B) Supplement No. 1 of the Professional Services Agreement with Cascade Project Management. SUBMITTED BY: Joan Davenport, Acting Director of Community & Economic Development CONTACT PERSON/TELEPHONE: Doug Mayo, City Engineer — 576 -6678 SUMMARY EXPLANATION: A) The City has a professional services agreement with Berger ABAM under which they provide the City with project management, inspection services and engineering support during construction of the Lincoln Avenue Grade Separation Project. Due to the difficulties that have been encountered in constructing the bottom seal for the Lincoln Avenue Underpass, the time and cost to construct this project have increased. This consultant agreement is scheduled to expire in July, and, due to the increased engineering required to develop other construction options for the bottom seal, the funds will run out by the end of May. At this time, staff requests authorization to execute Supplement No. 8 of this agreement, which would compensate Berger ABAM for continuing to provide project management, construction inspection services and engineering support throughout construction of the Lincoln Avenue Underpass. This supplement would extend the agreement to July 31, 2012, and would carry an additional cost not to exceed of $601,482, bringing the total amount of the Berger ABAM Consultant Agreement Number 2 to $4,780,726. With the difficulties that have been encountered so far on this project, it is imperative that we continue to have consistency to ensure federal reimbursement. (Continued on Page Two) Resolution.

Deliverables • One full - size Mylar plan set of final record drawings TASK 6 - PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT PROGRAM The following is a list of public involvement services that are to be provided by the Consultant on this project. The outline /list of recommended activities and corresponding deliverables provides the basis for establishing a public involvement budget. It is anticipated that public involvement services may be revised in consultation with the City during the course of the project in response to task and activity additions or unforeseen necessities, and that reasonable changes to the budget for public involvement services may be required. A key assumption of the Public Involvement Plan (PIP) and associated fee estimate surrounds the formation of a Project Advisory Group (PAG). By virtue of this group's vested interest in the successful outcome of this project, they will be charged with carrying out specific outreach and communications activities, which are discussed below. The proposed public involvement services are intended to address the following key issues. 1. Anticipated public dissatisfaction with work zone congestion, delays, and safety issues associated with a road closure anticipated to last about one year. Detours will create additional travel time for emergency vehicles, school, and public transit buses, and may inconvenience residents, both those traveling within the area and those whose streets become part of construction detours. City of Yakima BERGER /ABAM, FAPWT -04 -016 Lincoln Avenue Grade Separation Project March 2009 Yakima, Washington Exhibit B Page 4 of 14 • 2. Business owners are concerned about loss of business due to yearlong construction, most of them adjacent to the closure and the detour. Businesses in the limited access area will need safe access alternatives. 3. Eastbound traffic on MLK Blvd. will be affected as it is reduced from three lanes to two and has opposing traffic where it normally doesn't. Stakeholder Outreach /Public Involvement Plan Development The blueprint for these activities is the PIP. The PIP will identify the project goals, public involvement schedule, stakeholder groups, communication tools and what they will communicate, and address the concerns of the community while adequately evaluating and • mitigating potential levels of controversy. The PIP will be developed with input obtained from stakeholder interviews. Stakeholder interviews or "knowledge mapping" involve one -on -one discussions with select individuals representing communities of interest and are designed to identify knowledge needs, gain a deeper understanding of the issues and concerns, and uncover potential risks to project success. BERGER /ABAM recommends the following to gather stakeholder intelligence and prepare the PIP. • 1. Prepare for and participate in a 60- minute teleconference with the .City to develop a list of potential stakeholders or stakeholder groups for interviews, including identification of potential proponents (champions) and opponents of the project. This first meeting will also be used to establish /confirm communication protocols, both internal and • external, to ensure consistent messaging and point(s) of contact. 2. Conduct background research via review of available information and City- provided historical documentation, reports, surveys, and the City's existing downtown merchant and property owner, stakeholder database(s), along with other relevant materials to inform development of stakeholder questions and PIP. 3. Develop questions and process schedule (two review cycles), and conduct by phone up to six, 30- minute stakeholder interviews. 4. Prepare an aggregate stakeholder interview summary report. 5. Prepare for and participate in one, 60- minute teleconference with the City to review key findings and outline messaging and next steps. 6. - Draft and provide one electronic copy of the preliminary PIP for review. 7. Prepare for and participate in teleconference (review cycle) to review the draft PIP. 8. Revise the preliminary plan for final approval.

City of Yakima BERGER /ABAM, FAPWT -04 -016 Lincoln Avenue Grade Separation Project March 2009 Yakima, Washington Exhibit B Page 6 of 14 • Project Advisory Group The creation of a PAG of impacted stakeholders to provide oversight and advice on, as well as carry out some important project outreach and communications activities, is an integral component of the public involvement strategy. The PAG, selected based on their constituent networks and stakeholder representation, would provide advice through the duration of the project, preconstruction through completion, in addition to providing a key component of the outreach effort itself. The main focus of this group will be to help develop strategies (business retention, marketing) for keeping local businesses viable during construction, and provide ongoing liaison or information dissemination to constituencies and organizational affiliations about project status. BERGER /ABAM recommends the following for development of a PAG. 1. BERGER /ABAM will prepare for and conference call with the City to identify potential membership and a recruitment approach for the PAG (target 10 to 15 members). Constituency pools for consideration include — City technical /project management staff — Representatives or business owners in the immediately affected area — Representatives of the greater area business association — Larger property owners • • — Local business district property management representatives — Emergency services (fire and police) 4. — School district • — Neighborhood association representation 2.

Business Coordination Prior to construction, if possible, but certainly after construction commences, BERGER /ABAM recommends that businesses and business groups develop contingency plans and marketing strategies to prepare for the closure and, thereby, minimize the amount of potential economic loss. The PAG will be helpful in this effort. Once construction begins, ongoing marketing and public relations efforts will be necessary to further mitigate impacts to those most directly 0 affected due to access issues, utility relocation, and the like. BERGER /ABAM recommends the following strategies, but additional ideas could emerge from meetings with businesses and the PAG, and these possibilities will be assessed for efficacy and cost - effectiveness. Budget assumes a collaborative effort (one -third each) between BERGER /ABAM, the City, and PAG. 1. Assistance with initial (prior to project kick -off) door -to -door business contacts to key impacted entities with general information, including schedule and contact information, ways to stay informed, and perhaps tips to prepare for construction impacts, as well as gathering specific or preferable business contact information. 2. Create an e -mail blast list for businesses and interested others, and prepare informational updates up to twice a month, or as needed before and during construction. In addition to construction updates, business tips and information about upcoming meetings, etc., can be included via e -mail. 3.
