FINANCIAL STATEMENT: See below.
DESCRIPTION:
Traffic Engineering services are provided by the firm of TJKM. Originally,
TJKM functioned as a subcontractor under the Santina and Thompson agreement.
In 1985, the City entered into a separate agreement with both Santina and
Thompson and TJKM.
Chris Kinzel has prepared a self-evaluation of his firm' s performance. The
staff report will highlight pertinent sections of the information. In
addition, the existing contract and an amendment covering the new rate
schedule is attached for review.
Outline of Services Provided
TJKM provides traffic engineering services generally in the areas of private
development review, Capital Improvement design and construction review. In
addition, they perform traffic engineering studies as a result of citizen or
City requests. These functions have been performed in a timely and
professional manner.
Approximately 50 studies have been made this year as a result of Staff or
resident requests. Some of the more notable ones were the stop sign study
for Brighton Drive at Callan Street, updating of the speed surveys for most
of the City streets that require such surveys, and the annual traffic
accident analysis and safety recommendations. More complicated traffic
studies have been performed on private developments such as the Hansen Ranch
and Blaylock/Gleason/Fletcher (Donlan Canyon) properties. Also, TJKM has
participated in studies regarding the proposed BART station locations and is
involved in many of the capital improvement projects. TJKM also reviews and
makes changes to signal timing as needed.
A representative of TJKM attends meetings of the Traffic Safety Committee and
performs necessary studies and makes recommendations. This Committee is made
up of the Public Works Director, Maintenance Superintendent, a member of
TJKM' s staff, and one or two representatives of Dublin Police .Services. The
Committee has been reasonably effective in responding to requests as well as
bringing traffic problems to light and solving them.
Cost Effectiveness
TJKM continues to charge the City at a reduced (80%) hourly rate for general
traffic studies. This reduced rate work amounted to 80% of TJKM's charges
for the 1989 calendar year. The remaining 20% was expended on capital
projects and private development review.

ITEM NO. 9 COPIES TO: Chris Kinzel, TJKM
A breakdown of TJKM's billings by fiscal year is as follows:
Estimated Budget
1986-87 1987-88 1988-89 1989-90 1990-91
General Traffic Engineering $42,986 $46,023 $32,490 $47,000 $49,000
Private Development Review 9,491 12,616 6,588 6,500 6,500
Capital Projects 43,377 39,364 12,882 10,500 10,500
Total $95,854 $98,003 $51,960 $64,000 $66,000
The total engineering fees vary, based mostly on the Capital Improvement
Program devoted to the design of traffic signals and related improvements and
on the private development review workload.
1990-91 General Engineering
TJKM will continue to staff the City's Traffic Safety Committee and provide
traffic safety studies on an as-directed basis, as well as prepare the annual
traffic safety report. This report includes analysis of high accident
locations, the accident map, and the updating of traffic volume counts at
selected intersections. TJKM also reviews private development projects to
analyze and make recommendations for traffic-related improvements.
Significant 1990-91 Capital Projects
Capital Improvement projects that TJKM will be working on in 1990-91 are:
1) San Ramon Road Phase IV.
2) Dublin Boulevard Improvements (Donlon Way to Village Parkway) .
3) Dublin Boulevard Extension - Dougherty Road to Tract 5900.
4) Pedestrian Signal Handicap Modifications.
The provision of these services impacts the proposed 1990-91 Capital
Improvement Budget.
Proposed Agreement
Mr. Kinzel has requested hourly rate increases which average 12.5%. The
attachment to Mr. Kinzel's letter identifies these proposed rate changes.
Staff has attached an additional comparison of these increases by
classification. Based on the actual hours spent by classification for the
first eleven months of 1989-90, the weighted average increase in fees would
be 13.3%.
While a 12.5% increase may seem significant, TJKM had requested very small
increases of 2.5% and 3% for the previous two years. The average increase
for the last three years is 6% per year. TJKM's charges for general
engineering and studies, which account for the major portion of their work,
are billed at 80% of the contract rate, as shown in the hourly rate schedule.
The general trend has been to reduce the total number of hours required of
TJKM for general traffic engineering. This trend may indicate that the
proactive approach to traffic problems has been successful in reducing
citizen complaints and/or the traffic problems inherited upon incorporation
are being solved.
Based on the same percentage distribution of TJKM staff utilized in 1989-90,
the projected number of person hours is being decreased by 8% (52 hours) for
the 1990-91 budget.
This year, Michelle DeRobertis, who attended the Traffic Safety Committee
meetings for TJKM, was promoted to Office Manager at TJKM' s Walnut Creek
office. In the interim, Ty Tekawa has filled in. TJKM has agreed in the
upcoming year to replace Ty with a person at a lower classification. This
will be consistent with the staffing level used in the past.
Areas to Improve
In his memo, Chris Kinzel indicates that improvement could be made in that a
proactive approach should be taken in the areas of signal timing, operation,
and special maintenance. He suggests that improvement could be made in
Y
2 -
regard to the standards and procedures by which traffic signing, striping,
and marking are accomplished. Additionally, Mr. Kinzel notes that traffic
operations during street and utility construction and maintenance have
improved but still need attention.
Staff has discussed these items with Mr. Kinzel and proposes to implement
them as follows:
1) TJKM will supply a traffic engineer approximately once a month to
review signal timing in the field and look for defects and
enhancements that can be made.
2) Staff proposes to develop a standard policy for installing and
replacing signs and markings to update some of the existing devices
from older installations.
3) Staff has ordered extra copies of the "State of California Manual
of Traffic Controls" and "Work Area Traffic Control Handbook. " A
program is proposed to be implemented for encroachment permittees
to include the applicable sections of these standards as an
attachment for permits.
Mr. Kinzel states that the cost of this work will be minor and will fall
within the category of general engineering work that is already being done.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council review the written and oral reports,
provide input, and adopt the resolution approving the amendment to the
agreement.

MEMORANDUM
February 26, 1990
TO: Lee Thompson, City Engineer
FROM: Chris D. Kinzel
SUBJECT: City of Dublin Contract Review and Proposal
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide you information regarding the traffic
engineering services TJKM provides to the City of Dublin. As requested, the first
section of this memo deals with our self-assessment of TJKM performance for the
past year.
1. Contract Compliance
The administrative duties, development review duties and capital
projects for which TJKM has been involved range from the review of
routine citizen requests, requests from the City council for traffic control
changes, new traffic signal designs, traffic impact analyses for proposed
new development, review of site plans for proposed development, signal
timing studies, and investigation of school related traffic safety issues.
See attachment for a list of specific projects.
We believe we have provided these services in a "prompt, professional
and workmanlike manner in accordance with the standards of the
engineering profession".
During this past year, TJKM has continued to participate in the City
Traffic Committee which meets twice monthly and is attended by
representatives of the City Engineer's Office, maintenance, TJKM, and
the Police Department. The committee allows a high level of
coordination of traffic engineering and traffic safety issues among the
affected departments and in the coordination of the staff position of the
various City -departments for those items that appear on the agenda of
the City Council. At this meeting, many routine items are resolved and
other more complex issues are designated for further study with the
knowledge of all parties.
During the past year, staffing of TJKM work for the City of Dublin has
been fairly consistent. Senior Engineer Michelle DeRobertis attended
the City Traffic Committee meetings and handled and coordinated all
traffic investigations assigned by the committee, the City Engineer or the
4637 Chabot Drive,Suite 214,Pleasanton,California 94588•(41: 1 J

Lee Thompson -2- February 26 1990
City Manager. Michelle also conducted most of the traffic impact
evaluations for proposed development within the City of Dublin. She
was supervised by Principal Associate Ty Tekawa who attended
meetings in Michelle's absence and provided general review and also
coordinated all traffic engineering design functions including traffic
signals and signing and striping design or review. John Gildea
coordinates signal timing and operations. Chris Kinzel attends most
Council meetings, and provides overall direction to other TJKM staff
members. Michelle has recently been promoted to Office Manager of our
Concord office. Ty Tekawa will be replacing Michelle on a permanent
basis.
Other TJKM members are assigned as needed to assist these three,
particularly in the area of design and in'gathering of field data. Much of
the design work is accomplished at the Assistant Traffic Engineer or
Traffic Engineer level. The TJKM goal continues to be to provide traffic
engineering services to the City of Dublin at the lowest possible
classification level, while providing appropriate review and supervision.
2. Availability
TJKM maintains its offices in northern Pleasanton, not far from Dublin
City Hall. Generally, we feel we have been available as needed to
provide traffic engineering services. Given the relatively large TJKM
office in Pleasanton, we generally are available as needed.
3. Responsiveness
Generally, traffic engineering matters do not require immediate
response. We feel our overall responsiveness has improved in the past
year.
4. Cost Effectiveness
During the 12 calendar months of 1989, TJKM expended a total of
952 hours on Dublin projects and invoiced a total of $57,034.99. Using
the total billings and the total hours, the average hourly rate was $59.91,
somewhat higher than the previous $51.89 rate for 1988. Of the total
amount $43,336.22 (76 percent) was for regular day to day traffic
services; $2,202.00 (4 percent) was for special City projects; $1,419.18
(2 percent) was for developer funded studies and $10,077.59 (18 percent)
was for design of capital projects.
5. Program Development and Implementation
This item deals with timeliness and accuracy and would best be
addressed by the City Engineer and the City staff.

Lee Thompson -3- February 26 1990
Proposal -
TJKM proposes to continue offering services to the City of Dublin. If appropriate,
the contract term would be from July 1, 1990, to June 30, 1991. The proposed
hourly rates for 1990-91 are included on the attachment. The attachment indicates
the current rates as well as the proposed rates for the City of Dublin along with the
reduced rates. The proposed rates would apply to any capital improvement project
or project funded by private developers. The reduced rates would apply to all other
traffic engineering services provided by TJKM. Reduced rates are a maximum of
80 percent of the proposed rates, rounded to the nearest dollar. The proposed
reduced rates average a 12.0 percent increase over current rates.
TJKM requires no insurance subsidy from the City of Dublin. Our errors and
omission insurance limits are $500,000.
As to ways that traffic engineering services can be improved in the City of Dublin,
we feel there are some areas that could receive more traffic engineering emphasis.
Traffic signal timing, operation and special maintenance appears to function on a
basis in which incidents are responded to, rather than anticipated. Traffic
operations during street and utility construction and maintenance appears to be
improving but in need of continuing attention.
We feel some improvements could be made with regard to the standards and
procedures by which traffic signing, striping and pavement markings are
accomplished. We would like to participate in a program which would establish,
formalize and maintain the highest standards in these areas.
We have appreciated the opportunity to conduct a brief traffic review of proposed
development within the City. We feel we have been able to contribute positive
comments on access, driveways, circulation, and parking within the development.
We hope to continue in this role.
We continue to be sensitive to the issue of conflict of interest or a perception of
conflict. TJKM has extensive involvement with many public and private entities in
the valley, hopefully to the advantage of the City of Dublin. We appreciate the
City's flexibility in this area.
TJKM is very pleased to be providing traffic engineering service to the City of
Dublin and hopes to continue providing such services as long as the City desires.
Among the possible offsetting advantages of consulting services provided by TJKM
are the availability of experienced senior personnel and a large group of traffic
engineers to handle peak loads.
Please contact me if there are questions on any of these matters.
