SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Department: Public Works
Prepared by: Bill Guerin,
Director of Public Works
City Manager Approval: ________
File No.: 16.01.266
TOPIC: SOUTHERN HEIGHTS BRIDGE REPLACEMENT
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN RAFAEL APPROVING AND
AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH MARK THOMAS AND COMPANY, INC. FOR
FINAL DESIGN AND RIGHT OF WAY SERVICES FOR THE SOUTHERN HEIGHTS BRIDGE
REPLACEMENT PROJECT, CITY PROJECT NO. 11282, AND TO INCREASE THE
COMPENSATION BY $343,499, FOR A TOTAL NOT TO EXCEED AMOUNT OF $585,067
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the resolution.
BACKGROUND: The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) routinely inspects bridges
statewide to ensure the public’s safety. Through this process, the Southern Heights Bridge was identified
as needing to be reconstructed to meet current design, structural, and safety standards. The cost
associated with design and construction of this bridge replacement project is 100 percent funded
through the State’s Highway Bridge Program (HBP); no local match is required.
On June 6, 2016, the San Rafael City Council approved a resolution which authorized the City Manager
to enter into an agreement with Mark Thomas and Company, Inc. to perform preliminary engineering
and conduct public outreach for this project. Following conceptual design and extensive public outreach,
on February 6, 2017, staff presented four design options to the City Council in relation to the width of
the new bridge (see February 6th staff report here). Based on Council’s direction, staff returned to the
Council on February 21, 2017 with a resolution directing staff to move forward with the design of
Option 4, a 12-foot wide traveled way (see February 21st staff report here). With conceptual design and
public input on the proposed bridge type complete, and with the consultant working to obtain
environmental clearance for the project, it is necessary to move forward into the final design stage.
ANALYSIS: Caltrans is funding the bridge replacement project and their procedures require that each
phase of work be approved prior to proceeding to the next step. Therefore, Public Works requested
that Mark Thomas and Company provide two proposals; the first to complete the final design, and the
second to obtain a right of way certificate from Caltrans Office of Local Assistance.
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 2
The proposals are split because final environmental clearance and a complete, final design are required
prior to moving into the Right of Way Certification phase with Caltrans staff. The first proposal in the
amount of $249,751 includes costs associated with final design. The City has already received
authorization from Caltrans to begin final design and seek reimbursement for expenses.
The second proposal, which includes costs associated with obtaining right of way certification through
Caltrans, is in the amount of $93,748. The Right of Way Certification is a written statement summarizing
the status of all right of way related matters pertaining to a proposed construction project. The City has
not yet received permission from Caltrans staff to begin accruing expenses for the right of way phase. As
such, City staff is requesting the Council approve additional funding at this time for the contract with the
understanding that no expenses will be charged against the $93,748 proposal until the City has also
received authorization from Caltrans.
Summary of proposed changes to Mark Thomas and Company contract for Southern Heights Bridge:
Current Contract Amount (Design) $241,568
Proposed Contract Increase (Design) $249,751
Proposed Contract Increase (Right of Way Certification) $93,748
Total Proposed Contract Amount $585,067
Once the City has received environmental clearance and completed final design of the new bridge, the
City will coordinate with Caltrans to receive authorization to proceed with right of way services. Staff has
reviewed the proposals and found them to be complete and within industry standards.
PUBLIC OUTREACH: Staff performed significant public outreach leading to the selection of a preferred
alternative for the bridge design, including two working sessions with the neighbors most affected by
the bridge design to get their input on a preferred design. City staff subsequently made a presentation
to the City Council where many of the affected neighbors provided public comment. At the conclusion
of that session, the Council agreed to the bridge design advocated by the neighborhood.
FISCAL IMPACT: All expenses for this project are reimbursed by Caltrans. While there is some internal
staff time associated with managing the project, there is no direct financial cost to the City associated
with the replacement of the bridge.
The project budget and estimated expenses for design and right of way services are outlined in the
tables below:

PHASE 3 -RIGHT OF WAY
Scope of Work -Southern Heights Bridge Replacement
City of San Rafael
November 17.2017
Phase 1 of the project (Tasks 1 through 5) included project i nitiation, surveying and base mapping, geotechnical
investigation, public outreach, preliminary engineering, and environmental technical studies . Phase 2 of the project
(Tasks 6 through 9) included final design and environmental clearance. Phase 3 will carry the project forward through
the right of way process .
TASK 10.0 RIGHT OF WAY SERVICES
It is anticipated that permanent property acquisition will not be required for the proposed project. However, there will
be need to obtain temporary right of entry to adjacent properties during the construction and potential need to acquire
temporary construction easements (TCE's). Mark Thomas' subconsultant, Hamner, Jewel & Associates (HJA), will provide
right of way acquisition services to the City to support preparation of right of entry agreements and TCE's. All right of
way activities will follow Caltrans Div ision of Local Assistance procedures.
10.1 TCE Exhibits and Descriptions
Once right-of-way needs have been identified, Mark Thomas will prepare (11"xl7") exhibits for the six impacted parcels .
These exhibits will show the impacted area laid over an aerial photograph . Areas of temporary easement and
encumbrances will be shown to assist in the appraisal process. Additionally, Mark Thomas will prepare up to six legal
descriptions with 8-1/2" x 11" plats for Temporary Construction Easements. A draft of each legal description and exhibit
drawing will be submitted to the City for review and comments. The legal description and exhibit plat will be stamped
and signed only after City approval.
10.2 Temporary Construction Easements
HJA will identify affected property owners; prepare nominal value wavers for up to three TCE's and appraisals for up to
three additional TCE's .
Once the valuation/appraisal process is complete, and the values are reviewed and pre-approved by the City, HJA will
prepare offer packages for each owner that would include an offer letter, Valuation/Appraisal Summary Statement,
proposed ROW Agreement and Temporary Construct ion Easement Deed, and a right of way acquisition informational
brochure. These documents would be presented to the City for its review and pre-approval prior to presenting offers to
property owners. After offer presentation, HJA would pursue agreements with each owner to finalize the right of way
transfers. It is always our goal to reach mutually acceptable amicable agreements on the City's behalf, and we have a
very high success rate of doing so, however if for any reason we do not gain property owner cooperation, we would
consult w ith the project team and City Attorney if appropriate to identify optional courses of action.
This scope is based on the understanding that no structures will be impacted and no occupant displacements will occur.
No permanent rights will be required .
Task 10 Oeliverables:
• Plats & Legal Descr i ptions -Up to six (6) TCE's
• Nominal Value Waivers -Up to three (3) parcels
