RE: Relocation Consulting Services, Acquisition of three properties
Dear Mr. Moe:
Overland, Pacific & Cutler, Inc. (OPC) is pleased to submit this proposal to provide
relocation assistance services for up to three households and one business in the City
of Moorpark.
OPC has an understanding of the scope of work involved and the qualified personnel to
meet the requirements of the Project. Relocation Assistance Services will be in
accordance with State and Federal laws; specifically California Relocation Assistance
Law, California Government Code, Section 7260 et.spg: the California Code of
Regulations, Title 25, Chapter 6 and the Federal Uniform Relocation Assistance and
Real property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 along with the funding agency's
guidelines.
By way of introducing you to our firm, I would like to describe what OPC can bring to the
Moorpark Redevelopment Agency:
• A Project Management team with over two decades of public entity relocation
assistance experience;
• A permanent full- service office in Long Beach, with relocation professionals with
a history of providing services in communities throughout California;
000014

P. . ,
• A firm with long -term interests in Southern California and an immediately
available, in -place workforce;
a A fully computerized relocation case management system;
a A team - oriented approach with a history of successful working relationships;
e A multi- lingual staff.
Our firm's qualifications, work experience and cost proposal for completing this project
for you are detailed below.
A STATEMENT OF QUALIFICATIONS
Overland, Pacific & Cutler, Inc. (OPC) provides comprehensive relocation, acquisition
and property management services to public and private sector clients. Over the last 20
years, we have handled more than 30,000 residential, commercial and industrial cases.
Our corporate resume includes a wide variety of projects, which have ranged in size
from one to as many as 500 individual cases. Our clients include local, .regional and
federal public agencies, school districts and both for - profit and non -profit developers.
OPC provides service throughout northern, central and southern California from offices
in Oakland, Sacramento, Long Beach, Palm Desert and San Diego. Our Project
Managers, Relocation Specialists and administrative personnel are an ethnically and
linguistically diverse group of individuals who share a common ability to work effectively
with the public and adapt to the unique circumstances of projects to which they are
assigned. The tenure and general experience of our staff are key elements of the
success of our company.
OPC's field experience encompasses a varied assortment of projects and settings. We
have extensive experience, for example, in public and private mobile home park
closures, SRO residential rehabilitation projects and large -scale relocation efforts.
Since all of our work ultimately involves the public, we are keenly sensitive to the human
and political aspects of the work we undertake. We believe strongly in thorough
planning, budget analysis and, above all, communication with our clients.
We are a member organization of the California Redevelopment Association (CRA), the
National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials (NAHRO), the Coalition
for Adequate School Housing (CASH), California Contract Cities Association, the
International Right of Way Association (IRWA), and the Municipal Management
Assistants of Northern and Southern California (MMANC and MMASC). In 1998, we
were selected to serve on the California State Housing and Community Development
Department's Task Force to update the state relocation guidelines.
OPC staff has provided relocation assistance to not only the City of Moorpark, but
hundreds of cities, agencies and non -profit organizations throughout California.
References are available upon request.

C. SCOPE OF SERVICES -WORK PLAN
No. 9776 P, 4
Throughout the relocation process, the majority of direct inter -face between Overland,
Pacific & Cutler, Inc. and the Moorpark Redevelopment Agency, will be with our project
manager, Kent Jorgensen. Relocation Specialists dedicated to the Project will carry out
the actual relocation services described below. The assignment of a particular
Relocation Specialist will be based upon the needs of the occupants (e.g., for occupants
whose primary language is Spanish, a bilingual staff member will be assigned to the
Project).
Experience has proven that a very "hands -on" relocation process, involving extensive
communication with each occupant and with prospective landlords, is necessary. OPC
is also prepared to provide transportation to residential Project occupants to inspect
replacement- housing resources, if required. Some services may appear to increase
OPC's administrative costs; however a greater benefit is derived from cost savings in
last resort housing payments and more successful relocations.
The proposed scope of services for this Project is as follows:
Preparation of a Relocation Plan (as required by California State Relocation Law and
Guidelines)
• Personally interview all Project occupants to obtain required information, i.e.,
names, ages and gender of occupants, household composition and income,
special needs, etc.
• Conduct resource study to determine likelihood of availability of temporary and
permanent replacement housing and incorporate results into the Plan.
• Analyze survey results and incorporate data into a written Plan.
• Prepare a detailed description of the relocation advisory services program,
procedures for locating and referring eligible persons to comparable replacement
housing, a plan for any last resort housing which may be required, the relocation
payments to be made, a cost estimate for carrying out the plan, and identification
of the source of the necessary funds.
• Provide required number of draft and final Plans to the Redevelopment Agency
and others, as required for review and comment.
• Provide general notice of the availability of the Plan to Project occupants, and
others, as needed for comment.
• Incorporate comments, if any, and responses into final Plan.
• As needed, attend all required meetings (i.e., with tenants or the City and
County) associated with the preparation or adoption of the Plan.

Guidelines)

names, ages and gender of occupants, household composition and income,
special needs, etc.

such as provide transportation to view potential replacement sites, if requested.

Notices to Vacate, and other notices, as may be required.
• Provide written referrals to comparable replacement housing units.
• Determine eligibility for and proposed amount of relocation benefits for each
household being displaced.
• Inspect replacement dwellings to determine if they meet "decent, safe and
sanitary" requirements.
