SR 02-13-2018 3I City Council Report City Council Meeting: February 13, 2018 Agenda Item: 3.I 1 of 4 To: Mayor and City Council From: David Martin, Director, Traffic Management (PCD) Subject: Award Contract to Transpo Group for Engineering Design Services for the Downtown Real-Time Parking Project Recommended Action Staff recommends that the City Council: 1. Award RFP#141 to Transpo Group, Inc., a Washington-based company for Engineering Design services for the Downtown Real-Time Parking Signs Project. 2. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute an agreement with Transpo Group, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $94,730 for one year, with two-additional one-year renewal options in the subtotal amount of $10,270, on the same terms and conditions for a total amount not to exceed $105,000 over a three-year period, with future year funding contingent on Council budget approval. Executive Summary The Downtown Real-Time Parking Project is identified in the City’s Downtown Community Plan as a means to reduce traffic congestion and help drivers more quickly find available parking. This project will develop construction-ready plans, specifications, and estimates for real-time parking and traveler information signs for motorists traveling to Santa Monica’s Downtown parking garages adjacent to 2nd Street, 4th Street, and the Pier that conform to the City’s wayfinding standards. Staff recommends Transpo Group, Inc. prepare the engineering design and construction documents in an amount not to exceed amount of $105,000 over a three-year period. Background In 2014, the City completed the Real-Time Beach Parking Project that installed 21 digital signs that direct motorist to the beach parking lots. These signs operate daily to display wayfinding messages and lot occupancy and space availability on a real-time basis. 2 of 4 In 2016, City staff began coordinating with key Downtown stakeholders and other City Departments to explore the expansion of the current real-time system into the Downtown. Discussion topics included location, size, and aesthetics of the proposed signs. Several meetings were held including staff from Downtown Santa Monica Inc., Santa Monica Place (Macerich), and Santa Monica Pier Corporation. In 2017, the City completed the installation of 100 static wayfinding signs in Downtown. The signs vary in size and conform to the City’s latest wayfinding sign standards. Discussion This project involves the engineering design of two types of dynamic message signs (DMS) to be located within the Downtown area bounded by Ocean Avenue, California Avenue, Pico Boulevard, and 6th Street. Both types of signs will conform to the City’s latest standard for wayfinding signs. The first type is a small, two-sided DMS proposed at the entrance to seven Downtown parking garages indicated in Attachment A. The second type of DMS is a full matrix sign that can display multiple lines of text and graphics. These DMS will be placed at 18 strategic locations near City entrances indicated in Attachment B. The DMS will be integrated with the City’s parking availability system and display messages directing motorists from the freeway off-ramps to the nearest available parking facilities based on real-time occupancy conditions. The DMS will also have the capability to display custom messages and will assist the management and diversion of traffic during special events, planned closures, or unexpected incidents. The final locations for sign installation will be determined in coordination with other City departments, including Community and Cultural Services, Finance, Information Services, and Public Works. Consultant Selection On October 17, 2017, the City published a Request for Proposal (RFP) to obtain engineering design services for the Downtown Real-Time Parking Project. The RFP was posted on the City’s on-line bidding site, and notices were advertised in the Santa Monica Daily Press in accordance with the City Charter and Municipal Code provisions. 3 of 4 41 vendors downloaded the RFP. Four proposals were received on November 9, 2017 from the firms listed below.  Advantec Consulting Engineers  Kimley-Horn and Associates  Michael Baker International  Transpo Group Inc. Proposals were evaluated based on the criteria in SMMC 2.24.073 and as outlined in the RFP, which included Experience/Technical Competence, Ability to Meet Work Plan and Timelines, Project Approach, Cost of Services and Cost Control, Stability/ References, and the Value Added/ Breadth of Service. In January 2017, the selection committee, comprised of staff from Planning and Community Development, recommended Transpo Group, Inc. to provide the engineering design services for this project. Transpo Group demonstrated extensive knowledge and experience with real-time parking projects, and similar capital improvement projects in the City of Seattle, Puget Sound Transit, and San Francisco. Transpo Group also demonstrated through past projects its ability to offer project design on schedule and at a competitive price. Based on these criteria, Transpo Group is recommended as the best qualified firm. Financial Impacts and Budget Actions The contract to be awarded to Transpo Group Inc., is for an amount not to exceed $105,000. Funds of $105,000 are available in the FY 2017-18 Capital Improvement Program budget. The contract will be charged to account C010994.589000 – Parking Guidance System. 4 of 4 Prepared By: Andrew Maximous, Principal Traffic Engineer Approved Forwarded to Council Attachments: A.

Dear City Council: (1) Please pull Item 3.I. from the Consent Calendar and direct Staff to not put it back on an agenda until the Civic Center Sports Field is completed. (2) Please make it clear to staff in no uncertain terms that the field must be fully reflected throughout the Local Coastal Plan and that the LCP cannot feature a plan to direct beach parkers or other visitor parkers to the Civic Lot so as to create data that would defeat the field there. (3) Please direct staff to agendize the Civic Center Sports Field for your February 27, 2018 meeting and declare it permanent at that time and instruct Staff to submit the field project immediately to the Coastal Commission using current parking data (such as was submitted with the ECLS and CSB projects). Thank you for the steps you continue to take to make this field happen - e.g., approving in January a modification of the agreement with the field design contractor and approval tonight of the additional $1,000,000 to fully-fund the field. But surely you see that these steps are meaningless if you allow Staff to undermine the field in so many other ways. I am so grateful that you understand how important this field is to our community.

Last night, Council earmarked $3.45 million for the construction of the sports field in the Civic Center. Council also approved $200,000 to complete an initial design and feasibility study for the field in the upcoming FY 2016‐18 Capital Improvement Project budget. The Council unanimously expressed their commitment to completion of the project as expeditiously as feasible. Council acknowledged that the City must conduct the proper public reviews with the California Coastal Commission and Santa Monica’s Parks and Recreation and Planning Commission. Council was also cognizant of the need to ensure all environmental remediation is conducted to ensure a safe playing field given a gas station occupied the corner of Pico and 4th at one time. Item 3-I 02/13/18 43 of 68 Item 3-I 02/13/18 2 The Civic Center Sports Field 1.0, as Councilmember O’Connor called it, is now on track, and City Staff are going to move it as quickly as we can, following the necessary roadmap. To keep you up‐to‐date on project progress, I will provide quarterly updates as part of my report to Council. We are also going to create a webpage where you can go for the latest information on progress, recognizing that construction projects like this are subject to circumstances that are sometimes beyond our control. We will share the link as soon as it is live. Estimated schedule June 2016 Budget adoption July ‐ October 2016 Design contract bid, award, and execution October – November 2016 Community outreach October 2016 – May 2017 Site parking study (not yet funded) * December 2016 – April 2017 Design (schematic design, design development) May – July 2017 Regulatory approvals (Planning Commission and Coastal Commission) * August – September 2017 Construction documents (plans and specifications) September 2017 – Feb. 2018 Plan check and approvals March 2018 – July 2018 Construction contract bid, evaluation, and City Council bid award August 2018 – August 2019 Construction I want to thank you for your contribution to the community dialogue that forged consensus on this important community priority. Like so many other worthwhile projects and goals, success flows from partnership, collaboration, focus and tenacity. Together, we can make Santa Monica a city that works for everyone.

(3) Please direct staff to agendize the Civic Center Sports Field for your February 27, 2018 meeting and declare it permanent at that time and instruct Staff to submit the field project immediately to the Coastal Commission using current parking data (such as was submitted with the ECLS and CSB projects). Thank you for the steps you continue to take to make this field happen - e.g., approving in January a modification of the agreement with the field design contractor and approval tonight of the additional $1,000,000 to fully-fund the field. But surely you see that these steps are meaningless if you allow Staff to undermine the field in so many other ways. I am so grateful that you understand how important this field is to our community.

(2) Please make it clear to staff in no uncertain terms that the field must be fully reflected throughout the Local Coastal Plan and that the LCP cannot feature a plan to direct beach parkers or other visitor parkers to the Civic Lot so as to create data that would defeat the field there. (3) Please direct staff to add to the agenda the Civic Center Sports Field for your February 27, 2018 meeting and declare it permanent at that time and instruct Staff to submit the field project immediately to the Coastal Commission using current parking data (such as was submitted with the ECLS and CSB projects). Thank you for the steps you continue to take to make this field happen - e.g., approving in January a modification of the agreement with the field design contractor and approval Tuesday night of the additional $1,000,000 to fully-fund the field.

I have supported the sport field initiative from the beginning and am writing to check on your support. I would respectfully request you attend to the following items: (1) Please pull Item 3.I. from the Consent Calendar and direct Staff to not put it back on an agenda until the Civic Center Sports Field is completed. (2) Please make it clear to staff in no uncertain terms that the field must be fully reflected throughout the Local Coastal Plan and that the LCP cannot feature a plan to direct beach parkers or other visitor parkers to the Civic Lot so as to create data that would defeat the field there. (3) Please direct staff to agendize the Civic Center Sports Field for your February 27, 2018 meeting and declare it permanent at that time and instruct Staff to submit the field project immediately to the Coastal Commission using current parking data (such as was submitted with the ECLS and CSB projects). Thank you for the steps you continue to take to make this field happen - e.g., approving in January a modification of the agreement with the field design contractor and approval tonight of the additional $1,000,000 to fully-fund the field. But surely you see that these steps are meaningless if you allow Staff to undermine the field in so many other ways. I am so grateful that you understand how important this field is to our community. Thank you very much for your support and efforts in making this sports field an integral part of the city's initiatives.
