, ERSC will furnish a complete set of As-Builts on Bond paper to the City. Revisions will be solely based upon as -built information provided to the City and ERSC by the City's Construction Manager and the Contractor. Upon approval of Bond copy of plans by the City, ERSC will plot the As-Builts on Mylar for submittal to the City for their records. Deliverables: • Final "as -built" drawings reflecting construction changes EXCLUSIONS ERSC is submitting on the items identified in this scope of work. Items not explicitly stated in this scope are excluded from the scope of this proposal. In general, exclusions included, but are not limited to, property acquisition/negotiation, legal description preparation, plat/ tract map preparation, SWPPP, waterline/sewer line plans, utility relocations design different to storm drain laterals and catch basins, street lighting, signal modifications, other agency permits besides Caltrans encroachment permit, post -construction Caltrans ramp certification, water modeling, sewer modeling, structural engineering design and/or calculations, fiber optic design, communication line design, electrical design, identification or testing for potential hazardous materials and underlayment, data collection to support TI calculation, and anything else not directly related to the scope outlined above. 10 ���4 I Project Schedule u a 0 a` m c 'C N a a `m 0 0 m m > v m N - T a N t IL c aag iJ 3 `u K I� c a a 5 c \Q�y'1 amLL Ne0Ci �C NU N4 .

VALLEY BOULEVARD • Pavement rehabilitation and/or reconstruction; • ADA Compliance improvements, specifically curb ramp reconstruction for non -compliant locations; • Sidewalk, curb, curb and gutter and driveway repairs as needed; • Colored concrete crosswalks at major intersections; • New raised center medians with drought tolerant landscaping. Medians shall be constructed to capture runoff, prevent erosion and promote infiltration of stormwater runoff into the ground; • Entry monuments at the west and east ends of Valley; • Overhead flashing beacons at Fire Station 42 at 9319 Valley Boulevard; • Evaluate the feasibility of adding bike lanes along Valley Boulevard and implement, if feasible. In preparation of this proposal, KCG has completed a thorough review of the project site. Based on this review and our past experience on similar projects we have developed a project approach that is summarized in detail in our scope of work (Section 1.2) and is centered around the following key aspects: ❖ The Rehabilitation of both streets will likely require a combination of localized digouts of the severely distressed areas along with milling and overlay of the balance of the roadway area. These area treatments will be determined through a combination of visual inspection and a thorough geotechnical analysis. The dilemma for the design of street rehabilitation projects is whether profiles are needed or if plan view only design is sufficient. Due to the implementation of new medians on Valley Boulevard and the presence of existing medians on Walnut Grove, we feel that plan and profile drawings for both streets are needed to provide adequate vertical control for the contractor and eliminate potential issues in the field. As such, we will prepare the street plans at 40 scale with profiles depicting all vertical control that will be needed in the field. ❖ For ADA compliance these are 9 existing ramps on Walnut Grove and 15 existing ramps on Valley that are non -compliant. The charts below provides a summary of these ramp locations: Walnut Grove Access Ramp Summary Intersection = Corner # Ram s Walnut Grove @ SW NW NE SE Total San Gabriel 2 Landisview ✓ J 1 La Medrina 2 Dra er ✓ ✓ Walmart ✓ ✓ Rush J ✓ J J Edison WayJ J ✓ J Klin erman ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ Fern ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ Garve ✓ J ✓ J Doroth ✓ ✓ Hellman/Ramona 4 1-10 Rams ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ Marshall J ✓ ✓ J Total 9 Not Applicable (No corner) ✓ Existing Ramp is ADA-Compliant • ADA Ramp Reconstruction Req'd Valley Boulevard Access Ramp Summary Intersection Corner # Ramps Walnut Grove @ SW NW NE SE Total Charlotte 4 Delta ✓ ✓ 2 Walnut Grove ✓ J ✓ ✓ Gernert ✓ ✓ Bartlett ✓ ✓ Muscatel ✓ J ✓ ✓ Ivar ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ Rosemead 4 Hart ✓ J 1 Loma ✓ ✓ Mission ✓ ✓ Rio Hondo J ✓ ✓ J Intersection Corner # Ramps Valley SW NW NE SE Merwyn 2 Temple City J J 2 Brookline J J StrangJ J Total 15 Not Applicable (No corner) J Existing Ramp is ADA-Compliant ADA Ramp Reconstruction Req'd ❖ There are some unique design elements proposed for this project, namely entry monuments, new raised medians, bike lanes, overhead flashing beacons, and stormwater capture/treatment. In order to address these elements, KCG will prepare preliminary plans, sections and imagery which will be packaged into a preliminary plan package including construction cost estimates for City review, comment and subsequent approval. Our team will not proceed with Final PS&E until we receive City approval on the preliminary design. ❖ KCG has a lot of experience implementing raised medians in commercial corridors. These type of projects can be very tricky and challenging due to the critical nature of vehicular access to and from businesses and how it can affect a particular business. The first step to address this is to gather traffic counts for left turns in and out of all driveways and local streets. This data will allow us to optimize the median breaks to provide the best overall access solution for the corridor. It will also help City staff and design team to defend the proposed median layout when it is presented to the public and the City Council. ❖ The design phase for this project will be funded through local municipal funds while the construction phase will be funded though surface transportation Program — Local Funding (STP_L federal funding). As a result, the project will be subject to both CEQA and NEPA requirements. As such, it is our opinion that an Categorical Exclusion (CE) will be the appropriate CEQA clearance document and a Categorical Exemption will be the appropriate NEPA clearance for the project. Our scope or work for the environmental clearance of the project has been prepared accordingly. ❖ Quality Assurance is always the centerpiece of our project approach. KCG believes that quality assurance is rooted in the philosophy by which you conduct your business. It is true that quality can be monitored and controlled to some degree via checklists and independent reviews, but a true "quality" product comes from a firm's commitment to excel for their clients. Do they care about their product? KCG does. Do they have experienced staff overseeing or doing the work every step of the way? KCG will. Do they want the next job? KCG does. Are they staying out in front of the issues and "leading" the project? KCG will. Quality is a culture within a company... you either have it or you don't. The graphic on page 4 depicts KCG's QA/QC philosophy and approach which we apply to all of our projects. trong and Effective roject Manager KCG QA/QC Approach e Serve as the primary contact with Client and other agencies.

We will complete individual tasks/subtasks to successfully deliver the project. Each key task or subtask below begins with a brief overview or understanding including the general approach KCG will be taking to insure successful completion of that particular task. This narrative will serve to point out key elements and challenges of the work involved with a particular task and how we propose to address those challenges. Our understanding/approach is delineated in the gray shaded boxes under each task. Immediately below these boxes is the detailed scope of work which provides clear definition of the work which will be completed under that specific task or subtask. TASK 1.0 — PROJECT MANAGEMENT, ADMINISTRATION AND MEETINGS Overview / Approach: The ultimate success of a project depends on basically two main elements. One, technical execution of the design. For the most part, all of the proposing firms forthis project can display their credentials in this area or they would probably not be proposing. The second, and most important, element for success is effective project management. There is no doubt that all proposing firms will also tout their abilities to effectively "manage" a project. Unfortunately, many firms believe if they stay somewhat on schedule and submit their invoices on time they have been "effective" managers. We at KCG do not subscribe to this. Our core business philosophy is centered around effective management of all of our projects with the goal of making our clients job easier. The cornerstone goal of this philosophy is to "get out and stay out in front of the issues" on each and every project. We feel very strongly that our clients hire us for an assignment it is our obligation to bring it to a successful completion without having our hands held or being reliant on City staff to do our job for us. KCG will not allow this to take place on this or any project. The way we achieve this objective is by providing seasoned engineers that are also effective managers, not only because they understand the project process but because they understand the technical background of the design itself. We can anticipate issues faster than those managers who are reliant on younger design engineers to keep them informed. This disconnect cannot and will not happen at KCG because our Project Managers have hands on day to day involvement in the project design. Our Project Manager for the subject project will be Rick Kreuzer. Mr. Kreuzer is the President of KCG and has 40 years of experience managing and designing public works projects. Over the last decade, he has successfully delivered many projects that are very similar to the project at hand. Scope of Work: Under this task, KCG will perform all management related duties required for successful completion of the project, including the following subtasks: Subtask1.1—Kickoff Meeting: KCG will attend a project kickoff meeting. KCG will preparethe agenda and minutes the project meeting. Subtask 1.2 — Bi-weekly Conference Calls: KCG will attend virtual project status meeting every 2 weeks. We will prepare agendas and circulate 24 hours before each meeting and circulate meeting minutes within 24 hours after each meeting. Subtask 1.3 —Submittal Review Meetings: The KCG Team will attend submittal review meetings at the 60%, 90% and 100% submittal stages of the project. KCG will prepare a comment/resolution matrix as a follow-up to each meeting. Subtask 1.4 — Project Schedule and Updates: KCG will prepare a detailed baseline schedule at the beginning commencement of the project and will provide schedule updates on a monthly basis. Subtask 1.5 — Attend Workshops and City Meetings: The KCG team will attend up to 3 project workshops and 1 City Council meeting to present various design elements to the public and council. We will prepare all graphic material and/or powerpoint presentations needed for each meeting. Subtask 1.6 — Quality Assurance: As outlined in Section 1.1 of this proposal, KCG will implement our QA/QC approach to insure the project exceeds standards. TASK 2.0 — PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING Overview / Approach: The overall objective of this task is to flush out all of the design details prior to commencing with final construction drawings. This will include design development for project elements including, but not limited to, bike lanes, entry monuments, raised medians, stormwater capture and treatment, overhead flashing beacon signal and new and/or retrofitted landscaping and irrigation. This task will culminate with a preliminary plan package which will be submitted for City review and approval. Scope of Work: For Task 2.0 the following subtasks will be completed: Subtask 2.1 — Environmental Review: Based upon the project funding identified for construction we believe the appropriate documentation will be a Categorical Exemption (CE) for CEQA and a Categorical Exclusion (CE) for NEPA. This subtasks will require the following work efforts by our environmental subconsultant Helix: ❖ Environmental Project Management - HELIX will provide general environmental project management services associated with this scope of work. Management tasks will consist of formal and informal communication with the project team. Communications typically include telephone conversations and email. Other management responsibilities will include tracking budgets, providing input on the project schedule, reviewing schedule progress, coordinating with environmental technical specialists, and invoicing. Quality assurance reviews of major deliverables will be completed by senior staff prior to submittal. This task includes the equivalent of four hours per month of the HELIX Project Manager's time for environmental project management over a duration of six months, as well as a total of up to six hours of HELIX's Principal Planner time. ❖ Meetings - HELIX's Project Manager will attend up to four meetings, including one kick-off meeting and three additional project meetings. HELIX's Principal Planner will also attend the kick-off meeting. Meetings are assumed to be virtual and one hour in duration. Preparation of presentations and meeting graphics for meetings and attendance at community workshops and public hearings are not included. NEPA Documentation Support - HELIX will prepare a draft Preliminary Environmental Study (PES) Form addressing the preferred alternative. The purpose of the PES Form is to provide the early coordination needed for Caltrans Division of Local Assistance (DLA) to determine the required technical studies, level of analysis, and NEPA Class of Action (Categorical Exclusion [CE], Environmental Assessment [EA], or Environmental Impact Statement [EIS]). HELIX will provide an electronic copy of a draft PES Form for City review. Upon revisions, City will submit the draft PES Form to Caltrans DLA. If requested by Caltrans DLA, City will schedule a field meeting at the project site to discuss the project, relevant environmental issues, and the draft PES Form. HELIX, City, and Caltrans DLA staff (as well as other appropriate project team members) will attend the field meeting. Following Caltrans DLA review, HELIX will revise the draft PES Form, as required, and submit the final PES Form to City for signatures and submittal to Caltrans DLA. The PES Form will identify the appropriate NEPA document for the project, as well as any technical studies required in support of this documentation. It is assumed that the PES Form will conclude that the project will qualify for a "Categorical Exclusion without required technical studies" based on 23 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 771.117(c)(3) (construction of bicycle and pedestrian lanes, paths, and facilities) and 23 CFR 771.117(c)(7) (landscaping). It is anticipated that !.1 no technical studies will be required by Caltrans DLA to support the NEPA Categorical Exclusion given the project type, improvements located entirely within the road rights -of -way, minimal ground -disturbance, and environmental setting. Caltrans DLA will prepare and process the Categorical Exclusion form after the City completes the CEQA process. ❖ Environmental Technical Analysis and Reports - Environmental technical analysis for the project would be required to support the CEQA compliance document and is anticipated to be limited to cultural resources. Cultural Resources Assessment and Screened Undertaking Review: It is assumed that the PES Form will determine that the project will be a "screened undertaking" based on specific classes of screened undertakings listed in Attachment 2 of the FHWA/Caltrans 2024 Section 106 Programmatic Agreement (PA), and that preparation of cultural resources technical reports will not be required to support the NEPA Categorical Exclusion. HELIX will complete a cultural resources assessment forthe proposed project in support of the CEQA document that will include the following: obtain and review the records search data at the South Central Coastal Information Center; conduct a review of historic aerial photographs; contact the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) to request a search of their Sacred Lands File to assist in the identification of any additional Native American resources that may not be included in the records search; if requested by the City and Caltrans, conduct outreach to the list of tribal representatives provided by the NAHC and local historical societies, or other potential consulting parties who may have concerns; and conduct a site visit to confirm conditions. It is assumed that presence of a Native American monitor will not be required during the site visit. HELIX will prepare a cultural resources letter report describing the results of the assessment and recommendations to support the CEQA Categorical Exemption and Caltrans' screening process, per Attachment 2 of the 2024 Section 106 PA. The letter report will be revised once following City review and provided in an electronic format. •:• CEQA Notice of Exemption - The technical analysis conducted above will be, in part, the basis for the City to determine the appropriate level of CEQA compliance documentation for the project. For the purposes of this proposal, it is assumed that a Categorical Exemption would be determined to be appropriate. HELIX will prepare documentation in support of a CEQA Categorical Exemption for the project. The exemption will provide information to support the conclusion that the project qualifies for a Class 1 CEQA Categorical Exemption, Existing Facilities, pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines. Class 1 consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. One specific example of this exemption includes "Existing highways and streets, sidewalks, gutters, bicycle and pedestrian trails, and similar facilities (this includes road grading for the purpose of public safety), and other alterations such as the addition of bicycle facilities, including but not limited to bicycle parking, bicycle -share facilities and bicycle lanes, transit improvements such as bus lanes, pedestrian crossings, street trees, and other similar alterations that do not create additional automobile lanes." HELIX will prepare a NOE form with a brief summary document. For cost -estimating purposes, it is assumed that the summary document in support of the exemption will be no more than five text pages and include no more than three graphics, and that the document will be revised one time in response to City comments. HELIX will provide the City with electronic copies of the draft NOE in Microsoft Word and PDF formats for review and comment. As applicable, HELIX will provide the City with a revised electronic copy for final review. This scope assumes that the City will be responsible for electronically submitting the required documents to the State Clearinghouse, filing the NOE at the County Clerk (along with payment of applicable fees), and conducting all required coordination with other entities. 7 Subtask 2.2 — Obtain Record Information: This subtask involves collecting project record information for the project. This information will include, but not necessarily be limited to, the following: ■ Assessors Parcel Maps ✓ ■ As -Built Plans ■ Utility record plans (subtask 2.3) ■ Right of Way Record Maps ✓ ■ Centerline intersection ties ■ Benchmark information ✓ ■ Google Earth Images ✓ The items with a ✓above denotes information already obtained and reviewed by the KCG Team. Subtask2.3 —Utility Research and Coordination: Utility coordination will be ongoing throughout the duration of this project and will consist of the following tasks: Obtain plans showing location and size of all utility lines and appurtenances within the project area. Plot utility lines on Base Map (Subtask 2.5). L, Cross check plotted locations above with field review information to insure that existing lines are shown in the proper location. Upon finalizing the proposed improvements, determine where potential utility conflicts exist and where utility modifications are warranted. Coordinate with affected utility companies regarding conflicts, relocations and improvements. Plans will be submitted for comment to each utility agency concurrent with all KCG submittals to the City for plan check. Subtask 2.4 — Topographic Field Survey: The KCG survey crew will perform a topographic survey for the project. The topographic survey will collect all topographic site features, surface utilities, access ramps and driveways. A combination of Trimble R8-4 GPS and Trimble S6 Robotic total station equipment will be used to collect cross sections at 50' intervals. In addition, detailed topographic survey and elevations will be required at all non- compliant access ramp locations along both streets. As summarized Section 1.0 of this proposal, there are a total of 24 ramps that will require reconstruction to meet ADA requirements. All survey will be tied horizontally to the California State Plan coordinate system NAD83 (2017.50 Epoch). Vertically, the survey will be tied to NAVD 88 (1995 Adjustment) based upon observed Los Angeles County Public Works benchmarks. The topographic survey will be delivered in AutoCAD 2018 Civil 3D format with contours generated at 1-foot intervals. Subtask 2.5 — Base Mapping: Utilizing information obtained under subtasks 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4, KCG will develop project base maps at a scale of 1"=40'. All project features and utility lines and appurtenance will be depicted along with all street right of way and property lines. Subtask 2.6 — Field Reviews: Conducting thorough field reviews on this project will be key. KCG believes very strongly in walking our projects in the field throughout the base mapping and design stages of a project to insure all design issues are considered. This task will be particularly important due to the variety of conditions which exist along both streets. During these field reviews, locations of curb, gutter, sidewalk and driveways requiring reconstruction will be documented. Subtask 2.7— Geotechnical Report: Under this task, Harrington Geotechnical will complete the following efforts: • Mark the proposed core locations; • Notify Dig Alert; • Obtain a City of Rosemead Public Right of Way Encroachment Permit (if required at no fee); • Provide traffic control as necessary; • Remove small cores from the pavement at a total of 68 cores, 30 on Valley Boulevard and 38 on Walnut Grove Avenue per the RFP. • Conduct Infiltration testing and analysis at 8 locations. • Identify the various pavement layers; • Measure the thicknesses of the pavement and aggregate base at each location (if present); • Identify each core for the presence of pavement reinforcing fabric; • Sample the subgrade to determine in place moisture and density to a depth of one foot below the structural section; • Backfill the holes with soil cuttings and patch the pavement surface with cold mix asphalt; • Complete lab testing of the subgrade for 11 of the cores taken, 5 on Valley and 6 on Walnut Grove. Testing will include in -place moisture and density, expansion, index, Atterdburg limit, sieve analysis (#200 wash), compaction (optimum moisture and dry density), Hydrometer and grain size analysis, and HVEEM stabilometer tests to determine r-values. • Evaluate the information and prepare a report on the findings, conclusions and recommendations for pavement restoration. Subtask 2.8 — Hydrolopy/Hydraulic Report: A Hydrology and Hydraulic Report will be completed to quantify the storm runoff conditions for the pre and post construction drainage conditions. The report will identify any needed storm drain improvements and will service to justify the proposed biofiltration in the center medians based upon infiltration valves determined under subtask 2.7 above. Subtask 2.9 — Bike Lane Feasibility Study: Under this task, KCG will evaluate the feasibility of implementing bike lanes on Valley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue. This feasibility analysis will result in a Alignment Plan for each street depicting the layout of the bike lane with travel lanes and bike lane dimensions. We will pay special attention to the impacts on existing on -street parking which is present on both streets. Subtask 2.10 — Entry Monument Design Development: Under this subtask, Clark and Green will develop up to 3 alternatives for Entry Monuments on Valley Boulevard. This will include location layout, sections and perspectives to present to City Staff, the public and City Council for the selection of a Preferred Alternative. Subtask 2.11 — Traffic Counts: Under this task, KCG will utilize the services of AIMTD to conduct traffic counts on Valley Boulevard to provide the data necessary to set the new median alignment and optimize left turn access. The following counts will be obtained: — Driveways and Local Streets o Left turns in and out between 6:30 Am — 8:30 AM, 11 AM —1 PM and 4:00 PM — 6:00 PM midweek. o Left turns in and out between 11 AM —1PM on a Saturday. — Signalized Intersections (9 locations) o Directional counts on all four legs for the AM peak (6:30 AM — 8:30 AM) and PM peak (4:00 PM — 6:00 PM) midweek o Pedestrian and bike volumes at all locations 01 Subtask2.12— Traffic Analysis: UtiIizingthe data gathered under subtask 2.11, KCG will complete at raffic analysis which will form the basis for the development of the new median alignment along Valley Boulevard. Pocket lengths will be set based upon peak turning movements with consideration of added volumes for new U-turns required due to restriction for continuous left turn access. This analysis will be presented on a strip map of Valley Boulevard depicting projected volumes, pocket lengths, and added U-turn volumes. Level of Service (LOS) calculations will be computed for all signalized intersections. Subtask 2.13 — Valley Boulevard Median Design: KCG will prepare a layout for new raised medians along Valley Boulevard. This effort will also include sections and details for stormwater capture and treatment in the new median area as well as a conceptual plan for proposed median planting. Subtask 2.14 — Walnut Grove Median Design: KCG will prepare sections and details for modifications and/or stormwater capture and treatment. This will include a layout and sections for any changes needed to the existing planting in the medians. Subtask 2.15 — Valley Boulevard WQMP: KCG will prepare a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) for the required construction BMP's needed on Valley Boulevard including all stormwater capture. This plan will be proposed in conformance with City standards and formatting and content requirements. Subtask2.16— WalnutGrove WQMP: KCG will also prepare a WQMP forthe construction BMP's on Walnut Grove Avenue. Subtask 2.17 — Overhead Flashing Beacon Design: Our signal subconsultant, Hartzog & Crabill will prepare preliminary design drawings for the proposed overhead flashing beacon sign at the Fire Station located at 9319 Valley Boulevard. Subtask 2.18 — Preliminary Plan Package: KCG will complie all of the design development drawings described above into a Preliminary Plan Package for City review and approval. KCG will not proceed with preparation of Final PS&E until City approval of this package. Subtask 2.19 — Preliminary Construction Cost Estimate: As part of the preliminary package submittal, KCG will provide construction cost estimate for City review. Subtask 2.20 — Potholing (Optional Task): In conformance with the RFP, KCG will utilize the services of Bess Testlabs to conduct potholing at up to 12 locations. This subtask is optional and will not be conducted without prior approval of the City.

Together, these efforts will deliver critical infrastructure upgrades along two of the City’s most heavily traveled arterial corridors: •®ÍīIJŪť @ŘĺŽô AŽôIJŪô – from Marshall Street to San Gabriel Boulevard •«Íīīôƅ ĺŪīôŽÍŘî – from Charlotte Avenue to Eaton Wash ϼWest City Limit to East City LimitϽ EƄĖŜťĖIJČ CĺIJîĖťĖĺIJŜ botable destinations along the corridor include Gold World Plaza, Empire Commercial Center, Rosemead City Hall, the Savannah Cemetery, and the corporate headquarters of The Gill Corporation International. The roadway cross section is generally consistent throughout the corridor, and includes two travel lanes in each direction with on-street parking and sidewalks on both sides. The opposing directions of travel are separated by a striped two-way left-turn median lane. «Íīīôƅ ĺŪīôŽÍŘî is classified as a major arterial roadway that traverses the City of Rosemead from west to east, with project limits extending from the west City limit at Charlotte Avenue ϼbordering San GabrielϽ to the east City limit at Eaton Wash ϼbordering El MonteϽ. This corridor serves as Rosemead’s primary business district, supporting a wide range of commercial activity and providing direct access to numerous retail, dining, and service establishments. ®ÍīIJŪť @ŘĺŽô AŽôIJŪô is classified as a minor/major arterial roadway running north–south through the City, with project limits extending from Marshall Avenue at the north end to San Gabriel Boulevard at the south end. This corridor serves numerous residential neighborhoods and apartment complexes and provides direct access to both the I-10 and SR-͕0 freeways. botable destinations along the segment include Willard Elementary School, the Rosemead Education Center, Southern California Edison Headquarters, Whittier barrows Golf Course, and Walmart. The roadway section consists of two travel lanes with sidewalks along both sides for the entire segment. Separation between opposing traffic varies, including simple centerline striping, striped medians, and raised landscaped medians. Several segments also include curbside parking areas. These corridors are essential to Rosemead’s transportation network, functioning as primary commuter routes, commercial spines, and gateways to the community. Both roadway segments provide connections to regional routes such as I-10 and SR-͕0, and serve a mix of residential, commercial, and institutional land uses. The planned improvements will address pavement rehabilitation, accessibility, multimodal connectivity, and corridor aestheticsϴsupporting the City’s vision for safe, sustainable, and visually distinctive roadways. PŘĺĤôèť IıŕŘĺŽôıôIJťŜ RKA assumes the project will include the following improvements: •Design & implement pavement rehabilitation & maintenance along both corridors •Evaluate and design replacement of non-compliant ADA curb ramps along both corridors •Evaluate and design replacement of damaged concrete Ʋatwork, including sidewalk, curb, curb & gutter, and gutters along both corridors •Design and installation of Colored Concrete Crosswalks at major intersections along both corridors •Evaluation and Design of bew On-Street Bicycle Facilities along both corridors •Design and Installation of bew Raised Medians with Stormwater Capture Capabilities along «alley Boulevard only •Design and Installation of Stormwater Capture Facilities within Existing Medians along Walnut Grove Avenue only •Design and Installation of City Entry Monuments at Three total locations along «alley Boulevard ϼwest and east City limits plus one additional locationϽ •Design and Installation of Overhead Flashing Beacon for LA County Fire Station ͓͑ on «alley Boulevard The overarching goal of this project is to develop a complete, coordinated, and constructible Plans, Specifications, and Estimate ϼPS&EϽ package that has been reviewed and approved by all required regulatory agencies. This PS&E will be fully ready for bidding, enabling the City to move seamlessly into the construction phase using STP-L federal funding. By combining technical excellence and a strong understanding of constructability,we will deliver a design package that supports the City’s vision while minimizing construction impacts and maximizing long-term value. PŘĺĤôèť AŕŕŘĺÍèē RKA’s approach to the Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase ͑ and «alley Boulevard Resurfacing projects is built around the understanding that successful project delivery requires more than simply meeting technical requirementsϴit demands careful planning, clear communication, and strategic design decisions that anticipate construction needs and community priorities. The following highlight’s our approach to the èŘĖťĖèÍī ôīôıôIJťŜ of the project that will be essential to achieving the City’s objectives. Bike Facility Design The City’s ͑010 General Plan and ͑01͑ Bicycle Transportation Plan identify both «alley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue as priority bicycle corridors, recognizing their strategic role in connecting neighborhoods, commercial districts, and community facilities. To support this vision, our team will conduct a feasibility assessment to determine the most appropriate bicycle facility type for each corridor. This assessment will be guided by the Caltrans Highway Design Manual, the bACTO ˜rban Bikeway Design Guide, and current safety and design research. CO9ER /ETTER 2 APPROACF, SCOPE O> ®ORK Э SCFEDULE As part of our proposal effort, RKA has already performed a preliminary feasibility assessment by evaluating the existing cross sections along both corridors. For both segments, it is assumed that existing curb-to-curb widths and on-street parking will be maintained: «Íīīôƅ īŽî ϼTypical cross section throughout project limitsϽ 3 ®ÍīIJŪť @ŘĺŽô AŽô ϼThree distinct typical sections throughout project limitsϽ APPROACF, SCOPE O> ®ORK Э SCFEDULE 4 The assessment indicates that at a minimum, Class II bike lanes are feasible along both «alley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue, with opportunities for Class II buffered lanes or Class I« separated bikeways along Sections A and B of Walnut Grove Avenue. It is important to note that these facilities would require the use of narrower-than-standard travel lanes for arterial roadways. RKA will work collaboratively with the City to refine these concepts, evaluate trade-offs between mobility, safety, and community priorities, and determine the preferred bicycle facility type to advance into final design. Raised Medians and Stormwater Capture Design The introduction of raised landscaped medians along «alley Boulevard and the enhancement of existing medians along Walnut Grove Avenue present an opportunity to address multiple City objectives within a single design elementϴtraffic safety, corridor aesthetics, and stormwater quality improvement. From a traffic operations standpoint, raised medians will replace the existing two-way left-turn lane along «alley Boulevard, reducing mid-block conƲicts and calming traffic. From an aesthetic perspective, the landscaped medians will serve as prominent visual elements along two of Rosemead’s most significant corridors, creating visually distinctive, climate-appropriate, and low-maintenance landscapes that reinforce the City’s identity. Our approach integrates functionality, sustainability, and aesthetics to deliver durable, high-impact public realm improvements. •CīĖıÍťôϱAŕŕŘĺŕŘĖÍťô PīÍIJťĖIJČ – Median planting palettes will emphasize drought-tolerant, native, and regionally adapted species that provide seasonal color, texture, and ecological benefits while minimizing water use and long-term maintenance. •CĺēôŜĖŽô SťŘôôťŜèÍŕô DôŜĖČIJ – Planting, hardscape, and irrigation will be coordinated with City Entry Monuments and adjacent roadway improvements to ensure visual consistency and functional integration. Equally important, the medians will be designed as green infrastructure, capturing and treating roadway runoff through features such as bioretention areas, curb cuts, and rain gardens. These measures will comply with Los Angeles County stormwater standards, support the City’s MS͓ Permit compliance, and contribute to long-term water quality improvement. By combining traffic safety improvements, aesthetic enhancements, and stormwater management into a unified design, this element will transform the corridors into safer, greener, and more distinctive public spaces while advancing the City’s transportation, sustainability, and environmental stewardship goals. Pavement Rehabilitation Based on the RFP-reported Pavement Condition Index ϼPCIϽ rangesϴ«alley Blvd: ͕͓–80 and Walnut Grove Ave: 5͖–80ϴ both corridors are generally in Fair to Good condition. RKA’s performed a pre-proposal field walk and visually confirmed these conditions, with distress concentrated at intersection approaches, utility trench crossings, and isolated wheel-path areas. Therefore, our baseline treatment strategy is a mill and overlay with localized structural dig-outs, targeted to address base failures while preserving serviceable sections and minimizing disruption. APPROACF, SCOPE O> ®ORK Э SCFEDULE 5 In support of this assumption and to fully explore the pavement rehabilitation options, our geotechnical subconsultant ϼSladden EngineeringϽ will perform existing pavement coring and R-«alue testing as outlined in the Geotechnical & Pavement Evaluation task. The resulting geotechnical report will confirm overlay thickness, dig-out depths, and any locations where heavier rehabilitation ϼe.g., FDR/partial reconstructionϽ is warranted. City Entry Monument Signs The project will create City entry monuments that serve as iconic gateway features and integral components of the streetscape. Our Landscape Architect subconsultant, MIG brings experience designing entry monumentation for the Cities of Pico Rivera and Downey, will develop designs that reƲect Rosemead’s cultural diversity, civic pride, and unique identity. By embedding these design features into the physical infrastructure of the corridor, the entry monuments will function as both wayfinding elements and placemaking landmarks, supporting the City’s vision for a welcoming and unified public realm. APPROACF, SCOPE O> ®ORK Э SCFEDULE •DĖŜťĖIJèťĖŽô @ÍťôſÍƅ IîôIJťĖťƅ – Each monument will be designed to establish a strong sense of arrival, using forms, materials, and lighting that align with the City’s character while providing long-term durability and ease of maintenance. •IIJťôČŘÍťôî SťŘôôťŜèÍŕô EīôıôIJťŜ – Monuments will be coordinated with adjacent median landscaping, irrigation, and stormwater features to create a cohesive visual experience along «alley Boulevard. •SťĺŘƅťôīīĖIJČ TēŘĺŪČē DôŜĖČIJ – Opportunities for incorporating cultural motifs, community history, and artistic detailing will be explored to ensure the monuments are more than signageϴthey will serve as lasting symbols of community heritage and pride. CO9ER /ETTER 6 Caltrans Local Assistance While the design phase will be funded locally, the construction phase will utilize Surface Transportation Program – Local ϼSTP-LϽ funds, which require adherence to the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual ϼLAPMϽ. Building these requirements into the design process is essential to secure construction authorization and avoid delays. RKA will lead coordination with Caltrans District ͖ Local Assistance, serving as the City’s single point of contact and aligning submittals with the project schedule. We will guide the City from environmental clearance through the Request for Authorization ϼRFAϽ and E-͖͕ obligation, ensuring all prerequisites are in placeϴbEPA/CEQA clearance, right-of-way and utility certifications ϼanticipated within existing ROWϽ, and a PS&E package that conforms to federal-aid provisions. Our team includes Federal Funding Lead, Michael Lee, PE, QSD, who brings deep, hands-on experience with District ͖ processes and will navigate agency reviews, consolidate comments, and keep documentation complete and audit-ready so funds are obligated on time. Additional information on our Funding Support Services is located in Section 3- Company Qualifications. Project Constructability The RKA team possesses expert understanding of the construction processes that will be integral to delivering a project that can be built efficiently and with minimal disruption to each corridor’s businesses and institutions. «alley Boulevard, in particular, is a thriving commercial district with high volumes of customer, delivery, and transit activity, making business access and clear phasing considerations critical to the success of the project. Our design approach will incorporate constructability-focused strategies from the outset, including: •PēÍŜĖIJČϱAſÍŘô DôŜĖČIJ – Developing plans that accommodate logical construction sequencing to minimize lane closures and maintain two-way traffic where possible. •CīôÍŘ Э CĺIJŜťŘŪèťÍæīô CĺIJŜťŘŪèťĖĺIJ DĺèŪıôIJťŜ – Providing well-coordinated PS&E documents that reduce the likelihood of contractor uncertainty, change orders, and schedule impacts. •CĺĺŘîĖIJÍťĖĺIJ ſĖťē AîĤÍèôIJť PŘĺĤôèťŜ ÍIJî EŽôIJťŜ – Awareness of City event schedules, utility company work, and nearby construction to avoid cumulative disruptions to businesses and traffic Ʋow. •MÍťôŘĖÍīŜ Э CĺIJŜťŘŪèťĖĺIJ MôťēĺîŜ - Evaluate the use of materials and construction methods that can be installed more quickly while maintaining durability and performance, such as fast-setting concrete mixes, precast median components, and optimized pavement rehabilitation techniques to reduce the number of working days. By applying construction knowledge and material selection strategies during the design phase, we ensure the improvements can be delivered with the least possible impact to corridor operations, preserving the economic vitality of local businesses while achieving the City’s project goals.

Issued by: Department of Public Works, City of Rosemead Page 2 CITY OF ROSEMEAD REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS FOR ENGINEERING AND DESIGN SERVICES FOR THE PREPARATION OF PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS AND ESTIMATES FOR WALNUT GROVE AVENUE RESURFACING PHASE 2 AND VALLEY BLVD RESURFACING PROJECT A. INTRODUCTION/OBJECTIVE The purpose of this Request of Proposals (RFP) is to select the most-qualified Consultant to provide Engineering and Design Services for the Preparation of Plans, Specifications and Estimates for Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase 2 (Project #21030) and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project (Project #21031) RFP No. 2025- 06. The City seeks to obtain these services under a Professional Services Agreement. B. BACKGROUND ABOUT THE CITY The City of Rosemead is an urban suburb located in the San Gabriel Valley, 10 miles east of downtown Los Angeles. It is bounded on the north by the cities of Temple City and San Gabriel, on the west by Monterey Park, Alhambra, and the unincorporated Los Angeles County, on the south by Montebello, and by El Monte and South El Monte on the east. The City is 5.5 square miles (2,344-acres) in size. Rosemead is a working-class suburb with a diverse population base. According to the 2021 Census, the City had a population of 50,245. The estimated makeup of the City was 4.7% White, 0.3% African American, 60.3% Asian, 33% Hispanic/Latino (of any race), and 0.7% Non-Hispanic Other. As a substantially built-out city, Rosemead only added 259 residents to its population during the last decade (2000-2010). Rosemead's appeal as a new kind of small town in the heart of an urban environment is accomplished by honoring tradition, uniting in diversity, and evolving for the future. This is evident in Rosemead's Key Organizational Goals which aim to: improve public areas including infrastructure and community facilities; enhance public safety and the overall community environment and opportunities for residents through programs, services, education, and recreation; and ensure the City's financial stability in order to continually meet these goals and provide basic services to the community. Rosemead Boulevard, Walnut Grove Avenue, San Gabriel Boulevard, and Del Mar Avenue are the major north-south roadways within the City. All four major north-south roads provide connections to interstate 10. In addition, San Gabriel Boulevard connects to SR-60 within the southern area of the City. Valley Boulevard, Garvey Avenue, Graves Avenue, and Rush Street are the major east-west roadways within the City. Although these arterials often act as relief valves to the freeways during peak Page 3 commute periods, they also provide good alternative travel routes to destinations throughout the San Gabriel Valley. Currently, there is no raised center median on Valley Boulevard. (See Exhibit 1 on page 13 of this document for Roadway Classification Map). The existing bicycle route network within Rosemead, and the potential future bicycle network, is illustrated in the 2010 Rosemead General Plan Update (See Exhibit 2 on page 14 of this document for Existing Bicycle Routes and Potential Future Routes). As stated in the 2010 Rosemead General Plan Update “Circulation Element” and Bicycle Transportation Plan “Final Draft, April 24, 2012”, it is ideal to place bicycle lanes on low-volume roadways that traverse the City. Valley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue are both identified as a potential bicycle route in the 2010 Rosemead General Plan Update. No further study has been conducted to confirm that Valley Boulevard and Walnut Grove Avenue will be appropriate for the provision of bicycle facilities. See Exhibit 3 on page 1 for a view of project limits. The existing raised center medians along Walnut Grove Avenue between Valley Boulevard and San Gabriel Boulevard currently consist of medians with a mix of cobble stone and trees. These existing raised center medians were installed in 2015 and consisted of a mix of cobble stone, shrubs, flowers, mulch, and trees. There are no current raised center medians located along Valley Boulevard from west City limit to east City limit. C. DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT AND SERVICES The purpose of this Request of Proposals (RFP) is to select the most-qualified Consultant to provide Engineering and Design Services for the Preparation of Plans, Specifications and Estimates for Walnut Grove Avenue Resurfacing Phase 2 (Project #21030) and Valley Boulevard Resurfacing Project (Project #21031) RFP No. 2025- 06. The City seeks to obtain these services under a Professional Services Agreement. The proposed design services will be funded through local municipal funds. Surface Transportation Program - Local funding (STP-L federal funding) will be utilized for the construction phase of this project. Total funds available for construction phase and all soft costs (design, construction management & inspection, etc.) combined is $6.4m The project is located on the following street segments: • Walnut Grove Avenue, a Minor/Major Arterial roadway south of Marshall Street to San Gabriel Boulevard (Current Pavement Condition Index "PCI" ranging between 57 to 80) • Valley Boulevard, a Major Arterial roadway between Charlotte Avenue (west city limit) and Eaton Wash (east city limit) (Current PCI ranging between 64 to 80) The project general scope includes the following within the project area: Page 4 • Pavement rehabilitation and maintenance. • Pedestrian accessibility improvements (curb ramp reconstruction to bring all curb ramps to current ADA compliance). • Sidewalk, curb, curb and gutter repairs as needed. • Colored concrete crosswalk construction at major intersections. • Construct raised center medians along Valley Boulevard from west City limit to east City limit. Raised center medians shall include drought tolerant landscape and irrigation. • Design runoff and stormwater capture improvements for the proposed raised center medians along Valley Boulevard and for the existing raised center medians along Walnut Grove Avenue from Valley Boulevard to San Gabriel Boulevard. Raised center medians shall be designed to capture runoff, prevent erosion, biotreat, retain moisture in the soil, and provide new native climate appropriate landscapes. Design shall include water quality benefits such as treating runoff by installing rain garden and planters, thus eliminating water discharge into the storm drain system. • Construct City Entry Monuments in the proposed raised center medians at both ends (City limits) on Valley Boulevard. (Minimum of three Monuments) • Evaluate the feasibility of and implementation of bicycle facilities along Valley Boulevard and along Walnut Grove Avenue. • Signage and striping to include bicycle lanes once feasibility is determined. • Design of overhead flashing beacons for the LA County Fire Station 42 located at 9319 Valley Boulevard, Rosemead, CA 91770.

Consultant and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Consultant: 1. Consultant agrees to have its insurer endorse the third-party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 (or otherwise consistent with the insurer’s endorsement). Consultant also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise. 2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Consultant, or Consultant's employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Consultant agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise. 3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or applicable to this agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage. 4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing. 5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called "third party action over" claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor. Attachment A - Page 14 6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Consultant shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period} that may affect City's protection without City's prior written consent. 7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Consultant's general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Consultant or deducted from sums due Consultant, at City option. 8. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 days notice to City of any cancellation of coverage. A ten (10) day notice to City shall apply to nonpayment of premiums. Consultant agrees to require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, or that any party will "endeavor" (as opposed to being required) to comply with the requirements of the certificate. 9. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage (except Professional Liability and Workers’ Compensation) required to be provided by Consultant or any subcontractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary, noncontributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance available to City. 10. Consultant agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by Consultant, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Consultant. Consultant agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review. 11. Consultant agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance Attachment A - Page 15 of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self-insure its obligations to City. If Consultant's existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Consultant, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions. 12. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Consultant ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Consultant, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City. 13. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. 14. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Consultant of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard. 15. Consultant will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect. 16. Consultant shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from Consultant's insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five days of the expiration of the coverages. 17. The provisions of any workers' compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Consultant under this agreement. Consultant expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its employees, officials and agents. Attachment A - Page 16 18. Requirements of specific coverage features, or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue, and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all inclusive. 19. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such. 20. The requirements in this Section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Section. 21. Consultant agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Consultant for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this agreement.
