City Council Meeting Of .. ?a -a,9/3 MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL ACTION: AGENDA REPORT °C A 1 3— TO: Honorable City Council ' �"L'0�� FROM: David A. Bobardt, Community Development Director ` Joseph R. Vacca, Principal Planner DATE: March 18, 2013 (CC Special Meeting of 03/20/13) SUBJECT: Consider Amendment No. 5 to Professional Services Agreement with KOA Corporation for Traffic Engineering and Traffic Analysis Review Services Relating to Essex Apartments Traffic Analysis Update and Consider Resolution Amending Fiscal Year 2012/13 Operating and Capital Improvement Budget BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION Traffic engineering and traffic analysis review services for the City of Moorpark (City) are currently provided by KOA Corporation. Staff has determined that a traffic analysis update is needed for the Essex 200-unit apartment project, Residential Planned Development (RPD) Permit Application No. 2012-02. The project was originally approved in 2006 with a Mitigated Negative Declaration, using a traffic study prepared by Austin Foust and Associates in April 2005. Many of the assumptions in terms of traffic improvements and cumulative projects need to be updated. KOA Corporation has submitted a proposed scope of work, Exhibit A of Attachment 1, to update the 2005 traffic study. A deposit has been collected from the developer to cover the estimated $31,740.00 cost of the study, plus a 15% City administrative fee of$4,761.00, for a total of$36,501.00. FISCAL IMPACT All costs to provide traffic analysis services including the 15% City administration fee would be offset by developer deposits collected by the City. STAFF RECOMMENDATION (ROLL CALL VOTE) 1. Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 5 to the agreement with KOA Corporation, subject to final language approval of the City Manager. 2. Adopt Resolution No. 2013 - 1 Honorable City Council March 20, 2013 Page 2 Attachments: 1 — Proposed Amendment No. 5 to Agreement No 2008-191 (With Exhibit - A, Scope of work from KOA Corporation) 2 — Draft Resolution 2013 - \\DC1\Department Share\Community Development\ADMIN\AGMTS\Consultant\KOA\Amendment No.5 Essex RPD 2012-02\CC agnda rpn Amend No 5_130320.doc 2 AMENDMENT NO. 5 TO AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF MOORPARK AND KOA CORPORATION Original Agreement No.: 2008-191 Date of Original Agreement: July 28, 2009 Organization / Firm: KOA Corporation Amendment No.: 5 Effective Date of This Amendment: March 13, 2013 Subject of Amendment: Consulting services provided by KOA Corporation for Essex, (RPD No. 2012- 02), Traffic Study Update; [Adopted MND and Traffic Mitigation Reviewl.

CITY OF MOORPARK: KOA CORPORATION: Steven Kueny, City Manager Eugene Kao, P.E., V.P. of Los Angeles Operations, Principal Engineer Attest: Maureen Benson, City Clerk 4 EXHIBIT - A ESSEX APARTMENTS TRAFFIC ANALYSIS UPDATE SCOPE OF WORK PROJECT UNDERSTANDING A traffic impact analysis was conducted for the Essex Apartment project located on the south side of Casey Road west of Walnut Canyon Road in the City of Moorpark. The traffic study was prepared by Austin Foust and Associates in April 2005, and a Mitigated Negative Declaration was adopted by the City on July 18, 2007 for the original entitlement approval for a 200-unit apartment complex. However, the project has not been constructed. At this time,the applicant would like to move forward with construction of this project. There have been comments raised regarding whether the traffic mitigations that were recommended in the April 2005 traffic study are still adequate due to traffic counts from that study being eight years old. In addition, there are cumulative projects that are currently being planned or have been approved since 2005 that were not included in that traffic study. The City is requesting KOA to verify the recommended mitigation measures in the 2005 traffic study are still valid. SCOPE OF WORK KOA proposes to conduct a traffic impact analysis update of the April 2005 traffic study in order to identify if there are any impacts associated with the Essex Apartment project. The traffic study update will be based on new traffic counts and an updated cumulative projects list. We will analyze future "Project Opening Year" as well as year 2030 conditions,which will be consistent with other recent traffic impact studies conducted by KOA for the City. KOA has reviewed the traffic counts that are available from other recent traffic studies. These counts are from 2011 or before. The use of these older counts is not recommended. We propose to collect new counts at the study intersections in order to reflect 2013 traffic conditions. The traffic study update will be documented in a technical memorandum rather than in a full traffic study report. The study assumptions (e.g.future roadway improvements, ambient growth) will also be consistent with the Hitch Ranch Specific Plan, Civic Center and Pacific Communities traffic studies, where applicable. We will verify our study assumptions with City staff prior to conducting the traffic impact analysis update. Task I: Existing Conditions Current traffic conditions will be analyzed and documented for the 13 existing study intersections listed below. (The six remaining study intersections from the April 2005 traffic study are future intersections and would be analyzed under future conditions.) 5 Existing Intersections I. Walnut Canyon Road and Championship Drive 2. Walnut Canyon Road and Spring Road 3. Walnut Canyon Road and Casey Road 4. Moorpark Avenue and High Street 5. Moorpark Avenue and First Street/Poindexter Avenue. 6. Spring Road and High Street/Princeton Avenue 7. Tierra Rejada Road/Gabbert Road and Los Angeles Avenue 8. Moorpark Avenue and Los Angeles Avenue 9. Spring Road and Los Angeles Avenue 10. Science Drive/Miller Parkway and Los Angeles Avenue 11. Somis Road and Los Angeles Avenue (County) 12. Grimes Canyon Road and Los Angeles Avenue(County) 13. Walnut Canyon Road/Happy Camp Road and Broadway Road(County) The existing conditions analysis will include conducting manual traffic counts during the weekday morning (7 AM .to 9 AM) and afternoon (4 PM to 6 PM) peak periods. AM and PM peak hour level of service analysis will be conducted using the ICU methodology for the signalized intersections and the HCM methodology for the non- signalized intersections. KOA will identify those locations that are currently operating at unacceptable levels of service. Task 2: Future Base Conditions KOA will analyze traffic conditions at the study intersections for the following future scenarios: • Future"Opening Year"Without Project(short-term scenario) • Future Year 2030 Without Project,With Partial Extension of N. Hills Parkway(long-term scenario) • Future Year 2030 Without Project,With Full Extension of SR-1 18 and SR-23 (long-term scenario) Traffic conditions will be analyzed and documented for 19 study intersections (13 existing intersections listed in Task I and 6 future intersections listed below). Future Intersections 14. North Hills Parkway and Los Angeles Avenue 15. Gabbert Road and North Hills Parkway 16. A Street and North Hills Parkway 17. Spring Road and North Hills Parkway 18. A Street and Casey Road 19. A Street and High Street An ambient growth rate will be applied to the existing traffic counts to account for an increase in area-wide traffic. The ambient growth rate will be based on the VCTM traffic growth projections, which is consistent with 2 6 the Hitch Ranch Specific Plan traffic study. In addition, KOA will compile a current list of cumulative projects. Traffic growth from these cumulative projects will be assigned to the study roadway system. Future roadway improvements such as the extension of the SR-118 and SR-23 bypasses and other planned and/or funded improvements would be assumed for the future base scenarios, where applicable. The future roadway improvements that were assumed from the Hitch Ranch Specific Plan traffic study will be used. Any additional roadway improvements based on input from the City will also be included in the analysis. Traffic shifts due to the extension of the two bypasses will be reflected in the analysis. Task 3: Future With Project Conditions KOA will analyze project-related traffic impacts at the 19 study intersections for the following scenarios: • Existing Plus Project • Future"Opening Year"With Project(short-term scenario) • Future Year 2030 With Project,With Partial Extension of N. Hills Parkway(long-term scenario) • Future Year 2030 With Project,With Full Extension of SR-118 and SR-23 (long-term scenario) The following elements will be included: • Determine the number and the distribution of new trips generated by the proposed project, and assign them to the street system. The trip generation will be based on the ITE Trip Generation, 9w Edition. All trip generation assumptions will be reviewed and approved by City staff prior to the start of traffic analysis work. • Determine and map vehicle circulation on nearby streets in terms of site access for the proposed project. • Compare and analyze current and future peak hour volumes. • Determine the impacts from cumulative projects Utilizing the results of the future traffic forecasts and City's guidelines for determining significant impacts, KOA will identify those locations that are projected to be potentially impacted by the proposed project. The ' assessment includes trip generation and potential intersection/roadway impacts associated with the project. Task 4: Mitigation Measures In the event significant impacts are identified, KOA will work closely with City staff to develop feasible mitigation measures: We will review the recommended mitigation measures from the April 2005 traffic study and determine if those measures would be adequate to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels. Additional mitigation measures will be recommended, if required. The development of mitigation measures will also take into account the following: ■ Reprogramming exiting traffic signals ■ Reconfiguration of existing traffic controls 3 7 ■ Reconfiguration of intersections • Most workable vehicle access movement solutions ■ Internal and external vehicle queuing solutions Task 5: Documentation and Meetings KOA will prepare a draft traffic study memorandum incorporating data, analysis, and conclusions from all above tasks, and submit to the City for review. An electronic copy and four (4) hard copies of the draft study will be provided to the City. Based on comments received, KOA will revise the draft memorandum to produce the final traffic study version. The submittal includes an electronic copy and four(4) hard copies of the final traffic study. The scope and associated fee also includes up to three meetings with City staff to discuss the study assumptions and results. FEE ESTIMATE KOA will perform the work specified in the work scope above for the lump sum fee below. The fee does not include the cost of preparing design mitigation drawings, if required.
