Approve Budget Change
This amendment adds a not-to-exceed contract amount of$127,290
to the existing agreement with High Quality Engineering (HQE).
The cost of the work performed by HQE is paid by developers
through Eastern Dublin Traffic Impact Fees, and there is no cost to
the City.
DESCRIPTION: On June 16, 1998, the City Council approved an agreement with
High Quality Engineering (HQE) for preparation of a Permit Engineering Evaluation Report (PEER) for
the Hacienda Drive/I-580 and the interim Tassajara Road/I-580 Improvement Projects. The original fee is
a not-to-exceed contract amount of $90,000. The PEER report is required by Caltrans for them to review
and approve the needed improvements within Caltrans right-of-way that are warranted by Koll Business
Center, People Soft and other approved development projects in the Alameda County Surplus Authority
Santa Rita Development.
Now that the PEER report is in the final stages of being approved by Caltrans, Staff is proposing to
extend the original agreement ofHQE to include preparation of Plans, Specifications, and Estimate
(PS&E) for the Hacienda Drive/I-580 improvement project. Caltrans has indicated that once the PEER
has been approved, the interchange improvement plans need to be submitted and approved for the
issuance of a Caltrans encroachment permit for the proposed improvements. The proposed improvements

ITEM NO. 4.11
include a double left-turn pocket in Hacienda Drive into Alameda County Site 16 (People Soft).
Improvements also include the widening of an eastbound offramp left turn pocket and widening of a ,
westbound onramp at the Hacienda Drive interchange with 1-580 (on the Pleasanton side of the freeway)
HQE estimates the cost of preparation of the PS&E for the Hacienda/I-580 improvements to be $161,500.
The balance remaining from the original $ 90,000 contract is $34,210 that will be applied towards the
preparation of the PS&E. The additional budget needed to complete the PS&E for the Hacienda/I-580
improvements is $ 127,290 (see amendment No.1 Budget Summary, $161,500- $34,210= $127,290) that
will bring the total contract amount to $ 217,290 ($90,000 + $127,290= $ 217,290). The work will be
billed on a time-and-materials basis. The Alameda County Surplus Property Authority, as a developer,
has approved the payment of this cost under a separate agenda item at this Co"uncil Meeting.
. .
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution approving the amendment to the.agreement
and authorize a Capital Improvement Project for the construction of improvements to the I-580/Hacienda
Drive interchange.
