hours required to perform the stated Scope of Work. In the event the CONSULTANT
enters into a supplemental AGREEMENT for additional work, the supplemental
AGREEMENT may include provisions for the added costs and an appropriate additional
fee. The Fixed Fee will be prorated and paid monthly in proportion to the percentage of
work completed by the CONSULTANT and reported in the Monthly Progress Reports
accompanying the billings. Any portion of the Fixed Fee earned but not previously paid in
the progress payments will be covered in the final payment, subject to the provisions of
Section IX entitled "Termination of Agreement."
5. Management Reserve Fund: The AGENCY may desire to establish a Management Reserve
Fund to provide the Agreement Administrator with the flexibility to authorize additional
funds to the AGREEMENT for allowable unforeseen costs, or reimbursing the

reimbursement of Actual Costs plus the calculated overhead and fee on a monthly basis during the
progress of the work. Such billings shall be in a format approved by the AGENCY and
accompanied by the monthly progress reports required under Section III, "General Requirements"
of this AGREEMENT. The billings will be supported by an itemized listing for each item including
Direct Salary, Direct Non -Salary, and allowable Overhead Costs to which will be added the
prorated Fixed Fee. To provide a means of verifying the billed salary costs for CONSULTANT
employees, the AGENCY may conduct employee interviews. These interviews may consist of
recording the names, titles, salary rates, and present duties of those employees performing work on
the PROJECT at the time of the interview.
C. Final Payment: Final Payment of any balance due the CONSULTANT of the gross amount earned
will be made promptly upon its verification by the AGENCY after the completion of the work
under this AGREEMENT, contingent upon receipt of all PS&E, plans, maps, notes, reports,
electronic data and other related documents which are required to be furnished under this
AGREEMENT. Acceptance of such Final Payment by the CONSULTANT shall constitute a
release of all claims for payment, which the CONSULTANT may have against the AGENCY
unless such claims are specifically reserved in writing and transmitted to the AGENCY by the
CONSULTANT prior to its acceptance. Said Final Payment shall not, however, be a bar to any
claims that the AGENCY may have against the CONSULTANT or to any remedies the AGENCY
may pursue with respect to such claims.
The payment of any billing will not constitute agreement as to the appropriateness of any item and
at the time of final audit, all required adjustments will be made and reflected in a final payment. In
the event that such final audit reveals an overpayment to the CONSULTANT, the CONSULTANT
will refund such overpayment to the AGENCY within thirty (30) days of notice of the
overpayment. Such refund shall not constitute a waiver by the CONSULTANT for any claims
relating to the validity of a finding by the AGENCY of overpayment. The CONSULTANT has
twenty (20) days after receipt of the final POST AUDIT to begin the appeal process to the
AGENCY for audit findings.
D. Inspection of Cost Records: The CONSULTANT and their sub -consultants shall keep available for

DOT Form 140-089 EF Exhibit I
Revised 6/05
Exhibit J
Alleged Consultant Design Error Procedures
The purpose of this exhibit is to establish a procedure to determine if a consultant's alleged design error is of a
nature that exceeds the accepted standard of care. In addition, it will establish a uniform method for the resolution
and/or cost recovery procedures in those instances where the agency believes it has suffered some material damage
due to the alleged error by the consultant.
Step 1 — Potential Consultant Design Error(s) is Identified by Agency's Project Manager
At the first indication of potential consultant design error(s), the first step in the process is for the
Agency's project manager to notify the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer regarding the
potential design error(s). For federally funded projects, the Region Highways and Local Programs
Engineer should be informed and involved in these procedures. (Note: The Director of Public Works or
Agency Engineer may appoint an agency staff person other than the project manager, who has not been
as directly involved in the project, to be responsible for the remaining steps in these procedures.)
Step 2 - Project Manager Documents the Alleged Consultant Design Error(s)
After discussion of the alleged design error(s) and the magnitude of the alleged error(s), and with the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer's concurrence, the project manager obtains more detailed
documentation than is normally required on the project. Examples include: all decisions and
descriptions of work; photographs, records of labor, materials and equipment.
Step 3 — Contact the Consultant Regarding the Alleged Design Error(s)
If it is determined that there is a need to proceed further, the next step in the process is for the project
manager to contact the consultant regarding the alleged design error(s) and the magnitude of the alleged
error(s). The project manager and other appropriate agency staff should represent the agency and the
consultant should be represented by their project manger and any personnel (including sub -consultants)
deemed appropriate for the alleged design error(s) issue.
Step 4 — Attempt to Resolve Alleged Design Error with Consultant
After the meeting(s) with the consultant have been completed regarding the consultant's alleged design
error(s), there are three possible scenarios:
• It is determined via mutual agreement that there is not a consultant design error(s). If
this is the case, then the process will not proceed beyond this point.
•
DOT Form 140-089 EF Exhibit J
Revised 6/05
It is determined via mutual agreement that a consultant design error(s) occurred. If this
is the case, then the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, or their
representatives, negotiate a settlement with the consultant. The settlement would be
paid to the agency or the amount would be reduced from the consultant's agreement
with the agency for the services on the project in which
the design error took place. The agency is to provide H&LP, through the Region
•
Local Programs Engineer, a summary of the settlement for review and to make
adjustments, if any, as to how the settlement affects federal reimbursements. No
further action is required.
There is not a mutual agreement regarding the alleged consultant design error(s). The
consultant may request that the alleged design error(s) issue be forwarded to
the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer for review. If the Director of
Public Works or Agency Engineer, after review with their legal counsel, is not able
to reach mutual agreement with the consultant, proceed to Step 5.
Step 5 — Forward Documents to Highways and Local Programs
For federally funded projects all available information, including costs, should be forwarded
through the Region Highways and Local Programs Engineer to H&LP for their review and
consultation with the FHWA. H&LP will meet with representatives of the agency and the
consultant to review the alleged design error(s), and attempt to find a resolution to the issue. If
necessary, H&LP will request assistance from the Attorney General's Office for legal
interpretation. H&LP will also identify how the alleged error(s) affects eligibility of project costs
for federal reimbursement.
• if mutual agreement is reached, the agency and consultant adjust the scope of work
and costs to reflect the agreed upon resolution. H&LP, in consultation with FHWA,
will identify the amount of federal participation in the agreed upon
resolution of the issue.
• If mutual agreement is not reached, the agency and consultant may seek settlement
by arbitration or by litigation.
Exhibit K
Consultant Claim Procedures
The purpose of this exhibit is to describe a procedure regarding claim(s) on a consultant agreement. The following
procedures should only be utilized on consultant claims greater than $1,000. If the consultant's claim(s) are a total
of $1,000 or less, it would not be cost effective to proceed through the outlined 'steps. It is suggested that the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer negotiate a fair and reasonable price for the consultant's claim(s)
that total $1,000 or less.
This exhibit will outline the procedures to be followed by the consultant and the agency to consider a potential
claim by the consultant.
Step 1 — Consultant Files a Claim with the Agency Project Manager
If the consultant determines that they were requested to perform additional services that were outside of
the agreement's scope of work, they may be entitled to a claim. The first step that must be completed is
the request for consideration of the claim to the Agency's project manager.
The consultant's claim must outline the following:
• Summation of hours by classification for each firm that is included in the claim;
• Any correspondence that directed the consultant to perform the additional work;
• Timeframe of the additional work that was outside of the project scope;
• Summary of direct labor dollars, overhead costs, profit and reimbursable costs associated with
the additional work; and
• Explanation as to why the consultant believes the additional work was outside of the
agreement scope of work.
Step 2 — Review by Agency Personnel Regarding the Consultant's Claim for Additional Compensation
After the consultant has completed step 1, the next step in the process is to forward the request to the
Agency's project manager. The project manager will review the consultant's claim and will met with
the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer to determine if the Agency agrees with the claim. If
the FHWA is participating in the project's funding, forward a copy of the consultant's claim and the
Agency's recommendation for federal participation in the claim to the WSDOT Highways and Local
Programs through the Region Local Programs Engineer. If the claim is not eligible for federal
participation, payment will need to be from agency funds.
If the Agency project manager, Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, WSDOT Highways and
Local Programs (if applicable), and FHWA (if applicable) agree with the consultant's claim, send a
request memo, including backup documentation to the consultant to either supplement the agreement,
or create a new agreement for the claim. After the request has been approved, the Agency shall write
the supplement and/or new agreement and pay the consultant the amount of the claim. Inform the
consultant that the final payment for the agreement is subject to audit. No further action in needed
regarding the claim procedures.
DOT Form 140-089 EF Exhibit K
Revised 6/05
If the Agency does not agree with the consultant's claim, proceed to step 3 of the procedures.
Step 3 — Preparation of Support Documentation Regarding Consultant's Claim(s)
If the Agency does not agree with the consultant's claim, the project manager shall prepare a
summary for the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer that included the following:
• Copy of information supplied by the consultant regarding the claim;
• Agency's summation of hours by classification for each firm that should be included in the
claim;
• Any correspondence that directed the consultant to perform the additional work;
• Agency's summary of direct labor dollars, overhead costs, profit and reimbursable costs
associated with the additional work;
• Explanation regarding those areas in which the Agency does/does not agree with the
consultant's claim(s);
• Explanation to describe what has been instituted to preclude future consultant claim(s); and
• Recommendations to resolve the claim.
Step 4 — Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer Reviews Consultant Claim and Agency
Documentation
The Director of Pubic Works or Agency Engineer shall review and administratively approve or
disapprove the claim, or portions thereof, which may include getting Agency Council or
Commission approval (as appropriate to agency dispute resolution procedures). If the project
involves federal participation, obtain concurrence from WSDOT Highways and Local Programs
and FHWA regarding final settlement of the claim. If the claim is not eligible for federal
participation, payment will need to be from agency funds.
Step 5 — Informing Consultant of Decision Regarding the Claim
The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer shall notify (in writing) the consultant of their
final decision regarding the consultant's claim(s). Include the final dollar amount of the accepted
claim(s) and rationale utilized for the decision.
Step 6 — Preparation of Supplement or New Agreement for the Consultant's Claim(s)
The agency shall write the supplement and/or new agreement and pay the consultant the amount of
the claim. Inform the consultant that the final payment for the agreement is subject to audit.

ITEM TITLE:
BUSINESS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
YAKIMA, WASHINGTON
AGENDA STATEMENT
Item No. 1/
For Meeting of February 3, 2009
A Resolution authorizing and directing the City Manager to
execute a consultant agreement for professional services
with Huibregtse, Louman Associates, Inc., (HLA), for the
development of the design for the Nob Hill Boulevard
Improvements project, along with the authority to execute
other such documents that may be deemed necessary and
prudent for the completion of this project
SUBMITTED BY: William Cook, Director of Community & Economic
Development
CONTACT PERSON/TELEPHONE: Doug Mayo, P.E., City Engineer 576-6678
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
In 2001, the City entered into a development agreement with Congdon Orchards. The
Development Agreement provided planning principles, development standards and
procedures to help guide the orderly development of the then "newly annexed" Congdon
property. Part of this agreement requires the City to widen Nob Hill Boulevard, adjacent
to the Congdon property, to five lanes when funding becomes available.
The City recently submitted its list of "stimulus package" projects to the governor. One
of the projects on this list is the Nob Hill Boulevard Improvements project from 49th
Avenue to 72nd Avenue. In order to be eligible for any "stimulus package" funds, the
project would need to be ready to go to bid by July 31, 2009. To do this, the City needs

to fast track the design and the only feasible way of doing this is by hiring a consulting
firm. We interviewed several firms and HLA scored the highest, and assured us that
they have the personnel and resources available to complete this project by the required
deadline.
Also, the City recently submitted a Transportation Improvement Board (TIB) application
for this project. Although not selected, it only missed the funding line by three points. If
not selected as a "stimulus package" project, we will again submit an application for this
project during the next TIB call for projects (August 2009). Projects that have been
designed and are ready to go to bid receive four bonus points. To be eligible to use the
Wal-Mart improvements to the road as a match for a grant, the improvements need to be
constructed within the next two years. For this reason, it is imperative that the City take
as many steps as possible to ensure success in obtaining a grant. The estimated total
cost for construction of this project, including a sanitary sewer pipe is about $3,000,000.
Under the proposed agreement, HLA will complete the environmental documentation,
right of way plan, right of way acquisition and construction drawings for the
aforementioned roadway section. While negotiations of the final scope of work are not
yet complete, the contract amount for the work to be done by HLA will not exceed
$350,000.
Last year, the City obtained an Limited Tax General Obligation Bond, of which
$2,180,000 was to be used for certain capital improvement projects, including the 3rd
Avenue Grind and Overlay project and three Pedestrian Crossing Signals. Due to the
favorable bidding climate of last year, there is enough money left in the bond to pay for
the design of this Nob Hill Improvements project.
