CITY OF RENTON By:_____________________________ CONSULTANT By:____________________________ Armondo Pavone Mayor Jon B. Keiser Vice President _____________________________ Date _____________________________ Date Attest _____________________________ Jason A. Seth City Clerk Approved as to Legal Form By: __________________________ Shane Moloney Renton City Attorney Contract Template Updated 06/17/2021 March 30, 2022 AGENDA ITEM #7. b) March 15, 2022 Betsy Severtsen Capital Projects Coordinator City of Renton Parks Planning and Natural Resources 1055 S Grady Way, 6th Floor Renton, WA 98057 Subject: Gene Coulon Park North Water Walk – Construction Administration Dear Betsy: The City of Renton has requested a proposal for services by PND Engineers, Inc. to provide construction administration services for the North Water Walk in Gene Coulon Park. The project is planned to bid in May, 2022 with North Water Walk closure and construction beginning in September, 2022. Overall, fabrication and construction is anticipated to take 36 weeks. The tasks included are detailed below under a new Task 10. Proposed budgets are included in each task item detailed below, with additional scope proposed for existing tasks to provide budget for changes previously requested by the City. SCOPE OF WORK Task 2 – North Water Walk Rehabilitation Description of Work As part of this Amendment 4, HPE proposes to add budget to compensate for expenses already incurred with the addition of the design of a new 50A circuit to the Pilot House. The 50A circuit was not originally scoped, but was added to the design at the City’s request partway through. HPE noted at the time that the design of the 50A circuit may be able to be included in the originally-approved design fee, but as design completed their total effort was over budget, so they are now requesting to be able to submit work for this change for payment, equal to 12 hours of Engineer II expense. Estimated Fee PND will add $1,782.00 in labor fees and markup to Task 2, increasing its task total from $92,566.60 to $94,348.60. Task 3 – Picnic Float Replacement Engineering Description of Work Exhibit A-4AGENDA ITEM #7. b) 2 As part of this Amendment 4, PND proposes to add budget to compensate for expenses already incurred with the addition of the design of new support struts at the picnic floats. The original contract’s scope was to replace the floats but reuse the struts, which are of galvanized steel and appeared in good condition under visual inspection from the water walk and the floats. However, one strut at the north picnic float developed a crack and bent during a storm event while design was underway and the City requested that a design of new struts be added to the scope. For expediency, PND offered to include this scope without requesting a change to see if it could be included in the already-approved budget. However, as design reached completion the budget was exhausted and PND now requests some additional budget, which reflects the amount spent on design and drawing of the new struts. Estimated Fee PND will add $4,160.00 in labor fees to Task 3, increasing its task total from $39,080.80 to $43,240.80. Task 8 – Additional Permitting Support Description of Work As part of this Amendment 4, GeoEngineers proposes to add budget to compensate for expenses already incurred with the addition of tasks to see permitting through to securing of the project permits. Scope items are detailed in Attachment 3. Estimated Fee PND will add $2,860.00 in labor fees and markup to Task 8, increasing its task total from $34,560.00 to $37,420.00. Task 10 – North Water Walk and Floats Construction Administration Description of Work After the final design package is accepted by the City, PND and subconsultants Harbor Power Engineers and HBB will provide the assistance listed below during bidding and construction for the North Water Walk Rehabilitation. The City will serve as primary point of contact for the contractor, and PND will act at the City’s request to provide the items listed below. •Attend and manage the pre-bid Zoom meeting, provide minutes •Attend the pre-construction meeting •Respond to requests for information (RFI’s), substitution requests, or addenda during the bidding & construction phases •Review of technical submittals required by the contract documents for general conformance •Site observation visits as necessary at the steel fabrication and coating plants to ensure general conformance with the contract documents, 8 trips assumed • Weekly site observation visits, or as necessary, to the project site to ensure general conformance with the contract documents, 28 total trips assumed by PND, 2 by HPE and 3 by HBB. •Additional visits requested by the City may be performed as additional services Exhibit A-4AGENDA ITEM #7. b) 3 •Review of Contractor’s pay requests and change orders •Review of Contractor’s record as-built drawings for general conformance •Production of a conformed drawing set after major submittal reviews and as-built drawings upon project completion Estimated Fee PND proposes to add this task with $111,810.00 in labor fees and $758.16 in expenses, with an additional $21,678.57 from subconsultants with markup, for a task total of $130,086.73. Estimated Fee We propose to complete all tasks listed in this proposal on a time and materials basis with a not-to- exceed value of $138,888.73 as detailed in the attached fee proposal. PND will use our updated standard rate schedule (updated February 2022) to invoice costs for labor. Costs for non-mileage expenses will be billed at cost plus 10 percent mark-up.

For this amendment, this requested scope and fee reflects actual costs incurred above the project’s authorized budget for final responses to comments with the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and the City of Renton Parks Planning and Natural Resources (City). This additional budget also includes finalizing the Restoration and Permitting Program (RAP) submittal and subsequent coordination with the USACE regarding the permit timeline for the project. At your request, this scope of services is being submitted to supplement our existing effort and represents effort already expended to finalize the permitting process. This scope of services includes permitting assistance and coordination (internal/external) as presented below. Our proposed additional scope will be included in previously authorized tasks: ■ Task 1: Project Management ■ Task 2: Internal and External Coordination; and ■ Task 3: Permitting Support TASK 1 PROJECT MANAGEMENT GeoEngineers coordinated services internally and provided updates to P|N|D Engineers, Inc. (PND) and the City on the additional scope outlined in this amendment. This task covers the effort expended for monthly invoicing and project archiving. The previous proposal expected a 2-month duration but extended to a 4-month duration once permits were received. Overage: $575 Exhibit A-4AGENDA ITEM #7. b) P|N|D Engineers, Inc. | March 14, 2022 Page 2 File No. 0693-086-00 TASK 2 COORDINATION (City, USACE and Tribal) GeoEngineers supported the permit process by serving as the point of contact (agent) on behalf of the City. This included coordination with the USACE and NMFS on results from the RAP calculator as well as review of the Planting/Mitigation Plan. Additionally, this effort includes time needed to resolve final timing questions and permit conditions related to contract execution with the USACE. This time, required to coordinate the regulatory requests and City review, exceeded our previous estimate due to the prolonged duration of negotiations and additional review of permit conditions once the permit was issued. Overage: $825 TASK 3 PERMITTING SUPPORT GeoEngineers provided continued assistance to finalize permit documentation (NMFS and USACE) and submittals. Overages incurred were a result of an unanticipated level of effort from multiple iterations of the RAP calculator as NMFS evaluated the project inputs into the calculator. The Project was not an anticipated project type for the architecture of the RAP process. This resulted in additional level of detail and justification for documenting our inputs into the calculator as required by NMFS. This resulted in several iterations of the RAP calculator and a formal rationale document that were not scoped in the previous amendment. Overage: $1,200 ASSUMPTIONS Below is a list of assumptions. Changes to the project that affect these assumptions will require a contract amendment to address additional level of effort and budget. ■ We assume no further effort is required for permitting this project as all permits that GeoEngineers was involved in attaining have been acquired. ■ No performance monitoring or construction oversight is included in this or previous scoping efforts. ■ We assume continued work for this project will be negotiated as part of a new contract or an amendment to this contract. FEE ESTIMATE, TERMS AND SCHEDULE The estimated fee to cover project effort above previously authorized limits will be billed on a time-and- material basis using rates established in our agreement signed February 20, 2020. The total fees for the budget overage described above (Tasks 1 through 3) based on the assumptions also described above is $2,600 bringing the total authorized to $58,400. We are in a position to submit our final invoice after receiving your authorization to increase our budget as described above. Our services were completed in accordance with the terms described in Master Services Agreement dated September 11, 2019.

From:Colin Kuester To:Betsy Severtsen; Alan Wyatt Cc:Jon Keiser Subject:PND Rate Increase Date:Monday, March 14, 2022 6:21:11 PM Betsy, Alan, As you have noted, PND has instituted rate increases for 2022 and we wish to implement those for new work scope items moving forward. These increases have been included in the proposal for Construction Administration services, Amendment 4, sent separately. These rate increases reflect the real costs of doing business and do not represent a change to increase the profit that PND makes as a percentage of billing rates. Among the expenses that the new billing rates reflect are: 1. Inflation/cost of living increases reflected in employee wages and benefits 2. Federal, state, and local taxes, fees, and especially cost of regulatory compliance 3. Insurance costs, both corporate professional and liability, as well as employee health benefits 4. Employee retention in a competitive labor market I hope this helps you and the City understand. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Thank you.
