AGENDA REPORT

TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Jeremy Laurentowski, Parks and Recreation Di ct
BY: Jessica Sandifer, Senior Management Analy
DATE: December 8, 2015 (CC Meeting of 12/16/2015)
SUBJECT: Consider Agreement with Phoenix Civil Engineering, Inc. for
Construction Management Services for the Retaining Wall Project at
Arroyo Vista Community Park and Resolution Amending the Fiscal
Year 2015/16 Budget
BACKGROUND
A retaining wall at Arroyo Vista Community Park (AVCP) is in need of replacement. The
retaining wall was installed at the top of the slope on the south side of the park, adjacent
to three homes at the end of the cul-de-sac on Honeyglen Court and Summerglen
Court. The original retaining wall was constructed with wood beams and galvanized
steel posts for support, and is approximately 5' in vertical height and 90' in length. Over
time, several wood beams have dislodged from the wall and there appears to be a
significant amount of outward deformation. The actual construction date of the retaining
wall is unknown, but staff suspects that it was constructed around the same time that
the homes were constructed in 1985. In December 2013, the City Council authorized a
geotechnical investigation of the retaining wall area. The investigation concluded that
the movement of the existing wall is due to a combination of factors, which include the
initial design and degradation of the existing wall, as well as the creep-type soil
movement of the fill soils above the wall. In September 2014, the City Council approved
funding to hire a civil engineer to design the retaining wall options recommended by the
geotechnical consultant. Staff contracted with Phoenix Civil Engineering (Phoenix) to
complete the construction drawings and specifications for the project. In November
2015, the City Council approved the project plans and specifications and authorized
staff to go out to bid on the project.
DISCUSSION
The project has not yet been released for bids. Staff is awaiting receipt of the signed
plans from the Acting City Engineer before advertising the project. In the meantime,
280
Honorable City Council
December 16, 2015
Page 2
staff has requested a proposal from Phoenix for Construction Management Services for
the project. Staff is recommending hiring a construction manager due to the size, type,
complexity, and location of the retaining wall and the fact that we have limited City staff
to provide daily project oversight and coordination. Phoenix's services will include
participation in the pre-construction meeting; review and response to submittals and
requests for Information (RFI); project coordination between the General Contractor, the
City, and affected homeowners; construction observation and provision and
coordination of materials testing as required by the plans and specifications; as well as,
completion of the as-built drawings.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Civil Engineer estimates that construction of the retaining wall, including removal
and replacement of the wrought iron property line fence, will cost approximately
$110,000. Staff will return to City Council when the bids are received to allocate funding
for the construction.
The cost for construction management and materials testing services is $33,396, which
includes the costs for a sub-consultant to provide material testing and a 10%
contingency of $3,306.
Funding was not included in the Fiscal Year 2015/16 budget for construction
management services. Staff recommends that General Fund transfers be made as soon
as the project cost is known. Therefore, staff is requesting an appropriation from the
General Fund (1000) reserve to complete this work.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION (ROLL CALL VOTE)
1. Approve Agreement with Phoenix Civil Engineering, Inc. in the amount of $33,396,
and authorize the City Manager to sign the Agreement, subject to final language
approval of the City Manager; and
2. Adopt Resolution No. 2015 - amending the FY 2015/16 budget to appropriate
$33,396.00 from the General Fund (1000) Reserve to fund this work.

Exhibit A
INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
Prior to the beginning of and throughout the duration of Work, Consultant will maintain
insurance in conformance with the requirements set forth below. Consultant will use
existing coverage to comply with these requirements. If that existing coverage does not
meet requirements set forth here, Consultant agrees to amend, supplement, or endorse
the existing coverage to do so. Consultant acknowledges that the insurance coverage
and policy limits set forth in this section constitute the minimum amount of coverage
required. Any insurance proceeds available to the City in excess of the limits and
coverage required in this Agreement and which is applicable to a given loss, will be
available to the City.
Consultant shall provide the following types and amounts of insurance:
Commercial General Liability Insurance using Insurance Services Office (ISO)
"Commercial General Liability" policy form CG 00 01 or the exact equivalent. Defense
costs must be paid in addition to limits. There shall be no cross liability exclusion for
claims or suits by one insured against another. Limits are subject to review but in no
event less than $1,000,000 per occurrence for all covered losses and no less than
$2,000,000 general aggregate.
Business Auto Coverage on ISO Business Auto Coverage form CA 00 01 including
symbol 1 (Any Auto) or the exact equivalent. Limits are subject to review, but in no
event to be less than $1,000,000 per accident. If Consultant owns no vehicles, this
requirement may be satisfied by a non-owned auto endorsement to the general liability
policy described above. If Consultant or Consultant's employees will use personal autos
in any way on this project, Consultant shall provide evidence of personal auto liability for
each such person.
Workers' Compensation on a state-approved policy form providing statutory benefits as
required by law with employer's liability limits no less than $1,000,000 per accident or
disease.
Professional Liability or Errors and Omissions Insurance as appropriate shall be written
on a policy form coverage specifically designed to protect against acts, error or
omissions of the Consultant and "Covered Professional Services" as designated in the
policy must specifically include work performed under this Agreement. The policy limit
shall be no less than $1,000,000 per claim and in the aggregate. The policy must "pay
on behalf of' the insured and must include a provision establishing the insurer's duty to
defend. The policy retroactive date shall be on or before the effective date of this
Agreement.
Excess or Umbrella Liability Insurance (Over Primary) if used to meet limit
requirements, shall provide coverage at least as broad as specified for the underlying
coverages. Coverage shall be provided on a "pay on behalf' basis, with defense costs
Phoenix Civil Engineering, Inc. Page 10 of 15 291
payable in addition to policy limits. Policy shall contain a provision obligating insurer at
the time insured's liability is determined, not requiring actual payment by the insured
first. There shall be no cross liability exclusion precluding coverage for claims or suits by
one insured against another. Coverage shall be applicable to the City for injury to
employees of Consultant, subconsultants, or others involved in the Work. The scope of
coverage provided is subject to approval by the City following receipt of proof of
insurance as required herein. Limits are subject to review.
Insurance procured pursuant to these requirements shall be written by insurers that are
admitted carriers in the State of California and with an A.M. Bests rating of A- or better
and a minimum financial size of VII.
General conditions pertaining to provision of insurance coverage by Consultant.
Consultant and the 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 the City, its officials,
employees, and agents, using standard ISO endorsement CG 2010 with an
edition prior to 2004. 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
to subrogation prior to a loss. Consultant agrees to waive subrogation rights
against the 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 operation limits the application of such insurance coverage.
4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these
requirements if they include limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been
first submitted to the City and approved 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.
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 the City's protection without the
City's prior written consent.
Phoenix Civil Engineering, Inc. Page 11 of 15 292
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 or
reduced at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, the 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 the City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Consultant
or deducted from sums due Consultant, at the City's option.
8. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide thirty (30) days notice to
the City of any cancellation or reduction of coverage. 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 or reduction
of coverage 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
required to be provided by Consultant or any subcontractor, is intended to apply
first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or
self-insurance available to the City.
10. Consultant agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved
with the Work who is brought onto or involved in the Work by Consultant, provide
the same minimum insurance required of Consultant. Consultant agrees to
monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring

Dear Mr. Laurentowski-
I am pleased to provide you with this proposal for construction management services associated with the
Arroyo Vista Park Retaining Wall project. The proposed improvements include removal of an existing
wooden retaining wall and installation of cast in drilled hole piles and reinforced concrete retaining wall,
drainage piping,and related work. We also included the services of Fugro Consultants,Inc.as a
subconsultant on this project. They will provide geotechnical oversight and materials testing of the
concrete and the soil subgrade on the project. Based on our conversations, I have prepared my proposal
to include the following:
Task 101: Preconstruction Meeting
Task 102: Submittal Review
Task 103: Response to Requests for Information
Task 104: Project Coordination/Construction Observation
Task 105: Record Drawings
I appreciate the opportunity to submit this proposal to assist you with this project. I have attached a scope
of work and our professional services rate sheet along with a fee schedule detailed by task. It is assumed
that the construction observation will not be full time.
Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to discuss my proposal.
S incerely;`-

Scope of Services
Background/Project Understanding
Arroyo Vista Park is located in the City of Moorpark. The City has an existing wooden and metal post
retaining wall on the southern end of the park near the tennis courts. The proposed improvements consist
of removing the existing retaining wall and installation of cast in drilled hole piles and reinforced concrete
retaining wall,drainage piping,and related work. This proposal covers construction management, part
time onsite observation and materials testing. Fugro Consultants, Inc. is included as a subconsultant on
this project.
Construction Services
As part of this task, the construction manager will provide construction management support to the City
for the project. The project specifications indicate that it will take 45 working days (approximately 2
months) to complete the project. The schedule is assumed to be as follows:
• Shop drawing review—Two weeks
• Improvement Installation—Six weeks
• Project final punchlist items—One week
For a total of approximately 9 weeks of construction. It is anticipated that construction management and
onsite observation will be provided on a part time basis(approximately 20 hours a week during active
construction activities and approximately 6 hours a week performing management activities. In order to
manage costs, it is assumed that during times of minimized construction activity, the onsite construction
observation will be handled by City staff.
The construction phase services include review of the project shop drawings. It is estimated that 6 project
shop drawing submittals will be provided by the Contractor. For purposes of this proposal it is assumed
that one initial review and one subsequent review will be conducted by the construction manager for
approval. The construction phase support will also include providing the City with project coordination
and communication between the contractor and City staff. The construction manager will be the primary
point of contact and all correspondence will be handled by Phoenix Civil Engineering. In addition, the
construction manager will conduct the weekly project progress meetings and prepare the project weekly
reports outlining the daily observations,photographs,potential construction changes, and schedule
updates. The City supplied construction observer when the construction manager is not onsite will also
be required to provide daily observation reports. The construction manager will also review the monthly
progress payment requests from the contractor and provide a recommendation packet to the City in an
agreed upon format. If necessary, the construction manager will review any project change order requests
from the contractor and provide a recommendation letter to the City. Lastly, the contractor prepared
construction red line markups of the design plans will be provided to the construction manager and the
changes wilt be incorporated into the design plans to create a set of project record drawings. The record
drawings will be provided to the City at the end of the construction. Once the contractor has been
selected, the project duration is anticipated to be 45 working days.
The following efforts arc included in this task:
• Task 101 Prepare for and conduct the project construction kick off meeting with the contractor and
City staff The meeting will be held at the City offices and/or the proposed construction site. A
summary of discussion topics and project deliverables will be provided to the City.

• Task 102 Review and coordinate the project shop drawing submittals. It is anticipated that 6
submittals will be reviewed. In preparing this proposal, it was estimated that two reviews of the
submittals will be conducted for approval.
• Task 103 Respond to contractor's requests for information (RFIs). It is anticipated that up to 3
requests for information will be prepared during the construction phase. The responses will originate
and be distributed from Phoenix Civil Engineering.
• Task 104 Provide project coordination between the selected contractor and the City as well as weekly
construction observations. Monitor and document the contractor's submitted project schedule. The
schedule will be reviewed at the weekly meetings. Submit weekly project update reports to the City.
The report will address the schedule, shop drawing status, construction progress, potential
issues/changes, upcoming activities, project photographs, and meeting summaries. Provide progress
payment review and recommendation for approval packages to the City. Prepare and provide
recommendation for approval of any project change orders to the City in the approved format. For
purposes of this proposal, it is anticipated that one change order package may be prepared. Provide
the City with a compilation of the daily construction observation reports on a weekly basis.
In addition, this task includes construction materials testing and reporting efforts from the
geotechnical subconsultant during the times when they are present. Their scope of work includes
periodic materials testing services and special inspection during critical phases of the project. The
anticipated material inspection/testing activities include: cast in drill hole (CIDH) installation, in
place density testing of construction materials, sampling and compressive strength testing of Portland
cement concrete materials, and laboratory testing of sampled materials. A summary report will be
provided of the project and laboratory testing.
• Task 105 Record drawing preparation at the completion of the construction phase based on the
redline markups provided by the contractor.
Deliverable: Two copies of all preliminary and final shop drawings that have been reviewed for
conformance will be provided to the City. Weekly project reports detailing the previous week's activities
(meeting summary,project schedule update,potential construction issues,daily observation reports,
coordination issues, photographs, etc.) will be provided. Any change order submittal will be reviewed
and discussed with the City. At the completion of the project construction phase a complete copy of all
construction related correspondence as well as the final record drawings will be provided to the City on
mylar for their files.
