Adjustments to the Scope of Work The following adjustments to the scope of work have been made as we have proceeded with the envi- ronmental review: · Additional work required to respond to the erroneous site plan for Block 2. As you will recall, Environmental Vision discovered an error in the size of that block used in the initial plan for the parking structure and specialty foods market. Additional costs were incurred by all of the subcontractors except Carey & Co. to take care of adjustments to the alternatives and the analysis of those alternatives. · Additions to the traffic scope of work. Following submittal of the ADEIR, the City requested (1) analysis of three additional intersections and (2) expansion of the parking study area. The City has verbally authorized these two work items (although no budget was speci- fied for the parking study). · Additional work required for the visual analysis. As we have discussed, after seeing the visual simulations in the ADEIR, the project sponsor (via Field Paoli) requested the opportu- nity to adjust some of the comers of the mixed-use building. We agreed to that adjustment. Also, at a meeting in March of this year, the City requested that an additional viewpoint be provided for the visual analysis. This adjustment was agreed upon, and additional budget totaling $2,800 was authorized verbally, in response to a written request from Environmental Vision dated March 15, 2000. It is noted in this letter only for completeness. · Hazardous materials analysis. As you recall, the Cultural Resources evaluation identified several past uses on both blocks that could have implications for the presence of hazardous materials on the project site. With your verbal authorization, we have contacted Erler Kali- nowski, Inc., of San Mateo to prepare a ddscussion of hazardous and toxic substances for the DEIR. Their written proposal to us is appended to this letter. ROberts Mundie, President Suzanne Lampert, Vice President rober ta.mundie@mundie.com suzanne.lampert@mundie.corn
