[SIGNATURES ON FOLLOWING PAGE] 11 61147,2002 1 \33376757.1 SIGNATURE PAGE FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT BETWEEN CITY OF SANJUAN CAPISTRANO AND T&B PLANNING, INC. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this Agreement as of the date first written above. CITY OF SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO T&B PLANNING, INC. By: By: ViN� enia ie City anager Its: 25t 2 n Printed Name:-1'rAGy Z 1 n r ATTEST: By: Cit IErk APPROVED AS TO FORM: 9W3� By: City Attorney 12 F1117 $1102 VI D76757 I EXHIBIT A Downtown/Playhouse CEQA Consulting Proposal Exhibit A: Scope of Work Project Understanding iI iq The Project Applicant (Frontier Real Estate Investments) is seeking to redevelop a 1.68 -acre property located in the City of San Juan Capistrano. The Project site is located at 31776 EI Camino Real (APNs: 124-160-55 and 124- 160-57) and is bordered by Ortega Highway to the north, Del Obispo Street to the east, a museum and parking area to the south, and EI Camino Real to the west. Under existing conditions, the subject site is City owned and includes the Camino Real Playhouse and associated parking and landscaping. The Camino Real Playhouse was opened in the early 1990s and is a community performing arts center. North of the existing structure on-site is an outdoor parking area with approximately 108 parking stalls. The City of San Juan Capistrano General Plan designates the subject property as General Commercial and a zoning designation of Town Center. The subject property is further regulated by the Historic Town Center Form -Based Code (FBC), which describes the allowable land uses and provides development standards that are specific to the City's historic town center. Surrounding land uses include Public and Institutional and Medium High Density to the north, General Commercial to the east, General Commercial to the south, and General Commercial to the west. Specifically, the San Juan Elementary School is to the north, the Blas Aguilar Adobe Museum is to the south, and the Downtown Historic Town Center is to the west. Implementation of the Downtown/Playhouse Project (Project) would require a General Plan Amendment, Code Amendment, and Rezone to create a Specific Plan that will encompass the proposed development scenario. If approved, the allowable uses and development standards of the site would be governed by the proposed Specific Plan and not the FBC. However, the proposed Specific Plan could incorporate a mix of existing FEC standards as well as new standards which would provide the Project Applicant with greater flexibility to design the Project in a manner that is compatible with the Historic Town Center. Furthermore, we understand that the Historic Town Center Master Plan (HTCMP) is currently In the process of being repealed by the City. Accordingly, to ensure consistency with City regulations, analysis will be conducted for land use consistency with or without the HTCMP. The Project Applicant proposes to demolish the existing Camino Real Playhouse building and associated parking lot and redevelop the site with 24,786 square feet of leasable area for retail, restaurant, and office uses. The commercial property will consist of two 2 -story buildings and a 1 -story parking structure. The two proposed 2 - story buildings are anticipated to be 37 feet (ft) tall (featuring a 4 1. 5 ft tall tower). The proposed parking structure would provide 119 parking stalls and is anticipated to be between 17.5 ft to 18.25 ft tall with total building area of 23,000 sf. The City has determined that an EIR is required to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). CEQA Guidelines Section 10563 states that when the lead agency can determine that an EIR will clearly be required for the Project, an initial study is not required. Accordingly, our approach is to prepare a Notice of Preparation (NOP) and move forward immediately with an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) without preparing an initial study. Page 2 T&B Planning, Inc. Downtown/Playhouse CEQA Consulting Proposal Exhibit A: Scope of Work Scope of Work Provided below is T&B Planning's proposed work program and budget for completing the required EIR for the Downtown/Playhouse Project. Please note that the SCOPE OF WORK described below will likely not be undertaken chronologically as presented. To expedite the process, there may be overlap on the timing of each task. PHASE ENVIRONMENTAL SCOPING Task 1.1 Project Initiation and Data Acguisition/Review T&B Planning will initiate work by collecting and reviewing information about the Project and property provided by the City, including materials on file with the City and provided by the Project Applicant, Project engineer, and Project architect. The following technical studies are anticipated to be prepared by the Project Applicant, peer reviewed and approved by the City, and provided to T&B Planning: • Geotechnical Report • Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) • Hydrology Report • Water quality Management Plan T&B Planning will conduct a field visit and take photographs to document existing site conditions, surrounding development, and other aspects of the site's physical and environmental setting that will warrant consideration in the environmental analysis. We will invite City staff to accompany us, if City staff would like to participate in the field visit. The site visit will also provide T&B Planning with a foundation for reviewing the complete entitlement application package submitted by the Project Applicant. The photos we collect will be GPS -referenced and will be used as the baseline for EIR analysis as required by CEQA. Task 1.2 Prepare Project Description T&B Planning will work with the City staff to prepare a formal Project Description that will be used throughout the CEQA compliance process. The Project Description will include both text and exhibits and describe the proposed Project and its construction and operational details. We expect that a majority of the exhibits will be taken from the Project Applicant's application materials that are on file with the City, with minimal graphic manipulation required by T&B Planning for legibility. Because the Project Description will form the basis for analysis within the CEQA document, we recommend that the Project Applicant be contacted to verify accuracy of the assumed construction and operational characteristics associated with the proposed Project. Additionally, the Project Description will describe any required off-site improvements. The budget for this task anticipates that the Project Applicant's civil engineer and architect will provide technical files and plans to T&B Planning in both CAD format (including all x -refs, fonts, and pen settings) and in Portable Document Format (PDF). Task 1.3 Prepare NOP and Evaluate NOP Comment Letters Based on discussions with the City, we understand that an Initial Study will not be prepared because the City has determined that an EIR is required. T&B Planning will prepare a draft NOP for City review and signature. T&B Planning will distribute the NOP for public review to the State Clearinghouse, responsible agencies and interested Page 3 T&B Planning, Inc. Downtown/Playhouse CEQA Consulting Proposal �+ Exhibit A: Scope of Work • •' parties, and the County of Orange Clerk Recorder as provided under Task 5.3. This task assumes that the City will publish the NOP in the newspaper and mail the notice to adjacent landowners. During the 30 -day public review period of the NOP, TO Planning will periodically contact City staff and request that they forward copies of any public comment letters as they are received. We will review the comment letters to ensure that relevant comments are addressed in the EIR. If any comments necessitate an expanded scope of analysis in the EIR, we will immediately reevaluate our scope of work and notify the City. PHASE 2 TECHNICAL REPORT PREPARATION The following reports will be prepared by subconsultants under sub -contract to TO Planning. If the Project Applicant opts to prepare any of the reports for our use, we will revise the scope of work presented to below to provide peer review of Applicant -submitted reports. Task 2,3 Air Quality- Greenhouse Gas, and Energy Technical Study (PlaceWorks) PlaceWorks will prepare an air quality, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and energy technical analysis to evaluate potential air quality impacts associated with the Project based on the current methodology of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (South Coast AQMD), and modeled using the California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod). Criteria Air Pollutant and GHG Emissions. The proposed Project would generate an increase in criteria air pollutant and/or GHG emissions from transportation sources, energy (natural gas and indirect emissions from purchased electricity), area sources (landscape emissions, consumer products), indirect emissions from water use and wastewater generation, and indirect emissions from waste disposal. The emissions Inventory and forecast (buildout) will be developed for the Project based on the existing and proposed land uses and weekday and weekend daily trips and weekday vehicle miles traveled provided by a traffic engineer. The air quality and GHG technical analysis will provide an estimate of the increase in long-term emissions from operation of the Project compared to South Coast AQMD's significance thresholds. Construction Emissions. PlaceWorks will estimate construction emissions associated with the development of the proposed Project. The construction phase regional emissions inventory will be based on the construction schedule, including duration for each construction subphase, anticipated equipment for each construction subphase, and demolition and soil haul (if applicable) volumes as provided by the Applicant. Project -related construction emissions will be compared to the South Coast AQMD regional significance construction thresholds. Localized air pollution impacts from onsite construction equipment exhaust and fugitive dust will also be compared to South Coast AQMD's screening -level localized significance thresholds (LST) for their potential to elevate concentrations of air pollutants at the adjacent land uses surrounding the Project site. If necessary, mitigation measures will be Identified to reduce any potentially significant regional and/or localized air quality impacts. Energy Analysis. PlaceWorks will quantify existing and Project energy use associated with the on -road fuel usage based on VMT provided by the traffic engineer using EMFAC2017 and energy (i.e., natural gas and electricity) demand based on the CalEEMod outputs conducted for the air quality and GHG analysis. PlaceWorks will also provide an overview and review of the Project's consistency with the California Renewables Portfolio Standard Program (RPS) and other energy-related regulations. Page 4 T&B Planning, Inc. Downtown/Playhouse CEQA Consulting Proposal L� Exhibit A: Scope of Work AQMP Consistency and Other Air Quality Impacts. The South Coast Air Basin (SoCAB) is currently designated nonattainment under the National and/or California ambient air quality standards (AAQS) for ozone (Os), fine inhalable particulate matter (PM2.$), coarse inhalable particulate matter (PMio), and lead (Los Angeles County only). South Coast AQMD has adopted air quality management plans (AQMPs) to ensure the SoCAB can attain the long-term National and California AAQS. The analysis will include a consistency evaluation of the Project's regional emissions to South Coast AQMD's AQM P. Furthermore, the SoCAB has been designated in attainment for carbon monoxide (CO) under both the California and National AAQS; therefore, the air quality analysis will include only a qualitative assessment of CO hotspots. PlaceWorks will also describe potential odor impacts qualitatively. Consistency with GHG Reduction Plans, The GHG analysis will discuss the GHG reduction goals of Assembly Bill 32 (AB 32), Senate Bill (32), Executive Order 5-03-05, and Senate Bill 375 (SB 375). To achieve the GHG reduction targets of SB 32 the California Air Resources Board (CARE) prepared the 2017 Scoping Plan. In addition, the Southern California Association of Government's (SCAG) anticipates adoption of the 2020 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS) (Connect SoCal) to ensure that the southern California region can attain the regional transportation -related GHG reduction goals of Senate Bill 375 (SB 375). Project consistency with statewide and regional local GHG emissions reduction strategies will be reviewed. The results of the technical analyses described above will be compiled in a Technical Study. Model outputs will be included as an appendix. Task 2.2 Construction Health Risk Analysis (PlaceWorks) PlaceWorks will prepare a construction -related health risk assessment (HRA) to analyze the Project's off-site community health risks from toxic air contaminant emissions generated from Project -related construction activities. Construction -related diesel particulate matter (DPM) emissions from off-road equipment and truck hauling impacts will be identified at the nearest sensitive receptors based on specific construction -related characteristics either provided by the applicant or compiled for the Project (e.g., construction duration, equipment use, construction phasing). Construction emissions will be based on the regional construction emissions inventory (see Task 2.1). Dispersion modeling will be performed using AERMOD, and short-term and long-term health risks will be determined for off-site sensitive receptors, including San Juan Capistrano Elementary School, Mission Basilica School and residences within 1,000 feet of the site. The results of the construction HRA analysis will be Incorporated into the Air Quality, GHG and Energy Technical Study, and the full methodology and modeling datasheets will be included as a separate technical memorandum with appendices. Task 2.3 Noise and Vibration (PlaceWorks) PlaceWorks will evaluate potential noise and vibration impacts for the construction and operational phases of the proposed Project. The noise study will discuss relevant criteria for noise exposure based on applicable federal, state, and local standards and ordinances, including applicable standards from the Municipal Code and General Plan Noise Element. Existing Conditions. The dominant noise source in the Project is traffic on 1-5 and local roadways. PlaceWorks proposes to assess existing conditions and other environmental characteristics, based on available data from the Page 5 T&B Planning, Inc. Downtown/Playhouse CEQA Consulting Proposal L!'� Exhibit A: Scope of Work General Plan, aerial photography from site visits and Google Earth, and traffic noise modeling. No ambient noise monitoring is proposed. Operational Noise. Long-term operational noise impacts will be primarily related to traffic trip generation from the proposed commercial and retail uses. Long-term operational noise will be addressed using information supplied by the applicant such as proposed hours of operation. In addition, the traffic forecasts included in the Project's traffic study will be used to conduct a traffic noise impact assessment. For the purpose of our cost estimate, we assume that the Applicant's traffic engineer can provide with and without Project average daily segment volumes for the traffic scenarios analyzed. Noise from stationary sources at the site (such as rooftop mechanical equipment, loading, and parking lot noise) would be addressed as well. Construction Noise and Vibration. Project -related construction noise will temporarily elevate the ambient noise environment, above existing conditions. An assessment of temporary noise and vibration impacts during Project construction activities will be conducted using industry -standard analysis techniques and using scheduling, equipment mix, hauling, and truck trip information (as provided by the applicant). Construction and vibration impacts will be assessed per criteria included in the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) guidelines on noise and vibration impact assessment. The findings of the technical analyses and impact assessment will be provided in a noise and vibration technical report, along with mitigation measures for any potentially significant noise and vibration impacts. Noise modeling outputs will be provided in an appendix. Task 2.4 View Simulations (PlaceWorks) 3 -Dimensional Model. PlaceWorks will prepare a 3-dimensional (3D) model of the site conditions post - development. This model will include the proposed grading, architecture and landscape conditions of the proposed development at completion. The model will be created with the use of Autodesk' AutoCAD 2019®, SketchUp, and Lumion rendering software to provide a model that can best represent as close to reality as possible. It is expected that the Project architect would provide files of the proposed buildings in sketchup model or .skp file. Visual Simulations and Renderings. PlaceWorks will prepare a series of four (4) visual simulations at selected view locations. This work effort will require the completion of 3D. The view simulations will use the combination of computer-generated renderings from the 3D model in addition to photos taken at the selected locations. The use of both photographic data and rendered model data will provide as close to as possible a realistic representation of the site and surroundings post development. Task 2.5 Archaeological, Built Environment and Paleontological Resources Report (Cogstone) Cogstone will prepare a combined archaeological, built environment, and paleontological resources assessment report. The report will characterize the results of the records searches (from the South Central Coastal Information Center and Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History), review of archival records (historic maps and aerials), consultation with local historical societies, and develop brief contexts for historical, cultural, and paleontological resources. Page 6 T&B Planning, Inc. Downtown/Playhouse CEQA Consulting Proposal t' i Exhibit A: Scope of Work .� •• Cogstone's qualified archaeologist cross -trained in paleontology will complete an intensive -level pedestrian survey. Cogstone's Architectural Historian will conduct a built environment survey of the Downtown/Playhouse Property and conduct a viewshed analysis of potential impacts to the adjacent Blas Aguilar Adobe. We assume a total of two (2) built environment resources will require recording on DPR 523 forms. Cogstone's report will make appropriate recommendations to avoid or minimize any potentially significant impacts in accordance with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring, and Reconstructing Historic Buildings or the Secretary of the Interiors Standards for Rehabilitation and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings (1995). Task 2.6 Focused Traffic Impact Analysis (Unscott. Law & Greenspan. En¢ineersl Linscott, Law & Greenspan, Engineers will provide a Focused Traffic Impact Analysis, Parking Demand Analysis, Site Access and Interna I Circulation Evaluation, and Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) analysis for the proposed Project pursuant to City of San Juan Capistrano Administrative Policy 310, Preparation and Use of Traffic Reports and in consideration of the City's Parking requirements. For the purposes of this proposal, the Focused Traffic Impact Analysis will focus on the Project's traffic impacts at eight (B) intersections, two (2) Project Driveways, five (S) roadway segments and Synchro Operational Analysis for one (1) roadway segment consisting of up to four (4) intersections for the study area. In lieu of traffic counts, LLG will establish existing conditions by factoring data for five (5) key roadway segments by 0.5% per year per City direction. A total of seven (7) traffic impact scenarios will be provided. The proposed Project's Focused Traffic Impact Analysis, Parking Demand Analysis and Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Analysis will satisfy the requirements of the City of San Juan Capistrano, and will be consistent with the current Orange County Congestion Management Program (CMP) Traffic Impact Analysis Report (TIA) Guidelines. Task 2.7 Biological Resources Letter Report (Glenn Lukas Associates) Glenn Lukas Associates will provide a Biological Resources Report which will consist of a literature review using the California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USF WS) species occurrence data, and a site review of potential habitat for sensitive species that could pose a constraint to a Project. The regulatory overview consists of the review of the potential jurisdictions of: (1) the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA); (2) the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) pursuant to Section 1602 of the California Fish and Ga me Code; and (3) the California Water Quality Control Board (Regional Board) pursuant to Section 401 of the CWA and Section 13260 of the California Water Code. A biologist will conduct a site reconnaissance of the property to determine whether any sensitive species and/or communities are likely to occur on site. If any sensitive species or potential habitat for such species or sensitive communities are identified on site and could pose a constraint to the Project, their presence will be noted and locations will be provided on a site map, as applicable. As part of the site reconnaissance, the biologist will also conduct a tree survey to map, tag, and catalog the circumference (or diameter at breast height) and health condition of each tree that may be subject to a tree permit by the City of San Juan Capistrano. Upon completion of the fieldwork, GLA will prepare a letter report to document the findings concerning potential Corps, Regional Board, and/or CDFW potential jurisdiction on the site. The letter report will also include the results of the CNDDB and CNPS review, soil map review, site survey, and tree survey. Based on the site's existing Page 7 T&B Planning, Inc. Downtown/Playhouse CEQA Consulting Proposal Exhibit A: Scone of Work 1P l+ I, developed conditions, it is not expected that focused surveys for special -status plant or animal species would be necessary. The site also does not appear to support any jurisdictional waters. PHASE 3 PREPARE DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT Task 3.1 Prepare Administrative Draft EIR T&B Planning will prepare a Preliminary Draft EIR in accordance with State and City of San Juan Capistrano guidelines. We will begin by preparing all EIR sections that are not reliant on technical studies. EIR sections that are reliant on technical studies will be prepared following City of San Juan Capistrano approval of each respective technical study. The EIR will include the following sections: Executive Summary. This Introductory section will provide a synopsis of each Project component; a summary of the Project Alternatives, including an identification of the "Environmentally Superior Alternative;' and a brief discussion of areas of controversy and issues to be resolved by the decision- making body. The Executive Summary also will include a Summary Table which will identify the impact, level of impact significance before mitigation measures, mitigation measures, and level of impact significance after mitigation measures are applied. Introduction. The Introduction will explain the purpose of the EIR, the legal authority for preparation of the EIR, and the EIR process. Relationship to the City's General Plan and General Plan EIR will be discussed. In addition, the Introduction will identify the Lead Agency (City of San Juan Capistrano), Responsible Agencies, and/or Trustee Agencies. The relationship of each component of the Project to future Project approvals and/or environmental permits also will be described. Environmental Setting. The Environmental Setting will describe the Project's location, geographic and physical setting, surrounding land uses, and the physical environmental conditions of the property as they existed on the date of the EIR's NOP issuance. A brief overview of the environmental conditions of the Project area also will be provided. In addition, a summary of the existing planning and policy context will be presented, including the property's relationship to the General Plan, zoning, and other applicable regional plans and policy documents. Project Description. The Project Description, which will be based on the Project Description prepared as part of Task 1.2, will be used as the basis for the impact analysis throughout the EIR. This section will include a brief description of the Project's location and setting. This section also will identify the Project's objectives, which will form the basis for subsequent analysis of Project Alternatives. In addition, an extensive description of the proposed Project will be included, which will consist of a summary of actions that may be associated with Implementation of the proposed Project. Any areas anticipated to be impacted by off-site improvements also will be described in this section. Finally, the Project Description will document any and all anticipated subsequent approvals, including approvals that may be required from federal, State, and/or local agencies. Exhibits will be included in this section as necessary to describe the proposed Project. Environmental Analysis. The analysis of environmental effects section will address each environmental issue identified in the NOP and scoping process for evaluation, in the following general manner. The existing conditions/environmental setting as it relates specifically to the environmental topic under Page 8 T&B Planning, Inc. Downtown/Playhouse CEQA Consulting Proposal Exhibit A: Scope of Work evaluation will be described to establish a baseline for conducting the environmental analysis. As necessary and appropriate, a description of key terminology and concepts associated with the environmental issue area will be presented, followed by a discussion of any regulatory requirements that may apply. Next, the significance criteria will be listed and will be accompanied by a justification as to the appropriateness of the criteria selected for evaluation. An analysis will then be presented for each significance criteria, and the analysis will provide a clear description and conclusion as to the level of significance of Project impacts, prior to mitigation. The analysis also will include a discussion of potential growth inducing impacts and potential cumulative impacts, which are defined as those which by themselves may not result in significant impacts but when combined with similar impacts from existing, approved -but -not -yet -built or planned projects would be cumulatively significant. T&B Planning will rely on City staff and LLG to identify surrounding projects to be included in the cumulative impact analysis. For each significant impact identified, feasible and enforceable mitigation measures will be presented. Finally, each chapter in this section will provide a conclusion as to the level of significance following implementation of recommended mitigation measures will be determined. Based on our preliminary knowledge of the proposed Project and our suggested approach for completing the environmental documentation, this proposal assumes the following 17 environmental issue areas will be addressed in the EIR: o Aesthetics o Air Quality o Biological Resources o Cultural Resources o Energy o Geology/Soils o Greenhouse Gas Emissions o Hazards & Hazardous Materials o Hydrology/Water Quality o Land Use/Planning o Noise o Population/Housing a Public Services o Recreation o Transportation o Tribal Cultural Resources o Utilities/Service Systems Environmental Effects Found Not to be Significant. The EIR will summarize unavoidable impacts of the Project and will identify whether or not the impacts will be mitigated to below a level of significance. The EIR also will disclose significant irreversible environmental changes which would be Involved in the proposed action should it be implemented. A discussion of growth inducement will focus on elements of the proposed Project that could remove obstacles to growth in the area, such as expanded water and sewer service capabilities or the provision of improved roadway connections. Lastly, this section will Page 9 T&B Planning, Inc. Downtown/Playhouse CEQA Consulting Proposal Exhibit A: Scooe of Work disclose effects that were found not to be significant and that do not warrant an in-depth analysis in the EIR (i.e., assumed as Agriculture & Forestry Resources; Mineral Resources; Wildfire). Project Alternatives. The Project Alternatives section will be based on a description of reasonable Project Alternatives defined in consultation with City staff and the Project Applicant. Each alternative identified in this section will be intended to meet the Project's primary objectives while minimizing or eliminating significant environmental effects associated with the proposed Project. For purposes of budgeting for this task, it is expected that three (3) alternatives will be presented in the EIR, including the No Project/No Development Alternative and No Project/Existing Zoning. If exhibits illustrating the alternatives are required, the exhibits shall be provided by the Project Applicant's engineer, at a level of detail that facilitates their analysis as required under CEQA. References. This required section will identify all reference sources used and persons contacted in order to prepare the EIR. Upon completion of the Preliminary Draft EIR, the EIR document and its supporting technical reports will be submitted to the City of San Juan Capistrano. Task 3.2 Revise Administrative Draft EIR per City Comment Based on City of San Juan Capistrano staff review of the Administrative Draft EIR document, T&B Planning will revise the EIR document to respond to comments, questions, and requests for clarification. This proposal anticipates that comments will be moderate in scope and complexity. If requested, all document revisions will be indicated in strikeout/underline format based on comments provided by City staff. For the purpose of creating a budget for this task, we anticipate that the City will not require substantial changes to the Project Description or request substantial expansions to any technical studies prepared in support of the EIR. Upon completion of the revised Administrative Draft EIR, the EIR document will be submitted to the City for review. The budget for this task anticipates that only minor document revisions will be requested from the City following submittal of the revised Administrative Draft EIR document. Following City review of the revised Administrative Draft EIR document, it is anticipated that the City will clear the EIR for public review. W e anticipate that two review cycles of the Administrative Draft EIR will be sufficient; however, if the City requests a third review, T&B Planning may arrange a meeting with appropriate City staff to discuss the City's comments and recommend appropriate ways to address their concerns. Additional budget would be required to revise the Administrative Draft EIR should a third review of the document be necessary. Task 3.3 Prepare Mitigation. Monitoring, and Reporting Program (MMRP) T&B Planning will prepare a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) in accordance with State law and City requirements to ensure implementation of mitigation measures, standard conditions, and project design features assumed In the EIR's analysis of impacts. The MMRP will identify the conclusions drawn by the EIR, identify the level of impact significance for each significance threshold, and list every mitigation measure listed in the EIR, with the implementation timing and responsible parties noted. T&B Planning staff is experienced in preparing practical, easily -implemented mitigation monitoring plans fora wide range of mitigation requirements. This proposal includes one round of moderate revisions to the MMRP in strikeout/underline format based on comments provided by City staff. Page 10 T&B Planning, Inc. Downtown/Playhouse CEQA Consulting Proposal Exhibit A: Scope of Work !� Task 3.4 Prepare Public Review Draft EIR and Public Notices Upon receiving City authorization to publish the Draft EIR, T&B Planning will prepare and print for public distribution the Draft EIR and its Technical Appendices per City direction and State requirements. The budget for this task assumes distribution of the Draft EIR and Technical Appendices primarily in PDF format, burned to CDs or USBs with a custom-designed label. A small number of hard copies will be required for distribution to the City or agencies that require paper copies. T&B Planning will prepare the Notice of Completion (NOC) and other public notices required for the Draft EIR's 45 -day public review period. T&B Planning also will compile a mailing list that will be based on the list used for the NOP distribution, with any modifications requested by the City and supplemented by any Interested parties who may have previously requested notification. T&B Planning will request that the City prepare an advertisement for publication in the local newspaper as required by CEQA. T&B Planning will conduct the DEIR mailing/distribution, under Task 5.1 and Task 5.3. During the 45 -day review period, written public comment will be directed to the City. We will request that the City forward copies of the comment letters to T&B Planning as they are received, and then send us the complete set of original letters at the close of the public comment period. This will ensure that we have a complete package and allow for scanning at the best quality possible. If any comments necessitate an expanded scope of analysis in the Final EIR, we will immediately evaluate our scope -of -work and notify the Project Applicant. PHASE 4 PREPARE FINAL EIR AND RESPONSES TO PUBLIC COMMENT Task 4.1 Prepare Response to Public Comments and Administrative Draft Final EIR Upon completion of the 45 -day public review period, T&B Planning will prepare written responses to all comment letters received. All comments received in response to the Draft EIR will be discussed with City staff, the Project Applicant, legal counsel, and the technical consultants as necessary, and an approach to the responses will be agreed upon prior to preparation of the draft Response to Comments. The draft Response to Comments will be submitted to the City and the Project Applicant for review and approval. The budget assumes 100 hours of staff time to complete. Concurrently, we also will incorporate any necessary revisions into the EIR document to clarify or correct information in support of the draft Response to Comments. Any such revisions will be shown in strikeout/underline format. If any comments necessitate an expanded scope of analysis in the Final EIR or additional technical analysis, T&B Planning will immediately evaluate our scope -of -work and notify the City. A new section in the EIR ("Final EIR") will be drafted to document the public review process for the EIR, summarize the comment letters received, and identify the nature, location, and reason for any and all revisions incorporated into the final document. This new section also will provide a discussion and rationale for why recirculation of the Draft EIR for an additional 45 -day public review period is not required pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15088.5. The Final EIR section and any changed pages in the Draft EIR will be submitted for the City's initial review, along with copies of the draft Response to Comments and electronic versions of the Final EIR section, changed pages, and Responses to Comments. Following receipt of comments from the City and/or the Project Applicant, T&B Planning will incorporate revisions to the Response to Comments and draft Final EIR and re -submit the documents for City staff approval. At this stage, major revisions are not expected, nor budgeted. Once approved by City staff, Page 11 T&B Planning, Inc. Downtown/Playhouse CEQA Consulting Proposal Exhibit A: Scope of Work T&B Planning will publish copies of the draft Final EIR for use by decision -makers and City staff during the public hearing process. Task 4.2 Prepare Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations T&B Planning will prepare the CEQA documents required for the Final EIR public hearings, including the draft Statement of Overriding Considerations (if required) and the Section 15091 CEQA Findings of Fact (requiring a summary of each effect, identification of one or more of the required CEQA findings, listing of the associated mitigation measures, and the rationale for implementing the measures. This document will be submitted to the City Attorney for review. Following review of the first draft, it Is anticipated that the City Attorney may request minor revisions to clarify or expand on the findings and/or rationale for adopting a Statement of Overriding Considerations. The budget for this task assumes one round of revisions to the Findings of Fact/Statement of Overriding Considerations, following which the final document will be submitted to the City for final review and approval. Task 4.3 Prepare Final EIR and NOD Upon receiving the City's approval of the Response to Comments, T&B Planning will finalize the administrative draft Final EIR document and print an appropriate number of copies for use by the decision makers during the public hearing stages. As required pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15088(b), the Response to Comments must be distributed via certified mail to all public agencies that commented on the Draft EIR at least 10 days prior to certification of the Final EIR. T&B Planning will distribute the Response to Comments via certified mail under Task 5.1 and Task 5.3. After certification of the Final EIR by the Lead Agency, T&B Planning will prepare a Notice of Determination (NOD) form pursuant to Section 15094 of the CEQA Guidelines. Once reviewed and approved by City staff, T&B Planning will post the NOD with the County Clerk. Timely filing of the NOD — within five (5) working days of final decision by the lead agency (City of San Juan Capistrano) — reduces the statute of limitations on court challenges to the CECIA approval from 180 days to 30 days. PHASE 5 MEETINGS. PROJECT MANAGEMENT, AND QUALITY CONTROL Task 5.1 ProjectProiect Management. Meetings. 5B18/AB52 Coordination Meetings. 5B18/AB52 Coordination This task is intended to cover coordination tasks associated with T&B Planning's work. This includes time spent by T&B Planning in attending meetings, preparing/updating project schedules, or in coordinating/communicating via phone, e-mail, letter and/or web -based conferencing with City staff, City Attorney, and public agencies. This task includes ten (10) meetings with staff, including a kick-off meeting, progress meetings to discuss preparation of the Administrative Draft EIR, Draft EIR, and responses to public comments. This task will commence upon authorization of this contract and will continue throughout the duration of the Project. We have budgeted for 10 hours per month over a 12 -month schedule (120 hours). Task 5.1 also includes attendance at an EIR Scoping Meeting.
