UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH The City of La Quinta desires to contract a qualified plan check consultant for on -call Building Plan Review and Inspection Services. The consultant must provide an objective, independent, and impartial review of residential and/or commercial developments, infrastructure improvements and special projects. The plans shall be reviewed for conformance with City, State and Federal standards as well as all other applicable ordinances and codes with strict attention to details. Additionally, the consultant must provide building inspection services for residential, commercial and special projects during construction to enforce compliances with the approved, permitted plans. Moreover, La Quinta expects a cost-effective plan review approach that observes performance review turnaround schedules, complete and thorough reviews, and close communication to quickly address review comments/points of clarification. Key / Critical Issues The City of La Quinta prides itself in delivering proactive and responsive customer service, by fostering quick turnaround times, delivering seamless communication, and leveraging technology to save time and money. The City is currently in mid -implementation of the high -profile SilverRock Resort development and in the early stages of establishing The Village as a dining, art, and cultural destination center through innovative street improvements and development incentives for the remaining vacant lots. These initiatives will shape our approach to reviewing and inspecting projects from plan check through approval of plans and construction. Key issues include: Deliver High -Quality, Cost -Effective, On -Time Reviews This has included implementing best practice tools, such as electronic plan check, digital commenting, tracking logs/reports, and web -based development processing systems to efficiently deliver plan check services and save time and cost. Given our successful track record in both civil and building plan check, we maintain an excellent working relationship with the region's largest land developers and are consistently requested by them to review their plans in our role as a municipal plan check consultant. Finally, we provide the impartial role so critical to plan check and inspection, because we exclusively serve public agencies, and, therefore, have no conflict of interest when serving as a seamless extension of municipal staff. Consequently, HR Green agrees that we will not prepare building or civil engineering improvement plans, associated technical studies, and final or parcel maps for development projects located within the City of La Quinta during the term of our agreement. We understand the City has initiated the following maximum plan review turn -around schedule: 1st Plan Check: 2nd Plan Check 3rd Plan Check: 15 Working Days 10 Working Days 5 Working Days Given our proficiency using the City's TRAKiT system and Bluebeam Revu as well as a successful 15+ year track record of providing electronic plan check and paperless processing for 30+ agencies, we will beat your plan check schedule. In fact, for the 23,000-acre mixed -use Ranch project for the County of Orange, we exclusively use digital commenting/electronic plan check to maintain a 7/3 working day turnaround plan check schedule for a large volume of plans. HRGreen 0City of La Quinta I On -Call Building Plan Review and Inspection Services 18 PACIFIC Physical Location / Characteristics The City maintains a diverse and distinctive position in the Valley: Santa Rosa Mountains bordering on the west and south, natural desert environment, geographic features, sandy dunes, and bluffs serve as a backdrop for some of the most beautiful private and commercial developments in the Coachella Valley. Moreover, since 2007, the City has implemented the Coachella Valley Multi -Species Habitat Conservation Plan (CVMSHCP). Certain areas within La Quinta have been identified in the Plan as Conservation Areas (e.g., mostly hillsides and open desert). Development in Conservation Areas is subject to additional review, and limits on the amount and location of development apply. All of the above components directly impact how development related improvements are planned, approved and constructed in order to maintain the quality of life in the city and the adjacent region. SilverRock Resort The City's 525 acre site is poised for development, including two hotels, a convention center, a new permanent clubhouse and commercial and residential components to join the Arnold Palmer designed golf course on this unique site. Accurate and timely review of all building, roadway, grading and utility plans will be critical to the success of the project. Additionally, coordination through construction by the City's inspection staff will be imperative to a smooth opening of the remaining phases. Multi-Agency/Jurisdictional Coordination and/or Approval Coordination and/or approval will be required among City departments and diverse agencies, including, but not limited to the County of Riverside, Riverside Flood Control and Water Conservation District, Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD), the Bureau of Land Management, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the State and Regional Water Quality Control Boards, the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD), Caltrans, and related permitting agencies encountered during the CEQA and NEPA review process included in the entitlement conditions for project mitigation, implementation, and monitoring. Dust control (PM10)/air quality and regional/site-specific water quality management requirements must also be reviewed along with specific -specific Conditions of Approval to conform to SQAQMD, Santa Ana RWQCB, and applicable City requirements. Our unparalleled plan check experience bridges both smaller QSi[vERROCK 1l ' ian�rN W�� C.iWI uw additions and custom homes to complex, mixed use developments of 5,000+ units.

HR® City of La Quinta I On -Call Building Plan Review and Inspection Services 23 ACIFIC The following process represents our typical plan review workflow. Please note that this process can be modified to meet the City's specific needs. - Preliminary Discussions Prior to beginning our initial plan review project, our Plan Review Manager proposes to conduct a meeting or conference call with the City to discuss local code policies, documentation procedures, plan processing protocols, plan review checklist items, and scheduling. © — Initial Review Once we receive a complete set of plan documents, we will perform our plan review in the agreed -upon timeframe, reviewing for compliance to all applicable code standards. All corrections are identified based on compliance with specified codes and regulations and worded so the designer will know what needs attention and how to respond to the issue stated. Generally, corrections are identified in two ways: 1. Notes can be made on plans as appropriate and authorized to assist in locating the issue on the plans; 2. A correction sheet is generated detailing what items need to be addressed before plan approval.

To help assure that submittals are properly coordinated and tracked, we have established an internal plan review coordination process in which each plan received for review is properly handled, processed and returned on time. Upon completion of our review, any comments generated are consolidated into a correction letter which is forwarded to the applicant; at the same time, an electronic copy is sent to the City for its reference. At your discretion, upon completion of the initial plan review, a debrief between our staff and the City can be coordinated to verify our firm is aligning with the City's expectations. ® - Rechecks Upon receipt of the resubmittal package from the applicant, we will notify the City (via email) that we have received the package. Once we have verified that the resubmittal package is complete, we perform a recheck in the agreed -upon timeframe. This process is repeated until the project plan documents are ready to be recommended for approval. When all review comments are satisfied, we will forward two sets of all relevant correspondence bearing our company's "Approval" stamp (including plans, calculations, and specifications), along with a transmittal letter indicating our recommendation for project approval, and the project file to the City for processing.

Comments from each review cycle are summarized electronically by our staff. Design responses are added and included with the next submittal to verify that all comments have been addressed. This approach has been effective in resolving comments at early stages, avoiding repeat comments by reviewers, and coordinating responses among disciplines. We also update a detailed tracking log whereby the agency can identify the status of any project through the review lifecycle process in real time. HR Green will coordinate plan reviews with the City's software system by leveraging our multi -faceted staff.
