PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
It is understood that the City of La Quinta (City) is seeking professional engineering services forth edesign of Washington Street Sidewalk
Improvements and Avenue 50 Sidewalk Improvements along Washington Street from Calle Tampico to Bridge North of Avenida Ultimo
and Avenue 50 from Avenida Montero to Washington Street. The project is intended to enhance pedestrian infrastructure.
The primary objectives identified include designing a sidewalk that accommodates pedestrians and integrating existing improvements
such as sidewalks, curb ramps, and retaining walls. Coordination with utility companies, property stakeholders, and the homeowners'
association will be essential for the successful development of the sidewalk.
The improvements will be constructed on the east side along Washington Street, from Calle Tampico to the bridge north of Avenida
Ultimo. The second section of the improvement will be on the north side of Avenue 50, from Avenida Montero to Washington
Street. Both 5-foot sidewalks will be built within the existing curb and gutter and retaining wall/garden wall, with a width that varies
approximately from 10 to 12 feet. Additionally, reconstruction of the existing retaining wall and garden wall will take place at specific
locations where the current improvements are deteriorating, and there is potential for reconstruction of the access ramp.
The conceptual design will be provided and discussed with the City for approval prior to commencing the detailed design. The
anticipated material for the sidewalk will be 4-inch-thick concrete, as indicated by City Standard 245. The concrete improvements will
also include access ramps that conform to current ADA standards.
ERSC understands that the project scope involves preparing plans, specifications, and cost estimates for sidewalk and curb ramps, field
walks, monthly meetings, and coordination with utility companies. This pertains to approximately 0.4 miles of sidewalk improvements.
SCOPE OF WORK
TASK A - PROJECT MANAGEMENT
ERSC will work with the City to schedule a project kick-off meeting. The intent of this meeting is to introduce both sides of the Team
and understand the varying roles of team members. This meeting will allow our team to review any changes in Project scope, ask and
answer questions that either side may have on the Project, and understand any special requirements the City may request as a part
of the Project. This task also includes attendance at monthly progress/milestone meetings, whether held in the field, office, or via
teleconference, as directed by the City and throughout the project design. In addition, this task will include the management of the
Project for ERSC design services, including but not limited to invoicing, filing, schedule updates, and various administrative tasks.
Deliverables:
• Meeting Agenda and Minutes
• Monthly Invoices with Progress Reports
• Schedule Updates
TASK B - DATA COLLECTION
As -Built Research, Investigation & Review
ERSC will research all available record data, including as -built documents, traffic data, and any other available data, by requesting this
information from City staff. Our team will coordinate with the City to obtain any record drawings for the project area, including, but not
limited to, Street Improvements, Signing and Striping, Street Lights, Storm Drainage, Water, Sewer, Traffic Signals, and other utilities.
Our team will utilize this data in the design of the project and will incorporate it into the project drawings for recording purposes.
Utility Coordination, Research & Notification
ERSC will perform utility research by obtaining all utility information within the project limits by notifying Dig Alert for a list of utility
providers. It is anticipated this will include, but not be limited to, Southern California Gas, Frontier, Southern California Edison, Imperial
Irrigation and Coachella Valley Water District, and Spectrum. Several of these utilities have visible appurtenances located within the
current street right-of-way. Our team will perform an initial notice via email (with return receipt) or certified mail with return receipt,
depending on the organization. Correspondence is recommended to be on City letterhead and sent from a City email account to avoid
fees from the various carriers. It will also be documented and filed in the project files. Record and Atlas maps received will be used to
show utility locations on the plans.
Based on our experience, ERSC recommends sending the initial notice from a City email account to ensure a quicker response from
utility companies and avoid unnecessary charges. Utility providers tend to prioritize emails originating from official City sources, which
can streamline the process and prevent delays or additional fees.
ERSC will provide furtherfield investigations to locate, identify, verify locations, and determine the status of existing utilities. In addition,
our team will obtain and review all applicable base map plans, atlas maps, substructure maps, specifications, reports, and record data
for all existing utilities, agencies, and companies involved in the project area. All utility research shall be incorporated into plan and
profile drawings with applicable details. Should any of the utilities conflict with proposed improvements, ERSC will discuss with City
staff to determine the preferred solution, depending upon whether the utility has prior rights.
Upon completion of the final design drawings and approval by the City, ERSC will provide all affected utility agencies final plans as well
as a construction schedule, if available.
Deliverables:
• Copies of all correspondence/notices with affected utility agencies
• Copies of maps and record data provided by the affected utility agencies.
Assumptions:
• Based on a review of the location and scope of work, our team anticipates there may be a necessity for potholing various utilities
appurtenances where improvements are proposed. Potholing will be further defined below and included as an Optional item in
the Fee Proposal.
Survey and Mapping
ERSC will research and review available survey records at the County of Riverside and City of La Quinta. During research, ERSC will
obtain online record information pertaining to the project area, including Tract Maps, Records of Survey, Parcel Maps, Corner Records,
and Right -of -Way maps. The information gathered during research will be used to develop field calculations and to prepare the base
maps for existing right-of-way and boundaries. It is anticipated that the City will provide any available easement documents for ERSC's
incorporation into the base map.
Field work will include both control and topographic survey. During the control survey, horizontal datum will reference the California
State Plane Coordinate System (NAD 83) Zone 6, and Vertical Datum will reference NAVD 88 or NGVD 29 based upon City of La Quinta
or other local benchmarks. The control survey will collect necessary existing monumentation and set monuments for use during the
topographic survey.
The topographic survey will be performed on the east side of Washington Street from Calle Tampico to the bridge north of Avenida
Ultimo and the north side of Avenue 50 from Avenida Montero to Washington Street. Topographic survey will include street cross
sections at 50-foot intervals or closer where needed to depict accurate conditions from centerline to each right-of-way for approximately
2,045 lineal feet. Cross sections will include all points of control such as pavement angle points, existing above -ground structures,
driveway elevations, floor elevations, existing curb elevation, if any, existing pavement elevations, finish surface and top of wall, and
private property elevations forjoining to existing improvements as required. Elevations at all proposed join points will be obtained, and
all existing ADA ramps will be checked to confirm they meet current standards.
Following field work, ERSC will reduce the data collected from the survey and draft project base maps. The base maps will include all
collected surface features, contours, right-of-way, adjacent property lines, and any easement information provided for the project.
Deliverables:
• Topographic Base Map at 20' scale with 1' contour intervals (Autocad/PDF format)
Assumptions
• Necessary monumentation exists in the field as in records to map existing right-of-way
Field Walk
The field walk will serve as a crucial first step in the project, enabling the design team to conduct an on -site assessment of existing
conditions along the proposed sidewalk alignment. This walkthrough will involve key City representatives and the design engineer to
identify potential challenges such as utility conflicts, grading issues, and landscape adjustments. The field walk will also help confirm
right-of-way boundaries, assess the condition of existing infrastructure, and gather data necessary for preliminary design development.
Observations from this activity will reflect on the conceptual design, ensuring that the design aligns with real -world conditions and
addresses site -specific needs effectively.
Preliminary 35% Concept
The preliminary design phase will focus on developing a conceptual layout that establishes the foundation for the project. This phase
will include creating geometric approval drawings to outline the pathway alignment, grading limits, and preliminary estimates. Utility
conflicts identified during the field walk will be addressed, and coordination letters will be prepared for utility adjustments. The
design will incorporate key elements such as the sidewalk's width and ADA ramp design while considering integration with existing
infrastructure and planned regional projects. This phase ensures that all essential components are identified early, enabling efficient
progress toward detailed design and minimizing potential delays. The preliminary concept will be reviewed and approved by the City
before proceeding with subsequent project stages.
In addition, based on Amendment No. 1, ERSC understands that coordination with the Homeowners Association (HOA) will be an
important component for aligning the project with community expectations. Therefore, ERSC will be involved in any coordination
requests with the Montero Estates HOA and the City, and any concerns or questions will be incorporated into the concept design
TASK C - CONSTRUCTION PLAN PREPARATION & COORDINATION
With information gathered in prior tasks, ERSC will create base maps on which the plans will be designed. The record drawings obtained
from the City and utility information received will be meshed with the surface items obtained from the survey to create a comprehensive
6
base plan on which to prepare demolition and improvement plans. It is anticipated that all to -scale plans will be prepared at 1"=20' or
40' scale. Details will be prepared on a larger scale as necessary to provide clarity. All submittals shall include electronic versions of the
documents in a format acceptable to the City.
Deliverables:
• 65%, 90% and 100% Progress Plans — 24" x 36" size bond paper
o Plans include Demolition, Street, Signing & Striping, Traffic Modification, and Landscape (All plans at 20' or 40' scale)
• Final Plan (24" x 36" Size Mylars)
o Plans include all submitted from 100%, at scales identified.
Demolition plans
The demolition plans will outline the necessary steps for removing the existing retaining wall, landscaping, curb ramps, and any other
infrastructure that may interfere with the new sidewalk construction. These plans will include detailed specifications for safely and
efficiently removingthe existing improvements. Special attention will be given to minimizing disruption to the surrounding environment,
and the disposition of the existing improvements will also be specified. ERSC does not anticipate the removal of existing palm trees. The
demolition plans will be integrated with the overall project design to ensure a seamless transition to the new sidewalk, aligning with
the planned grading and utility adjustments.
Street Improvement Plans
The Street Improvement Plans will focus on the necessary modifications to Washington Street and Avenue 50 to accommodate
the sidewalk and enhance overall safety and functionality. These plans will include the design of the new sidewalk alignment, curb
adjustments as needed, curb ramp detail, and grading.
With the base maps created for the various
plans, the Street Improvement Plans will
provide plan view. The plan will show the
east side of the street for Washington
Street and the north side for Avenue 50
from the right-of-way lines to center line
and all existing surface. The layout will
assume each sheet will be double stacked
in the plan view unless curb adjustments
are made.
Washington Street is classified as an Urban
Arterial Road and Avenue 50 as an Arterial
Road under the Regional Traffic Signal
Synchronization Project by the Coachella
Valley Association of Governments (CVAG).
Washington Street follows the typical
section per Standard 115 of the City, with
a right-of-way (ROW) dimension of 120 feet, a raised median of 14 feet, and a width of 51 feet from curb to curb. Avenue 50 follows
Standard 125 of the City, with a right-of-way (ROW) dimension of 100 feet, a raised median of 12 feet, and a width of 38 feet from curb
to curb.
ERSC has assumed the following section for the proposed improvements based on the RFP and city standards: a 5-foot meandering
sidewalk adjacent to the existing curb where possible unless existing landscaping needs to be accommodated. This configuration is
designed to accommodate pedestrians traveling north -south and south -north on Washington Street and west -east and east -west on
Avenue 50.
--.wwrw-zj The joining of the existing ground surface at the back of the sidewalk is anticipated,
with minor grading. If the elevation change created by the new back of sidewalk to the
existing improvements is too significant to be addressed b grading, t will be supported -- g p g y g g, i
by the existing retaining walls/garden walls or proposed retaining curb or retaining wall
as needed. The proposed sidewalk will join the existing sidewalk on the south side of
Washington Street, approximately 100 feet from Calle Tampico. On the north side, it will
join the existing sidewalk at the channel north of Avenida Ultimo. On Avenue 50, it will
join at the ECR of the existing curb ramp at Washington Street and Avenue 50, ending
at the BCR of the existing curb at Washington Street and Ave Montero. ERSC does not
anticipate proposing any ramp at this location.
New ramp will be reconstructed with ADA-compliant ramps that meet current standards
i,. at the Village Shopping Center. Ramps will be detailed at a 1" = 10' scale where necessary
;.. t to show or clarify modifications. Clearance and ramp dimensions, slopes, and spot
elevations to confirm slopes will be provided.
Additionally, ERSC will evaluate the existing condition of the retaining walls/garden walls and propose potential solutions to address
the wall deficiencies, which will be discussed and coordinated with the City. After the City's approval, they will be incorporated into
the Street Improvement Plans. Any proposed design will match the existing design and the standard previously used for construction.
Sheets containing cross -sections at 50-foot intervals shall be generated for use in design and City review but will only be incorporated
into the project plans if requested.
