CAO RECOMMENDATION A. Approve the workscope for preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Dalidio/San Luis Marketplace Annexation/Prezone/Development Plan and authorize staff to proceed with sending out Request for Proposal (RFP) documents to qualified consulting firms. B. Authorize the CAO to award the contract to a qualified consulting firm, contingent upon the developer depositing with the City the amount of the contract plus 30%. Background The Community Development Department has received an application for annexation, prezoning, and development of approximately 131 acres situated between Madonna Road and Highway 101 adjacent to the Central Coast Mall. The project includes: a. Prezone 40 acres of land adjacent to the Central Coast Mall to Retail Commercial and develop the vacant property with new retail commercial uses and restaurants. This new retail center, referred to as San Luis Marketplace, will contain approximately 534,000 square feet of leasable space including a mixture of"big box" and smaller retail uses and restaurants. The project will also include the construction of a freeway interchange at Prado Road and extension of Prado Road to Madonna Road. In addition, a series of interior streets connecting this property and the adjoining Central Coast Mall are proposed. The applicants are proposing approximately 2300 parking spaces in a series of landscaped parking fields mixed throughout the center. b. Prezone 10 acres of property north of the San Luis Marketplace and adjacent to Madonna Road for Medium-High Density Residential (R-3-PD). The applicants intend to develop this parcel with up to 180 residential units, possibly for senior citizen housing. C. Prezone the remaining 70 acres Conservation/Open Space which will be made up of a 5 acre extension to Laguna Lake Park, 55 acres for permanent open space protection, and 10 acres in"reserve"open space for future consideration of additional urban uses. �Ijz -� Council Agenda Report- Dalidio/San Luis Marketplace EIR Request for Proposals Page 2 Planning staff has determined that an EIR will be required to evaluate the potential impacts of the project. The Community Development Department periodically hires consultants to supplement staff in carrying out work that arises as part of the development review process, especially the preparation of EIRs. The City's Purchasing Guidelines state that the RFP documents for consultant services over $15,000 should generally be approved by the Council before they are issued. Based on previous experience, staff estimates that this EIR contract will be substantially more than $15,000, but does not know now what the specific cost will be. Staff has developed a workscope for the EIR which is included in the Request for Proposals and provides a detailed discussion of potential project issues and work tasks that need to be performed to fully evaluate these issues. The RFP also includes a project description, project background and requirements for proposal contents. The environmental initial study is available for review but is not attached to this report. Significant Impacts The Council's decision on this item will not incur any City expense. Once a qualified consultant is selected and a contract negotiated, the cost of the EIR production, including a fee for management of the process by City staff, will be home by the developer with the administration of the consultant contract overseen by the Community Development Department, in conjunction with the Finance Department. This is the approved procedure for City-required EIRs. Consequences of Not Taking the Recommended Action If a consultant is not retained to prepare the EIR, it would be the responsibility of the City to do so. Given the extensive and complex workscope that has been developed for the EIR, staff would have difficulty fitting this project into its existing workload. In addition, staff would need to hire consultants to adequately evaluate certain technical issues. Conclusion If the Council approves the EIR workscope and authorizes staff to proceed with sending out RFPs to qualified consultants, then staff plans to follow the following schedule: Issue RFP September 18, 1998 Receive proposals October 16, 1998 Complete proposal evaluation October 23, 1998 Conduct finalist interviews October 29, 1998 Finalize staff recommendation November 6, 1998 Applicant deposits EIR cost November 13, 1998 Award contract November 13, 1998 2 Council Agenda Report-Dalidio/San Luis Marketplace EIR Request for Proposals Page 3 Execute contract/Start work November 13, 1998 Complete admin. draft February 12, 1999 CONCURRENCES Development review meetings were held prior to and after formal submittal of application materials. Other departments and agencies attended these meetings and provided oral and written comments, which were then used in the initial study analysis. FISCAL IMPACT The project should have no impact on the City's finances, because the applicant will pay the full cost of the EIR plus 30% for administrative and review services by staff. ALTERNATIVES 1. Approve the workscope, but direct staff to prepare the EIR. If staff is responsible for EIR production, the timeframe for completion of the document would be more lengthy than that estimated above for a consultant, and other staff work program items would be further postponed. 2. Continue consideration of the workscope and RFP with direction to staff on necessary changes.

Scope of Work An Initial Study of Environmental Impact was completed for this project, which concluded that there may be significant environmental impacts associated with development and that an environmental impact report (EIR) is required. The applicant is not disputing the need for preparation of an EIR. The following workscope more specifically identifies issues and tasks that need to be performed to evaluate potential impacts of the project. EIR Workscope Items 1. Land Use& Planning • Provide a summary of the relevant general plan policies that relate to development as identified in the initial study prepared for the project. Discuss briefly how proposed land uses were established for this site with the update of the City's Land Use Element. • The EIR should include a discussion of the site issues that need to be mitigated and the improvements that need to be made prior to urbanization of the 10-acre portion of the property designated as Interim Conservation Open Space on the LUE map. 3. Geologic Problems Provide an overview on the soils and geologic conditions of the site. Discussion should focus on the site's potential for liquefaction and subsidence, and identify necessary earthwork, special grading, construction techniques and foundation design criteria for the site development proposed. 4. Water • Describe impacts of the project in terms of absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and amount of surface runoff. • Evaluate the flood hazard for the site and the potential adverse impact of flooding on the project. Evaluate the potential impacts of the project on flooding of the site and to adjacent or downstream properties. • Review and evaluate the proposed recommendations included in the submitted drainage and flood analysis for the project,and suggest any additional mitigation measures to address project impacts. 5. Air Quality • In conjunction with trip generation figures provided from the required traffic study, interpolate expected emissions generated by the project. • Quantify expected emissions from construction-related activities. • Discuss modifications that could be made to the proposed project to result in a more compact development pattern and improve transit and pedestrian orientation. 6. Transportation/Circulation Traffic Study Workscoae Items A traffic study will need to be prepared and incorporated into the environmental document for the project. All calculations and analysis shall be conducted using the most recent Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) and Highway Design manual methodologies. Proposed Trip Generation characteristics and distribution are to be submitted to the City for review and comment/approval prior to proceeding with the traffic analysis. All mitigation measures proposed to address significant impacts must be feasible. The consultant shall utilize the San Luis Obispo Citywide Traffic Model (SLOCTM) to develop the background traffic projections for future year analyzes. The study facilities are to be analyzed as existing and existing with traffic generated by the proposed project. The consultant shall supply exhibits illustrating proposed mitigations. Along arterial corridors traffic signal progression analysis may be necessary for Level of Service determinations and mitigations. Regarding the SLOCTM, the consultant shall provide the City with a copy of disk and documentation of the project with the project land uses and loaded network. If another software other than MINUTP is utilized by the consultant, a licensed copy of the program shall be provided to the City along with the project disks. This traffic study will need to evaluate the following: A. Streets/Traffic 1. Provide a description of existing traffic conditions, including LOS on the current road system, in the vicinity of the project. Evaluate the project's impact on LOS at: the El Mercado, Dalidio, Oceanaire, Higuera and Los Osos Valley Road intersections with Madonna Road; the Highway 101 ramps with Madonna Road, Los Osos Valley Road and Prado Road; and the Prado and Los Osos Valley Road intersections with South Higuera Street. What speck mitigation measures will maintain LOS D or better? 2. In accordance with Circulation Element Policy 8.15,the alignment and design of the road connecting Prado Road with Los Osos Valley Road needs to be established as part of further development of the Dalidio-Madonna-McBride Area. Along with the alignment, the plan line will need to be identified addressing quantity of through lanes, turn lanes and bike lanes. This should be accomplished by the consultant with the use of the San Luis Obispo Citywide Traffic Model. A recommendation shall be made regarding the proposed intersection location of the north-south roadway with Prado/Dalidio Road taking into consideration Madonna Road intersection location, Central Coast Mall access drive (and its proposed offset) and the US Post Office access driveways, traffic signal timing, and queing of traffic. Analyze and discuss the validity of the north-south roadway and to what extent it mitigates the impacts to the parallel travelways including Highway 101 and Madonna Road Corridor. 3. Development of the proposed project may occur incrementally. Complete an Existing Condition Analysis and Sensitivity Analysis for the project to determine if project traffic exceeds intersection thresholds (LOS D) and freeway ramp thresholds, and at what development level. Identify a phasing of road improvements to mitigate the phased development. Example: 1. What level of development may occur if traffic solely accesses the site from Madonna/Dalidio intersection? 2. What level of development may occur if Prado Road interchange is constructed? and 3. Is the north-south road planned from Prado/Dalidio to LOVR required to mitigate project impacts, and if so, at what level of development? 4. Analyze and make recommendations on the location and quantity of access points to Prado Road, from Highway 101 to Madonna Road. Evaluate the proposed street intersections created by the project in relation to on-site parking lot design to determine whether trucks are able to access and maneuver through the site. Evaluate the proposed street intersections and their relationship to existing and proposed street intersections from the project to the north for Level of Service, turning movements, lane configuration, etc. Determine whether planned circulation changes will hamper the Post Office's operations and recommend appropriate mitigation. 5. Evaluate the ability of pedestrians to cross Dalidio Drive/Prado Road to access the Central Coast Mall project to the northeast. Analyze the site plan, and look at alternatives, to provide safe pedestrian access on the project site and provide recommendations. 6. Dalidio Road is existing at Madonna Road intersection. Identify the lane configuration and right-of-way width required to maintain a minimum level of service of D at buildout of the City's General Plan with the Prado Road extension. Address impacts and mitigations if insufficient right-of-way exists. 7. In lieu of standard roadway widths and signalized intersections (at least one of which one is anticipated at the middle of the project on Prado/Dalidio Rd), analyze the placement of traffic circles and/or roundabouts and a concurrent reduction in the number of travel lanes necessary to carry anticipated traffic. B. Transit Service 1. Evaluate increase in patronage to existing Central Coast Mall transit stop with the additional services available with the project. 2. How might the project's site plan and transportation improvements be modified to encourage greater transit use(eg. Transit oriented development concepts)? 3. What facilities need to be provided to satisfy transit demand? 4. How will planned increase in traffic on existing Dalidio Drive and proposed street intersections affect current transit service to the Central Coast Mall? Provide recommendation(s)of how on-time performance might be maintained. C. Assumptions In preparing the analysis of this retail shopping center,the Consultant should assume: 1. The need for a Prado Road interchange, and the extension of Prado Road west of Route 101, has been established as part of previous studies. Three designs of the interchange, and other related State highway improvements, were preliminarily established with the approval by Caltrans of the Project Study Report (PSR). The next step in terms of the interchange design will be the preparation of the Project Report and other environmental evaluation to be considered for approval by Caltrans. 2. The new segment of Prado Road west of Route 101 is planned as a four-lane arterial street with center turn lane, landscape median, and Class II bike lanes, sidewalks and landscaped parkways on both sides(total ROW=31.5 M). 3. Consultant studies show the potential need for a north-south road connecting Prado Road west of Route 101 with Los Osos Valley. 4. Previously-prepared traffic studies may be used as reference materials. However,the Consultant must validate any assumptions and conclusions of these reports before they can be used in this evaluation. D. Available Information In developing its General Plan, the City has developed a transportation model (MIWTP) to -4- dl;_/� forecast traffic levels on City arterial and collector streets. Forecasts have been made for "build out" of the City's General Plan — development to the year 2025. The City will require the Consultant to use the San Luis Obispo City-wide Traffic Model; however, the City staff will not provide technical support in the operation of the model. Eventually, the City would like a copy of the consultant's MINUTP disk including the traffic generation assumptions and land use data. The City will make available to the consultant the following reports and information: the Prado Road Project Study Report; the Traffic Impact Analysis for the Central Coast Mall Expansion (1993); the MINUTP City Wide Traffic Model disk and documentation (updated version including Airport Land Use proposal would need to be obtained from Fehr & Peers), and the DeVaul Ranch Traffic Impact Study. Airport Land Use Plan Workscope Items • Discuss changes contemplated by the County to amend the Airport Land Use Plan map to show the site included in Area 3, rather than 5. Examine needed mitigation measures or project changes that would be necessary for the project to be consistent with plans if that map change were implemented. • Review the aircraft accident history for the site. Show on a map the location of the most recent Lear jet accident. Discuss mitigation measures that would respond to safety issues. • Produce a map which shows the project in relation to the extended centerline of the primary runway. Provide a discussion of the potential impacts of the project on the continued operation of the airport. 9. Hazards • Identify potential conflicts with ongoing farming and grazing operations in the vicinity. • Provide recommendations on how an adequate agricultural buffer could be created consistent with Open Space Element(Chapter II. Section I.2). 10. Noise • Analyze the potential impacts of the project and identify appropriate noise attenuation measures consistent with the 1996 Noise Element and Noise Guidelines. • Discuss general strategies for buffering land uses and attenuating noise to the planned residential site. 12. Utilities Water Supply& Distribution Workscope Items • Discuss projected water demand for new retail development and its potential impacts on citywide water supplies. • What is the anticipated yield from on-site wells? What types of improvements will be necessary to improve the quality of the groundwater to meet State and local standards? • What is the best approach to tie water rights to project entitlements (development agreement, PD zoning)? -5- 03 r,3 • Are additional offsets required to mitigate the impacts of the new development on the City's water supply? Wastewater Service& Facilities Workscoae Items • What are the projected flows for the project? • How will projected flows impact the capacity of the wastewater treatment plant? • Evaluate the status of the Laguna sewer lift station and its schedule for replacement as it relates to the development of the project. 13. Aesthetics The consultant shall evaluate the submitted visual analysis, identify potential impacts on views of important scenic resources,and suggest appropriate mitigation measures. 14. Cultural Resources A qualified local historian or historical archaeologist shall examine and evaluate the structures now occupied by Zapata Farms, and also conduct further research to determine the nature and potential significance of the former track and associated 19th century structures. A complete and professional report shall be prepared which fully documents the results of this research. The report shall address the possibility of buried deposits and other features, and the potential value of such resources. If the historical research yields positive results,then a program of subsurface testing should be initiated prior to any development in the immediate vicinity of these structures. 15. Alternatives Alternatives to the proposed project design need to be evaluated. Alternatives need to clearly indicate how they would address identified project impacts and should at minimum evaluate the following: • the"no"project alternative; • the intensification and/or redevelopment of the existing Madonna Center and Central Coast Plaza sites should be discussed in the alternatives section of the EIR (References: LUE Policy 3.7.10 & Policy OS 10.2.1 in the General Plan Digest.); • a commercial project of a more limited size and scope; and • other comparable sites where the project might be developed. -6- n Section B GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS PROPOSAL REQUIREMENTS 1.

Therefore, timely completion and circulation of the Draft EIR is essential to expeditious processing of the project consistent with CEQA and will be considered in evaluating consultant proposals. Proposals will be evaluated by a review committee using a two-phase selection process as follows: Written Proposal Review and Finalist Candidate Selection A group of finalist candidates (generally the top three to five proposers) will be selected for follow-up interviews and presentations based on the following criteria as indicated in their written proposals: a. Understanding of the work required by the City b. Quality and responsiveness of the proposal C. Demonstrated competence and professional qualifications necessary for satisfactory performance of the work required by the City d. Recent experience in successfully performing similar services e. Proposed approach in completing the work f. References g. Background and related experience of the specific individuals to be assigned to this project Presentations, Interviews, and Consultant Selection Finalist candidates will be required to make an oral presentation to the review committee and answer questions about their proposals. The purpose of this phase is two-fold: to clarify and resolve any outstanding questions or issues about the proposal; and to evaluate the proposer's ability to present information orally clearly and concisely. As part of this second phase of the selection process, finalist candidates will submit proposed compensation costs for the work, including a proposed payment schedule tied to the completion of key project milestones or tasks. Contract award will be based on a combination of factors that represent that best overall value for completing the work outlined in the workcope as determined by the City, including: the written proposal criteria noted above; results of background and reference checks; results from the interviews and presentations phase; and proposed compensation. After evaluating the proposals and discussing them further with the finalists or the tentatively selected Consultant, the City reserves the right to further negotiate the proposed workcope and/or method and amount of compensation. -13- g PROPOSAL REVIEW AND AWARD SCHEDULE TENTATIVE The following is an outline of the anticipated schedule for proposal review and contract award: Issue RFP September 18, 1998 Receive proposals October 16, 1998 Complete proposal evaluation October 23, 1998 Conduct finalist interviews October 29, 1998 Finalize staff recommendation November 6, 1998 Applicant deposits EIR cost November 13, 1998 Award contract November 13, 1998 Execute contract/Start work November 13, 1998 Complete admin. draft February 12, 1999 If you have any questions about this RFP, schedule, or attachments, please call Pam Ricci at (805) 781-7168.
