Dumhart, Economic Development Manager SUBJECT: Consideration of Proposals to Update the Historic Town Center Master Plan (*City Council Priority#16A) RECOMMENDATION: 1.) Conduct interviews with the top three firms recommended by the evaluation panel. 2.) By motion, select the preferred respondent and authorize the Executive Director to prepare and execute a Professional Services Agreement. 3.) By motion, approve a total project budget of $600,000 for Amending the Historic Town Center Plan and transfer $250,000 from the Ortega Highway Redesign Project (Acct# 28-00000-67101-10902-000) and $100,000 from the Streetscape and Furniture Designs Standard Project (Acct# 28-00000-67101-10903-000) the Downtown Master Plan Project (Acct# 28-00000-67101-09911-000). SUMMARY: The Agency received six responses to its request for proposals to prepare an update to the Historic Town Center Plan. An evaluation panel has reviewed and rated the proposals and has recommended a preferred respondent to the Board. At their December 15, 2009 meeting the Board of Directors elected to interview the top three firms as ranked by the evaluation panel. BACKGROUND: At their October 6, 2009 Board meeting, the Directors considered a Request for Proposal ("RFP") to prepare an amendment to the Historic Town Center Master Plan ( HTC Master Plan ). In addition to the Plan Amendment the Agency is seeking professional services to conduct environmental review of the amended plan subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Board approved the RFP with minor additions and authorized staff to solicit proposals from a list of pre-qualified firms. The RFP for professional land planning and environmental consulting services for amending the Historic Town Center Master Plan was issued on October 8, 2009 with responses due by November 12, 2009. A total of ten RFP's were distributed. Six proposals were received by the Agency from the following firms in alphabetical order: Agenda Report Page 2 January 8, 2010 1. Dahlin Group, www.dahlingroup.com 2. Design, Community, and Environment, www.dceplanning.com 3. RRM Designs, www.rrmdsign.com 4. Studio One Eleven, www.studio-111.com 5. Torti Gallas and Partners, www.tortigallas.com 6. Field PaoliNillage Partners, www.fieldpaoli.com The scope of work in the RFP called for two major work components. One component was to update the HTC Master Plan. The Second component was to prepare the environmental review of the updated Master Plan. The update of the Master Plan involves expanding the plan area, evaluating circulation elements including among other matters, the narrowing of Ortega Highway and its possible extension into the Depot area, parking, and pedestrian movements. Along with vehicular and pedestrian movement will include a new chapter entitled Public Realm to cover streetscape design aspects. The update was also going to determine the development intensity necessary to ensure redevelopment viability. To prepare the requisite work requires the coordination of many fields of discipline. A breakdown of each Proposer's multi-disciplinary team is identified in the table below: Dahlin Group Dahlin Hunsaker& Summers/ Undsco%Law Hunsaker& Michael Group Assoc. Murphy &Greenspan Assoc.

City Council Policy Number 112 establishes guidelines to be used in securing and selecting professional services. A copy of City Council Policy #112 is provided as Attachment#1 to this report. Evaluation Panel Past Chairman Hribar appointed a seven-member panel to help evaluate the proposals, interview the respondents and make a recommendation for the preferred consulting team to the Board of Directors. The panel consisted of two members from the City Council, two members from the Planning Commission, one member from the Design Agenda Report Page 3 January 8, 2010 Review Committee, one member from the Transportation Commission and one representative from the downtown stakeholders. Each evaluation panel member was provided a copy of the Board approved RFP which defines the proposal submission requirements and anticipated scope of work; one hard copy of each of the six proposals and accompanying rating matrix sheet. Interviews were held with all six respondents on Wednesday, November 18, 2009. All six responding teams were provided an interview. The table below show how the panelist ranked the proposing teams and their submission. V to Imo E y 0 S m y m S d E o o ° 'm A � VIL t G p > 7 W A m p G U W N E 6.

All firms' proposals were responsive to the RFP's suggested scope of work. Most firms deviated little from the scope outlined in the RFP; however some proposals did identify optional additional work that the in firms professional opinion would be sensible additions to the endeavor. For example, the Master Plan amendment process may establish parking standard for the HTC area that are not consistent with current zoning requirements. In this example, some proposals offered as additional services to prepare any requisite code amendments that maybe necessary to implement the Amended Master Plan. The table below summarizes the ranking of the six respondents by the evaluation panel. The top three firms are Field Paoli, Studio One Eleven and RRM Designs.

Approach Historic Town Center Master Plan Update and EIR The goal of this work effort is to update and refine the existing Master Plan adopted in 1995, provide CEQA review and documentation and to incorporate City Council direction provided at the June 15, 2009 meeting and to address: • Preliminary concepts supported by Mayor's Sub-Committee • Technical Advisory Panel Report prepared by ULI Orange County Additional resources that may advise the update process include the July 2003 Blue Ribbon Panel report and existing parking studies. The project area boundaries are proposed to encompass additional area and generally include the railroad tracks to the west, Del Obispo Street to the south and southeast, Ortega Highway/1-5 Freeway interchange to the east and the properties immediately north of Ortega Highway. A primary aim will be to retain the overall goals and objectives contained within the plan and focus refinements to create a current and relevant Master Plan. Preliminarily, the update effort will address the Revised Alternative #2 contained in the existing Master Plan to consider: • Development of a significant hotel component. • Retention of the current alignment of the Ortega Highway to the Mission, but with: a) increased pedestrian opportunities, and b) a possible future extension of the road to the multi-modal area at the depot. • Development of an extension of the existing parking structure. • Modification of EI Camino Real, Yorba, and Verdugo Streets to limit vehicular access and increase pedestrian use. • Extension Forster Street from Del Obispo to Camino Capistrano. • Improvements to pedestrian opportunities on Camino Capistrano from Del Obispo to Ortega Highway. • Facilitation of commercial development of Diocese property and the City owned properties in the historic core. Within that development, there should be a residential component. Look at opportunities to maximize and pre-design for floor area ratios. • Implementation of existing parking concepts and incorporate Urban Land Institute recommendations. • Proposed 1-5/Ortega Highway Interchange improvements. Our scope of work is organized sequentially in the order in which we intend to run the project, and we are prepared to work as necessary to best satisfy the City objectives, budget, and time frames. In an effort to be sensitive to budgetary constraints, we have developed a scope that meets the minimum project requirements, but have also included a few of optional tasks that may be selected by the City to add value to the development of the Master Plan. • rrm group IN vreating environments a-*e9m' City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan 1 Approach For ease of reference, below is an outline of proposed tasks followed by a detailed scope of work.

Review of City Council direction provided at the June 15, 2009 meeting will also provide important background. Other documentation regarding area history and other design related documentation will be helpful to inform the design development. Such documentation is anticipated to include, but is not limited to, the following: • 1987 Historic Town Center Plan EIR • 1995 Historic Town Center Master Plan • Congleton/Burba Marketing Analysis of the Historic Town Center Master Plan • ULI's TAP report • Fehr& Peers 2008 Downtown Parking Study • 1-5/Ortega Interchange Improvements documentation • General Plan and EIR • Zoning Ordinance Additionally, Urban Crossroads will provide transportation planning and engineering support for the project. Within in this task, Urban Crossroads will collect baseline data and prepare a mobility assessment including: • Document existing transportation network, travel patterns, traffic volumes, and other pertinent information for inclusion in the Mobility Assessment. • Conduct/ Compile peak hour intersection turning movement counts, at up to thirty (30) existing intersections. Traffic counts will be collected for 3 weekdays and averaged, pursuant to the requirements of City Administrative Policy# 310. Available traffic counts less than one year (12 months) old will be used, where available. For budgeting purposes, it has been assumed that 15 new peak hour traffic counts will be required. • Conduct/ compile 24-hour roadway segment counts.. Traffic counts will be collected for 3 weekdays and averaged, pursuant to the requirements of City Administrative Policy # 310. Traffic counts less than one year (12 months) old will be used, where available. For budgeting purposes, it has been assumed that up to ten (10) segment counts will be required. • Conduct a field inventory of intersection traffic control measures, approach lanes at intersections, and through travel lanes along segments. • Compile and document data related to additional transportation systems, including public transit, bicycle, pedestrian, truck, etc. Public transit will include bus services, and demand responsive services. Existing bicycle and pedestrian facilities will be identified. • Request accident data for the three most recent years available from City staff. Review and summarize the data and identify potential hazard areas that may be amenable to improvement rrm; , ,group IN creating environments pmptn enjoy' City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan 3 Approach through changes in the existing circulation system, including possible traffic calming measures. • Review and summarize relevant information from previously prepared studies of the Historic Town Center area. The recently published Downtown Parking Study, Interstate (1-)5/Ortega Highway interchange improvements documentation, and ULI TAP report are key documents that provide valuable input and insight into the challenges and potential solutions to various transportation circulation and parking issues within the study area. Deliverable Products: Review relevant documentation and data as noted above, prepare executive summary memorandum of data collection and meeting recordings. I-B Kick-off Meeting The consultant team will prepare for and conduct a kick-off meeting with City staff. This task will include the following: • Review of project objectives, scope of work, and project timeline • Identification of key project contacts and information exchange • Discussion of general problems, hot spots, and issues to be focused on during the project • Identification of optimal working relationship in terms of receipt and review of materials, turnaround times, etc. • Discussion of product format, organization, and graphic quality presentation • Tour of the study area • Perform site study and photo documentation of existing site conditions. Deliverable Products: Provide refined project timeline and prepare a summary of tour observations with photo journal. I-C Mapping and Document Format Refinements to the Master Plan, base mapping and document preparations will be necessary. Some mapping has already been accomplished with preparation of the Preliminary Concepts exhibit used to support the Stakeholders Committee discussions and recommendations. This base exhibit will be expanded to include parcel lines, ownership, street locations, land uses and existing development areas, circulation routes and gateways, aerial photos, surface infrastructure, etc. The base map will be used throughout the project for various mapping and design exhibits. As an overlay to this base, the consultant team will prepare an existing conditions map with opportunities/constraints illustrating significant site features for use in public meetings and discussions. The exhibit will likely include existing land use, historic resources, and public spaces. In addition, as the original Master Plan document was prepared in 1995, the digital files are not available.

Deliverable Products: Preparation of Base Map and Opportunities and Constraints exhibits. Preparation of retyped text and figure enhancements for affected portions of existing Master Plan. I-D Market Demand Analysis As requested in Addendum 1 to the issued RFP, a long-term (2010-2030) forecast of demand for the various contemplated land uses in the Historic Town Center will be prepared considering economic trends and competitive position. The Natelson Dale Group (TNDG) will prepare the market demand analysis which will address the following land use types: • Retail/restaurant; • Hotel; • Multi-family residential; • Office; • Mixed-use development incorporating combinations of the above land uses. The key purposes of the market study will be to determine the following for each candidate land use: • Regional demand trends over short-term (i.e., 3-5 year) and longer-term (5-10 year) timeframes; • The Plan area's potential "capture rate" or market share of development demand, quantified in terms of total acres, dwelling units, hotel rooms and commercial (retail and office) square feet; and • Potential absorption rates (i.e., timing of development) within the Plan area, given the likely market shares of competing projects in the region. Retail Demand Analysis.

Although this task is not specified in the RFP, implementation recommendations provide useful guidance for realizing the goals of the Master Plan and are offered as an optional task. The Natelson Dale Group will be the key team member for this task. The overall implementation element will include the following components: • Identification and prioritization of key opportunity sites; • Recommended timing of public improvements; • Identification of municipal incentives necessary to attract desired land uses; • Designation of lead agencies for implementation of Master Plan actions; • Recommended marketing approaches to attract desired development and/or to expand consumer awareness of the Plan area; • Analysis of potential funding sources and financing mechanisms. Deliverable Products: TNDG will prepare implementation recommendations for inclusion in the Amended Master Plan document. Phase III —CEQA Documentation III-A Environmental Impact Report Preparation The work program described below assumes that the project will require an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The proposed work program is designed to meet the legal requirements of CEQA while providing information to decision- makers and the public that will allow informed decisions with respect to the proposed project's environmental impacts. Preparation of an EIR for the Master Plan also helps further Master Plan implementation by streamlining future project review and reducing redevelopment risks. Rincon Consultants will lead the environmental documentation for the project with technical support from Urban Crossroads (transportation/circulation), Applied Earthworks (cultural and historical resources), Mestre Greve Associates (Noise) and NMG Geotechnical (geology, soils and seismicity). Other needed technical analyses such as air quality and climate change will be conducted in-house by Rincon. The core EIR process is outlined in Section III-A.1 below, and the technical approach to the environmental issues of concern is presented in Section III-A.2. 111-A.1 EIR Work Program Kickoff Meeting Rincon will attend a kickoff meeting for the project with City staff. This meeting will serve as a forum to: rrm group IN 12 City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan creating emronmenb people enjoy' Approach • Review and confirm study objectives • Establish an operational protocol • Gather any technical studies not already delivered Working schedules will be established, and details for scheduled tasks will be discussed. We will also have an opportunity to determine the cumulative analysis approach and the nature of possible alternatives to the proposed project that will be addressed in the EIR. Lastly, we will establish the schedule and format for the scoping meeting. Initial Study /Notice of Preparation Rincon will prepare and Initial Study (IS) and Notice of Preparation (NOP) for circulation to concerned agencies and others identified in City mailing lists relevant to the project. The IS will cover all of the items on the checklist in Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines. The document will include both the checklist and supporting analysis. Rincon will use the format preferred by the City. The purpose of the IS will be to identify which issues can be dismissed from further study and which issues will require further analysis in the EIR. It is assumed that the City will be responsible for circulating the documents to concerned agencies. Scoping Meeting Rincon will take the lead on organizing and presenting a Scoping Meeting for the project. The Scoping Meeting will take place during the 30-day period during which the NOP circulates. The purpose of the meeting will be to introduce the proposed project to the community, provide an overview of the EIR process, and obtain input on the EIR scope of work. The meeting will be attended by Rincon's core team, including the Project Manager, and will include a brief presentation, followed by receipt of input from meeting attendees. Following the meeting, Rincon will prepare a memorandum summarizing the proceedings and providing any suggestions for work scope augmentation. Description of Project and Alternatives Rincon will prepare a detailed description of the project for review by the City. Textual, tabular, and graphic presentation will be included as necessary to facilitate a thorough understanding of proposed operations. The project description will be submitted to the City for review and concurrence prior to the commencement of the formal environmental analysis. Rincon will evaluate up to three alternatives to the project. Administrative Draft EIR (10 copies, 1 electronic copy) The EIR will be prepared in conformance with the CEQA Guidelines, which set the standards for adequacy of an EIR. To the extent possible, Rincon will incorporate information from existing environmental and planning documents that may be applicable to the project. • Executive Summary. The EIR will contain a summary of the proposed project and associated rrm ;,. _o:group 111 <reean9 envlmnmen� r—ple�IW' City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan 13 Approach environmental consequences. This information will be presented in tabular format to simplify review by decision-makers and the general public. This section will identify: o Each potentially significant environmental impact o Mitigation measures required for significant impacts o The level of impact after mitigation The summary will also note areas of known controversy and an assessment of the alternatives reviewed and their associated impacts. The summary will also identify the environmentally superior alternative and rationale for its selection as such. • Environmental Impact Analysis. This section will analyze the environmental impacts of each of the project alternatives (including the preferred alternative) for each of the issues identified in the IS as having potentially significant environmental effects. These issues are discussed below in Section III-A.2, Technical Approach to Environmental Analysis. Where possible, impacts will be quantified. If existing data do not allow definitive quantification, reasonable assumptions will be used to qualitatively forecast potential impacts. Cumulative impacts will be discussed within this analysis, but at a lesser level of detail than the project-specific impacts. Mitigation measures may include a range of design measures and programs as proposed by the City staff and consultant team. All mitigation measures will be presented in wording that can be directly applied to conditions of approval and will include monitoring requirements. • Other CEQA Discussions. The EIR will include all other discussions required by the CEQA Guidelines, including an analysis of potential growth-inducing impacts, a listing of significant irreversible changes. Draft EIR (40 copies, 1 electronic copy) This task involves the production, editorial work, and communication processes anticipated to respond to City comments on the Administrative Draft EIR and publish the Draft EIR for public review and comment. The document will need to circulate for a minimum of 45 days. Rincon will prepare a Notice of Availability of Draft EIR for the City to use to provide notice to all organizations and individuals who have expressed interest in receiving such notice, publish the notice in a local newspaper. Final EIR (40 copies, 1 electronic copy) This task involves final formal stages of the EIR processes involve responding to comments, and final publication tasks. Through this process, final changes and policy decisions concerning the project are made. The work effort is described below. • Responses to Comments / Preliminary Final EIR. Subsequent to receipt of all public comments on the Draft EIR, Rincon and our subconsultants will prepare responses and submit one copy of the draft responses to comments for City review, including any added or substantially revised sections rrm igroup 14 City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan creacinq mvimmmems people enjoy' Approach of the Draft EIR that may be necessary. Upon receipt of City comments on the draft responses, we will prepare the final responses for incorporation into the Final EIR. Subsequently, Rincon will modify as necessary any text in the EIR that requires such a step. • Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan. As required by CEQA, Rincon will prepare a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for the project. The MMRP will be provided in a format designed for use by planners or code enforcement officers. Essentially, the plan will take the form of a detailed table that compiles all of the adopted mitigation measures developed within the body of the EIR, as well as information necessary to monitor compliance with each measure. III-A.2 Technical Approach to Environmental Analysis The final scope of work for the issues to be examined during the environmental review process will be based on the any responses to the NOP and other input received during the environmental scoping process. Based on the RFP and discussions with City staff, we anticipate that the following environmental issues will require study in the EIR: • Aesthetics • Air Quality • Cultural and Paleontological Resources • Hazards and Hazardous Materials • Hydrology and Water Quality • Geology, Soils and Seismicity • Global Climate Change • Land Use • Noise • Population, Employment & Housing • Public Services and Utilities • Traffic and Circulation and Access Rincon's technical approach to the analysis of the issues to be studied in the EIR is described below. Aesthetics. The project area is visible from multiple public vantage points including Interstate 5, existing local streets, and Historic Town Center Park. It is likely that the density and type of development associated with the master plan will modify the existing vantage points to and from the plan area. RRM understands that one of the major objectives of the Town Center Master Plan is to encourage promote strategic economic development and maintain the character of the plan area. Consistent with this goal, the City has several guidelines and policies within the current Historic Town Center Master Plan that will be applied to development within the plan area and all new construction within the plan area will be subject to discretionary review. Therefore, it is unlikely that implementation of the master plan will result in significant aesthetic impacts. Rincon will describe the existing visual character of the plan are and the surrounding land uses, and will also conduct a visual analysis based on a site visit and photo documentation. We will evaluate and describe potential visual impacts associated with the master plan. The rrm group III creating en.i.anmenas people enjoy' City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan 15 Approach evaluation will address issues including project visibility from key public viewpoints, compatibility with existing scale and architectural character of the surrounding vicinity, potential view blockage, light and glare, and consistency with public plans and policy regarding visual/urban design quality. Potentially significant visual impacts will be identified and visual/ aesthetic mitigation measures, such as alternative building massing guidelines, or landscape treatment will be recommended. Air Quality. Rincon will complete the air quality assessment for this EIR. The focus of the air quality assessment will be identification of any regional air quality impacts associated with the long-term operation of land uses within the plan area and a discussion of the requirements for assessment of potential impacts from specific projects that may arise as a result of implementation of the Master Plan. The existing air environment will be described in terms of meteorology, local topography affecting pollutant dispersion, and ambient air monitoring data. A summary of current air management efforts, which may be related to the proposed project, will be provided with particular emphasis on the 2007 AQMP, and the requirements for air quality assessments identified in the SCAQMD's CEQA Handbook. Sensitive receptor areas within the project vicinity will be identified. The air quality impacts of the proposed project can be divided into short-term construction, local impacts, and long-term regional air pollution increases. As no specific projects will be identified by the Plan, potential short-term air quality impacts from demolition and construction activities will be discussed generally. The application of the SCAQMD Localized Significance Thresholds (LST) thresholds to identify localized air quality impacts and Mass Daily thresholds to identify regional air quality impacts from construction will be discussed. Measures to reduce dust generation are required by the South Coast Air Quality Management District. Additionally, measures are contained in the 2007 AQMP for control of construction activity emissions, and these will be included in the list of mitigation measures. Potential local air quality hot-spot impacts at intersections with traffic affected by the project will be examined. Changes in traffic resulting from the project that could cause or significantly contribute to an exceedance in the ambient air quality standards near an intersection will be identified. A qualitative screening threshold will be utilized to determine if detailed quantitative modeling is warranted to determine any potential hot-spot impacts. If modeling is warranted it will be performed to estimate pollutant concentrations in the vicinity of the intersections not satisfying the screening threshold. Long-term operational emissions due to traffic generated in the project area, the combustion of natural gas, landscaping and maintenance activities will be calculated using the URBEMIS2007 model for the no-project scenario as well as two project alternatives. The changes in emissions due to the project alternatives will be compared to the SCAQMD Mass Daily thresholds to identify regional air quality impacts. The differences in emissions for each scenario will be analyzed. The application rrm , group ill 16 City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan c,ennng M•pronn n«people e�or' Approach of the SCAQMD LST thresholds to identify potential local air quality impacts from specific projects that may be implemented as a result of the plan will be discussed. Measures will be developed to reduce significant air quality impacts to the extent possible. Cultural and Paleontological Resources. Applied Earthworks will be preparing the Cultural and Paleontological Resources section of the EIR. Their scope of services to complete a Cultural Resources study and provide guidance in the preparation of a planning document for the City of San Juan Capistrano in advance of amending the Historic Town Center Master Plan (HTC Master Plan) follows. The currently proposed planning zone is to be extended to include 7.5 acres in the City of San Juan Capistrano south of Mission San Juan, expanding on the existing planning area of 31 acres. The request for proposal requires that known and/or previously unidentified archaeological and historical resources within the expanded HTC Master Plan area be identified and evaluated and that potentially significant environmental impacts that may result from implementation of the HTC Master Plan be analyzed. The presence of paleontological resources is also to be considered. A variety of tasks are necessary for completion of a cultural resources study meeting California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) standards, including data collection and review, fieldwork, contact with Native American groups on behalf of the City, and preparation of a technical report. AE staff will also advise the team on cultural resources issues as they pertain to refinement of the existing base maps and amendment of the Master Plan. The pre-field data collection and review will include an update of the cultural resources records search at the South Central Coast Information Center at California State University, Fullerton, review of City documents as outlined in the RFP, previously compiled cultural resources studies, a paleontological records search at the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History, and historical background research at appropriate local repositories specific to the proposed planning zone. Fieldwork will include a pedestrian survey of the study area. A Sacred Lands File search will be initiated through the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) on behalf of the City of San Juan Capistrano. As necessary, consultation with appropriate agencies will be undertaken to comply with all applicable state laws, including, but not limited to CEQA and California Senate Bill 18. The findings of the above tasks and impact analysis shall be presented in a technical report prepared per accepted industry standards. Mitigation measures will be developed as needed and shall be summarized in the technical report. AE will also draft the cultural resources section for the EIR to be submitted to the principal contractor. k's staff includes historians, architectural historians, and archaeologists experienced in the research, identification, and documentation of historical and archaeological resources. M. Colleen Hamilton, M.A., RPA will act as Principal Investigator, Keith Warren as the Project Archaeologist, and Ms. Aubrie Morlet as the Project Architectural Historian. Mr. Warren will coordinate the field survey, research effort, and contact with NAHC. Ms. Morlet will complete the initial review of city documents and complete additional archival research as necessary. She will be responsible for assessing any standing structures that may potentially be affected by the project effort. Ms. Hamilton will coordinate with the project team regarding cultural resources issues as they relate to amending the Master Plan, rrm, ., group III cmatmg eKeimnmenU peopk enjoy' City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan 17 Approach affecting land use, and developing the project base maps. k has participated in similar projects and has undertaken extensive cultural resources assessment from initial site identification through data recovery to reduce impacts to a less than significant level as required by CEQA. These studies have included sites in close proximity to the study area including Mission San Fernando Rey de Esparta, (Mission Hills), Mission San Luis Obispo, Mission La Purisima Concepcion (Lompoc), and the Presidio at Santa Barbara. It is assumed that only the 7.5 acres to be added to the Master Plan area will require a field inspection for and identification of previously unrecorded archaeological and historical resources. It is also assumed that a full recordation of historic structures within the planning area will not be required. Rather available information will be relied upon for assessment of potential impacts. It is recognized, however, that a site visit of specific structures may be required. To this end, three days have been allotted to the architectural historian to visit the Historic Town Center and confirm previous recordation of significant structures. Work will commence upon notice to proceed and will be aggressively pursued according to the schedule developed by the project team in consultation with the City of San Juan Capistrano. Geology, Soils and Seismicity. NMG Geotechnical Inc. will complete a geology, soils and seismicity analysis for this EIR. NMG has performed numerous geotechnical investigations for Capistrano Unified School District in this area including the district office site; Serra High School; San Juan • Elementary School; Marco Forster Middle School; Kinoshita Elementary School; and Ambuehl Elementary School. All of these projects included subsurface investigation to determine geologic and groundwater conditions and assessment of geotechnical constraints and seismic exposure. Based on NMG's knowledge of the area, the primary geotechnical constraints at the sites are anticipated to include compressibility of near-surface soil; expansive near-surface soils; corrosive soil conditions; shallow groundwater; and seismic shaking and liquefaction potential. NMG will work closely with the project team and the City of San Juan Capistrano to address the geotechnical constraints that have potential impact to the proposed developments. The evaluation will be based on review of geotechnical data specific to the project site provided by the City of San Juan Capistrano, published documents that cover the sites, our in-house data from nearby projects, and discussions with personnel knowledgeable of the project sites. No subsurface investigation is anticipated to be conducted by NMG for this work. NMG will complete the following tasks: • Background Research: Background research will be conducted for the Town Center area, consisting of review of published and unpublished geotechnical data, maps, and reports pertinent to the site. This task also includes review of historical stereographic aerial photographs dating back to the early 1950s to evaluate the site history and geomorphic features. • Evaluation of Geotechnical Constraints: Evaluation of the collected data will be conducted to determine the geotechnical constraints that may impact the proposed development areas. This work includes discussion of general mitigation options for each constraint. rrm group ill 18 City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan c,.,rng�i,n, n„p Opte enjoy' Approach • Report Preparation: The report will include the geotechnical findings, conclusions, and a discussion of the geotechnical impacts, design issues and general mitigation measures related to the proposed development areas. Rincon will use the findings on NMG's geotechnical report to prepare the Geology, Soils and Seismicity section of the EIR. Global Climate Change. Rincon will complete a global climate change assessment for this EIR. The assessment of potential greenhouse gas and climate change impacts is an emerging CEQA topic that is quickly evolving. We are following the generally accepted analysis methodologies and significance thresholds and will apply the most current standards to the proposed project. In 2007, the California Air Pollution Control Officer's Association (CAPCOA) released a white paper entitled "CEQA& Climate Change: Evaluating and Addressing Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Projects Subject to The California Environmental Quality Act". Consistent with the approaches outlined in the CAPCOA paper, the analysis in this EIR will assess the GHG emissions from the development, as well as estimating the operational emissions associated with the development. It is important for the existing environment section to provide a good background on greenhouse gas generation, the fact that it is a global problem, and to identify on a large-scale basis the major sources of greenhouse gas emissions. The Global Climate Change analysis will summarize recent developments of the regulatory status of climate change legislation in the United States and California and new publications on the scientific understanding of climate change. Given the evolving nature of these materials, this analysis will only include the available documents at the time of our preparation given the scope of this work. Many gases make up the group of pollutants that are believed to contribute to the greenhouse effect. However, carbon dioxide (CO2) is the major pollutant of concern for greenhouse impacts. The URBEMIS model will be used to project CO2 emissions from electrical consumption, water usage, and natural gas combustion. Since there has not yet been any direction on the State or federal level regarding specific significance thresholds, we will work with the City to determine significance criteria that will provide thresholds for evaluating global climate change impacts. Practical mitigation measures will be identified, if warranted, to address any identified significant plan or cumulative impacts. Mitigation measures may include solid waste reduction measures, energy conservation measures, water conservation and efficiency measures, transportation measures, and requirements related to how buildings that may be constructed as part of the master plan are designed and maintained. Hazards and Hazardous Materials. The analysis of impacts relating to hazardous materials will be performed under the direction of Rincon's Registered Geologist/Certified Hydrogeologist. The analysis will include a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) that examines the potential for hazardous materials to be present on the site. The scope of work for Phase I ESAs is established rrm group Gki ^re•^e•^^°^mem,a.°aie Mi°r' City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan 19 Approach by ASTM standard 1527-05. The ESA, will involve a records search, general field reconnaissance, and interviews with knowledgeable parties. Findings of the ESA will used to form the basis for the hazards and hazardous materials section of the EIR. Rincon has considerable experience examine redevelopment of urban areas and conversion of historically commercial areas to residential use. As a result, Rincon has a very good understanding of the issues at hand and the mitigation requirements that may be required for the project. The focus of the hazard and hazard materials analysis will be on the potential for past uses to adversely impact construction and residential occupation phases of the project. The presence of hazardous constituents in the soils has the potential to affect the suitability of the site for residential use, construction methods and timing of development as well as human health and safety. Rincon will prepare the hazardous materials section of the EIR, which will evaluate potential threats to public health and safety from hazardous materials that could result from development within the plan area. Potential impacts will be evaluated in comparison to sig-nificance criteria, and performance standards and other practical mitigation measures will be prepared to mitigate identified significant impacts, where appropriate. Rincon's professionals hold the proper qualifications and certifications allowing us to complete the Phase I ESA to the ASTM 1527-05 standards. Hydrology and Water Quality. Rincon will prepare the hydrology and water quality analysis for the Draft EIR. The hydrology and water quality analysis will focus on the potential effects of this runoff and increased non-point source discharges such as parking lot and other urban runoff on downstream water quality. The analysis will be based on existing information sources, including but not limited to the applicant's preliminary grading plan and hydrology and drainage analysis, the City's Master Drainage Plan, and other hydrology studies that may be available for plan area. Regulations under the federal Clean Water Act and the State Water Resource Control Board require that the project comply with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). The proposed master plan will need to comply with Clean Water Act (NPDES) storm water permit requirements, including appropriate mitigation measures, termed Best Management Practices (BMPs), as outlined in the applicable Stormwater Quality Urban Impact Mitigation Plan (SQUIMP). Rincon will review any available studies, contact the City Engineer and flood control authorities, and Summarize the findings in the Hydrology and Water Quality section of the EIR. Specific tasks to be undertaken as part of this analysis include: • Site visit to review local drainage characteristics; • Review of any City-provided drainage and grading plans and hydrology/drainage report, as available; rrm :, group IN 20 City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan oenwy eowoomeots oeoWe enjoy' Approach • Review of literature sources and contact local authorities to establish existing storm flow and potential flooding through property and existing downstream drainage problems; • Assessment of impacts as a result of increased runoff from the site development; • Identification of potential drainage deficiencies associated with proposed drainage facilities; • Identification of feasible mitigation measures to avoid flooding impacts and retain increased project storm flows within the site; and • Review, assessment, and identification of feasible mitigation measures for proposed best management practices for stormwater quality management in accordance with applicable NPDES requirements. Land Use. The land use analysis will specifically consider if any specific restrictions need to be implemented to avoid physical and design conflicts between the proposed land uses. The land use section will also focus on the proposed project's relationship to local land use patterns. The section will include a brief discussion of existing and planned land uses in the plan area. Local land use trends and urban design principles will also be discussed. Existing on-site and surrounding land uses will be described and graphically mapped. Potential projects planned in the foreseeable future within and in the vicinity of the planning area will also be described as part of this task. The compatibility of the proposed project's land uses with existing and planned area land uses will be evaluated and described. Compatibility between land uses proposed within the plan area will also be evaluated. If necessary, mitigation measures will be recommended to reduce significant land use impacts to less-than-significant levels. Noise. Mestre Greve Associates will complete a noise analysis for this EIR. The project area is exposed to noise from trains on the rail line that runs along the western boundary of the project area, local traffic and commercial activities. Noise from traffic on the 1-5 freeway located to the east of the project area is audible in much of the project area and generally determines the background noise level. The focus of the noise assessment will be on how the project impacts traffic noise levels in the area around the project and how the rail line and other commercial noise sources may impact the residential uses of proposed mixed-use projects. Short-term noise measurements will be made at up to eight locations in and around the project area. In addition, noise measurements will be made within the project area to establish the noise levels from train operations. The measurements in conjunction with the FHWA highway noise model ("FHWA Highway Traffic Noise Prediction Model," FHWA-RD-77-108) will be used to describe existing noise levels in the project vicinity. Community noise standards relevant to this project are contained in the City of San Juan Capistrano Noise Element and Noise Ordinance. Standards for the jurisdiction will be summarized and their relevance to the project discussed. The potential noise impacts can be divided into short-term construction noise, impacts on surrounding land uses, and on-site noise/land use compatibility. As no specific projects will be proposed by the rim group III creating en-onmenU people enjoy' City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan 21 Approach s plan, potential construction noise impacts will be discussed generally. The types of construction equipment that may be used during demolition and construction activities and the noise levels generated by this equipment will be presented. Potential construction noise levels at nearby sensitive receptors will be examined. The application of the City Noise Ordinance to control construction noise will be discussed. The noise impacts associated with the project's traffic on adjacent land uses will be assessed in terms of the CNEL noise scale. The increase in noise levels due to the project and alternative over no project conditions will be determined. Areas that will experience a significant noise increase will be identified. For the project alternative scenarios, the absolute noise levels experienced in these areas will then be determined, and the resulting land use/noise compatibility discussed. Noise from operational activities at existing and proposed commercial uses potentially impacting existing and proposed noise sensitive uses will be assessed. Noise levels generated by outdoor activities including parking lot activities, restaurant operations, and mechanical equipment will be estimated at nearby sensitive receptors. Noise levels generated by the community center activities will be compared to the San Juan Capistrano Noise Ordinance criteria to determine impacts. Many recent town center plans have included opportunities for outdoor music at restaurants. This has resulted in a mixed response from the community. If this is proposed for the Town Center, the potential impacts will be evaluated and guidance will be provided for implementing this type of activity. Traffic and rail noise levels that impact the project site will also be assessed for compatibility with the proposed land uses for the proposed project and project alternative. Noise levels within the project area will be determined and compared to noise/land compatibility guidelines contained in the City of San Juan Capistrano Noise Element and/or the State Compatibility Guidelines. Mixed-use developments in town center areas provide unique challenges from a noise standpoint. Since a town center area is primarily a commercial district, few limits are usually imposed on their noise generation potential or hours of operation. Residents of the mixed-use projects will often complain about the noise. One approach is to require that residential uses be properly soundproofed. We will assess the potential for this conflict to arise and provide guidance to avoid incompatibilities. Preliminary noise barrier locations and other mitigation strategies will be identified as needed for the control of noise levels within the project site. Measures will be developed as necessary to mitigate off-site noise impacts. Population, Employment and Housing. The Population, Employment, and Housing section will document the area's existing population, employment, and housing characteristics in both a local (City of San Juan Capistrano) and regional (Orange County Council of Governments) context based upon available demographic and survey data. Rincon will assess the new population, employment, and housing impacts that would result from the development of the proposed project. Rincon will describe existing conditions in the City and County based on 2000 U.S. Census data and the most recent Orange County Council of Governments (OCCOG) projections available. We will also rrm group 22 City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan ...uU, .,Ie<^i^r Approach utilize data included in the General Plan EIR and Housing Element. Rincon will summarize relevant plans and policies related to housing and employment in the City, including policies related to affordable housing and jobs/housing balance. Rincon will assess the population, employment and housing impacts that would be created by the proposed project relative to the City's General Plan and SCAG's projections for population and employment and allocation of housing needs. Specific subtopics to be addressed include: 1) population growth; 2)job generation and economic development; 3) comparison of potential job generation with potential new housing; and 4) displacement or relocation of existing residents or businesses. All potential impacts will be evaluated in relation to existing city-wide population, employment and housing figures. Appropriate mitigation measures, if necessary, will be recommended to reduce any significant population, employment, and housing impacts to less-than-significant levels. Public Services and Utilities. Rincon will describe the existing utility infrastructure and public services that serve the City and plan area based on information included in previous studies, and information available from the utility providers and City service providers. The following utilities and services will be evaluated: schools, police, fire, recreation and parks, wastewater, stormwater and water. Rincon will work with City staff and representatives of each facility and service provider in analyzing each of these services. Implementation of the proposed Master Plan may result in an increase in the demand for public services and utilities. Rincon will evaluate impacts on each of the facility and service providers. The assessment will examine the demand for services generated by employment and residential growth at the site. Traffic and Circulation and Access. Urban Crossroads will prepare the traffic and circulation analysis for inclusion in the EIR. Please refer to Task III-B for a description of the traffic impact analysis for the project. Alternatives. Up to three alternatives to the proposed project will be identified and evaluated, one of which will be the CEQA-required No Project alternative. According to the CEQA Guidelines, alternatives can be evaluated in less detail than the project, and therefore it is proposed that the analysis in the EIR be undertaken at a qualitative level. CEQA-Required Conclusions. Rincon will prepare the appropriate conclusions to fulfill CEQA requirements by providing an assessment of several mandatory impact categories, including unavoidable significant environmental impacts, significant irreversible environmental changes, and effects found not to be significant. This chapter will also provide an assessment of growth-inducing rrm• _- group III treating environments,ende e^Iq' City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan 23 Approach impacts that could result from the proposed project. Deliverable Products: Rincon will assemble required EIR documentation as described above. III-B Traffic Impact Analysis Pursuant to CEQA and City requirements, a traffic impact analysis will need to be prepared to assess the impacts of the Amended Master Plan. Urban Crossroads will prepare the analysis as described below. Urban Crossroads is a consulting firm pre-approved by the City for preparation of traffic impact analyses and is currently retained by the City for traffic modeling services. Project Traffic Development/ Scoping Agreement Process • Develop project description and estimate project trip generation. This task will include reviewing the City traffic model and updating the input data to reflect the project build-out land use assumptions. • Determine project trip distribution. This data will be extracted from the City traffic model, using the updated data reflecting the project build-out land use assumptions. • Define the study area, including study intersections. It is assumed for purposes of this scope that the number of analysis locations (30) identified in the RFP will be adequate. • Identify cumulative projects and ambient growth patterns. Based upon review of other recent traffic studies prepared for project located in the City of San Juan Capistrano, it is assumed that up to 25 cumulative projects will be included in the analysis. • Prepare a draft scoping letter summarizing the traffic study scoping assumptions and submit it to the jurisdiction for review and approval. • Interface with jurisdiction staff to finalize the traffic study Scoping Agreement. Long-Range General Plan Build-out Traffic Projections • Prepare future long-range traffic forecasts representing the currently adopted land uses and circulation system for the project area. Forecasts will be based on the most current version of the San Juan Capistrano Traffic Model (SJCTM) tool. The traffic model input land use and highway network data will be reviewed with City staff to confirm the ongoing accuracy of information included within the model for the study area. • Extract and refine peak hour intersection turning movement volumes and daily roadway segment volume data from the traffic model for up to thirty (30) study area intersections and adjacent roadway segments. • Modify the model input data (land use and roadway network as necessary) to reflect the proposed build-out land use and roadway network for the project area. • Run the SJCTM to generate raw traffic data for the study area intersection locations for future long- range General Plan Build-out With Project conditions. • Refine the long-range General Plan Build-out With Project traffic forecasts for the study area intersection locations (peak hour turning movement forecasts) and roadway segments (daily traffic volumes) based on existing peak hour traffic count data and raw model output data. • Review and refine the initial General Plan Build-out With Project estimates of the peak hour rrm ._ group 24 City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan e�abne enwmnments ce•aie enjoy' Approach intersection turning movement volumes and daily roadway segment volumes based on various reasonableness checks, including review of growth compared to interim year (cumulative development) traffic conditions, traffic flow conservation and peak-to-daily volume relationships. Operations Analysis Analysis will be conducted at up to thirty (30) existing/future study area intersections for the following traffic conditions: to Existing o Existing plus Project o Long-Range General Plan Build-out Conditions Without Project o Long-Range General Plan Build-out Conditions With Project • Assess the intersection Level of Service (LOS) for the existing/future study area intersections, for each of the traffic conditions described previously.Analysis will include intersection capacity utilization (ICU) analysis and Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) analysis at each of the intersections. Additionally, "Hot Spot" (Synchro) analysis that includes more detailed evaluation of the interactions between closely spaced intersections is anticipated at up to 15 of the analysis locations. • Evaluate daily roadway segment volume to capacity (V/C) ratios for all of the arterial roadway segments within the study area. • Recommend intersection and roadway segment improvements that would achieve acceptable intersection performance at the study intersections and on the study area roadway segments for each of the future traffic conditions described previously. • Calculate the project's fair share of intersection improvement costs based on the project's percentage of the additional traffic at each study intersection. • Assess project access and on-site circulation, including the accommodation of alternatives modes of transport, including pedestrians, bicycles, and transit (on the adjacent arterial roadway system). Project Alternatives Analysis Provide qualitative analysis/ discussion of up to two additional project alternatives that will be developed by the Project Team as part of the overall work effort. The alternatives analysis will include qualitative discussion of changes in trip generation, trip distribution, and traffic volumes for each of the project alternatives. The qualitative analysis will also identify anticipated changes in project impacts (if any) compared to the primary project alternative and the No Project alternative. Deliverable Products: Urban Crossroads will prepare a Transportation Analysis Study report which incorporates the findings and all supporting calculations as described above. Three copies (two bound and one unbound) of the report will be provided. Review City comments and make minor revisions to the traffic study report. Up to two review cycles are anticipated. III-C Additional Transportation Analysis (Optional) In the event the preferred Master Plan entails revisions to the Orange County Master Plan of Arterial io rrm group III creating environmen«ce•Pk entry' City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan 25 Approach Highways (MPAH), the following scope of work and associated professional fees represent the optional services necessary to complete the MPAH amendment process with the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA). For purposes of this proposal, it has been assumed that the consultation with OCTA included in II-B will result in mutual agreement that the desired amendment can be processed administratively (e.g., the documentation developed as part of the overall process will demonstrate that any proposed changes to the MPAH will not result in any significant adverse impacts to the MPAH system and that adequate capacity and levels of service will be provided by the amended system). If a cooperative study process is determined to be necessary, this would constitute additional work that would require further authorization by the City of San Juan Capistrano. Cumulative Growth (Interim Year) Future Traffic Projections and Analysis • Estimate the trip generation and determine the trip distribution of other cumulative developments in the study area, based on data provided by jurisdiction staff for up to twenty-five (25) cumulative developments. The number of cumulative projects is based upon review of data included in other recently completed traffic studies in the study area. • Calculate cumulative development future peak hour turning movement volumes, for up to thirty (30) existing/future intersections. • Calculate cumulative future average daily traffic(ADT) volumes on study area roadway segments. • Evaluate Existing Plus Project Plus Cumulative Growth Traffic Operations for peak hour (intersection operations) and daily (roadway segment operations) conditions. MPAH Amendment Process (Administrative) • Prepare and submit a written request describing the proposed amendment(s), including documentation as to the merits of the request, to the OCTA and concurrently to the City Managers of adjoining cities and the Orange County Environmental Management Agency Director of Transportation. • Participate in a meeting with OCTA(and representatives from adjacent jurisdictions, if necessary) to determine if the change is an "administrative" change or will require a cooperative study process (it has been assumed that the result of this meeting will be the determination that any proposed changes to the MPAH are administrative in nature). • Subsequent to City adoption of the General Plan Amendment (GPA) that includes changes to the MPAH, submit appropriate GPA and supporting CEQA documentation as required by the OCTA guidelines to OCTA. • Attend one (1) OCTA Board hearing to support adoption of the MPAH amendment by the OCTA Board. Deliverable Products: Urban Crossroads will prepare Cumulative Growth (Interim Year) Future Traffic Projections and Analysis to augment the Transportation Analysis Study report and provide administrative support for the MPAH amendment process. rrm : group ill 26 City of San Juan Capistrano I Historic Town Center Master Plan smad� en—onmenss people error' Approach Phase IV — Review and Approval/Project Coordination IV-A Prepare Amended Master Plan — Public Hearing Draft In this task, the Administrative Draft will be finalized into the Public Hearing Draft based on City comments received.

Tasks include compiling data related to additional transportation systems, including public transit, bicycle, pedestrian, truck, etc. Planning issues associated with the existing conditions described above have been identified. Existing parking demand has been evaluated, including identification of parking deficiencies, any under-utilized facilities, and potential parking opportunities/strategies for future development. Three alternative Concept Plan scenarios were evaluated in terms of network connectivity and opportunities for alternative travel modes. Next steps Include assessment of shared parking opportunities for the new performing arts facility and traffic impact analysis of the Yorba Linda Town Center project.

The Noise Assessment included a noise measurement survey, projection of highway noise levels using the FHWA Highway Noise Model and noise barrier design analysis to mitigate potential noise impacts. A detailed analysis of existing and proposed noise mitigation was completed for representative receptor locations. The local and regional air quality impacts of the proposed project were also assessed and mitigation strategies identified. Mestre Greve Associates worked closely with both The Irvine Company and the City of Irvine to insure that noise and air quality environmental concerns were completely addressed, as The Irvine Company sought to have the area re-zoned to accommodate the planned uses within the project. The Noise and Air Quality assessments were completed in June 2006.

While the project did not increase the school's enrolment, it proposed increases in the classroom space from 157,731 gross square feet to 224,708 gross square feet and the campus from 17.5 acres to 26.6 acres. The noise assessment examined potential noise impacts arising from construction of the project and the potential noise impacts on the proposed uses from traffic noise on adjacent roads. Mitigation included restriction of construction hours and performance standards for interior classroom noise levels. The Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Assessment presented an emissions inventory for construction and the net change in emissions due to the project. The calculated emissions were compared to the SCAQMD Significance Thresholds and no significant impacts were identified. The Noise and Air Quality Assessments were completed in October 2008.

The Specific Plan Area encompasses approximately 225-acres of centrally located land and is intended to establish a residential, business, cultural, social, and governmental Downtown center for the City of Marina. The project involves extensive community outreach to help guide the Specific Plan. Among the key issues include the possible narrowing of a major thoroughfare through the City's center.

San Juan Capistrano Updating of the Historic Town Center Master Plan Dear Douglas: We are honored to submit this proposal to The City of San Juan Capistrano to update the Historic Town Center Master Plan. Our team has been assembled specifically to provide the leadership, strategy and execution in the areas of Land Use Planning, Urban Design, Economic and Finan- cial Strategy, and Environmental Planning Services. All great cities have that special neighborhood or place that reflects the city's charm, character and identity. The proposed planning area will represent the future for generations to come, enhancing the Mission and historic district as the city's defining place. The City of San Juan Capistrano has that rare opportunity to assist in fulfilling the needs of the community and pos- sibly the wider area as a vital social gathering place and seamless village environment. As great as San Juan Capistrano's history is, its future can be even greater. The timing and relevance of the services outlined in this proposal is a testament to business, community and government leaders attempting to forge a new and lasting Master Plan, while simultaneously encouraging political consensus about community life. Our team, led jointly by Village Partners as mixed-use development advisors and Field Paoli as noted planners, archi- tects and urban designers, is very interested in presenting not just our credentials, but in ad- dition our relevant experience. We have worked in similar historic districts, creating plans that encompass visioning, outreach skills and consensus building. We are excited to share with you how our team is positioned differently from any other team to work effectively with you on this scope of services. The undertaking of this study is particularly significant in light of the current economic downturn, for two reasons. First, as land and property values fall, there is supportable evidence to suggest that this is less acute in areas which remain popular. A vibrant, active downtown center can pro- vide an economic stability, which underpins real estate value. Secondly, the Federal Gov- ernment has instituted promising funding mechanisms to help stimulate the US economy with significant investments in construction projects, particularly infrastructure projects that promote sustainable policies. This study has the potential to capture some of that invest- ment by demonstrating a firm commitment to creating a thriving model village with a strong sustainable overlay and an emphasis on walkability. Village Partners and Field Paoli have a good track record of working together on previous projects. Our core pairing is supplemented by a strong team of sub-consultants who have extensive knowledge of the project area and previous working relationships with each other. Two of its members, Edward A. de Avila of Village Partners and David J. Gilmour of Archi- tects Orange (formerly with NGPP), were part of the Technical Advisory Panel that studied the effects of the highway interchange proposals and provided strategies for the future. We have the experience and skills to make a compelling Historic Town Center Master Plan, both by bringing in the voices of the entire community on the vision, and by creating a realistic action plan. Our Master Plan will be grounded in the realities of the market and will result in realistic recommendations for implementation strategies. This is exactly the kind of project that suits our skills best, and it would be a distinct honor to assist The City of San Juan Cap- istrano in the creation of this plan. On behalf of our team, we look forward to meeting with the Selection Committee on Wednes- day, November 18 and discussing our capabilities and proposed scope of services. We think that it is important to tell you that we have estimated our fees based upon our understanding of the scope that you have requested and we certainly are open to discussing both the scope and proposed fees with you whenever you think it would be appropriate.

CALIFORNIA Field Paoli has been working with the City of San Jose on a variety of plans and strategies. For the Greater Downtown Strategy, Field Paoli developed alternative ' f plans for several sites. One of the larger sites is the North Gateway, which is at the northern edge of the commercial heart of the Downtown. The alternatives explore the creation of a primarily office campus with the inclusion of retail shops in new and renovated " buildings. For the area called South First Area SOFA fq�s' ,�:t �4 an upcoming arts and entertainment district located on the south-west side of Downtown, Field Paoli created a Strategic Development Plan that serves an action guide for development.

We see this project as an exceptional opportunity to partner with the City and local stakeholders to clarify a vision for the future of San Juan Capistrano's historic downtown and to produce a plan that will provide the framework that will allow for the implementation of the vision. This is an extraordinary opportunity to develop a land use strategy for guiding the future development of one of Southern California's most historically significant districts. Downtown San Juan Capistrano already possesses many attributes required for the development of a vibrant traditional town setting including diverse land uses located within convenient walking distance from one another, well established cultural, historic, and civic institutions that are embedded within the village-scaled fabric, regional multimodal transportation connections, streets that accommodate both pedestrian and automobile traffic, and a strong sense of place and identity. This effort will focus on producing a development concept that will both fully leverage, and enhance these attributes. Our combined experience in architecture and urbanism over the past two decades is based on mixed- use, pedestrian-oriented development that affirms the local community. We are practicing architects as well as urban designers, and have completed many award-winning buildings under our own specific plans. This experience allows us to understand the issues of developing an implementable plan. Our team has extensive experience in the planning, design, and development of projects within traditional town settings in both California and throughout the United States including Orange, Camarillo, Pasadena, San Luis Obispo, Santa Rosa, Laguna Beach, and Santa Fe, New Mexico. We feel that the entirety of Downtown San Juan Capistrano (31 acres) is of sufficient size and prominence and feel that the best results occur when the basic fundamentals of place creation are applied in a holistic manner as opposed to a site—specific remedy. This approach is critical if redevelopment is to spread beyond the immediate site and improve an entire community. Our planning approach, whether dealing with a small parcel or large district, is to understand the context and to identify and understand its inherent strengths that can be found in its existing urban pattern and architecture. This is most readily accomplished by the creation or refinement of site plans that are tied to new codes and regulations. These two activities promote the expansion of a city's strengths and jump-start the redevelopment process when applied together resulting in growth and economic development for the project area and beyond. The successful redevelopment of Old Pasadena and st u iID(DGt even — 1 — al Perkowla�Pulh ArAilocls PROPOSAL FOR LAND PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES FOR UPDATING AND AMENDING THF HISTORIC TOWN CENTER MASLER PLAN NOVEM5FR ... .... Downtown San Luis Obispo are examples of this approach. As is always the case, accommodating automobile travel and the provision of parking is critical to the plan's success. Understanding the techniques necessary to both preserve and add parking within a district that is convenient to its users in such a way that it does not dominate the physical landscape, and to accommodate the access and mobility needs to local stakeholders and visitors alike through a multimodal approach are among our team's key strengths. We are expert practitioners of the public outreach process that involves an open public process. This process is critical in producing planning concepts and policies that adequately and accurately reflect the desires, concerns, and needs of stakeholders. This process also enables us to produce the required planning documents within a compressed time frame. A charrette-based planning effort is also effective in building a collective interest and obtaining consensus in the project given the diverse group of local stakeholders that often have conflicting needs or expectations. Our team is comprised entirely of local firms located within Los Angeles and Orange Counties resulting in the efficient delivery of the produced work that will meet the city's scope, schedule, and budget goals. The following proposal shall remain valid for a period of 90 days from the submittal date. We are very pleased to have the opportunity to work with you on such a critical project. We look forward to collaborating with the city, its residents, and stakeholders to develop a cohesive land use and transportation strategy for Downtown San Juan Capistrano and its vicinity.

Ocean Blvd., 21 st Floor Long Beach, CA 90802 t 562.901.1500 f 562.901.1501 www.studio-111.com info@studio-111.com studiOOQleven a1 PeM1owiliPu1A2i1K,s —2— B, Approach w t -- B_PROJtCT APPROACH Historic Town Center Master Plan Revision Project Understanding The following planning and design challenges have been identified by our team after reviewing the RFP and visiting the project site. 1. Revised Master Plan According to the City of San Juan Capistrano's October 6, 2009 Community Redevelopment Agency Agenda Report, the city desires to revise the existing 1995 Historic Town Center Master Plan in order to"reflect the business conditions and changing environment that has evolved over the past 14 years." The aim of this revision is to "retain the Master Plan's overall goals and objectives and focus on refinements to create a relevant master plan that (is) implementable." While the Master Plan's goals and objectives may still accurately reflect the desires and wishes of the community for downtown San Juan Capistrano, the Master Plan does not contain a policy or regulatory framework that can effectively accommodate meaningful redevelopment activity or attract private investment that will help achieve these goals. The success of a planning document is measured by its ability to guide and facilitate growth or accommodate changes within a specific area. In order for this to happen, the revised Master Plan should include the implementation of development standards or codes that sufficiently clarify or deregulate the development process to allow for desired projects to be developed by-right rather than through a conditional use process. 2. Master Plan vs. Specific Plan The state of California gives local planning agencies the ability to develop specific plans to allow for the systematic implementation of the city's adopted general plan for specific parts of a city. The existing Master Plan was developed to assure consistency with the General Plan, but it does not clarify how the general plan will be implemented within the downtown given the area's unique characteristics, uses, and infrastructure. Additionally, the preparation and adoption of a specific plan will allow the city to defray the plan's cost by assessing a special fee on proposed projects that are required to be consistent with the specific plan. (California Government Code Sec. 65456 (a)). We would like to discuss the merits for the Master Plan approach and the Specific Plan approach for the purpose of identifying the most appropriate approach to address the community's needs. For example, the Master Plan itself doesn't have the regulatory force of the Specific Plan but Specific Plan law requires more components and for those components to be addressed to a level of detail and expense for an area that is not large and, that may not have significantly different results from the Master Plan. Based on these questions we have of the City, we would like to discuss options such as a hybrid approach where we provide the regulatory force through corresponding zoning and requirements that directly implement the updated Master Plan. 3. Expand the Planning Area The current Town Center Master Plan prepared in 1995 focuses on a 7.5 acre project area located directly south of Ortega Highway from the Mission. This is not adequate for producing an implementable planning document that adequately reflects the community's needs and desires. The planning area must consist of the 31 acres referred to in the introduction of the RFP. Another approach would be to include all areas contained within a defined radius of the intersection of Camino Capistrano and Ortega Highway to include all of Downtown, the Mission and related church properties, the Depot studiOOOleven f T/ 00 '.

R PRO JF CT APPROACH line just to name a few. These projects will need to be incorporated into a revised master plan in order to adequately address their impacts and to use them as a strategic advantage to support future development opportunities. 5. Take advantage of Catalytic Projects Downtown San Juan Capistrano's redevelopment should be planned around the development of key planned projects that are designed to create increased local economic activity and attract new investment. These projects vary in scale and intensity, but should be planned and implemented in such a way as to take advantage of downtown's existing opportunities and further district wider redevelopment rather than project-specific implementation. Examples of such project may include: • Streetscape and urban design projects that help improve functional linkages between the Mission San Juan Capistrano and the Basilica and other parts of downtown. This project can help extend the experience of visiting the Mission and thereby increase the length of stay and amount of spending within downtown. • Development of parking facilities and programs that provide a sufficient amount of conveniently located parking to meet the needs of current and future downtown uses, and that manage parking within the district in order to assure its efficient use. These strategies may include the implementation of a park-once district, allow for shared use parking for applicable land uses, and implementation of pricing policies. • Improved access between downtown destinations and transit facilities such as the Santa Fe Depot The development of a destination hotel should be accompanied by related public improvements that will help integrate the hotel within downtown rather than it being developed as a stand-alone project. • Carefully designed and located housing or mixed use projects that help establish a residential community within downtown and create street life that support local businesses. 6. Take advantage and enhance the strong local sense of place The Mission, Basilica, Historic Train Depot, Los Rios District, architecturally significant structures, and natural setting all contribute to producing San Juan Capistrano's strong sense of place. Visitors to Capistrano know that they have arrived in a special and unique place compared to the ubiquitous suburban sprawl and homogenous architecture found in neighboring cities. Additionally Downtown San Juan Capistrano posesses a level of authenticity that is unique from other cities. Future development concepts should focus on strengthening the local identity and entry experience. 7. Developing a multimodal circulation strategy that fully takes advantage of regional vehicular and transit facilities Improving access between Interstate 5 and Downtown San Juan Capistrano is of high importance. Specific attention needs to be given to planning a strategy that will assist Downtown in benefitting from the proposed Ortega Highway interchange project. However, an equal amount of attention should be focused planning for the convenient movement of people by other modes of transportation including rail and bus transit, walking, and bicycling. 8. Define open space and pedestrian linkages The planning and design of great districts depends equally on the architecture of individual buildings and the design of the public spaces and landscape defined by the buildings. Place making based on a studiQQQleven —7 — a,Palk—t-RU,k Art M,•c,a PROPOSAL FOR LAND PLANNING AND ENVIRONIOLIRTAL SERVICES POR UPDATING AND AMENDING THE HISTORIC TOWN CENTER MASTER PLAN NOVEMBER 12, 2009 continuous system streetscape and open space system should be a principal design goal. 9. Promote adaptive reuse of existing buildings The unique architecture and historic significance of many buildings within Downtown will require a redevelopment strategy that focuses in the reuse of these structures rather than their clearance. 10. Understanding market conditions when designing buildings to accomodate various uses such as retail, housing, office, or hospitality is vital. Issues such as loading, building depths, and adequate frontages impact the viability and private sector interest in the project area. Scope of Work The work program required to adequately update the Historic Town Center Master Plan will be carried out in a multi-disciplinary approach with Studio 111 serving as the lead member of the planning and design team and providing overall project management. Studio 111's work will be supplemented by a talented consultant team that will provide specialized services in the following areas: Raimi Associates Master plan revision Land use analysis Development standards/codes Transtech, Inc. Project Management Transportation planning Civil engineering Keyser Marston Associates Economic and implementation analysis Templeton Planning Group EIR preparation Rabben/Herman Design Group Landscape architecture Our proposed process is closely based on the minimum scope of work attached to the RFP. All additional tasks that we deem essential in completing the project are identified as "supplemental" and are not included in the base project budget. We propose a three-phased process consisting of: 1. Information Collection and Review III. Preparation of Amended Master Plan 111. Review and Approval of Amended Master Plan I. Information Collection and Review A. Data Collection and Review—Due Diligence Appropriate members of the consultant team will meet with city staff to collect existing city documentation pertinent to this project included documents listed in the RFP and additional documents as necessary.

PROJECI APPROACH The team will meet with city staff to review project goals and objectives; project management processes; establish the project's budget, scope, and schedule; and format of required deliverables. Data collection to be performed as part of this phase includes: • Local plans and policies • Relevant planning documents and studies • Staff reports • Demographic and economic data • Business and employment data • Project site tour and photo documentation Supplemental Tasks • Interview of key local stakeholders and residents • Collection of transportation, market, or socio-economic data that is not readily available from the city or requires survey of existing conditions. Deliverables • Briefing book containing summary of data collection, meeting recordings, tour observations, photo documentation, and a revised project schedule B. Mapping and Document Format Project team members will work with city staff to clarify the revised Master Plan's project limits in order to produce a suitable base map from which the revised Master Plan will be developed. This base map will be limited to the existing 31 acre planning area and include the required information contained within the RFP including property lines, street locations, existing development areas, public utilities, and transportation infrastructure. It is assumed that the city will provide available digital mapping in a GIS format with the required information. Deliverables • Base map • Aerial photography of project area— Google Earth • Opportunities and constrains exhibit • Revised Master Plan text and figures Supplemental Tasks • Project base map for the expanded 31 acre project area • Civil-level base mapping to include precise location of existing structures, utility lines, easements, property lines, etc • Land survey work • Site-specific aerial photography II — Prepare Amended Master Plan Team members will work collaboratively with city staff to modify the Master Plan to include the required revisions and analysis of land uses, built-out assumptions, transportation and parking, and local market studiO(Weven g— a,Perko 11 fluIM1 ArtM1INOc and economic conditions. This revision will also include preliminary development guidelines that are consistent with the general plan and will help achieve the Master Plan's goal and objectives. The base scenario includes a pre-outreach meeting with the City to understand technical related issues such as economics and traffic. Next, an meeting will be an outreach meeting that includes key stakeholders as determined by the City is included. The information gained from outreach will provide the vision for the plan. The team will then prepare and amend the plan for city review and approval known as design solution refinement. �dhFoeb play ��� Meetings Supplemental Activities Due to the increased project area, the team suggests a more intensive approach as a supplemental scenario. The pre-outreach and outreach meetings would remain and be followed by a four day workshop to share solutions directly with the City and other key stakeholders resulting in a vision plan. This would be followed by three workshops with various City Departments in order to further refine the work and confirm agency approval and implementation strategies. 11*7 ,M r y Vt+ron �r t wF+k� � ■f°" na„ Meetings The workshops will focus on specific factors relevant to the 31-acre project area including but riot limited to identifying a clearly defined vision for the master plan area, urban design and streetscapes, transportation and multimodal connections, architecture and building uses, and development standards. Certain members of the consultant team will participate in the designated work sessions in order to coordinate their specific areas into the overall plan. These concepts will be analyzed as they are developed to assure that they are consistent with the market and economic analysis. These work sessions can be open to city staff, property owners, residents, and the general public, including prospective developers, at the discretion of the city. The design solution workshop will take place over the course of five days with an initial kick-off or s u d i 0O 0l even .,,,_.. - 10 - B. PROA CT APPROACH visioning meeting taking place on a Tuesday evening and a wrap-up session taking place on a Friday afternoon or Saturday morning. The team will work with the city to finalize the schedule so that it maximizes opportunities for participation. This process should take place within a local venue of suitable size to accommodate a work area for the design team and meeting space for the community workshops. Deliverables • Administrative draft master plan • Landscape Architecture including plan material pallete for public space and streetscape guidelines • Urban design and specific plan visioning • Pedestrian, bicycle, and transit linkages III. Review and Approval/Project Coordination Team members will work with city staff to assure that all questions and concerns raised by city staff and officials, and the general public are adequately addressed in the draft master plan's subsequent revisions. It is anticipated that the adoption of the revised master plan will require the production of an initial administrative draft for the city's review, a public hearing draft(that incorporates the city comments)for public review and a final master plan for adoption by the city council. Supplemental Tasks The scope of services does not identify if members of the consultant team will be required to attend master plan public hearing or city council meetings and requires further discussion. { studiOOQleven — a,Rerk,w,tz Ruth Arthi,rtlz R PROJECT APPROACH CEQA Review of Amended Historic Town Center Master Plan Project Understanding The San Juan Capistrano Community Redevelopment Agency ("Agency') is seeking proposals from consulting firms to amend the 1995 Historic Town Center("HTC") Master Plan. The existing HTC Master Plan covers an area of 7.5 acres located south of Mission San Juan. The project area includes Mission San Juan Capistrano, the San Juan Capistrano train depot, the EI Adobe Restaurant, Historic Town Center Park, and is primarily developed with commercial uses. The San Juan Capistrano Chamber of Commerce Economic Development("ED") Committee in conjunction with the Mayor's sub-committee reviewed the HTC Master Plan and determined that the Land Plan Concept needed to be updated to reflect the business conditions and changing environment that has evolved over the past 14 years. Therefore, the project will amend the plan adopted in 1995 and is expected to include a significant hotel component, mixed used developments, increased parking and improved pedestrian opportunities through modifications to several streets in the project area. The HTC planning area is proposed to be expanded to an approximate 31 acre area. Given the large size of this property and the range of environmental sensitivities on and near the project site, the Agency has determined that this project has the potential to result in significant impacts on the environment. Pursuant to Section 15168 of the CEQA Guidelines, the City is seeking the services of qualified environmental professionals to prepare a Program Environmental Impact Report ("EIR") to provide the public and the City's decision makers with a thorough, objective and well reasoned analysis of the project's environmental consequences and a menu of feasible measures that would mitigate significant impacts. Future projects submitted in accordance with the approved master plan would be eligible for a streamlined environmental review, pursuant to Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines. Only projects which do not conform to the approved master plan or which involve new environmental impacts and/or new mitigation measures would necessitate subsequent environmental analysis, such as a Subsequent EIR or a Negative Declaration. • Based on our knowledge of the area and research of existing documentation, the following issues will require particular attention in the EIR: • Traffic. impacts associated increased traffic and the effects of the proposed 1) future extension of Forster Lane, 2) closure of EI Camino Real, 3) narrowing of Ortega Highway and 4) extension of Ortega Highway. Traffic safety associated with traffic bicycle and pedestrian circulation. • Availability of parking and meeting future parking demand. • Consistency with regional and local plans and policies, as well as, compatibility with the surrounding business • Potential aesthetic impacts resulting from alteration of the visual character of the site and impacts to view from important existing vantage points, including the 1-5, surrounding local streets and Historic Town Center Park. Potential air quality and noise impacts due to increased traffic and increased activity at the site. 3 studiQQGteven 1 Perk 0wll[IPu1F Arc Mlect, PROPOSAL FOR LAND PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES FOR UPDATING AND AMENDING THE HISIORIC I OWN CENTER MASTER PI AN NOVEMBER IL 2009 Project Approach Our approach to the preparation of the EIR will be to independently examine all issues with a constant eye to optimize public input, throughout the process. We intend to establish credibility with the community and with the City immediately, and to maintain that credibility throughout our involvement. This will be achieved in several ways, including: (1) Communicating clearly and often; with the City and the community; (2) Providing accurate and useful information that facilitates focused discussions of the project's environmental consequences; (3) Identifying both the positive qualities of proposed planning concepts or mitigation strategies and the environmental disadvantages associated with those concepts/strategies so that decision-makers can better understand the trade-offs involved in various decisions; and (4) Being flexible enough to respond quickly to unexpected circumstances, such as unscheduled requests to attend meetings or to provide information on a specific topic for a special briefing to a City Councilmember, Planning Commissioner, or community group. It is anticipated that the EIR Consultant will be called upon to attend numerous public meetings to assist City staff in discussing environmental issues and in explaining the requirements of CEQA as it applies to this project. It is incumbent upon the EIR Consultant, therefore, to make sure that the EIR is not only technically sufficient, but well presented. As evidenced by the information contained in this proposal, the Templeton Planning Group ("TPG") and EIR project team have the expertise necessary to complete the EIR for the development of the • proposed HTC Master Plan. We look forward to utilizing our experience and expertise to bring about the time efficient and thorough completion of the Program EIR for the proposed project. Scope of Services The Program Environmental Impact Report ("EIR") will be prepared in conformance with the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), the State CEQA Guidelines, and City of San Juan Capistrano "Local Guidelines for Implementing the California Environmental Quality Act." The scope of the EIR will be prepared based on the Initial Study prepared for the proposed project. Each item identified as a "potentially significant impact" on the Initial Study checklist will be supported by analysis and discussion. The determination of significance will be based on guidelines established by the City's adopted Environmental Review Guidelines, and/or Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines. The contents of the EIR and the methodology for its preparation are as follows: TASK A. PROJECT INITIATION Task Al: Kick-off Meeting Templeton Planning Group will meet with the City and the development team to discuss the CEQA process. We will prepare an agenda for this meeting and bring a draft NOP for discussion (see Task A7, below). studiOOOteven a,Ge,4o}r�Ru11A,cfi,etlz — 14- B PROJFCI APPROACH Task A2: Field Reconnaissance Templeton Planning Group will take photographs and conduct a site visit with the development team and the Agency, as necessary. Task A3: Data Gathering and Evaluation Templeton Planning Group will review all available information, including, but not limited to: • 1984 Historic Town Center Plan EIR • 1995 Historic Town Center Master Plan • Congleton/Burba Marketing Analysis of the Historic Town Center Master Plan • ULI's 2008 TAP report • Fehr and Peers 2008 Downtown Parking Study • 1-5/Ortega Highway Interchange improvements documentation • General Plan and EIR • Zoning Ordinance Task A4: Base Map Preparation As part of Task A7, below, Templeton Planning Group will prepare a base map and vicinity map of the project site for use in the EIR and Master Plan update. Task A5: Project Description A detailed project description will be prepared consistent with the RFP as part of Task C1. Task A6: Significance Criteria Significance criteria will be prepared consistent with the RFP as part of Task C1. Task AT Initial Study and Notice of Preparation Brief, written responses will be prepared for all items included on the City's standard Initial Study checklist. Since it is anticipated that an EIR will be prepared, each response will explain the basis for the "No Impact," "Less Than Significant Impact," "Less Than Significant with Mitigation Incorporation," or"Potentially Significant Impact" response and will clearly indicate why a particular issue would not result in a significant impact and does not require further evaluation. Those issues that do require further analysis in an SEIR will also be discussed including identification of the issues to be addressed in the SEIR. A complete list of reference sources used to prepare the Initial Study will be provided. A summary of the comments received at the public scoping meeting will be included in the Initial Study as an attachment, to bring community input directly into this official scoping document. Where appropriate, checklist responses will contain references to specific scoping meeting comments. A Notice of Preparation (NOP) will be prepared, using the City's standard form. A copy of the Initial . Study will be attached to provide an immediate explanation of the preliminary scope of issues to be C studi000leven 1 J - a1 Per4awi,e.flu,h Pr,hftds PROPOSAL FOR LAND PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENFAL SERVICES FOR UPDATING AND AMENDING THF HISTORIC TOWN CFNTER MASTER PI AN NOVEMBER 7?, 2009 included in the EIR. After City approval of the NOP, TPG will copy and distribute the NOP to state and local agencies, surrounding property owners and other special interest groups or individuals identified by the City. A brief cover letter will be prepared to explain the purpose and content of the NOP and to clearly identify the time period, contact person and address established for submitting responses. Task AB: Public Scoping Meeting TPG will assist the City in organizing and conducting one public scoping meeting to present the main characteristics of the proposed HTC Master Plan and to solicit comments regarding the scope and content of the environmental issues to be addressed in the EIR. Pre-meeting assistance will include scheduling the meeting, preparing public notices and agendas for City staff review, and mailing and publishing the final notices. Addresses of surrounding property owners and residents to receive copies of the NOP notice will be provided by the City. At the meeting, we will be prepared to discuss the environmental review process and to answer specific questions, as desired by the City. If requested, we will also prepare informational items to be distributed at the meeting, such as: Flowchart defining the entire environmental review process, highlighting opportunities for public input; • Selected reduced-sized copies of applicant's master plan exhibits and textual summary of project • characteristics; • Questionnaire designed to obtain focused responses to identify environmental concerns Preparation of a Powerpoint Presentation. It is recommended that the scoping meeting be held as soon as possible, so the results can be included in the Initial Study and Notice of Preparation. A written summary of environmental issues raised at the meeting and how the issues will be addressed will be prepared. Task A9: Work Program Refinement Following the scoping meeting and NOP public review period, Templeton Planning Group will meet with the Agency and development team to discuss any necessary refinements to the proposed project. If necessary, we will present the refined work program and budget for review and approval to the Redevelopment Manager. TASK B. PLANNING POLICY ANALYSIS Templeton Planning Group will prepare a planning policy analysis throughout the EIR. Relevant local and regional planning documents will be discussed under the "General Information" section of the EIR as discussed under Task C1, below. Consistency with plans and programs will be discussed in the Land Use and Planning section discussed under Task C1, below. TASK C. SETTING, IMPACTS, AND MITIGATION MEASURES Task C1: Screencheck Draft Environmental Impact Report studieQG[even c a,P<,Naw,IrvRNh ArcRrletla - 16- B PROJECT APPROACH General Information In accordance with Article 9 of the CEQA Guidelines, the EIR will include a summary, description of the project, environmental setting, significance criteria, potential program level environmental impacts, and mitigation measures for any significant effects. The EIR will also address consistency of the proposed project with adopted plans and policies. Discussion of Environmental Evaluation The EIR will be clearly written and will avoid the use of technical jargon so that the document is easily understood. Thresholds of significance will be identified for each impact category based on City standards and/or Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines. If technical terms need to be introduced for accuracy, they will be clearly defined. The analysis of issues will be thorough, yet concise. We will formulate mitigation measures which can be easily implemented relating directly to the primary and secondary effects Identified in the Impact sections of the document. All environmental categories will be addressed; however, the EIR will focus on the following areas: Aesthetics Project implementation will alter the visual appearance of the site. In addition, the project site is visible from multiple public vantage points and will affect views from several important areas. Templeton Planning Group will perform the following tasks to determine potential aesthetic impacts associated with the project: • Document aesthetically significant viewsheds from the adjacent areas by taking panoramic photographs of the project site. • Review the proposed design for its aesthetic quality in relation to existing and proposed uses and adjacent roadways. Incorporate renderings, view simulations, and elevations to be provided by the architect. • Discuss any potentially significant aesthetic impacts associated with project implementation including increased light and glare. Specify mitigation measures that will reduce all identified impacts to the maximum extent feasible. Measures could include landscaping, setbacks, or alternative grading to reduce the visual impact of the project. Air Quality The proposed activities associated with the short- and long-term operation of land uses within the plan area (i.e. potential demolition, project construction and build-out) have the potential to generate fugitive dust, stationary source emissions, and vehicular emissions. TPG will also analyze the potential long- term impacts of the project resulting from changes to project traffic levels. To accurately assess the potential impacts to air quality, Mestre Greve Associates will prepare a detailed report. The results, findings and recommendations will be incorporated into the EIR, and the study will be included in its entirety as an appendix. Mestre Greve Associates will perform the following tasks: • Existing Air Environment. The existing air environment will be described in terms of meteorology, local topography affecting pollutant dispersion, and ambient air monitoring data. A summary of current air management efforts, which may be related to the proposed project, will be provided with particular emphasis on the 2007 AQMP, and the requirements for air quality assessments identified in the SCAQMD's CEQA handbook. Sensitive receptor areas within the project vicinity will be identified. studiGOGteven - t 7- el Pe,kowrri-flue FrcMlecs PROPOSAL f OR IAND PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES EOR UPDATING AND AMENDING THE HISTORIC IOWN CFNEER MASTER PLAN NOVEMRFP 12, 2009 • Potential Impacts. The air quality impacts of the proposed project can be divided into short- term construction, local impacts, and long-term regional air pollution increases.As no specific projects will be identified by the Plan, potential short-term air quality impacts from demolition and construction activities will be discussed generally. The application of the SCAQMD Localized Significance Thresholds (LST) thresholds to identify localized air quality impacts and Mass Daily thresholds to identify regional air quality impacts from construction will be discussed. Measures to reduce dust generation are required by the South Coast Air Quality Management District. Additionally, measures are contained in the 2007 AQMP for control of construction activity emissions, and these will be included in the list of mitigation measures. • Potential local air quality hot-spot impacts at intersections with traffic affected by the project will be examined. Changes in traffic resulting from the project that could cause or significantly contribute to an exceedance in the ambient air quality standards near an intersection will be identified. A qualitative screening threshold will be utilized to determine if detailed quantitative modeling is warranted to determine any potential hot-spot impacts. If modeling is warranted it will be performed to estimate pollutant concentrations in the vicinity of the intersections not satisfying the screening threshold. • Long-term operational emissions due to traffic generated in the project area, the combustion of natural gas, landscaping and maintenance activities will be calculated using the URBEMIS2007 model for the no-project scenario as well as two project alternatives. The changes in emissions due to the project alternatives will be compared to the SCAQMD Mass Daily thresholds to identify regional air quality impacts. The differences in emissions for each scenario will be analyzed. The application of the SCAQMD LST thresholds to identify potential local air quality impacts from specific projects that may be implemented as a result of the plan will be discussed. • Mitigation Measures. Measures will be developed to reduce significant air quality impacts to the extent possible. Cultural and Paleontological Resources Build out of the proposed land uses have the potential to impact cultural and paleontological resources. As a result, Cogstone has been included on the project team and will prepare a detailed report. The results, findings and recommendations will be incorporated into the EIR, and the study will be included in its entirety as an appendix. Cogstone will perform the following tasks: • A literature study to determine the existence of previously recorded cultural resources within the project boundaries plus a one mile radius will be performed. Records pertaining to paleontology will be searched at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County and in published sources. Records pertaining to archaeology and history will be searched at the South Central Coastal Information Center. A record search for sacred lands will be requested from the Native American Heritage Commission. In addition, we will send subsequent letters to all Native Americans the Commission recommends be contacted. We can assist the City with SB 18 consultation also. • Background research is required to provide context. We will contact the historical society, local libraries and the Huntington for information. We will look at the history and previous reports for the area. Since standing structures are known, we will also locate the building records for studiOOOteven a v:,Mown:,nwn n.ma2i. - 18 - B PROJECT APPROACH the properties to determine the age of the buildings. Buildings older than 1964 may require further evaluation. Pedestrian survey can be performed by two people in one day but additional time may be necessary to record sites or buildings. All resources will be documented by photography and GPS. • The cultural resources technical report will include background to provide context and the results of the record searches and the Native American consultation. In addition, impact analysis and mitigation recommendations will be provided. Geology and Soils Feasiblity of development from a geotechnical standpoint on the project site will be addressed. Global Geo-Engineering, Inc. will prepare a detailed report. The results, findings and recommendations will be incorporated into the EIR, and the study will be included in its entirety as an appendix. Global Geo- Engineering, Inc. will perform the following tasks: • Research and review of available geotechnical reports and maps of the project site and adjacent areas; • Detailed review of all available geotechnical reports and land use plans which include the project site; • Review and analyses of the aerial photographs; • Review of fault hazard studies and earthquake records to evaluate site seismicity; • Review of regional ground water data, • Liquefaction evaluation, • Identify all geologic constraints related to the planned land use plans; • Preparation of a report presenting the results of the evaluation and the recommendations. Hazards and Hazardous Materials This section will evaluate past site activities and proposed construction and development activities to determine whether the site currently contains materials that are hazardous to human health or the environment, and whether the proposed uses of this site could result in such hazards. We have included Global Geo-Engineering, Inc. on the project team to prepare the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment. Based on the approved final report and any necessary supplements thereto, TPG will prepare a narrative discussion of the presence/absence and significance of hazardous waste risks, together with recommendations for remediation measures, if needed, that will be included in the EIR. • Preliminary planning and preparation; • Review of available published information to determine the general geology and hydrogeologic conditions affecting the property; 4 Review of available files at the City of San Juan Capistrano Building Department; studiOOOleven - 19- a1 GeiMo`m„sXulh Aciletls PROPOSAL FOR LAND PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES FOR UPDATING AND AMENDING I HE HISTORIC TOWN CENTER MASI FR PLAN NOVEMBER I?. 9009 • Review of available historic information, including aerial photographs, and maps; • Review of commercially available regulatory database records regarding possible hazardous spills, storage, or production at the property or vicinity of the property; • Property and surrounding area reconnaissance, • Evaluation of the research and field data; • Preparation of a Phase I Environmental Assessment report, prepared in general accordance with ASTM Standard E 1527-00, presenting our findings, conclusions and recommendations. Hydrology and Water Quality Fuscoe Engineering, Inc. has bee included on the project team to prepare hydrology and water quality studies. The results, findings and recommendations will be incorporated into the EIR, and the study will be included in its entirety as an appendix. The hydrology study will: • Identify the maximum amount of acreage subject to and use changes associated with the HTC study area and overlay anticipated land uses and densities. • Identify all regional storm drain systems within the Study Area and identify any existing or known flooding issues as defined in the Master Plan documents. • Overlay FEMA flood mapping data onto the project areas to confirm extent of the 100-year floodplain. • Estimate anticipated hydrologic changes consistent with a Program Level EIR for the study area using local hydrology parameters and typical runoff coefficients and identify potential flooding issues. • Identify anticipated impacts to existing infrastructure. Identify natural drainages and flood control conveyance channels that are subject to stream erosion or channel instability (i.e. hydromodification)with respect to the 4th Term MS4 Storm Water Permit (adopted May 22, 2009). • Identify appropriate hydrology and flood control conditions of approval including appropriate sustainable or green infrastructure conditions for the Program Level EIR to minimize impacts. • Ensure mitigation measures and/or conditions are coordinated and supported by City staff. The water quality study will: • Characterize runoff in a qualitative manner from the existing condition including identification of all receiving water bodies and regional downstream facilities. • Identify any existing regional water quality regulations (i.e. TMDL's) that cover the study area or are located downstream of the study area. studiGOGleven a P<Moxp�PutF4rtII�<cls —20— B. PROJECT APPROACH • Based on the ultimate land use plan, identify anticipated changes in water quality pollutants based on conversions of land uses associated with in-fill and redevelopment. • Identify and specify the appropriate water quality conditions associated with entitlement, grading permits and long-term maintenance requirements for water quality protection including any relevant sustainable or green measures for inclusion in the HTC Master Plan & EIR such as Low Impact Development (LID) measures and water harvesting objectives. • Identify any pertinent groundwater issues in a qualitative nature for the regional area. • Prepare Conditions of Approval that are consistent with the recently updated General Construction Permit (adopted September 2, 2009). Land Use and Planning Past and present land use conditions will be documented, and the local land use patterns will be described. Analysis of project impacts will focus on consistency with the City's General Plan policies (e.g. would the project maintain economic viability while maintaining land use compatibility and historic charm) and compatibility of the proposed land use plan with the surrounding land use pattern. The EIR will include the following information: • Inventory of all existing and planned land uses in the project area. • Analyze recent development trends within the general area and will assess the consistency of the proposed development with both current development trends as well as relevant local and regional land use planning programs. • Provide a nexus between the project's environmental impacts in aggregate and the environmental compatibility of the proposed project with surrounding residential uses. • Propose mitigation measures to reduce potential conflicts between the proposed development and the surrounding uses and future development to the maximum extent feasible. Noise The proposed activities associated with the changes to the project have the potential to substantially increase noise levels near existing sensitive receptors, and may expose surrounding uses to adverse noise levels from demolition and construction activities. In addition, long term noise impacts will be analyzed with respect to any increased activity at the site and increased traffic (if any). The project area is exposed to noise from trains on the rail line that runs along the western boundary of the project area, local traffic and commercial activities. Noise from traffic on the 1-5 freeway located to the east of the project area is audible in much of the project area and generally determines the background noise level. The focus of the noise assessment will be on how the project impacts traffic noise levels in the area around the project and how the rail line and other commercial noise sources may impact the residential uses of proposed mixed use projects. The noise analysis will performed by Mestre'Greve Associates and incorporated into the EIR, and the study will be included in its entirety as an appendix. To accurately assess the potential impacts associated with noise, Mestre Greve Associates will prepare a detailed report by performing the following tasks: studiGOQleven - 21 - al Perknwl�i.Nu111Aa�l,e[�s PROPOSAL FOR LAND PLANNING AND EMJIRON'JENTAL SERVICES FOR UPDAIIN(;AND AMENDING 1HF IiNMRIC TOWN CENTER MASFFR PLAN NOVEMRFR 12 2009 • Existing Environment. Short-term noise measurements will be made at up to eight locations in and around the project area. In addition, noise measurements will be made within the project area to establish the noise levels from train operations. The measurements in conjunction with the FHWA highway noise model ("FHWA Highway Traffic Noise Prediction Model," FHWA-RD-77-108) will be used to describe existing noise levels in the project vicinity. Community noise standards relevant to this project are contained in the City of San Juan Capistrano Noise Element and Noise Ordinance. Standards for the jurisdiction will be summarized and their relevance to the project discussed. • Potential Impacts. The potential noise impacts can be divided into short-term construction noise, impacts on surrounding land uses, and on-site noise/land use compatibility. • As no specific projects will be proposed by the plan, potential construction noise impacts will be discussed generally. The types of construction equipment that may be used during demolition and construction activities and the noise levels generated by this equipment will be presented. Potential construction noise levels at nearby sensitive receptors will be examined. The application of the City Noise Ordinance to control construction noise will be discussed. • The noise impacts associated with the project's traffic on adjacent land uses will be assessed in terms of the CNEL noise scale. The increase in noise levels due to the project and alternative over . no project conditions will be determined. Areas that will experience a significant noise increase will be identified. For the project alternative scenarios, the absolute noise levels experienced in these areas will then be determined, and the resulting land use/noise compatibility discussed. • Noise from operational activities at existing and proposed commercial uses potentially impacting existing and proposed noise sensitive uses will be assessed. Noise levels generated by outdoor activities including parking lot activities, restaurant operations, and mechanical equipment will be estimated at nearby sensitive receptors. Noise levels generated by the community center activities will be compared to the San Juan Capistrano Noise Ordinance criteria to determine impacts. Many recent town center plans have included opportunities for outdoor music at restaurants. This has resulted in a mixed response from the community. If this is proposed for the Town Center, the potential impacts will be evaluated and guidance will be provided for implementing this type of activity. • Traffic and rail noise levels that impact the project site will also be assessed for compatibility with the proposed land uses for the proposed project and project alternative. Noise levels within the project area will be determined and compared to noise/land compatibility guidelines contained in the City of San Juan Capistrano Noise Element and/or the State Compatibility Guidelines. • Mixed-use developments in town center areas provide unique challenges from a noise standpoint. Since a town center area is primarily a commercial district, few limits are usually imposed on their noise generation potential or hours of operation. Residents of the mixed-use projects will often complain about the noise. One approach is to require that residential uses be properly soundproofed. We will assess the potential for this conflict to arise and provide guidance to avoid incompatibilities. studiO00leven ,t Perkow t, R,IM1 1,,h.1e1l — 22 — B_PROJECT APPROACH Mitigation Measures. Preliminary noise barrier locations and other mitigation strategies will be identified as needed for the control of noise levels within the project site. Measures will be developed as necessary to mitigate off-site noise impacts. Population and Housing Total housing and population on-site at buildout will be quantified, based on the proposed amount and mix of residential densities, and compared with the maximum allowable under the City's General Plan intensity tables, to determine whether the potential population would exceed the level of growth included in adopted population projections used by the City and regional planning agencies. The proposed mix of housing densities and anticipated occupancies will be described and consistency with the City's Housing Element will be evaluated. Public Services Public service providers servicing the proposed project will be contacted to identify existing facilities that would be affected by the project, existing service levels and capacities available to serve the proposed land uses and intensity of the proposed development. Mitigation measures to avoid or reduce the significance of project-related impacts will be developed and included in the EIR. The fire department, police department, school district and orange county library will be contacted regarding the proposed project. Transportation/Traffic In order to assess potential traffic impacts of the proposed project, Transtech has been included on the project team to prepare a detailed traffic report for the proposed project. The traffic study will satisfy the requirements of the City of San Juan Capistrano, and will be consistent with the Orange County Congestion Management Program (CMP)Traffic Impact Analysis Report (TIA) Guidelines. The results, findings and recommendations will be reviewed by Templeton Planning Group staff and incorporated into the EIR. This information will be included in its entirety as an appendix. A detailed scope of work for the traffic study was provided above. Utilities and Service Systems The proposed land plan may result in additional impacts for utilities and service systems. As a result, utilities providers servicing the proposed project will be contacted to identify existing facilities that would be affected by the project, existing service levels and capacities available to serve the proposed land uses and intensity of the proposed development. Mitigation measures to avoid or reduce the significance of project-related impacts will be developed and included in the EIR. The following agencies will be contacted regarding the proposed project: • SJC Utilities (Water and Sewer) • Metropolitan Water District(Water) • Orange County Sanitation District (Sewer) • Pacific Bell (Telephone) • Southern California Edison (Electricity) • Southern California Gas (Natural Gas) • County of Orange Integrated Waste Management District (Solid Waste) studiQQQleven -23- .t P,,wo [tz,amn A,,hi,au,c PROPOSAL FOR LAND PI ANNING AND ENVIRONMEN FAL SERVICES FOR UPDAFING AND AMENDING ME LISFORIC TOWN CENTER MASIFR PLAN NOVEMBFR 12. 2009 Climate Change Templeton Planning Group will calculate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the project site from stationary and mobile sources to determine the projects effect on climate change. TPG will incorporate the analysis completed for GHG emissions prepared by Mestre Greve Associates. This section will analyze impacts in accordance with AB 32 and Executive Order S-3-05. In addition, the Office of Planning and Research recently came out with draft thresholds for GHG analysis. These thresholds will be incorporated to the extent practicable. Mitigation measures and project design features will be suggested to reduce impacts. Mestre Greve will perform the following tasks: • Existing Environment. There are no standards or significance thresholds that have been established by the SCAQMD or the California Air Resources Board (ARB). The ARB has released a preliminary draft of proposed significance thresholds but these have not been finalized and are controversial. However, the California Attorney General has provided some recommended guidance. The Attorney General has suggested that most projects will not have a significant impact, but that the cumulative impacts will be significant. It is important for the existing environment section to provide a good background on greenhouse gas generation, the fact that it is a global problem, and to identify on a large-scale basis the major sources of greenhouse gas emissions. Further, the Governor's Office of Planning and Research has submitted proposed amendments to the CEQA Guidelines for greenhouse gas emissions to the Secretary for Natural Resources. The Natural Resources Agency will conduct formal rulemaking some time in 2009, prior to certifying and adopting the amendments. Potential Impacts. Many gases make up the group of pollutants that are believed to contribute to the greenhouse effect. However, carbon dioxide (CO2) is the major pollutant of concern for greenhouse impacts. The URBEMIS model will be used to project CO2 emissions from electrical consumption, water usage, and natural gas combustion. • Mitigation Measures. The need for mitigation measures is an open question at this time. Since there are no threshold criteria, there can be no impacts, and without impacts, there is no need for mitigation. However, a list of possible measures will be included. TASK D. ALTERNATIVES In compliance with Section 15126(d) of the State CEQA Guidelines, a qualitative discussion of various alternatives to the proposed project will be presented. TPG will consult with City staff for assistance in defining the alternatives to be analyzed in the EIR. Alternatives will be selected on the basis of their ability to (1) avoid or reduce one or more of the project's significant impacts and (2) feasibly attain most of the basic objectives of the project. The rationale for selecting each alternative will be explained, along with the principal features and environmental effects of each one. If any alternatives were considered during the project scoping process but rejected, reasons for rejecting those alternatives will be provided. Analyses of three alternatives in addition to the "No-Project"Alternative are included in the cost estimate for the EIR. Potential alternatives scenarios include 1) No-Project/No Development; 2) Alternative Site Plan; 3) Reduced Intensity Alternative; and, 4)Alternative Site. Impacts associated with studrOOQleven e Perkowi�nRuln nrcnibds - 24 - B. PROJECI APPROACH each alternative will be compared to proposed project impacts, for each of the environmental impact categories included in the preceding sections of the SEiR. The environmentally superior alternative will be identified; if it is the No-Project/No Development Alternative, then one of the development alternatives will be identified as environmentally superior to the others. TASK E. CEQA MANDATED SECTIONS In addition to the topical issues discussed above, the following sections will be prepared as mandated by CEQA: • Executive summary • Adverse environmental impacts which cannot be avoided if the project is implemented • Environmental effects found not to be significant • The relationship between local short-term uses of man's environment and the maintenance and enhancement of long-term productivity • Any irreversible environmental changes which occur if the proposed project is implemented • Growth Inducement • Organizations and individuals contacted • Report preparation personnel • Bibliography • Appendices TASK F.

"" Keyser Marston Associates West Anaheim & Downtown Anaheim -City of Anaheim KMA assisted the City of Anaheim in the preparation of a community based specific plan for the West Anaheim area. KMA reviewed demographic characteristics of the area and the existing land uses. KMA concluded that the area has an over abundance of commercial uses and has assisted in a refor- mulation of land uses designed to strengthen the retail land uses. This is to be accomplished by con- solidating retail activities and re-designating some of the excess retail land to residential use. Other excess land is to be targeted to local service industries, manufacturers and other small businesses. Working with the City and CIM, KMA also evaluated the financial options and opportunities for the rede- velopment of downtown Anaheim. The analysis included a review of the market area opportunities and the financial feasibility of the development under alternative scenarios.

This project would require a general plan amendment and zone change in addition to amendments to the Southport Framework Plan and Design Guidelines. In addition to the residential community, a transit-oriented town center is being designed at the terminus of the proposed electric streetcar for easy access and an alternative to driving a car. Throughout the Liberty community, pedestrian and bicycle trail systems would be interconnected to the town square park, K-8th grade school, the new River City High School, and the Sacramento River trails. We are proposing an interpretive boardwalk through Bee's Lake to connect the future residents with the Sacramento River and to provide educational outings for nearby students.

He has assembled and directed multi-disciplinary teams for urban projects ranging in size from multiple neighborhood master plans to entire towns, and ranging in scale and character from rural hamlets and small towns to major metropolitan districts. His current and recent downtown master plans include a 1,000-acre specific plan for the downtown district and neighborhoods of Paso Robles, California; a 400 acre master plan for greyfield neighborhoods adjacent to downtown San Antonio, Texas; the Downtown Specific Plan and the Midtown Corridors Code for Ventura, California; the Waterfront District Master Plan in Hercules, California; the Downtown Addition Specific Plan in King City, California; the North Main Street Corridor and Station Area Master Plan in Freeport, New York; and the 2,500 acre Downtown Neighborhoods Community Plan and Fulton Corridor Specific Plan for the City of Fresno. Mr. Sargent is a long-time practitioner and advocate of form-based development codes and the principal author of several of the first such codes adopted in California, including Oxnard's Downtown District Master Plan (1993), Ventura's Saticoy Village Specific Plan (1996), Hercules' Waterfront District Master Plan (2000), the Central Petaluma Specific Plan (2003) and numerous more recent plans. In 2004 he was coauthor and editor of a White Paper on Smart Growth in California for the Governors Office of Planning and Research, which proved Instrumental in the passage of legislation enabling cities to use form-based codes in lieu of conventional use-based zoning codes. Mr. Sargent is a frequent speaker on the subjects of sustainable urbanism and form-based codes, has organized conferences and presentations on these subjects over the past 20 years, including a Smart Growth track for the 2003 Conference of the California Chapter of the American Planning Association, classes through the Congress for the New Urbanism and Form-Based Codes Institute, and panels and presentations in Ventura County. He was a seven-year member of Ventura's Architectural Review Board (now the Design Review Committee), co-chair of the Downtown Specific Plan Steering Committee in the early 1990's, and provided pro bono consultation to the on drafting the Art in Public Places policy and the original community design element of Ventura's General Plan. RECENT PROJECT EXPERIENCE River North Master Plan and Code,San Antonio,TX, Project Director' The River North Master Plan was prepared for the Downtown San Antonio Community Development Corporation and the City of San Antonio through a 12-month charrette- centered process public process. The planning area abuts the north edge San Antonio's historic downtown, and includes fragmented historic neighborhoods, underutilized industrial properties, a major commercial strip, and a variety of fine historic civic buildings. A northward extension of the historic San Antonio River Walk was under way and the City intended the master plan to leverage the value of that investment and catalyze new, high value urban development. The master plan re-envisions this area as three, pedestrian-oriented and transit-oriented neighborhoods and a performing arts district anchored by restored historic theaters. A streetcar is proposed along the Broadway Corridor, reconnecting the downtown to the wealthy 1920's suburbs to the north, for one of which Mr. Sargent has subsequently led the conceptual design to transform the Broadway corridor to a downtown district. The raimi + associates the nature of community River North Master Plan was adopted by unanimous vote of the City Council and has received a 2009 Charter Award from the Congress for the New Urbanism. The restoration of the first theater as a concert hall is currently under design, a feasibility study for the streetcar is underway, the River Walk extension is complete and several development projects are underway. Ventura Downtown Specific Plan and Midtown Corridors Code, Ventura,California, Project Director` In 1990 Mr. Sargent led the effort to initiate a Downtown Specific Plan for Ventura, and co-chaired the City's Steering Committee during its preparation from 1991 to 1993. In 2003 the City adopted a new General Plan that refocused development toward the City center, and Mr. Sargent was part of the team that prepared a new form-based development code for the downtown, with was incorporated into an updated Downtown Specific Plan. The General Plan also directed that form-based coding be employed throughout the City, and Mr. Sargent was retained as the "town architect' to work with City staff in developing a format for the form-based code, and to apply it to the Main Street and Thompson Boulevard Corridors running through the historic Midtown neighborhoods to the east of Downtown. That Code was adopted in 2008 and received a Driehaus Award from the Form-Based Codes Institute that year. In his capacity as town architect, Mr. Sargent also provided development design review services related to implementation of the Downtown Code. Waterfront District Master Plan and Code, Hercules, California, Principal in Charge The owners of this 167 acre brownfield site on San Pablo Bay retained Mr. Sargent in 1999 to prepare a master plan and form-based development code for mixed-use waterfront neighborhoods and new town center. The site includes the historic town center established by the Hercules Powder Company, and the master plan integrates the remaining historic structures into a new downtown with an Amtrak station, terry terminal and waterfront park for this growing city. The initial neighborhoods are complete, and the station and the transit-oriented development along the waterfront and around the station are in final design. Downtown Addition Specific Plan, King City, California, Principal in Charge` The King City general plan identified the property to the east of its historic downtown as the preferred area for new growth. Mr. Sargent led a charrette-based process on behalf of the property owners, to develop a vision plan for their 500 acre property in the form of new neighborhoods designed in the traditions of South Monterey County. The Downtown Addition Specific Plan defines detailed land use and development standards and a public realm design for the first 100 acres adjacent to the downtown and a planned Amtrak station. The draft specific plan is undergoing public review and the environmental impact report is nearly complete. East Area 1 Specific Plan, Santa Paula,California, Principal in Charge" The t-imoneira Company — the oldest citrus packing company in California — owns a ranch on the eastern edge of Santa Paula which the City had identified as a preferred site for urban expansion. Limoneira retained Mr. Sargent to lead the planning and design effort for that property, resulting in a vision plan and specific plan for three new neighborhoods and a civic district with new schools, employment and neighborhood- raimi + associates the nature of community serving retail uses. An extensive public outreach process led to broad community support for the plan, and a public vote to designate the property for urban development passed by a margin of 65 to 15. The first phase — public soccer fields — has been completed and engineering work for the initial phases of development is underway. Hospital District Master Plan and Code,Ventura,California, Project Director' As Community Memorial Hospital was pursuing entitlement for a new hospital tower to comply with California's stringent seismic codes, and the City requested that an urban design and form-based code be prepared for the hospital campus and vicinity to ensure that it fit in appropriately to a tight urban context adjacent to existing neighborhoods. Mr. Sargent had previously led the preparation of the City's Midtown Corridors Cade, which regulates development on properties surrounding the hospital zone. Mr. Sargent led a charrette-based process resulting in a master plan that defines several new streets, two public greens, a new lined parking structure and future medical office buildings, reorganizing existing underutilized public parking lots into a pedestrian-oriented mixed-use medical district and creating a distinguished new address for the hospital tower. A master parking strategy and transportation demand management program are keys to the planned transformation, as is a massing-based development code for the hospital property that harmonizes the hospital with the adjoining mixed-use zoning of the Midtown Corridors Code. The project is currently undergoing environmental review, and construction is scheduled for 2011. Tehachapi General Plan Update, City of Tehachapi, California, Project Director' In 2006 the City of Tehachapi became concerned that new development was changing the character of their town, and simultaneously imposed a one-year moratorium on new residential subdivisions and retained Mr. Sargent's team to assist them in identifying measures that might be taken to ensure that new investment would reinforce the town's identity as a "small mountain town." Through a charrette-based process, the team prepared a community vision plan that was documented as an interim Community Design Program (ICDP), with general guidance as to subdivision standards, street and park standards, and development type standards. A key recommendation of the ICDP was that the City's general plan be updated to incorporate policies that would support the central goal off retaining the towns beloved character even as it grows, and eliminating a range of policies that were inadvertently eradicating that character. Mr. Sargent is now leading a general plan update process which is scheduled for completion in the spring of 2010. Ventura Harbor Specific Plan,Ventura,California, Project Director' The Ventura Port District had for a number of years been pursuing a master plan to guide the long-term development of this special district surrounding Ventura's harbor. To move that process forward quickly during the current economic downtown, so that the District would be poised to take advantage of new investment, Mr. Sargent led a charrette-based process to prepare a clear master plan and form-based development code for the Harbor. Key elements of the emerging plan include a new parking and mobility strategy to reduce the area of beachfront parking lots, the creation of a new beachfront hotel site, the expansion of boatyards and commercial fisheries, and the insertion of• housing to balance the existing commercial uses on the site. The conceptual design has been well received by the community and the City, and the specific plan and development code are underway. raimi + associates the nature of community RiverPark Specific Plan, Oxnard, California, Principal in Charge As part of a large planning team, Mr. Sargent led the neighborhood design work for this 700 acre plan for a site that included a partially completed business park and gravel pits. The project was designed as a compact, cohesive, complete mixed-use community including five predominantly residential neighborhoods, commercial and retail districts, elementary and secondary schools, and play fields and parks. Many of the planning and design concepts grew from the City's Vision for a More Livable Community, which Mr. Sargent prepared along with City staff in 1996. Much of housing in RiverPark has been completed and occupied and the commercial district is scheduled to open in 2009.

We call our approach to planning `..fhe Nature of Community." Our goal is to balance the needs of the natural environment with the needs of residents and businesses-, and develop long-range plans and policy documents- that advance environmental, economic and social sustainability. We believe that beautiful communities, a healthy environment, a strong economy, and an active and healthy citizenry are the cornerstones of great planning; we strive to enhance each of these in every project we complete. Raimi + Associates' work focuses on a number of topic areas and a variety of scales, from regions and cities down to streets, buildings, and blocks. Our primary service areas are general plans, urban design and form-based code, s-ustainabdity planning, public health and the built environment, and contract planning. General Plans Raimi + Associates has extensive experience with preparing General plans and open space plans across the State of California in a diversiry of communities, from completely urbanized cities to fast- growing towns. Raimn + Associates takes a unique approach to General Plans. With every plan, we incorporate sustainability and public health while advancing the principles of Smart Growth and New Urbamsm: encouraging compact design, allowing a mix of uses, increasing walkabiliq' and transportation options, creating a sense of place, supporting existing communities, preserving natural areas, and relying on conmmmiv knowledge. Raimi + ,Associates is a national leader in the development of new urbanist and "form-based" comprehensive plans, and developed one of the first form-based General Plans ever written in California. form-based or new urbanist comprehensive plans differ from conventional comprehensive plans by regulating design, form, and structure in addition to use, and by oneming around intended outcomes and community character. We believe that the most effective general plans are completed in a short timeframe, and so we specialize in providing an expedited planning process for all our clients. We are able to do this because we take on a limited number of projects and provide focused attention to each.

TPG's professionals possess a multitude of talents and are familiar with a multi-disciplinary team concept, demanding schedules, and writing reports to withstand agency, public and legal scrutiny. Our experience in community planning and expertise in environmental issues has led to a synthesized approach which acknowledges and assimilates environmental constraints, client goals and community ideals. Prior to founding TPG in 1989, Mr. Templeton was a founding partner of a major West Coast planning firm. The firm offers a variety of planning services including development strategies, site planning, urban design, hillside and golf course design, feasibility studies and entitlement processing. Our environmental services include initial studies, EIRs, resource management and mitigation monitoring. We specialize in analyzing the potential impacts of a given project, developing innovative mitigation measures to reduce project-related impacts, and steering the EIR through the local government review process. TPG has completed many EIRs for specific plans, major mixed-use developments, planned communities, and transportation projects for numerous jurisdictions throughout California. These jurisdictions face constraints and opportunities that are familiar to the City of San Juan Capistrano including:, visual and geological impacts of hillside development, traffic, runoff management, public controversy, and protection of sensitive habitat and open space management. The Environmental Services Division has expertise in providing the following services: • Environmental Impact Reports and Statements • Initial Studies • Environmental Assessments • Expanded Initial Studies • Negative Declarations • Mitigated Negative Declarations • Required Environmental Notices and Coordination • Mitigation Monitoring Plans • Mitigation Monitoring Services • Findings of Fact • Statement of Overriding Considerations • Staff Reports for Environmental Projects • Detailed Designs for Project Alternatives • Opportunity and Constraints Analyses Legal Entity: Templeton Planning Group is a sole proprietorship.

In addition to the Plan Amendment the Agency is seeking professional services to conduct environmental review of the amended plan subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Board approved the RFP with minor additions and authorized staff to solicit proposals from a list of pre-qualified firms. The RFP for professional land planning and environmental consulting services for amending the Historic Town Center Master Plan was issued on October 8, 2009 with Agenda Report Page 2 December 15, 2009 responses due by November 12, 2009. A total of ten RFP's were distributed. Six proposals were received by the Agency from the following firms in alphabetical order: 1. Dahlin Group, www.dahlingroup.com 2. Design, Community, and Environment, www.dceplanning.com 3. RRM Designs, www.rrmdsign.com 4. Studio One Eleven, www.studio-111.com 5. Torti Gallas and Partners, www.tortigallas.com 6. Field PaoliNillage Partners, www.fieldpaoli.com The scope of work in the RFP called for two major work components. One component was to update the HTC Master Plan. The Second component was to prepare the environmental review of the updated Master Plan. The update of the Master Plan involves expanding the plan area, evaluating circulation elements including among other matters, the narrowing of Ortega Highway and its possible extension into the Depot area, parking, and pedestrian movements. Along with vehicular and pedestrian movement will include a new chapter entitled Public Realm to cover streetscape design aspects.

Electronic copies of the six proposals received are available for public inspection on the City's web site at http://www.sanFuancapistrano.org/index.asox?page=1277. Evaluation Panel Past Chairman Hribar appointed a seven-member panel to help evaluate the proposals, interview the respondents and make a recommendation for the preferred consulting Agenda Report Page 3 December 15, 2009 team to the Board of Directors. The panel consisted of two members from the City Council, two members from the Planning Commission, one member from the Design Review Committee, one member from the Transportation Commission and one representative from the downtown stakeholders. Each evaluation panel member was provided a copy of the Board approved RFP which defines the proposal submission requirements and anticipated scope of work; one hard copy of each of the six proposals and accompanying rating matrix sheet. Interviews were held with all six respondents on Wednesday, November 18, 2009. All six responding teams were provided a 30-minute interview; with 20-minutes allocated for presentation of the team and their proposal and 10 minutes for questions and answers. The panelist ranked the proposals based on scoring for: A. Experience of the firm/team their technical expertise and the key personnel assigned to the project; and, B. Project understanding and technical competence along with originality to conforming to community character; and, C. The quality of proposal and responsiveness; and, D. Project budget and reasonableness of fee proposed with an emphasis toward an all-encompassing proposal that does not require subsequent change orders. The table below show how the panelist ranked the proposing teams and their submission.

Most firms deviated little from the scope outlined in the RFP; however some proposals did identify optional additional work that the in firms professional opinion would be sensible additions to the endeavor. For example, the Master Plan amendment process may establish parking standard for the HTC area that are not consistent with current zoning requirements. In this example, some proposals offered as additional services to prepare any requisite code amendments that maybe necessary to implement the Amended Master Plan. The table below summarizes the ranking of the six respondents to the Agency's request for professional land planning and environmental consulting services. The Field PaoliNillage Partners team received four out of seven first place rankings making them the overall recommendation from the evaluation panel. 1. Field Paoli/Village Partners 2.

SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO COMMUNITY REDEVEOPMENT AGENCY By: Laura Freese, Chairman "CONSULTANT" Field Pa rchitec By: F n . F ler Pri cipal ATTEST: Maria Morris, Agency Secretary APPROVED AS TO FORM: ow 0, oam&lap Omar Sand al, Agency Couns I Page 10 of 10 EXHIBIT"A" SCOPE OF WORK PROJECT UNDERSTANDING This scope of work for the Historic Town Center Master Plan Amendment for the City of San Juan Capistrano is based on the Request for Proposals for Land Planning and Environmental Services dated October 9th 2009. This in turn is based on the findings and recommendations of the Urban Land Institute Technical Advisory Panel Report dated June 26, 2008. The scope of work encompasses the necessary visioning, outreach and consensus building that is a necessary next step towards the creation of a thriving downtown core. The work to be undertaken by the team falls broadly into the following categories: A. Expand the study area from the 7.5 acre downtown core in the 1995 master plan to the 31 acres described in the RFP B. Analyze existing conditions, opportunities and constraints, and use these as a realistic basis for proposed improvements C. Review all relevant codes, policies, maps, plans and any previous studies and build upon preferred alternative num ber 2 in the 1995 master plan wherever possible D. Build upon existing assets to create an attractive downtown public realm that is inviting to residents and visitors by capitalizing on the history, culture, walkability, proximity to public transit and the attractive setting of the downtown E. Determine product demand, parking requirements, traffic patterns, merchandising potential and possible new tenants F. Identify opportunity sites within the study area and prepare recommendations for the sensitive redevelopment of these sites, including height, massing, density and building design guidelines. Determine the appropriate uses or mix of uses for new developments G. Place an emphasis on pedestrian priority, place-making, improved pedestrian amenities and more effective connections to adjacent districts, neighborhoods and communities . H. Set goals for improved building design, signage, wayfinding enhancement, landscaping, artwork, sculpture, lighting and fagade improvements I. Develop a plan which includes realistic cost estimates and a viable phasing strategy which can be implemented in phases J. Address the physical and economic impacts of the Caltrans 1-5 interchange project K. Prepare an Environmental Impact Report for the amended master plan in accordance with CEQA requirements L. Seek support from The National Trust for Historic Preservation by accreditation through their National Main Street program Page 1. EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF WORK KEYISSUES This is an exciting opportunity to engage interested stakeholders in developi ng an updated vision for the strategic development of Downtown San Juan Capistrano. We understand the key issues associated with this study to be: 1. Bring together various stakeholders to identify mutual interests and decide on common goals and desired outcomes. Develop options which can be measured against agreed common standards 2. Decide how best to take advantage of the proposed highway interchange improvements to help reinvent downtown, including dealing with the short-term and long-term impacts of the construction and disruption, and also by considering the most effective utilization of the reconfigured land parcels around the realignment within the study area. This change offers the potential for the creation of a more pronounced and memorable gateway into downtown 3. Develop solutions which capture the very significant numbers of visitors to The Mission and encourage them to stay and explore other parts of the downtown core on foot. 4. Develop retail and commercial solutions that satisfy local and regional needs. If the downtown business area is patronized by residents, visitors will follow 5. Put an emphasis on the creation of great outdoor places which provide a high quality public realm to be enjoyed by all sectors of the community 6. Create an efficient process for building stakeholder consensus and establis h a strategic master plan grounded in market realities and community support 7. Improve circulation, parking and the economic viability of downtown 8. Provide a strong sustainable overlay to any proposed plans and developments. San Juan Capistrano has a climate and a culture that is ideally suited to aggressively promote sustainable policies for all new projects and to boost the City's reputation for environmental awareness and sensitivity Some of the key issues that will need to be addressed from a circulation perspective include: g. Impacts associated with the identified improvements to the I-5/Ortega Highway interchange and the resulting traffic impacts at area-wide intersections. 10. Evaluation of alternative travel mode opportunities in the Ci ty taking advantage of the Historic Train Depot, and focusing on new opportunities for pedestrians and bicyclists in the new plan. 11. Understanding the "other' transportation needs of the community including serving a significant number of visitors to the area including tour buses to the Mission, downtown event parking for the Mission, as well as City sponsored events such as the Chili Cook Off. 12. Understanding the potential for redistribution of traffic depending upon future locations of potential parking facilities. Page 2.

The organization of the report will also be based on the 1995 report; Chapter 1 — Introduction Chapter 2— Background Chapter 3— Purpose of the Master Plan Chapter 4—Goals and Policies These 4 chapters will receive a light update to ensure that the text remains consistent with the focus and aspirations of the refinements established within this amendment process Chapter 5— M aster Plan Opportunities and Constraints Chapter 6— Economic and Fiscal Issues These 2 chapters will receive a major update to reflect the significant changes which have occurred since the 1995 Master Plan was approved, such as the 1-5 Ortega interchange realignment, the expanded study area to 31 acres and prevailing economic conditions. The master planning process necessarily occurs within the physical envelope of policies, requirements and infrastructure. The decisions concerning how the plan might be revised to reflect new possibilities in the context of the current economic realities evolve from the scope of work that incorporates the following elements: SCOPE OF WORK NEW ECONOMY AND PLACE EXPERIENCE • Identify and discuss the new economy trends that will influence the demand for property goods and services • Identify and discuss the new economy trends that will influence investment and development opportunities • Identify and discuss the opportunities and threats to commercial and residential real estate investm ents • Evaluate and discuss the City of San Juan Capistrano's competitive economic position in relationship to other communities within greater Southern California • Evaluate and discuss the City of San Juan Capistrano's Value Proposition SOCIOECONOMIC DRIVERS IN THE CITY OF SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO AND ORANGE COUNTY • Project industry and occupational employment and labor force drivers, changes and trends • Project employment growth within the largest occupation categories in Orange County from 2010 through 2030 • Identify the economic base drivers of the City of San Juan Capistrano and Orange County Page 6. EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF WORK • Discuss historic (2000 through 2009) and project future population and household composition and changes from 2010 through 2030 • Discuss the history of current and project the future housing characteristics w ithin the City of San Juan Capistrano and Orange County • Project future housing demand based on household growth and income parameters within the City of San Juan Capistrano and Orange County LAND USE OPTIONS: MULTI-FAMILY RENTAL, FOR SALE HOUSING, COMMERCIAL OFFICE AND RETAIL USES • Track and synthesize prospects and performance of office, retail and residential • Discuss the current status (occupancy and rental rates) of the land use options within the City of San Juan Capistrano • Discuss the potential performance within the City of San Juan Capistrano in comparison to select communities in Orange County • Forecast the demand for the four land use options from 2010 to 2030 Chapter 7— Master Plan, Public Participation Chapter 8— Master Plan Alternatives Chapter 9—Analysis of Alternatives It is assumed that these 3 chapters will not require updating. They will either be archived or converted to appendices as important background information. New Chapter 7— Preferred Master Plan This chapter will describe and illustrate the basic urban design com ponents of the amended master plan and will describe the process used to arrive at the updated sche me. It will include recommendations for any necessary revisions to City policies for the possible future redevelopment of privately-owned properties within the study are which have been identified in the amended master plan as opportunity sites. New Chapter 8— Public Realm Design Guidelines This chapter will include new design guidelines for improvements within the public realm, and will cover such aspects as public parks, plazas and streetscape design standards (road widths, parking spaces, intersections, medians, crosswalks, trees, street furniture, signage, art and landscaping). New Chapter 9— Infrastructure The consultant team understands that the City has updated their Water and Sewer Master Plans; however, no intensification of land uses was contemplated for the study area at the time. The updated Master Plans and GIS data for all water and sewer utilities will be made available to the consultant team in order to facilitate a determination of existing conditions: Water& Sewer Investigation (no recycled water is planned for the Historic Town Center) The consultant team will review the Historic Town Center land use plan a nd prepare water and sewer flow estimates. Assuming the proposed land uses will result in increased water demand for the study area, we will identify the City's current plans for drinking and irrigation water supply, or obtain and review information available from MWDOC, wholesaler of imported water to the City. We will identify the type of sewer service currently implemented for the HTC study area. If the area is served by collection sewers, and the proposed land uses will result in increased sewer flows, we will identify the offsite systems and plans for upgrading conveyance capacity. Page 7. EXHIBIT"A" SCOPE OF WORK New Chapter 10—Traffic and circulation Fehr & Peers will aid in the development of the vehicle circulation plan, potential parking facilities and demands, bikeway and pedestrian facilities (and their connectivity to the regional bicycle and pedestrian networks), and identification of transit enhancements and opportunities for the preparation for the preferred alternative. Traffic Analysis of Circulation Element Fehr & Peers will obtain summary of preferred land uses in order to evaluate the four circulation elements needing further study. We will work with the City of San Juan Capistrano Model consultant to develop forecasts for the study area. Fehr& Peers will draft the text to support the Master Plan update and will address the following issues: • Review current parking standards and provide recommendations based on previously completed Downtown Parking Study. • Identification of alternative mode opportunities (pedestrian, bicycle, rail, and bus transit potential in the Master Plan area) • Existing conditions assessment of up to 20 roadway segments or intersections in the study area (to be identified in coordination with City Staff) • Future traffic forecasts of the 20 study roadway segments/intersections and measures to provide acceptable operations will be identified. The level of effort assumed does not include costs incurred by the City's Traffic Model consultant.

The draft significance criteria will include proposed criteria for each topical issue to be addressed in the EIR. Early agreement regarding significance criteria will help to focus the setting information and the impact analyses provided in the EIR. 5.1.6 NOTICE OF PREPARATION (NOP)AND INITIAL STUDY (IS) RBF will prepare a Notice of Preparation (NOP) and Initial Study) for distribution in accordance with the CEQA Guidelines and the City's"Local Guidelines for Implementing the California Environmental Quality Act." RBF believes this is an important step to take in the process to best determine the topics to be analyzed in the Draft EIR, and which topics required new or additional technical analysis to support the proposed project. As a part of this task, RBF will be able to use the information gained The NOP/ISwill include a project description, location map, and the environmental topics to be covered in the Draft EIR based on those issues identified by the City. RBF will distribute copies of the NOP/IS to responsible and trustee agencies, and the State Clearinghouse. R BF will coordinate with City staff to ensure that copies are distributed to interested individuals. Following the 30-day public comment period, RBF will review all comments with City staff and discuss/decide on any refinements to the proposed work program. 5.1.7 SCOPING MEETING During the NOP/IS review period, RBF will conduct a scoping meeting pursuant to the provisions of the CEQA Guidelines in order to ensure that all issues of potential public controversy will be adequately addressed in the Draft EIR. At the scoping session, review the CEQA process, summarize key environmental issues and the anticipated scope of the EIR, and outline the expected schedule for the EIR's preparation and the public's involvement. Page 10. EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF WORK Following the scoping meeting, RBF will prepare a written summary of environmental issues raised at the meetings and explain how issues are to be addressed within the approved scope of work, and submit it to the City for review. A final version of the summary will be included in the Appendix of the Draft EIR with the written comment letters received in response to the NOP. 5.1.8 WORK PROGRAM REFINEMENT RBF will refine the work program, as necessary, in accordance with information compiled during the NOP/IS process and Scoping Meeting. Following receipt and review of all NOP/IS and Scoping Meeting comments, RBF will work with planning staff to refine the scope of work as deemed necessary to assure all environmental topics are adequately addressed. RBF will present the identify if there are any scope and budget modifications required to respond to the comments. RBF will submit a refined work program and budget for review and approval to the Redevelopment Manager. TASK 5.2 ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS RBF will conduct an analysis of each environmental topic relevant to the Historic Town Center Master Plan project. The work conducted as part of this task will be incorporated into the Administrative Draft EIR and will constitute the major portion of the EIR. The analysis for each topic will include: 1. A description of the existing setting relevant to the proposed project; 2. Significance criteria; 3. A program level analysis of the potential impacts that could result from implementation of the Historic Town Center Master Plan; 4. Recommended mitigation measures necessary to reduce program level impacts, identified as a result of implementation of the Historic Town Center Master Plan. These sections will comply with all applicable provisions of CEQA and address all relevant Initial S tudy checklist topics. 5.2.1 LAND USE & PLANNING The Land Use & Planning section will include both a policy analysis with relevant plans (federal, state, regional, local), as well as compatibility analysis. The land use & planning analysis will specifically consider if the proposed master plan would conflict with applicable General Plan policies (e.g. Land Use Element, Circulation Element, Cultural Resources Element, Conservation & Open Space Element, and Community Design Element) as they relate to the project area, or would conflict with relevant provisions of Title 9, Land Use Code of the Municipal Code. 5.2.2 POPULATION & HOUSING This section will document the area's existing population and housing characteristics in both a local (City of San Juan Capistrano) and regional (SCAG, Orange County Council of Governments) context based upon available demographic and survey data. RBF will assess the population and housing im pacts that would result from the development of the Master Plan. 5.2.3 TRANSPORTATION & TRAFFIC Fehr & Peers will prepare the transportation chapter of the programmatic level EIR. The tasks required to complete the transportation chapter are outlined in detail below. Page 11. EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF WORK The CEQA assessment will build off of the technical assessments developed in tasks 1 2 and 3 and no new technical assessment is envisioned. EXISTING CONDITIONS Fehr & Peers will evaluate the existing conditions for the specific plan area at the locations identified and evaluated as part of the specific plan process. The traffic analysis shall be prepared consistent with City Administrative Policy 310, Preparation & Use of Traffic Impact Studies. For intersections, we propose to evaluate AM and PM peak hour intersection operations using ICU & HCM 2000 methodologies and the Synchro level of service analysis software. For roadway segments, we propose to use thresholds identified in the specific plan and/or the City's General Plan. FORECASTS Fehr & Peers will develop forecasts for use in this analysis for the following scenarios: Project Forecasts— Fehr & Peers will estimate the trips added to the roadway system using standard Institute of Transportation Engineers' (ITE) trip generation rates or rates contained in the City model. Appropriate reductions will be applied for trip internalization and existing trips on the roadway system. The increase in traffic will be assigned to the study intersections. Cumulative No Project Condition Forecasts - Fehr& Peers will work with the City model consultant to develop these forecasts assuming existing land use in the Specific Plan area. Cumulative With Specific Plan Condition Forecasts - Fehr& Peers will add the increment increase of the project traffic to the No Project forecasts. IMPACT ANALYSIS Fehr & Peers will coordinate with City staff regarding applicable significance criteria to be used in the impact analysis prior to conducting any detailed analyses. Fehr & Peers will add the Project Forecasts to existing volumes at the study intersections. Levels of service at the study roadway segments/intersections will be evaluated for Existing With Project Conditions using the methodologies described in the Existing Conditions section. Cumulative No Project and Cumulative With Project levels of service will also be estimated using the methodologies described. The results of the analysis for Existing, Existing With Project, Cumulative No Project, and Cumulative With Project Conditions will be used to identify significant impacts to the study facilities. Feasible measures will be identified, where significant impacts are identified. Fehr & Peers will identify impacts to bicycle, pedestrian, and transit facilities by identifying inconsistencies between the proposed Specific Plan and existing regional plans. 5.2.4 AIR QUALITY/GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS RBF will prepare the air quality and greenhouse gas emissions technical study to be incorporated into the EIR. The study will include the following: Existing Conditions. The City of San Juan Capistrano is located within the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB), which is under the jurisdiction of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). Baseline meteorological and air quality data developed through the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and climatological and air quality profile data gathered by the SCAQMD will be utilized for the description of existing Page 12. EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF WORK ambient air quality. Air quality data from the nearest air quality monitoring stations will be included to highlight existing air quality local to the proposed project site. Other sources such as regulatory documents, professional publications, and RBF experience in the project area will supplement background information. A summary of current air quality management efforts will be provided. The current status and applicability of the SCAQMD's Air Quality Attainment Plans and CEQA Guidelines will be provided. A summary of the relevant policies, rules, and regulations from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and CARB (i.e., California Clean Air Act, Air Quality Attainment Plans, etc.) will also be provided. An overview of the nature and location of existing sensitive receptors will be also provided. The sensitive receptors would include, but not be limited to residential development, hospitals, and schools. Sensitive receptor populations will be determined through the following guidance documents (in addition to the SCAQMD CEQA Air Quality Handbook): • California Air Resources Board, Children's E nvironmental Risk Reduction Program, 2005. • California Air Resources Board, Air Quality and Land Use Handbook: A Community Health Perspective, April 2005. • California Air Resources Board, 2003 Progress Report and Research Plan on the Air Resources Board's Vulnerable Populations Research Program, August 2003. Construction-Related Emissions. Fugitive dust emissions from construction activities will be quantified using URBEMIS2007. The analysis will estimate equipment exhaust emissions utilizing the latest emission factors as prescribed by CARB and the EMFAC2007 and OFFROADS2007 models. RBF will also qualitatively discuss naturally occurring asbestos impacts as they relate to implementation of the proposed Master Plan. Long-Term Emissions. RBF will quantify vehicular and area source emissions and provide a comparison to the SCAQMD thresholds of significance. The emissions will be quantitatively derived utilizing the EMFAC2007 and URBEMIS2007 models. Project consistency with regional air quality plans will be evaluated, including the 200 7 Air Quality Management Plan for the South Coast Air Basin (2007 AQMP). Additionally, the analysis will evaluate whether the applicable land use and transportation control measures from the 2007 AQM P have been included in the project design. The consistency analysis will determine if the project would cause or contribute to a violation of an ambient air quality standard. Should project traffic warrant Carbon Monoxide Hotspot modeling, RBF will model intersections utilizing the BREEZE ROADS model. The analysis will be consistent with the Transportation Project-Level Carbon Monoxide Protocol, prepared by the Institute of Transportation Studies at the University of California, Davis. Localized Emissions. Consistent with the SCAQMD environmental justice program and Localized Significance Threshold (LST) methodologies, RBF will identify impacts using SCAQMD's mass daily thresholds to identify localized emissions impacts, if necessary. RBF will identify mitigation measures, if necessary, to reduce emissions to less than significant levels. Greenhouse Gas/Global Climate Change Analysis. Greenhouse Gas emissions will be addressed as provided by the City's Initial Study Checklist. Additionally, RBF will follow the approach described in the California Air Pollution Control Officers (CAPCOA) CEQA and Climate Change White Paper (White Paper) (January 2008) and CARB's Climate Change Proposed Scoping Plan (Scoping Plan)(October 2008). RB F will describe the regulatory development of AB 32, AB 1493, SB 97, SB 375, SB 1368, and Executive Order S-3-05. RBF will review the land use data associated with the proposed Historic Town Center Master Plan. Based on this review, RBF will prepare an inventory of the GHG emissions (i.e., nitrous oxide, methane, and carbon Page 13. EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF WORK dioxide) from both direct and indirect sources. The em issions inventory will be compiled consistent with the methodology prescribed by CARB in the Local Government Operations Protocol for the Quantification and Reporting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventories (dated September 28, 2008). RBF will also analyze the energy implications of the project pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21100(b)(3) and Appendix F of the CEQA Guidelines. These statutes and guidelines require an EIR to describe,where relevant,the wasteful, inefficient, and unnecessary consumption of energy caused by a project. The analysis will analyze energy consumption associated with short-term construction activities, long- term operations, buildings, and transportation. This section will also describe climate change effects on the project that could result in a physical impact (i.e., temperature change, water supply, flood control, etc.). RBF will work closely with the preparers of the Master Plan to incorporate strategies to reduce energy and water consumption, and to reduce vehic le miles traveled. RBF will further refine these efficiency and smart design strategies to quantitatively analyze their effectiveness in reducing GHG emissions. The analysis will also present a matrix summarizing the various greenhouse g as reduction measures that can be incorporated into the project to illustrate compliance with the greenhouse gas reduction targets associated AB 32 horizon years 2020 and 2050. The list of measures will be presented in term s of their applicability and percentage of GHG reduction. Finally, the analysis will assess the project's significance based upon the project's consistency with the California Attorney General's Recommended Mitigation Measures and the CA RB Scoping Plan. 5.2.5 NOISE Existing Conditions. RBF will review applicable local noise and land use compatibility criteria for the Historic Town Center Master Plan area. Standards regulating noise impacts will be discussed for land uses on and adjacent to the project site. RBF will utilize the community noise standards in the San Juan Capistrano General Plan Noise Element and City of San Juan Capistrano Municipal Code, Title 9, Land Use, Section 9- 3.531, Noise Standards. RBF will conduct a site visit throughout the Historic Town Center. During the site visit, RBF will conduct short- term noise level measurements throughout the project area. Noise monitoring equipment will consist of a Bruel & Kjasr model 2250 sound levet meter(SLM) equipped with Briiel & Kjaer pre-polarized freefield microphone. The results of the noise measurements will be post-processed and graphically illustrated with the Bruel & Kjmr Noise Explorer software. The noise monitoring survey will be conducted at up to eight separate to cations to establish baseline noise levels in the project area. In addition, noise measurements will be made within the project area to establish the noise levels from train operations. Noi se recording lengths are anticipated to require approximately 10 minutes at each location. The noise measurements will evaluate noise exposure due to traffic while accounting for local topography, shielding from existing structures, and variations in travel speed. Construction-Related Noise and Vibration. Construction would occur during implementation of the Master Plan. Noise impacts from construction sources will be analyzed based on the anticipated equipment to be used, length of a specific construction task, equipment power type (gasoline or diesel engine), horsepower, load factor, and percentage of time in use. The construction noise impacts will be evaluated in terms of maximum levels (Lmax) and hourly equivalent continuous noise levels (Leq) and the frequency of occurrence at adjacent sensitive locations. Analysis requirements will be based on the sensitivity of the area and the San Juan Capistrano General Plan Noise Element and Municipal Code specifications as well as the Federal Transit Administration's vibration analysis guidance. Stationary Noise Sources. Potential effects of stationary noise sources will be evaluated based on local land use compatibility standards. Compliance with applicable noise standards will be evaluated, with recommended Page 14. EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF WORK mitigation measures included where appropriate. Additionally, noise impacts to the surrounding uses will be analyzed. Traffic Noise. The proposed M aster Plan is anticipated to generate new vehicular traffic trips from future growth. On-and off-site noise impacts from vehicular traffic will be assessed using the U.S. Federal Hi ghway Traffic Noise Prediction Model (FHWA-RD-77-108). The analysis will focus on noise impacts associated with the development of the proposed Master Plan. Model input data will include average daily traffic volumes, dayinight percentages of autos, medium and heavy trucks, vehicle speeds, ground attenuation factors, and roadway widths. The 24-hour weighted Community Noise Equivalent Levels (CN EL)will be presented in a tabular format. Traffic parameters necessary for the model input will be obtained from the Traffic Impact Assessment.

OPTIONAL TASK: GEOTECHNICAL STUDY Complete a preliminary geotechnical study of the project area assessing geology, soils and seismicity as required by the Initial Study checklist. The primary geotechnical constraints within the Master Plan project area are anticipated to incl ude compressibility of near-surface soil; expansive near-surface soils; corrosive soil conditions; shallow groundwater; and seismic shaking and liquefaction potential. The study will be prepared by a Registered Engineering Geologist approved by the Public Works Department for the completion of such work. 5.2.7 HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY RBF will prepare the hydrology and water quality technical studies to be incorporated into the Master Plan and EIR documents. The scope of work has been developed to address the surf ace hydrology, drainage patterns and water quality impacts associated with the specific plan at a level of detail to satisfy the CEQA requirements, which include primarily (1) runoff water quantity, (2) drainage infrastructure requirements and (3) stormwater quality. Page 15. EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF WORK Site Review and Research Existing Reports. Provide research and investigation to compile existing literature and reports previously prepared regarding the tributary watershed and drainage systems impacting the approximately 31 acre site located in the City of San Juan Capistrano. Research shall include review of the City's Master Plan of Drainage and previous engineering hydrology and hydraulics studies, which specifically encompasses or address the site. This task also includes an initial discussion with City staff regarding the specific drainage requirements for the specific plan area. An initial site visit will be conducted to review the existing watershed conditions. Watershed Boundary Delineation. Prepare analysis of the existing watershed and drainage patterns associated with the proposed project boundary. Determine the local watershed subboundaries for the tributary drainage area in order to evaluate the existing drainage areas to each project site discharge point (there are several to the north and south on the site). Measure the drainage areas and the watershed parameters associated with the subareas for the different analysis. Identify critical concentration points to develop a "link- node" rational hydrology model. Provide watershed delineation for the proposed development, which includes only a single landuse plan. The Client will provide digital topography and conceptual grading plan to identify the drainage patterns. Existing Conditions Hydrologic Analysis. Prepare preliminary estimate peak runoff rates associated with the existing surface hydrology for the onsite watershed drainage area.. In addition the onsite.drainage boundar ies and subareas will be delineated, and results of the hydrology analysis will be summarized on a hydrology map. RBF will prepare the 2-, 5-, 10-, 25-, and 100-year frequency storms rational hydrology analysis for the onsite watershed. The analysis will utilize Orange County Hydrology procedures and criteria to develop peak discharges, which are consistent with the procedures outlined in the Orange County Hydrology Manual. Proposed Development Hydrology. Prepare preliminary developed condition surface hydrology analysis for the 31-acre project site based upon Orange County hydrology criteria and methodology to quantify the design runoff rates. Prepare a single rational hydrology analysis for a single proposed landu se plan for the specific plan. The analysis will develop peak discharges for the 2-, 5-, 10-, 25-, and 100-year rainfall event to satisfy the jurisdictional design requirements. Drainage subareas a nd patterns will be identified based upon the existing local storm drain system and grade and/or approved landuse concept pr ovided by the Client. Proposed Drainage Impacts and Mitigation Requirements. Prepare and evaluation of the preliminary drainage system requirements to provide the necessary level of flood protection and hydraulic conveyance. Preliminary horizontal alignments of facilities will be identified and estimate of the size requirements for hydraulic conveyance assuming uniform depth. Perform conceptual sizing of the detention basins to determine the necessary stormwater storage volume onsite, if mitigation is required, to attenuate the peak development flowrates to the existing conditions. Stormwater Quality Impacts and Mitigation Requirements. RBF will review the following items for the stormwater quality impact analysis: downstream receiving water status including beneficial uses and TMDLs, expected pollutants from the proposed project post-construction, local soils information, results of the hydrology analysis, and potential construction impacts. Mitigation will be recommended based on the results of the impact analysis. Since RBF does not have control over the site pl an, a suite of appropriate mitigation measures will be identified which could be utilized to meet the downstream receiving waters requirements and the project's pollutants of concern. Location and size of the facilities is specifically excluded from the scope of work. The requirements of the new NPDES construction permit and MS4 permits will also be discussed. Technical Report Preparation. P repare a written report to fulfill both the specific plan requirements and the CEQA technical study requirements. The report will summarize the drainage assessment requirements for the project, particularly focusing on the post projection watershed hydrologic and stormwater quality conditions. Report shall include discussions reviewing the drainage constraints, offsite and onsite hydrology, flooding Page 16. EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF WORK impacts, drainage design criteria, drainage infrastructure mitigation requirements, stormwater quality impacts and proposed stormwater quality mitigation.

A technical appendix shall be prepared which includes all hydrologic and hydraulic analysis for the site, analysis assumptions, and all reference documents. EXCLUSIONS: • Topography • Site Design • Geomorphic and/or stability assessment of downstream natural channels • Location and Sizing of BMPs (Water Quality Mitigation Measures) 5.2.8 HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS RBF will prepare a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) that examines the potential for hazardous materials to be present on the site.. The findings of the ESA will used to form the basis for the hazards and hazardous materials section of the EIR. Potential impacts will be evaluated in comparison to significance criteria. Performance standards and other practical mitigation measures will be prepared to mitigate identified significant impacts where appropriate. The focus of the hazard and hazard materials analysis will be on the potential for past uses to adversely impact construction and residential occupation phases of the project. The presence of hazardous constituents in the soils has the potential to affect the suitability of the site for residential use, construction methods and timing of development as well as human health and safety. 5.2.9 PUBLIC SERVICES RBF will describe the existing utility infrastructure and public services that serve the City and planning area based on information included in previous studies, and information available from the utility providers and City service providers. The following utilities and services will be evaluated: schools, police, fire, recreation and parks, wastewater, storm water, water, and non-potable/ recycled water. RBF will work with City staff and representatives of each facility and service provider in analyzing the impact of the proposed project on each of these services. The need for coordination among facility and service providers for on- or off-site improvements will be addressed to ensure that any potentially significant impacts are mitigated to less-than-significant levels. Potential impacts associated with utilities and services will be identified mitigation measures will be recommended. 5.2.10 AESTHETICS RBF will evaluate and discuss potential visual impacts associated with the Amended Master Plan. The evaluation will address such issues as compatibility with existing scale and architectural character of the surrounding vicinity, potential view obstruction, and potential light and glare impacts, and consistency with the City's Architectural Design Guidelines for the historic downtown. RBF has assumed no visual simulations will be prepared. 5.2.11 CULTURAL AND PALEONTOLOGICAL RESOURCES A number of cultural resource studies have been com plated for projects in the Downtown area. These studies along with the General Plan and General P Ian EIR, will provide sufficient information for the Program EIR. RBF will utilize these resources to prepare the EIR section. Page 17. EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF WORK OPTIONAL TASK: PREPARE A CULTURAL AND PALEONTOLOGICAL RESOURCES SURVEY Prepare a cultural resources survey following accepted industry standards to identify known/potential archaeological and historic resources w ithin the HTC Master Plan Area pursuant to City Council Policy 601, and analyze potentially significant environmental impacts that may result from implementation of the HTC Master Plan. The survey will include a records and literature search at the South Central Coastal Information Center(SCCIC) at California State University, Fullerton, a Sacred Lands File search with the California Native American Heritage Commission, and background research at appropriate repositories and use sources appropriate to the task. Conduct a paleontological records search through the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History (although it is not anticipated that paleontological resources have been orwill be uncovered in the project area). The results of the records search will be documented in the Draft EIR, with mitigation measures if the records search indicates known or potential presence of paleontological resources that m ay be affected as a result of HTC Master Plan implementation. The findings/conclusions of the records and literature searches, cultural resources survey, impact analysis and mitigation measures will be presented in a technical report prepared per accepted industry standards,with copies of relevant documentation (and a confidential appendix as necessary), and shall be summarized in the Cultural Resources section of the Draft EIR. Coordinate any necessary consultation processes with appropriate entities to comply with all applicable federal and state laws (including but not limited to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and California Senate Bill 18 as necessary). 5.2.12 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS In accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15130, RBF will discuss cumulative impacts for each environmental issue area identified above, focusing on cumulative impacts and levels of severity in the project area at a quantitative and qualitative level.

TASK 5.3 ALTERNATIVES Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6, RBF will provide an analysis of a "reasonable range"of alternatives, comparing environmental impacts of each alternative in each impact area to the project. For each alternative, RBF will provide an analysis of impacts to environmental resources. One important element of the Alternatives section will be an impact matrix that will offer a comparison of the varying levels of impact of each alternative being analyzed. This matrix will be prepared in a format to allow decision-makers a reference that will be easily understood, while providing a calculated, where feasible, accurate comparison of each alternative. The alternatives section will conform to both Section 15126.6 of the CEQA Guidelines and to recent and applicable court cases. RBF will discuss as required by the CEQA Guidelines, the advantages and disadvantages of each alternative and the reasons for rejecting or recommending the project alternatives stated. A summary of the various alternatives and associated impacts will be provided as part of the EIR Executive Summary. A maximum of three alternatives, including the No Project Alternative required by CEQA and a mitigated alternative, will be analyzed. The selection of alternatives to be analyzed will be developed with City staff. The alternatives section will culminate with the selection of the environmentally superior alternative in accordance with CEQA requirements. Page 18. EXHIBIT"A" SCOPE OF WORK The alternatives will be based in part on the significant impacts of the project that are identified during the Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures phase of the Draft EIR process. It is assumed that the alternatives will be at a qualitative level. TASK 5.4 CEQA-REQUIRED ASSESSMENT CONCLUSIONS RBF will prepare the appropriate conclusions to f ulfill CEQA requirements by providing an assessment of several mandatory impact categories, including: • Growth-inducing impacts; • Significant unavoidable m pacts; • Significant irreversible environmental changes; and • Effects found not to be significant. TASK 5.5 PREPARE DRAFT EIR 5.5.1 ADMINISTRATIVE DRAFT EIR The information developed in Tasks 5.1 through 5.5 will be organized into an Administrative Draft EIR. The EIR is anticipated to include the following components: • Introduction • Executive Summary • Project Description • Environmental Analysis • Alternatives to the Proposed Project • CEQA-Required Assessment Conclusions • List of Persons and Organizations Contacted • Bibliography • Technical Appendices (as needed) Five (5) hard copies and one CD copy of the Administrative Draft EIR will be submitted to the Planning Division for review and comment. 5.5.2 SCREEN-CHECK DRAFT EIR Working from a single set of consolidated and non-contradictory comments (to be provided by planning staff), RBF will amend the Administrative Draft EIR. Five (5) copies of the screen-check Draft EIR with technical appendices will be provided to City staff to verify that all requested changes have been m ade and all appendix materials, references, and final graphics are acceptable. 5.5.3 PUBLIC REVIEW DRAFT EIR Working from a single set of consolidated and non-contradictory comments (to be provided by planning staff), RBF will amend the screen-check Draft EIR. Forty-five (45) copies of the Draft EIR will be distributed to responsible agencies, the public, and the State Clearinghouse. RBF will distribute the Draft EIR to the State Clearinghouse as well as State agencies (as specified by the City). A digital version in portable document format (pdf) will also be created for City staff to post on the City's web site. One electronic copy of the Draft EIR will be provided for Planning Division use. Page 19. EXHIBIT"A" SCOPE OF WORK TASK 5.6 PREPARE RESPONSE TO COMMENTS Upon close of the public review period on the Draft EIR, prepare a Response to Comments (RTC) Document. The RTC Document will include: 1. A list of persons, organizations, and public agencies commenting on the Draft EIR; 2. Written comments received and minutes of any public hearing where verbal comments were received; 3. Responses to environmental comments raised in the review process; 4. Any necessary text, table or figure changes to the Draft EIR. Discuss the best approach to the responses document with City staff at a meeting following the close of the comment period. 5.6.1 ADMINISTRATIVE DRAFT RESPONSE TO COMMENTS (RTC) RBF will formulate and provide responses to ea ch comment on the Draft EIR, including review period comments received from the public and agencies and com pile them into an Administrative Draft Response to Comments (RTC) Document. Should an unexpectedly large volume of comments be submitted, an adjustment in the budget to cover work beyond the assumed level may be needed. If this is the case, we will submit a written request to modify the scope and budget. For budgeting purposes, we have assumed 40 hours to prepare response to comments. Ten (10) hard copies and on a electronic copy of the Administrative Draft RTC will be provided for review by City staff. 5.6.2 SCREEN-CHECK RTC After review by City staff and the transmittal of one set of consolidated, non-contradictory comments, RBF will amend the administrative draft RTC and prepare a screen-check version of the RTC document, which will include revisions to the Draft EIR (if necessary) comments received, and the responses to comments for final review by City staff. Five (5) copies of the screen-check Final EIR will be provided for review by City staff. 5.6.3 FINAL RTC Upon completion of the Final RTC, RBF will provide the City with 45 bound copies of the Final RTC document. The RTC document together with the Draft EIR will comprise the Final EIR. A digital version in portable document format (pdf)will also be created for City staff to post on the City's web site. One electronic copy of the RTC document will be provided for City use. TASK 5.7 MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM RBF will prepare a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting P rogram. Identify responsibility for implementing and monitoring each mitigation measure, along with monitoring triggers and reporting frequency requirements subject to approval by City staff. Monitoring will be dovetailed with existing processes of project development and review. Page 20. EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF WORK An administrative draft Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program will be submitted to City staff for review with the Administrative RTC document. TASK 5.8 MEETINGS AND PUBLIC HEARINGS Attend a maximum of eight (8) meetings and/or public hearings, including the project kick-off meeting; one EIR public scoping meeting; in-person meetings with City staff; and public hearings. RBF Staff would be available throughout the EIR preparation period to meet at the request of the City within the parameters defined in the previous sentence. Any meetings and/or public hearings beyond the maximum identified would be outside this scope of work, and would be billed on a time and materials basis. The fee per additional meeting costs would be defined and approved by City staff prior to attendance. Page 21. CITY OF SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO i VILLAGE PARTNERS.

Additional services must be requested in writing by the Agency and the Consultant shall submit monthly invoices on a time and materials basis in accordance with Rate Schedules for Field Paoli Architects and Village Partners Inc. (included as part of this Exhibit). Excerpt from the Scope of Services section, Village Partners/ Field Paoli Proposal, November 12, 2009, Page 23 & 24: ASSUMPTIONS AND EXCLUSIONS The following services are not included in this scope of work, but may be undertaken by the consultant team as additional services at the request of City Staff.These may include, but are not limited to, the following: 1. Printing multiple copies of reports and documents. Consultant team shall provide one hard copy and electronic files of all deliverables listed within the task descriptions. 2. Attendance at public, stakeholder or committee meetings in addition to those described in this scope of work. 3. Unusual or unanticipated data collection, search, or analysis, or revisions of data after sources and reference points have been agreed upon. 4. Increases in rates for time and direct costs if project extends beyond two years from contract inception through no fault of the consultant team, and for extra time required to perform services as a result of suspension or delay of work exceeding 120 days through no fault of the consultant team. 5. Redesign and reformatting of documents for publication after approval of draft layouts. 6. Subsequent revisions of documents that are requested by City Staff after one round of consolidated comments on each of the drafts are submitted to the consultant team. This scope of work allows for a single iteration of review of each draft with one consolidated set of comments; subsequent iterations are considered additional work. Correction of the consultant team's errors shall not be considered additional work. 7. Preparation of detailed architectural or engineering drawings, specifications, renderings or physical scale models. 8. Preparation of a detailed phasing or implementation strategy. 9. Identifying funding sources or financing methods. 10. Computer modeling for infrastructure analysis 11. SB 610 report(WSA)for infrastructure analysis 12. Reimbursable expenses are assumed to be in the range of $20,000 to $25,000 (or 4% to 5% of total fees) EXHIBIT B AS-NEEDED ADDITIONAL SERVICES The following assumptions and exclusions are specific to the CEQA process for Task 5: 1. City will develop the mailing list for distribution of the EIR and notices. The City will be responsible for newspaper cost of publication of notices, which will be billed directly to the City, so they are not included in the proposed budget. 2. Photocopy costs included in the proposal are for the specified number of copies of deliverables and reasonable incidental and in-team photocopying. If additional copies of deliverables are needed, they can be provided with an amendment to the proposed budget. 3. Review cycles for preliminary documents are presented in the scope of work. Additional review cycles or additional versions of administrative drafts are assumed to not be needed. 4. The proposed work addresses CEQA requirements of the proposed action. Work related to NEPA compliance, Section 404 compliance, or other permitting processes is not included (although these can be added, as needed, with a contract amendment). Work concludes at the acceptance by the City of the final deliverable. 5. The budget is based on com pletion of work within an agreed upon schedule. If substantial delay occurs, an amendment of the budget would be warranted to accommodate additional project management time and other costs. Substantial delay is normally defined as 90 days or more. 6. The extent of public comment on a Draft EIR is not predictable. The proposed budget includes a reasonable, preliminary estimate time to respond to comments. RBF will consult with the City after the valuation of the comments to determine if the preliminarily estimated budget is sufficient. An excessive amount of comments is generally considered to be more than 25 commenting agencies/individuals and/or over 200 comments that require answers other than "Comment is noted. 7. Costs have been allocated to tasks to determine the total budget. RBF may reallocate costs among tasks, as needed, as long as the total budget is not exceeded. 8. Once the proposed project description, baseline, and alternatives are approved by the City for analysis in the Draft EIR, it is assumed they will not change thereafter. If changes requiring revisions to analysis or rewriting of EIR information occur, an amendment of the budget would be warranted. 9. The CEQA statutes or guidelines may change during the course of this EIR. If amendments require redoing work already performed or substantially increasing effort, a contract amendment may be warranted. Page 2.
