Mr. Jon Lynch NPDES Amendments Page 2 7) Preparation of staff reports for the Planning Commission and City Council 8) Attendance at one Planning Commission and one City Council meeting The work scope assumes that one Initial Study/Negative Declaration will be prepared for all of the ordinance amendments, and that the City will prepare and distribute required notices for all environmental reviews and public hearings. The scope also assumes that the number of meetings with staff are minimized by combining issues with meetings proposed in the first phase of work included in the Planning Department contract. Similarly, one Planning Commission and one City Council meeting are anticipated for all of the ordinance amendments, so that the budget reflects only the additional time associated with preparing for and attending those meetings. This proposal anticipates submittal of administrative draft ordinances to staff by not later than April 30, 2005, and additional work to finalize the amendments over a subsequent three to four month period. Work would primarily occur off-site, but MHA staff will be readily available to meet at City Hall or elsewhere as needed during the course of the project. Project Cost and Management Work will be billed in quarter-hour increments at the rate of $125 per hour for my time, $85 per hour for the work of MHA's Environmental Scientists, and $70 per hour for MHA's Document Manager. All hours worked will be accounted for in detail and invoiced to the City on a monthly basis. Direct expenses incurred in the performance of this work, including but not limited to printing and copying, photo processing, etc., will be invoiced to the City with a 15% administrative mark-up. No mileage or travel expenses are anticipated. Project costs are estimated at not-to- exceed $14,232, as outlined in the attached budget. As project manager for MHA, I will be responsible for all of the tasks outlined in the scope of work, including attendance at all meetings with staff, the applicant, and boards and commissions. I will be assisted by Tania Treis and/or Kathy Rushmore, environmental scientists with MHA, and by Roger Luc, MHA's Document Manager. Ms. Treis and/or Ms. Rushmore will provide research support, collect data and develop tables to accompany written materials. Mr. Luc will provide graphics and formatting support. No other personnel or subcontractors will be used without the consent of the City of Redwood City. Thank you for your consideration. Please contact me if you have any questions or require additional information. Sincerely, ~~~~ Curtis S. Williams, AICP Senior Associate cc: Laurie McClenahan, Principal Enclosure: Project budget )'
