Libiez, Principal Planner' BY- DATE: July 2, 1998 ( For City Council Meeting of July 15, 1998) SUBJECT: Authorization to Issue Request For Proposal (RFP) For Bypass Studies and Traffic Mitigation Fee Study DISCUSSION: On November 19, 1997, City Council considered the preliminary scope of work related to the traffic impact mitigation fee and improvement program. Since the Council's last review, the RFP has been modified to more clearly address various constraints and options and expanded to include precise alignment studies for which Public Works has qualified for a grant. Briefly, these changes are: ( a.) establishing three distinct phases to the study which would develop- 1) a preliminary/interim traffic mitigation fee program, 2) precise alignment studies /capital improvement program/environmental documentation, 3) final mitigation fee and financing strategy. Each phase is given an anticipated time frame for completion with milestone reports required as works progress. Anticipated completion of the full work program is targeted for 240 days from initiation of work. Since the project involves federal funds, consultants will need to meet Caltrans requirements for qualification. The RFP incorporates those requirements by reference. The project funding would come from two sources. Phase 1 could be funded from available revenues in the City -wide Traffic Mitigation Fund ( Fund 202). Phases 2 and 3 would be funded from a federal Congestion Management grant in the amount of $120.000.00, plus $30,000.00 in local match funds from the Los Angeles Ave. AOC account. The Ventura County Transportation Commission has approved the project, and it is listed in the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) as an eligible project. Public Works need only provide administrative materials to activate allocations. A copy of the RFP is attached for Council review. Attachment 2, to the RFP, the previous design and cost sheets prepared by Charles Abbott in 1995, were not attached to Council's copy due to their bulk. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Concur with revised Request For Proposal and authorize staff to issue the RFP. Attachment: Revised Request For Proposals To Develop A Citywide Traffic Mitigation Fee And Capital Improvement Plan Related To The Construction of Bypass Routes For SR 118 and SR 23 Within The City Of Moorpark UOOI55 REQUESTS FOR PROPOSALS TO DEVELOP A CITYWIDE TRAFFIC MITIGATION FEE AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN RELATED TO THE CONSTRUCTION OF BYPASS ROUTES FOR SR 118 AND SR 23 WITHIN THE CITY OF MOORPARK July 1998 PROPOSALS DUE: SEPTEMBER 1. 1998 At the Office of: Nelson Miller Director of Community Development City of Moorpark 799 Moorpark Avenue Moorpark, CA 93021 (805) 529 -6864, extension 242 c: \1 -m \contract \citywid2.rfp C;0CI Sc SCOPE OF WORK CITYWIDE TRAFFIC MITIGATION FEE AND BYPASS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM INTRODUCTION The City of Moorpark Departments of Engineering and Community Development invite proposals from civil engineering, traffic engineering and transportation planning firms qualified and experienced in the development of traffic mitigation fee programs, capital improvement planning, alignment studies, and environmental assessments. BACKGROUND DATA Moorpark incorporated as Ventura County's tenth city on July 1, 1983. Moorpark is 12.44 square miles in size and is located in the southeastern part of Ventura County, approximately 50 miles northwest of downtown Los Angeles.(See Attachment 1- Location Map) The population of Moorpark was estimated to be 29,324 and the total housing units were estimated to be 9096, as of January 1, 1998. Based on the density limit described in the City's General Plan Land Use Element, the number of dwelling units at General Plan buildout is estimated to be between 15, 170 and 16,523. SCOPE OF WORK The selected consultant will be required to complete the following tasks and provide the following services to the City: The requested services will be performed within three phases. Each task below is highlighted with the phase italicized in which it is expected to occur and with the level of detail expected for the task at each phase. Some overlap of phases is anticipated. It is expected that the following time sequence should apply to the phases identified. In each case, the time sequence is based on date post contract issuance. Phase 1. Draft Traffic Mitigation Fee Plan (Complete within 90 days) Phase 2. Precise Alignment Study /Capital Improvement Plan and related environmental studies and findings. (Complete within 180 days) Phase 3. Final Mitigation Fee Program and Financing Strategy. (Complete within 240 days.) Task 1: KICK -OFF MEETING: (Phase 1: General discussion /direction) Meet with City staff as necessary for data collection, coordination and project understanding. c: \1 -m \contract \citywide.rfp 2 000157 Task 2: DATA COLLECTION. ANALYSIS AND DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS A. REVIEW PREVIOUS CONCEPT PLANS /COSTS ESTIMATES (Phase 1: General level of detail sufficient to reflect 1998 costing or feasibility for project) 1.Review conceptual interchange and roadway designs and cost estimates prepared in 1994 (see Attachment 2) for the State Route (SR) 118 bypass arterial and SR 23 extension. 2.Update /revise preliminary design and estimates, as necessary, including developing more precise cost information and revising right -of -way estimates to take into consideration actual planned land use. B. PREPARE DESIGN AND COSTS ESTIMATES FOR SR 118 AND SR 23 BYPASSES (Phase 1: The estimated general cost to produce these roadways and related facilities needs documented) (Phase 2: Preparation of detailed preliminary design plans for each component and /or alternate is needed. This set of plans must be of sufficient quality and content to facilitate the City's ability to seek final design and bid data at a later date. ) (Phase 3: Precise costs and financing strategies are required.) Prepare cost estimates for individual bypass lengths, bridging or other facilities for Walnut Creek crossing, grade separation at U.P. Rail Road crossing, interchange at Spring Road extension, signalized "T° intersection at Los Angeles Ave westerly of Butter Creek Rd., and necessary alterations to drainage facilities to complete bypass along the suggested 3.3 mile SR 188 alignment provided by the City of Moorpark (see Attachment 3 for City Circulation Element exhibit). SR 118 future development is programmed to be a six lane arterial on a 120 ft right of way. SR 23 future development is programmed to be a four lane arterial on a 100 ft. Right of way. This study should consider the alternative to develop SR 118 and SR 23 as four lane arterials, or two lane limited access bypass on sufficient reserved right of way to accommodate future full bypass improvements. C. SPRING ROAD EXTENSION: (Phase 1: Assess general cost.) (Phase 2: Preliminary design plans and costs to implement this alternative must be prepared.) (Phase 3: Actual cost analysis for this option and financing strategy must be reflected in final fee program) Review conceptual plans prepared by Specific Plan No. 2 project engineer showing design modifications required to upgrade and extension of Spring Road from a local four -lane arterial to a State Route 23 bypass arterial from Walnut Canyon Road south to Charles Street. D. SR 118 /SR 23 INTERCHANGE /INTERSECTIONS c: \1 -m \contract \citywide.rfp .5 JOGIMS (Phase 1: General costs level of analysis) (Phase 2: Preliminary design plans and costs for each alternative must be prepared) (Phase 3: Financing plan and strategy required for this item) Compare and Consider interchange and intersection designs and costs for SR -118 bypass arterial and State Route 23 bypass arterial, including: 1. Original Caltrans design /proposal. 2. Full interchange with on and off ramps 118/23 (diamond)at Spring Road extension. 3. At grade computerized and signalized intersection 118/23 Spring Road extension option. 4. Fully signalized "T' intersection 118 terminus with Los Angeles Ave. Consideration should be given to the relationship to the City's proposed interconnect project for signals along Los Angeles Ave. E. GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT (Phase 2: Precise alignment and changes to circulatory network to support the recommended change must be prepared in an amendment to the Circulation Element of the General plan) Develop recommendations for required amendments to the City of Moorpark General Plan Circulation Element to accommodate planned rights of ways and alignments for the bypass routes.
