for all tasks. This effort is therefore incorporated into each task. Specifically, the Consultant's project manager will be the point -of -contact for the City Project Team; direct all components of the scope of work; manage subconsultants; ensure compliance with Consultant's quality assurance / quality control (QA/QC) program; provide monthly progress relative to the budget and schedule (with invoices); and participate in designated project meetings as scoped. A combination of in- person and telephone conference meetings is to occur as needed. Technical Tasks by Topic This section focuses on the project level technical analysis to be conducted for each environmental topic in the EIR. The overall work tasks that are required for every CEQA topic, as listed in Task 4 (Prepare Draft EIR), are not repeated below for each topic. The specific technical tasks described below would largely occur during development of the Draft EIR in Task 4 and therefore are numbered as sub -task of Task 4 (e.g., Tasks 4.1, 4.2, etc.). 4.1 Aesthetics Context: Consultant will: Data Needs: The Project would alter the visual visual Coordinate with the City to reconfirm from the 2015 EIR the Complete Plan Set, character the Project site.
