City of Brentwood - Brentwood, CA When faced with an extremely high level of development activity and limited in-house resources, the City of Brentwood retained Stevenson, Porto & Pierce, Inc. to augment staff resources and increase the flow of projects through local processes. Mr. Porto's role has included on-going current planning support in the areas of project review and analysis, developer negotiation, staff report preparation, ordinance preparation, planning commission and city council presentations. Mr. Porto's specific assignments have included all residential projects for the last three and a half years, including review of developer's plans, developer negotiation, application processing, staff report preparation and presentations to both planning commission and city council. Large scale subdivision projects have required Mr. Porto's thorough review and analysis, including off-site view considerations, grading, drainage, circulation and infrastructure. Three projects, each totalling 1,000 units or more within the City's hillside areas, have been specific projects assigned and completed. 2. Town of Los Altos Hills - Los Altos Hills, CA ..,. , ' The Town of Los Altos Hills retained Stevenson, Porto & Pierce, Inc. wherein Mr. Porto acted as Interim Town Planner.

Downto\m DanvilIe Development Ordinance - DanvilIe, CA A specific plan prepared for the nine separate subareas comprising downtown Danville did not include adoption of an ordinance to regulate, enforce or implement the plan. Stevenson, Porto & Pierce, Inc. and Mr. Porto were retained to prepare the development ordinance incorporating all development standards, land use types, and architectural standards to assure the historic commitment to the downtown neighborhoods. 5. Grading Ordinance - DanvilIe, CA Incorporated in 1981, Danville, an area of hilly to rolling terrain with many geologic impacts including slipping, subsidence, rock ledges and seismic activity, never enacted a grading ordinance. Stevenson, Porto & Pierce, Inc. and Mr. Porto prepared a comprehensive grading ordinance which addressed the various geologic issues in addition to the City's desire to limit hillside development. 6. 317 Acre Specific Plan - California City, CA California City, located in the upper Mojave Desert, acquired 317 acres around the local municipal golf course. As a consultant to the City's Redevelopment Agency, Mr. Porto developed a mixed-use commercia1jbusinessjofficejresidentialland plan, maximizing the developability of the site while interfacing with the municipal golf course. 7.

Prior to joining Stevenson, Porto & Pierce, Inc., Mr. Young had over twenty years of experience with four private engineering firms and one municipality where his duties ranged from chainman of survey crews/engineering aide to Vice President in charge of public works design projects. Research and analysis are Mr. Young's prime focus. His ability to assist local agencies in evaluating development projects ranges from in-depth investigations of hydrology and hydraulics, lotting studies, tentative map analysis, preparation of specific engineering/public works conditions of approval and appraisal of preliminary design of both dry and wet utilities. As a plan checker for several cities, Mr. Young concentrates on assuring design and ultimately construction of infrastructure which meets or exceeds local agency standards and assures the agency long term maintenance freedom and cost effectiveness. Mr. Young has a wide range of civil engineering experience. The types of projects which he has managed and designed include street improvement/widening projects for local and arterial streets, passenger loading platforms and parking lots for commuter rail stations, storm drain system designs and deficiency studies, pavement investigation and rehabilitation projects, major storm channel studies and design, construction administration, pressure and gravity sewer system designs, sewer lift station design, storm water pump station design and storage facilities, water system distribution and booster station design, residential and commercial development design, NPDES storm water permitting and monitoring, and flood . plain management and mapping to obtain Letter of Map Revision. . "< ) It I.. I : j ! .. . ~~~ 5 Mr. Young has also prepared investigative studies for the State of California Board of Registration, insurance companies, municipalities and attorneys. He brings a strong engineering background to sp2. His duties include engineering management and development of projects for our clients. Mr. Young's experience and track record of quality engineering projects is a valuable asset to our clients. 1. City of Brentwood - Brentwood, CA Stevenson, Porto & Pierce, Inc. and Mr. Young have been retained by the City to assist in the review of infrastructure improvement plans for development projects within the City. Project assignments include checking of final maps; street, sewer, water and storm drain improvement plan review; review of documents for compliance with conditions of approval and City design criteria; and review of developer proposed deviations from standard criteria. The majority of this work has focused on residential subdivisions. The design of most subdivisions in the City includes storm water detention/retention elements which has required coordination with the City and serving flood control district to maintain and improve flood protection within the drainage area. 2. Windsor Way, Brentwood RDA - Brentwood, CA The City of Brentwood Redevelopment Agency acquired property to develop a 2.5 acre senior housing project. Access to this site needed to be provided since the surrounding property was only partially developed. Stevenson, Porto & Pierce, Inc. and Mr. Young were retained to provide street, water and storm drain improvements to serve the site. The project includes preliminary design profiles for adjacent, partially improved roads and the design of full improvements for Windsor Way. The remote site location also requires interim storm drain and retention basin design to handle storm run-off without impacting down-stream developments. 3. Birmingham Ranch - Yucaipa, CA Prior to joining Stevenson, Porto & Pierce, Inc., Mr. Young prepared preliminary design studies and tentative mapping for the 680 acre Birmingham Ranch residential development. The project concept included the development of residential building pads on estate size lots within the foothills below the San Bernardino National Forest. Extensive coordination with City planning and engineering departments, the water district, the National Forest Service, County fire, and adjacent land owners was successfully guided by Mr. Young. This allowed the project to proceed and approval of the tentative map was obtained. Of the 680 acres, 336 acres became developable with the remainder becoming open space. Through extensive work with the City, the plan was revised to eliminate many mass grading areas and still comply with the City grading ordinance. This resulted in the project enhancing its rural atmosphere, while still meeting current design standards. 11 ~~~ 4. West Corona Commuter Rail Station ~ Corona, CA While with another engineering firm, Mr. Young prepared preliminary and final design for a Metrolink Commuter Rail Station in the City of Corona. Preliminary design for the project included site planning, conditional use permit and variance processing. Mr. Young worked closely with the City Planning Department to resolve conditional use permit and variance issues, which included preparation of a white paper on transit facilities parking to aid in the resolution of variance issues. Mr. Young made a formal presentation of the project to the City Council and organized a tour of other rail transit facilities in the area to familiarize the Council with similar design issues. Final design of the project included management and coordination of architectural, structural, geotechnical, electrical, and civil disciplines to prepare construction documents. The federally funded project included processing and coordination with Caltrans, Southern California Regional Rail Authority, AT &SF Railroad, Riverside County Transportation Commission, and the City of Corona. S. Tijeras Creek Monitoring Program ~ Orange County, CA Tijeras Canyon is a pristine area located in southern Orange County. When development began to occur within a drainage area tributary to this canyon, the County of Orange Environmental Management Agency wished to investigate the effects development storm run-off and nuisance flows would have upon the creek bed and canyon. Because of the uncertainty and differing opinions of County Staff and developers, Mr. Young was retained to develop a monitoring plan to study the physical and biological aspects of the creek over a fifteen-year period. This was approximately three~quarters of the ultimate build-out schedule of the primary developer for the area tributary to the creek. Funding for the studies was supplied through private development with the County responsible for reviewing and approving reports and mitigation measures. The Baseline Study for Tijeras Creek was prepared after some initial development of the area had occurred. Subsequent monitoring reports were prepared on a biennial basis, or, after any significant storms. Monitoring of the Creek included field survey at control sections to measure any erosion/sedimentation of the creek bed, biological surveys to determine changes in plant life, a photo log of the creek bed, and field review/ observation notes with County Staff. Mitigation measures were developed and recommended for implementation by Mr. Young when problem areas were discovered. 6. 213th Street Improvements, Carson RDA - Carson, CA Tbe City of Carson Redevelopment Agency and a local automobile dealership selected a site within one of the redevelopment areas for expansion of the dealership's operation. Tbe site selected required demolition, site cleanup and street improvements/widening of 213th Street. 6 e .".. ," e::., /g ,- j I I I : I I I j! e:.- e:: ~~ 7 The Carson Redevelopment Agency contracted with Mr. Young, while at a previous firm, to prepare construction documents for the improvements and rehabilitation of 213th Street. Construction documents included street improvement plans to widen 213th Street along the site frontage, rehabilitation of a structural pavement section for a one mile segment of street, traffic control plans, striping plans, and construction specifications. 7.

The site was bordered by Interstate 80, Southern Pacific Railroad tracks, and single-family residential uses. The project was unique in that it was the City's first attempt at in-fill development of this type and magnitude. Potential impacts analyzed in the EIR included transportation/circulation, air quality, visual/aesthetics, biology, and hazardous resources (methane gas was found to be migrating on-site from a nearby landfIll).

CANNON DESIGN GROUP EXPERIENCE BRENTWOOD HILLS -Brentwood, California CDG served as an e>..1ension of Brent wood's Community Development staff for the review and processing ofa 300 residential lot development proposal on 100 acres at the cities growing edge. Larry Cannon reviewed project proposals, prepared staffreports for Plarming Commission study sessions and hearings, coordinated the work of the selected environmental impact specialist, and prepared final documents and resolutions for Commission and Council adoption of a General Plan Amendment, Annexation and Prezoning. He also followed on with detailed review and coordination of the project's Tentative Map. Significant issues included revisions of the plan to relate to the special topographic conditions of the site, coordination of policies for open space buffers between the cities of Brent wood and Antioch, resolution of uncertainties regarding site access relative to the future Highway 4 Bypass, road and open space connections to adjacent subdivision projects, and the phase out of several active oil wells. SPECIAL PLANNlNG AREA "D" - Brentwood, California CDG also served as an extension of city stafffor this 325-acre mixed use development involving six property owners. The final plan included residential development at a variety of densities and regional commercial uses. The planning area was bordered along its entire northern boundary by Marsh Creek _ a waterway consisting of a mix of natural riparian environment and groomed flood control channeling. Integration of a substantial flood control basin was a major part of the project's challenge. CDG worked directly with the land owners and the Planning Commission to craft a mutually acceptable plan, and prepared the final PD documents for adoption. Study sessions with the Planning Commission, supported by comprehensive analyses and staff reports, assisted in isolating issues and making the review and planning process relatively painless for both the Commission and the Applicant. COWELL RANCH - Brentwood, California CDG is currently working with the City ofBrentwood's Community Development Department in the review and evaluation of a 4300-acre proposed mixed use project including 5300 residential units, retail shopping, business park uses, recreational facilities and a community college site.

We have tho:ougWYhi~njoYle~ wOhir~g with city staff on the Eastern Dublin project and e" __:,: look forward to contmuing t s re atIOns p. Sycamore has significant experience with biological studies, field construction monitoring and restoration planning. Because we are local, our staff can efficiently provide support services to staffin a number of areas, We are qualified to conduct all wetland, wildlife and plant studies, conununicate findings in plain English, and identifY feasible solutions to constraints, We understand that the City wants the Eastern Dublin project to proceed efficiently and smootWy, and we believe our familiarity with the subregion and the programs of the Specific Plan make us particularly well suited to provide these services. Depending upon the specific nature ofthe scope, biological studies would be provided by our botanist/ecologist, wildlife biologist or restorationist, at a rate of $65 per hour. Construction monitoring would primarily be provided by Project Manager, Judy Bendix, at a rate of $65 per hour, or Principal, Marylee Guinon, at a rate of $85 per hour. Our attached list of representative projects shows a number of biological studies, however several studies currently underway are not in the list. These include: wetland, plant or animal surveys in Livermore, San Ramon, Palo Alto, Orinda, Santa Clara, San Francisco, Y ountvilIe, Martinez, Concord, and unincorporated Contra Costa County lands. We are well versed with recent agency protocols, 'especially time-of-year requirements, As we have discussed, these surveys are different than preconstruction surveys, which are scheduled specifically around anticipated construction starting dates. e:, -', 1 ,.J; ,- ...: :;/ r i- 1I I I II I I I' .:- . Sycamore has provided construction monitoring in a number of capacities, Currently we are the County of Contra Costa's construction monitor for the County Club at Gale Ranch project, We report to Debbie Chamberlain (510-646-2031) and are responsible for a range of tasks, from preconstruction surveys to inspection of grading, construction fencing, wetlands protections and erosion control measures. We have also provided construction monitoring of grading and landscape contractors for implementation of restoration projects. We recently provided these services to the City of Lafayette (Mark Lander 510-284-1951) for two restoration projects that Sycamore designed on Grizzly and Las Trampas creeks, We are very familiar with this area of the County and would bring a significant amount of biological expertise and construction experience to the project, which will allow us to provide these services in a most efficient manner. Sycamore's extensive experience in environmental planning and mitigation has been gained through permitting, mitigation design, field implementation, maintenance and monitoring of numerous public and private projects. We have broad experience throughout California in a variety of wetland and upland habitats, Our revegetation construction experience began in the early 1980's with many design-build projects, giving Judy Bendix and I a real world appreciation of contractor and equipment requirements, from adequate site access and staging areas to cost effective grading approaches and field flexibility, Since the advent of mitigation plans and specs, Sycamore has monitored construction projects on a number of occasions and we fully understand the challenges presented by contractor education and communication, schedule demands, equipment restrictions, and workable problem solving approaches in the field, Our construction supervision experience allows us to identify potential problems that would occur during construction, and suggest feasible proactive solutions. Our monitoring will emphasize clear documentation of each site visit, consistency of message, proactive identification of conflicts, thorough follow-up and feasible problem solving should problems arise, In the absence of specific information, we cannot prepare a specific scope, I would suggest the City issue a purchase order not to exceed a certain amount without prior authorization from the City of Dublin. When a task arises, Sycamore will prepare a fee estimate and scope for that particular task. This is similar to the way we operate with Debbie Chamberlain of Contra Costa County. If you require any additional information or have any questions concerning the contents of this proposal, please contact me. Weare enthusiastic about continuing to work with the City and thank you for your review of our proposal.

Thomas Parker, Professor of Biology San Francisco State University 1987-1989 Freelance Botanical Consultant As a botanist-vegetation ecologist, Mr. Wood has considerable experience conducting field-intensive evaluations of wetlands, rare plants and natural communities for habitat management, environmental impact and restoration planning. Mr. Wood brings to projects a wide range of experience in plant ecology, soils and geology, fire ecology, wetlands ecology and delineation, environmental policy and permitting, and hazardous materials assessment. He has worked with other consultants, agencies, planners, non-profit organizations and local universities on the constraints and opportunities presented by botanical resources, especially rare and endangered species, for impact analysis of coastal sage scrub, vernal pool, salt and freshwater marsh, riparian, oak woodland, native grassland, wildlife and fisheries resources. Mr. Wood participated in biological surveys for the Multiple Species Conservation Program, a large-scale biodiversity and planning project covering 567,000 acres in San Diego County. He coordinated biologists for extensive surveys of over 50 target sensitive plant species, detailed vegetation mapping, and habitat evaluation of over 30,000 acres of undeveloped and previously uninventoried lands in San Diego County. The project utilized GIS and population viability analyses to identify biologically valuable regions of the County to assist in long-term growth planning, preserve design and sensitive species recovery. For Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, Mr. Wood conducted focused surveys for 20 target sensitive plant species at four reservoir site alternatives, off-site facilities, and potential mitigation sites in eastern Riverside County, for the Eastside Reservoir Project. Tasks included mapping and estimating population sizes of sensitive species populations, analyzing potential impacts and recommending mitigation measures. The project included a survey for the federally-listed endangered slender-homed spineflower, collection of quantitative density data, seed collection, and initiation of a seed generation program.

Mr. Wood assisted in the design, installation. and monitoring of a mitigation program for the state-listed endangered thread-leaf brodiaea (Brodiaea filifolia) near the town of San Marcos, San Diego County. The program entailed establishing a 12-acre preserve for tbe restoration of suitable babitat, transplantation of the species, reestablishment of native purple needlegrass, establishing experimental plots, and collecting field data to monitor the effects of different treatments and overall project success. The project required negotiation of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the client and the California Department of Fish and Game, .~.
