During the first phase of the project, the Wallace Group team prepared a Feasibility Study/Technical Memo to determine the ultimate lane configuration for the Prado Road/South Higuera intersection, review of the hydraulics of San Luis Creek at the existing bridge including the effects of widening the existing three span bridge or replacing it with a single span structure, and the consideration of an existing 24-inch gravity sewer line suspended from the existing bridge structure that impinges on the creek’s hydraulic capacity. As part of final design our team prepared the survey mapping, utility coordination and design, landscape architecture/ streetscape design, (PS&E) for the Prado Road Bridge Widening Project. Project Outcome Wallace Group is currently working on Phase 3 PS&E. Description of Services Wallace Group contracted with the City of Salinas to begin preliminary engineering services for a two mile stretch of East Boronda Road bordering the northern city limits from Dartmouth Avenue to Independence Boulevard. East Boronda Road is a major arterial and serves a combination of urban residential and agricultural areas, nearby schools and commercial retail zones. The City has had a history of stormwater overflowing agricultural ditches to the north causing localized flooding and depositing large amounts of sediment within the roadway. This project will modify the ditches to intercept and convey up to the 100-year, 24-hour storm event to localized retention/detention basins to treat stormwater runoff and to mitigate peak flows to help maintain capacity within the existing downstream storm drain system. Along with these offsite flood control improvements, onsite street flows will be intercepted by dry swales within the median of the roadway to treat the stormwater runoff from 95th percentile storm event and provide peak flow management for the larger storm events. $146,327 2015 to present This project is currently in the final design stage. II Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S 7I S U B M I T T A L F O R M S WALLACE GROUP EXPERIENCE II Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S 8 Wallace Group began as a one-person, home-based engineering business in 1984 and has steadily grown into a multi-disciplinary engineering and planning firm. Today the company is a cohesive team of more than 70 professionals and includes services in Civil and Transportation Engineering, Water Resources, Surveying/GIS Solutions, Construction Management, Landscape Architecture, Mechanical Engineering, Planning and Public Works Administration. The reputation of Wallace Group is founded upon our service to each client with the utmost respect and professionalism. Our experience in public works projects includes water resource engineering (including water, sewer, and stormwater), construction management and inspection, landscape architecture, civil and transportation engineering, surveying, GIS, Right of Way services, jurisdictional and physical planning, mechanical engineering, public works administration and contract administration. In all cases, we work with our clients’ team as an extension of their staff, rather than a separate entity allowing us to better understand and serve our clients’ needs. We have 40 years of experience working with public agencies on a multitude of public works projects from the planning stages through construction close out. Our familiarity and depth of knowledge with the public works process will provide the City with a Team that can support all aspects of the City’s water and wastewater planning and engineering needs. We know that building better communities requires sound planning and innovative engineering. Wallace Group provides a full spectrum of design and development services which allows us to thoroughly plan and deliver any project. Our engineers can creatively plan both public and private facilities, giving us the ability to integrate the interrelationship of land, water, and transportation circulation in our projects, while considering smart growth, sustainability, and economic viability. We take great care in working with the natural lay of the land to maximize cost-effective sustainability while enhancing physical characteristics. II Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S 9 City of Monterey ADA Ramp and Intersection ImprovementsMonterey, CA The City of Monterey passed a 1% local sales tax measure to support improvements to their storm drain, transportation infrastructure, and ensure compliance with ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act). Wallace Group worked with the City of Monterey on the design for roadway improvements, including the replacement of non-compliant ADA curb ramps and intersection improvements consisting of directional ADA curb ramps, pavement rehabilitation, and signal upgrade work. We then prepared the PS&E packages for over seventy (70) intersections throughout the City. The various PS&E design packages were developed to meet PROWAG, Department of Justice, and Caltrans 2015 standards. The strict nature of ADA compliance demands a rigorous design and engineering approach. Wallace Group coordinated with the City to develop and implement a surveying scope that was efficiently targeted to the needs of the design. This included focusing the survey measurements on the ramps themselves, and the immediate area around each ramp. This led to a tighter interval of cross section mapping near and through the ramp with each interval getting larger once outside of the critical design area. Our approach directly benefits the design team by reducing the amount of interpolative design grades, which helps ensure less field adjustments required to keep the new construction compliant with ADA requirements throughout construction. It is imperative that our plans show detailed grades along the flowline, top of curb, and through the ramps so that the effort during construction is limited and to guarantee that the curb ramps are ADA compliant. Garden Street RedesignSan Luis Obispo, CA The City of San Luis Obispo is committed to creating a walkable downtown. The City partnered with a local developer to bring the pedestrian friendly vision to Garden Street between Marsh and Higuera. Garden Street was a typical downtown street section with 10 foot lanes, 6 foot sidewalks and 7 foot wide parallel parking on both sides of the street. Wallace Group was selected to redesign and repurpose Garden Street. The street is now one-way, includes angled parking, ten foot wide sidewalks, addition bicycle parking, and new street trees with grates and guards. The crossings at Garden and Marsh and Garden and Higuera have been improved with bulb outs, brick pavers, and a lighted crosswalk on Higuera. The City standard Mission style sidewalks were installed with color concrete and a band of tile. Drainage was a challenge for this section of Garden Street. The existing road cross section was crowned; however, the road section needed to be inverted to accommodate a rolled curb on the west side of the street. A concrete v-gutter was constructed and a new drainage inlet was placed at the south end of Garden Street. Garden Street also accommodates an ADA accessible parking space and a loading zone for the businesses. Garden Street is an older street in the downtown core and as such, the project encountered a few previously undiscovered drainage features and even a basement! It was discovered during construction that the existing sidewalk was a concrete lid or roof to an existing basement that extended into the street. Wallace Group worked with the building owner, the City, the contractor, and the concrete suppler to grind the existing basement lid/roof to meet current ADA standards and place a thin concrete overlay on top of the lid/roof. The concrete overlay was further held in place with a specific concrete glue product. The concrete was so thin that a special concrete mix design was necessary and was successfully implemented. REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS II Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S 10 Pine Street Long Term Parking Paso Robles, CA The Pine Street parking lot, located in downtown Paso Robles east of Pine Street between Sixth and Seventh Street, offers a new option for long and short-term parking in the area. The improvement of this parking lot provides 43 parking spaces, two of which are designated to be ADA accessible and also includes improving the street frontage of the site and construction of a new pedestrian access bridge. Wallace Group was retained by the City of Paso Robles to prepare the Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) package for a long-term parking lot. This over $600,000 capital improvement project provides additional long-term parking facilities and community access to the City’s Historic Depot Commercial Center at Pine Street. The improvements are a combination of new on-street parking and an off-street lot to include motorcycle parking, bicycle racks, street lighting, and utility stub-outs for future connection of electric vehicle charging stations. In addition, pedestrian access to adjacent roadways will be improved with new ADA compliant walkways. The lot was designed to maximize parking while providing landscape amenities, protecting existing oak trees, and meeting the new storm water post-construction requirements. Low impact development (LID) features, with an emphasis on storm water quality, water conservation, and natural hydrology, include the placement of approximately 8,000 square-feet of pervious concrete, pervious pavers, and landscaping designed to retain and infiltrate storm water. While onsite, Wallace Group verified that the pervious concrete test panels were placed using approved mixing proportions, materials, procedures, and specialized equipment, as proposed for the project. Wallace Group provided photo recordation during the concrete installation and maintained job records that properly documented the concrete placement and location of each concrete load delivered. Professional surveying services for the improvements included topographic, boundary, and Right of Way surveying compiled to serve as the base map for the design of the project. As the project moved into construction, Wallace Group also provided the construction staking through the City, while coordinating the effort with the general contractor. Part of the construction surveying services included locating and rebuilding monuments that were in jeopardy of being destroyed by construction and preparing the appropriate Corner Records documents to preserve the record of these monuments. II Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S 11 Golden Hill Road/Union Road Intersection ImprovementsPaso Robles, CA Wallace Group provided feasibility through final design and construction support services to the City of Paso Robles for the improvements at the Union Road/Golden Hill Road intersection. In 2017, we developed various concepts as part of the Development Impact Fee (DIF) Program update for the City, and this effort looked at long term needs. In 2019, Wallace Group helped the City develop the concept for a near-term cost-effective solution to the traffic operational issues at the intersection. The innovative, dog-bone-shaped, single-lane design avoided the need for land acquisition and lessened the impact on utilities. The Wallace Group team analyzed traffic operations for the intersection and developed photo and video simulations of the proposed improvements. In the final design phase, the Wallace Group team provided: field densification survey, utility design and coordination, geotechnical assessment, public outreach exhibits, storm water quality, drainage, street lighting, landscape, and roadway design services. The roundaboutwas designed to accommodate trucks, buses, and passenger vehicles. In a latestage of the design phase, modifications were made to accommodate a 107’ truck and trailer with 4.5” vertical clearance. Construction was completed in June 2023. Wallace Group worked closely with the City, Contractor, and Construction Management team to provide comprehensive detour planning for the intersection closure and additional design support services throughout the construction phase. II Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S 12 El Camino Real Downtown Infrastructure Enhancement PlanAtascadero, CA The El Camino Real Downtown Infrastructure Enhancement Plan (DIEP) is a complete street project that incorporates safe access for all users including pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists and public transit users of all ages and abilities. The project proposes a road diet from four lanes to two lanes with a center parking area modeled after the “ramblas” in Barcelona. The objectives of this project include providing safer crossings for pedestrians, increasing parking to support economic growth, and creating an attractive destination for the community. The center parking areas are flexible spaces that could be used as event spaces during street closures. The Project limits include the El Camino Real corridor from Highway 41 to Rosario Avenue in Atascadero, California. The concept design went through several iterations of public outreach and was approved by City Council in 2020. In 2021, the City hired the Wallace Group team to lead the project through to final construction documents. The team consists of Earth Systems, KTUA, Central Coast Transportation Consultants, and Kittelson & Associates providing geotechnical, streetscaping, electrical design, and traffic review support. Wallace Group performed topographic and right of way survey mapping, refined the concept with additional community outreach, coordinated with utility companies, prepared roadway and drainage design including bioretention and stormwater planter facilities, and recently submitted the final PS&E to the City. Construction is anticipated to begin in June 2024. East Boronda Road Widening Salinas, CA Wallace Group contracted with the City of Salinas to begin preliminary engineering services for a two mile stretch of East Boronda Road bordering the northern city limits from Dartmouth Avenue to Independence Boulevard. East Boronda Road is a major arterial and serves a combination of urban residential and agricultural areas, nearby schools and commercial retail zones. The City has had a history of stormwater overflowing agricultural ditches to the north causing localized flooding and depositing large amounts of sediment within the roadway. This project will modify the ditches to intercept and convey up to the 100-year, 24-hour storm event to localized retention/detention basins to treat stormwater runoff and mitigate peak flows to help maintain capacity within the existing downstream storm drain system. Along with these offsite flood control improvements, onsite street flows will be intercepted by dry swales within the median of the roadway to treat the stormwater runoff from 95th percentile storm event and provide peak flow management for the larger storm events. II Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S 13 Stormwater Master PlanSalinas, CA The City of Salinas retained Wallace Group to prepare a Stormwater Master Plan for the City, to prioritize existing and future storm drain system needs through: repair, rehabilitation, replacement, and new facility installation. Wallace Group conducted a comprehensive analysis of the City’s storm drain system, which included a filed survey of over 1,150 storm drain manholes along the City’s main storm drain trunk line. The attributes of the storm drain system were compiled into a database for the preparation of a GIS based hydrologic and hydraulic model of the storm drain system. Existing flood prone areas were identified based on discussions with City Staff, and each location was field surveyed, reviewed in-field, and analyzed in detail. Based on results of the GIS modeling and problem area analysis, Wallace Group screened alternatives and developed a program of ranked capital improvements. Each recommended CIP included the recommended project description, project component, and budget level cost estimates. Since several areas of concern were identified by the City due to flooding, these projects ranked highest on the priority list for CIPs. Most of the projects identified include replacing undersized drainage inlets, replacing existing siphons, and increasing the frequency of inlets along major roads with flooding issues. Mid-Higuera Bypass San Luis Obispo, California San Luis Obispo Creek provides a scenic and recreational resource for the City of San Luis Obispo, and source for area flooding. Creek channel capacity in the Mid-Higuera area is constrained by dense vegetation, bridge crossings, and significant development in the natural floodplain. Proposed improvements for this stretch of the Creek are high flow bypass channels and benches constructed above the ordinary high water mark of the existing channel in combination with vegetation management to increase conveyance. Wallace Group prepared conceptual construction plans and a Preliminary Design Report, and is currently preparing a Final Channel Design Report and Construction Improvement Plans for this area of the Creek. Wallace Group also provided engineering support to the County of San Luis Obispo for preparation of the Supplemental Environmental Impact Report for the project. II Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S 14 Prado Road Bridge WideningSan Luis Obispo, CA Wallace Group was selected by the City of San Luis Obispo to prepare the Plans, Specifications, and Estimate for the Prado Road Bridge Widening Project. The existing bridge is a constriction point for vehicles traveling along Prado Road between South Higuera and US 101 and is in need of widening for current and future traffic volumes. The project also includes non-motorized features, such as a bike path connection under the bridge and a cutting-edge protected intersection design. During the first phase of the project, the Wallace Group team prepared a Feasibility Study/Technical Memo to determine the ultimate lane configuration for the Prado Road and South Higuera intersection, review of the hydraulics of San Luis Creek at the existing bridge including the effects of widening the existing three span bridge or replacing it with a single span structure, and the consideration of an existing 24-inch gravity sewer line suspended from the existing bridge structure that impinges on the creek’s hydraulic capacity. The Feasibility Study/Technical Memo provided City staff with the background information needed to inform the City Council on the direction of the final design. We recommended that the City replace the existing three span bridge structure with a single span bridge that will offer protection to the existing 24-inch diameter gravity sewer line in times of high flow. The single span bridge also improves the creek’s hydraulics. Preliminary plans for the roadway widening and the extension of the Bob Jones Trail along San Luis Creek and underneath the new bridge structure have been prepared. Based on our Phase 1 work and continuous coordination with Caltrans Local Assistance, the replacement of the existing bridge was approved. Wallace Group completed the PA&ED phase and has secured bridge type selection concurrence from Caltrans and is now in final design. As part of final design our team prepared the: survey mapping, utility coordination and design, landscape architecture/streetscape design, Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) for the Prado Road Bridge Widening Project. We provided large scale ground-survey mapping and roadway design for approximately 2,500 feet of City arterial with Right of Way research of adjacent frontages and approximately 1,000 feet of creek corridor. The design includes utilities, hardscape, bridge features, sewer and storm structure inverts, striping and found survey monuments. The mapping specific to the bridge structure included a detailed survey of the bridge columns and utilities attached to the bridge structure. We also provided public outreach and multi-disciplinary project management for a large team. Wallace Group services have included topographic survey, grading design, hydraulic analy- sis, technical design reports, as well as presentations to the City and the County Zone 9 Ad- visory Committee. Wallace Group partnered with Padre Associates for mapping of existing trees and the ordinary high water mark in the project area. We refined the City’s HEC-RAS hydraulic model with a survey of the Creek, and designed the high flow bypass channels to maximize creek channel capacity while minimizing impact to the native vegetation in the Creek. The design had to consider numerous project constraints, including existing struc- tures and utilities, and a proposed bike path corridor. The Final Construction Improvement Plans will also include earthwork volumes and grading limits, identification of likely dewa- tering locations and creek crossings required for construction, as well as construction haul routes. II Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S 15 Shell Beach Road Shared Use Path ExtensionShell Beach, California Completed by the City of Pismo Beach in 2020, the existing Shell Beach Road shared use path from Terrace Avenue to Cliff Avenue provides a safe and efficient pass through for this busy visitor-serving corridor. To the North of the existing path, there are a variety of roadway sections that include higher traffic speeds, narrow bike lanes and sidewalk gaps. This project expands the multi modal transportation network by adding 1.4 miles of shared use path from Spyglass Drive north to a park-n-ride facility at Avila Beach Drive, a short distance to the existing Bob Jones Trail trail head.

The City is looking for these qualified consultants to work with City staff on storm drain infrastructure, bridge maintenance, erosion control projects, emergency storm response projects, roadway construction and reconstruction design, sidewalk and curb ramp design, and parking lot maintenance projects. The City will be retaining these firms on an on-call basis for a contract term of four years. Wallace Group is a full-service engineering firm that provides services in civil & transportation, water resources, mechanical, public works administration, construction management & inspection, survey, and landscape architecture and is interested in supporting the City on many of these projects. For those services we do not provide, we team with companies who share like-minded company values and produce high quality work products. At Wallace Group, we understand that each project is unique, and we endeavor to understand our client’s needs to ensure that they are receiving the highest quality service to meet the public’s expectation that each project is delivered on-time and on-budget. The following provides an overview of our management approach and work program. Once a project is defined, we will work directly with the City to modify thedevelop a scope to meet the specific needs of the client and the project. WORK PROGRAM Our work program for City projects begins with purposeful Project Management. A large element of providing the City with the best level of service is getting the right staff and resources on a project. The team and the individuals assigned to a project are chosen based on the individual project requirements and City project manager working relationships. We understand the importance of keeping the same team together throughout the life of the project for continuity and to be cost effective. At the onset of our projects, we bring together KEY key members of our client and consultant team to review the agreed upon scope and to enhance understanding of expectations and specific needs for the project. We will schedule coordination and progress meetings as appropriate to fit the details of the specific project and confirm any special requests the agencies may have to comply with applicable funding requirements. We discuss the details of the key investigative analysis including existing information, software requirements and compatibility with the City’s data needs. This initial process formalizes the project team and includes a core process of providing meeting agendas, notes, progress reporting, a project contact list and other tools as needed. During the progress meetings, we will typically go through a variety of topics such as the status of the project, highlight any items that need to be resolved with outside agencies, strategies to solve potential issues, and discuss the schedule and budget. Our emphasis on effective project management is communication and responsiveness. Our office is less than 10 minutes from the City of SLO Public Works office, and we can meet on short notice. Our project management procedures call for monthly briefs and clearly written status updates provided to the client as part of our scheduling and cost control. II I W O R K P R O G R A M 27 On any given assignment, Valerie Huff, as your client manager, will work with the City project manager to put together the right team of professionals from our pool of staff and extended team members to meet the needs of the project and the agency. An important component of working with a diverse group of agencies and projects is the ability to recognize project needs and align the right skill sets to meet those needs. Once a project team has been established, we will strive to keep this team on the project to completion to provide efficient continuity for the client. CIVIL ENGINEERING DESIGN The work program that we anticipate for Civil Engineering design projects is a straightforward approach to preparing a Plans, Specifications and Estimate (PS&E) package. However, one aspect of the work which we pay particular attention to is obtaining a full understanding of the City’s needs and approach to projects. We know that public works is not just engineering design – it may be that there is a need for neighborhood input, or a unique requirement of the funding program, or a particular environmental concern. It is our goal to understand all the aspects that are needed to make a project successful and to incorporate them into the products delivered. We are also well versed in preparing PS&E packages according to the format that the City uses when it prepares its own in-house projects. This produces a set of contract documents that the contractors, City inspectors and construction managers are all familiar with. This further enhances our ability to be efficient in preparing well-coordinated plans and special provisions. One of our goals is to anticipate staff needs and to perform our work in such a way that we address these needs as seamlessly as possible. Our approach to a typical Civil Engineering Design Project will include the following: Scoping Phase Before we begin work, we will prepare a scope with a list of key work items, a schedule that includes turn-around times for City staff input and review, a list of any sub-consultants needed for the work, a cost proposal, and any additional tasks to be reviewed and approved by the City’s Project Manager. An initial scoping meeting will be held at the start of the project with City staff and, if necessary, other stakeholders to obtain input regarding the project requirements. Information gathered at the meeting will be memorialized in a written memo to confirm project goals and understandings. Preliminary Design Phase We place a large emphasis on the preliminary design phase. We know that the public has high expectations of the City, and that those expectations include obtaining input from all concerned. The extent of this effort varies with the project, but the intent is always the same – make sure all expectations are understood and the project is executed successfully; all input is obtained, and develop a project concept that is technically sound, practical, implementable, and well balanced. It is important to perform thorough research of the project components and identify potential conflicts or hurdles early in the project development process. Specific tasks could include: • Records research, including City records and utilities• City/State/Federal code requirements II I W O R K P R O G R A M 28 • Contacting affected utility companies• Topographic and/or boundary surveys if needed• Geotechnical or Potholing investigations if needed• Site review, site photographs• Public meetings• Concept Drawings• Environmental Document Review At this stage that we will carefully review project constructability and the viability of the proposed design to achieve project goals. We place a strong emphasis on review at this stage of the project, as identification of issues early on is what keeps a project aligned with project goals to successful completion. Final Design Phase During the final design phase, we prepare all required technical studies, and complete the PS&E package. The City has developed a standard approach to the preparation of PS&E packages for Capital Improvement Projects. Our approach to plan preparation will be to prepare our PS&E package according to the City’s standard format, using the City provided AutoCAD title sheet and additional layout sheets per City Engineering Standards Appendix F. The City special provision format is based on modified Caltrans Standard Specifications, and we are very familiar with both the Caltrans Standard Specifications and Special Provisions, and the City’s Standard Specifications and Special Provisions. We understand that the special provisions are subject to frequent updates by the City, and we will make sure we are working with the most current up-to-date version provided by City staff. Our 50% submittal will include plans, with the major design details resolved, special provisions for items of work and a preliminary engineer’s opinion of probable construction costs. At this stage, the 50% design package will be provided with a thorough QA/QC review by a senior level staff member. Depending on the nature of the Project, a constructability review is also performed at this stage of design development. Our Final Draft PS&E Submittal (90%) would include the final plans, completed technical special provisions, and a final engineer’s opinion of probable construction costs. At the time of the 90% submittal the entire PS&E package will have been through a complete QA/QC review by a senior level staff member.Once we receive final comments from the City, we will prepare the final 100% bid package for the City to advertise. This final bid package includes the plan, specifications, and construction estimates signed and stamped by the engineer of record. After construction work is complete, record plans can be prepared based on received red lines, and submitted to the City. The Wallace Group team will be available to the City throughout construction to provide engineering construction support to the City’s construction management staff. We will be available to review contractor submittals, respond to Requests for Information (RFI’s), and visit the project construction site as needed.At the completion of construction, we will prepare Record Drawings based on changes provided by the City’s construction management staff. QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAMOur Quality Assurance Program is based upon one of our Core Values: We have a passion for quality and excellence in our work, services, and products. Our internal review policy calls for a formal written peer review of three stages of the project. The QA/QC review for a project is performed by senior level registered engineers. We combine this with our project management procedures and focus on responsiveness and client communication for maintaining a high-quality project. II I W O R K P R O G R A M 29 The three stages of project review are Preliminary Design, 50%, and 90% and 100% of project progress. At each stage, there is a comprehensive review of project constraints, design parameters, potential conflicts, environmental constraints, and recognition of existing features and how they impact the project design and construction. The purpose of the Preliminary Design review is to verify:• Essential design information and constraints have been collected, evaluated, and understood.• The design team is familiar with the site and the design intent.• The intended plan set has been established and is consistent with the scope of work.• Major design constraints are understood.• The CAD file has been properly set up, and complies with City Engineering Standards The purpose of the 50% review is to verify:• Essential design information and constraints (including Right of Way and environmental) have been collected, evaluated, and incorporated into the PS&E package.• Major design issues are addressed in the design.• Appropriate analyses have been documented, including constructability reviews.• The design plans are being efficiently prepared and are in line with the project scope of work.• The list of special provisions covers the major items of work.• The items list is consistent with the plans and specifications. The purpose of the 90% and 100% review is to verify:• The plan set is complete, biddable, and ready for construction.• All reports are complete.• Prior comments have been addressed.• A complete PS&E review is completed to make sure all documents are consistent and reflect any conditions as a result of Right of Way negotiations, environmental review and permitting, technical recommendations, and geotechnical recommendations. We have worked with many public agencies throughout the company’s history. We understand that agencies operate under tight budget constraints and the number of Public Works projects needing funds frequently exceeds available funding sources. Working closely with the Public Works Department and reviewing the project in three stages allows the project design team to identify constraints, issues, and concerns well before the project is advertised for bid. By teaming with the agency and integrating them with our Quality Assurance program, we can assure Public monies are being spent in a cost-effective manner. SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED BY CITY• Obtain the environmental document.• Pay all permit fees.• Obtain permits for creek-related work from regulatory agencies.• Obtain temporary or permanent easements.• Complete staff reports for approval. • Advertise and award construction contracts.• Provide construction management—Wallace Group would be happy to offer construction management services as part of any Project. However, we understand the City may provide construction management/administration services or contract other consultants for this service. Wallace Group may be available to support the City with these additional services, either with our staff or the support of sub-consultants.
