APPENDIX 1 UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS SCOPE OF SERVICES CITY OF REDWOOD CITY FEBRUARY 27, 2006 conditions will be tabulated and will include all known projects in the Development Review process. For each build-out scenario for the Precise Plan, loading conditions will be established. Nolte will submit a memorandum of this task to submit to the City for review and comment. Task 3 - Existing Computer Modeling Results Data will be collected from the existing computer models and existing utility systems in the Downtown Area and downstream facilities. The results will be tabulated and the output summarized for each of the utilities studied. During the pre-bid meeting, a need to assess the City's approach in the use of commuter modeling with respect to current trends in the industry was requested. It is understood that the Community and Development Services Engineering and Construction Department does not have an Infonnation Technologies (IT) Master Plan to work to with respect to the computer modeling needs and effective incorporation into other technologies such as GIS and asset management applications. The preparation of this plan is an extensive but valuable exercise that can provide a cogent road map to ensure that any investment in IT is made to gainful effect and is in context with industry trends while fitting in with the systems being adopted by the City as a whole. As the full need for professional services for this task is not clear at the moment, the cost of these inputs has not been extended to the cost proposal but the methodology is provided for further consideration. Should the City find it prudent to follow this procedure, Nolte will provide resumes and more detailed procedure and breakdown of costs for execution on a time and materials basis. Nolte will commence this work by first conducting a needs assessment through a series of interviews with department and City staff. This will fonn the basis of a scope of work for further investigation based on the "objective orientated" planning methodology outlined in Task 9 below. Task 4 - Water System Analysis Nolte will model the water system with the Haestead program WaterCAD. Proposed piping and appurtenances can be built off of the City's core model since the City already uses W aterCAD. The modeling should be seamless and results familiar to the City Staff. Model runs shall be included for each of the following scenarios: II Nonnal domestic peak hour flow, without fire flow. d} Domestic peak hour flow, with fire flow. II Emergency operating conditions, which is domestic peak hour flow without Hetch-Hetchy water lines.
