COMMUNITY SERVICES
THIS AGREEMENT, dated April 23, 2018, is by and between the City of Renton (the "City"), a
Washington municipal corporation, and TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING NORTHWEST(TENW).
("Consultant"). The City and the Consultant are referred to collectively in this Agreement as the
"Parties." Once fully executed by the Parties, this Agreement is effective as of the last date
signed by both parties.
1. Scope of Work: Consultant agrees to provide TRANSPORTATION PLANNING AND
ENGINEERING SERVICES as specified in Exhibit "A", which is attached and incorporated
herein and may hereinafter be referred to as the "Work."
2. Changes in Scope of Work: The City, without invalidating this Agreement, may order
changes to the Work consisting of additions, deletions or modifications. Any such
changes to the Work shall be ordered by the City in writing and the Compensation shall
be equitably adjusted consistent with the rates set forth in Exhibit "A" or as otherwise
mutually agreed by the Parties.
3. Time of Performance: Consultant shall commence performance of the Agreement
pursuant to the schedule(s) set forth in Exhibit "A". All Work shall be performed by no
later than July 31, 2018.
4. Compensation:
A. Amount. Total compensation to Consultant for Work provided pursuant to this
Agreement shall not exceed $13,500.00, plus any applicable state and local sales
taxes. Compensation shall be paid as a flat rate fixed sum based upon Work actually
performed according to the rate(s) or amounts specified in Exhibit "A". The
Consultant agrees that any hourly or flat rate charged by it for its Work shall remain
locked at the negotiated rate(s) unless otherwise agreed to in writing or provided in
Exhibit "A". Except as specifically provided herein, the Consultant shall be solely
responsible for payment of any taxes imposed as a result of the performance and
payment of this Agreement.
B. Method of Payment. On a monthly or no less than quarterly basis during any quarter
in which Work is performed, the Consultant shall submit a voucher or invoice in a
form specified by the City, including a description of what Work has been
performed, the name of the personnel performing such Work, and any hourly labor
charge rate for such personnel. The Consultant shall also submit a final bill upon
completion of all Work. Payment shall be made by the City for Work performed
within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt and approval by the appropriate City
representative of the voucher or invoice. If the Consultant's performance does not
meet the requirements of this Agreement, the Consultant will correct or modify its
performance to comply with the Agreement. The City may withhold payment for
work that does not meet the requirements of this Agreement.
C. Effect of Payment. Payment for any part of the Work shall not constitute a waiver by
the City of any remedies it may have against the Consultant for failure of the
Consultant to perform the Work or for any breach of this Agreement by the
Consultant.
D. Non-Appropriation of Funds. If sufficient funds are not appropriated or allocated for
payment under this Agreement for any future fiscal period, the City shall not be
obligated to make payments for Work or amounts incurred after the end of the
current fiscal period, and this Agreement will terminate upon the completion of all
remaining Work for which funds are allocated. No penalty or expense shall accrue to
the City in the event this provision applies.
5. Termination:
A. The City reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without
cause by giving ten (10) calendar days' notice to the Consultant in writing. In the
event of such termination or suspension, all finished or unfinished documents, data,
studies, worksheets, models and reports, or other material prepared by the
Consultant pursuant to this Agreement shall be submitted to the City, if any are
required as part of the Work.
B. In the event this Agreement is terminated by the City, the Consultant shall be
entitled to payment for all hours worked to the effective date of termination, less all
payments previously made. If the Agreement is terminated by the City after partial
performance of Work for which the agreed compensation is a fixed fee, the City
shall pay the Consultant an equitable share of the fixed fee. This provision shall not
prevent the City from seeking any legal remedies it may have for the violation or
nonperformance of any of the provisions of this Agreement and such charges due to
the City shall be deducted from the final payment due the Consultant. No payment
shall be made by the City for any expenses incurred or work done following the
effective date of termination unless authorized in advance in writing by the City.

and Standard Plans for Road, Bridge and Municipal Construction). Professional
engineers shall certify engineering plans, specifications, plats, and reports, as applicable,
pursuant to RCW 18.43.070. Consultant further represents and warrants that all final
work product created for and delivered to the City pursuant to this Agreement shall be
the original work of the Consultant and free from any intellectual property
encumbrance which would restrict the City from using the work product. Consultant
grants to the City a non-exclusive, perpetual right and license to use, reproduce,
distribute, adapt, modify, and display all final work product produced pursuant to this
Agreement. The City's or other's adaptation, modification or use of the final work
products other than for the purposes of this Agreement shall be without liability to the
Consultant. The provisions of this section shall survive the expiration or termination of
this Agreement.
7. Record Maintenance: The Consultant shall maintain accounts and records, which
properly reflect all direct and indirect costs expended and Work provided in the

by applicable Washington State records retention laws, but in any event no less than six
years after the termination of this Agreement. The Consultant agrees to provide access
to and copies of any records related to this Agreement as required by the City to audit
expenditures and charges and/or to comply with the Washington State Public Records

this section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
9. Independent Contractor Relationship:
A. The Consultant is retained by the City only for the purposes and to the extent set

the City, elected officials, employees, officers, representatives, and volunteers from any
and all claims, demands, actions, suits, causes of action, arbitrations, mediations,
proceedings, judgments, awards, injuries, damages, liabilities, taxes, losses, fines, fees,
penalties, expenses, attorney's or attorneys' fees, costs, and/or litigation expenses to or
by any and all persons or entities, arising from, resulting from, or related to the
negligent acts, errors or omissions of the Consultant in its performance of this
Agreement or a breach of this Agreement by Consultant, except for that portion of the
claims caused by the City's sole negligence.

Insurance Act, RCW Title 51, solely for the purposes of this indemnification. The Parties
have mutually negotiated and agreed to this waiver. The provisions of this section shall
survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
11. Gifts and Conflicts: The City's Code of Ethics and Washington State law prohibit City
employees from soliciting, accepting, or receiving any gift, gratuity or favor from any
person, firm or corporation involved in a contract or transaction. To ensure compliance

Transportation Engineering Fee Proposal
Dear Russ:
Transportation Engineering Northwest (TENW) is pleased to present this scope of work and fee
proposal to provide transportation planning and engineering services for the proposed
—25,000(+/-) square-foot community center on 1161h Avenue SE in Renton, WA. The proposed
project would be developed within the existing campus of the Cascade Elementary School.
Based upon TENW's previous work in the City of Renton and the proposed project, the following
scope of work elements would likely be necessary to address agency concerns, outlining a general
scope of work and fee estimate in four main tasks.
Task 1. Traffic Counts/Field Work —TENW would perform AM/PM peak hour turning movement
counts at the existing site access intersections and off-site study intersections on 116th Avenue SE,
include SE 22nd Street, SE 160 Street, and SE Petrovitsky Road. In addition, field work to collect
roadway/intersection conditions, signal phasing, transit availability, and sight distance at the site
access locations are needed.
Estimated budget: $2,750.
Task 2. Traffic Impact Study — This task includes preparation of the formal traffic impact analysis.
An estimated fee has been identified for this task that is based upon the number of expected study
intersections and scope elements. The following outlines the study's basic elements.
Project Description/Identification
This section will describe the proposed project in detail to include project location, program
elements, proposed parking, proposed site access with an anticipated construction date/year of
opening.
Existing Conditions
This task includes a field review of site vicinity transportation conditions, a review of existing
planning documents, and data collection efforts with the City of Renton. In order to provide a basis
for evaluating transportation improvement recommendations and mitigation measures, we will
complete an inventory of the existing transportation system in the study area to include: key

Family First Community Center—TENW Proposal
Page 2
April 3, 2018
transportation facilities and corridors, intersection channelization and traffic control, weekday traffic
volumes, collision history, and planned transportation improvements.
Trip Generation, Distribution and Assignment
TENW will use the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual, 10th Edition,
2017, to estimate a.m. peak, p.m. peak and daily traffic volumes, which would be generated by
the proposed development. Trip distribution and assignment assumptions will be documented to
support our conclusions and findings that also include discounts for existing land uses.
Traffic Impact Analysis
Traffic impact issues to be analyzed include roadway and intersection traffic volume impacts, site
access and circulation issues, and analysis of parking, public transportation services, and
nonmotorized transportation impacts.
Roadway and Intersection Traffic Volume Impacts
The report will discuss potential turning movement conflicts with other vehicular traffic, evaluate
intersection levels of service and operating characteristics, and identify project impacts on nearby
significant intersections and roadways. Close coordination with the City of Renton and King
County will also include vicinity pipeline development project assumptions and buildout years, and
any future roadway transportation improvements that could have significant implications on our
study assumptions and conclusions.
Vehicular Site Access, Safely and Circulation Issues
TENW will review the site development plan and proposed site access locations onto adjacent
streets. The study will discuss potential turning movement conflicts with adjacent
driveways/intersections, driveway spacing, intersection sight distance, levels of service, vehicular
queues, and review warrants for traffic control treatments (left-or right-turn lanes, restricted right-turn
ingress/egress, etc.), and any other potential transportation improvements, which may be required.
This would also include review of internal site bus/parent drop-off and pick-up areas that may
require reconfiguration to allow for continued access of the new use during peak arrival/dismissal
periods.
Mitigation and Traffic Impact Fees
We will identify appropriate mitigation efforts resulting from the traffic impact analysis to make
certain that project driveways and nearby roadways and critical intersections operate in
conformance with affected City of Renton level of service standards. To mitigate impacts, TENW
will estimate any proportional share contributions or project-specific transportation improvements
and any traffic impact fees.
Estimated budget Task 2: $6,000.

Task 3. Parking Demand Study — This task includes preparation of the parking demand analysis.
TENW will evaluate the potential for parking impacts generated by your project based upon your
proposed supply and estimated demand using a combination of published ITE rates and an
activities-based approach. We will identify any deficiencies per City standards and perform a
shared parking analysis specific to your project to ensure the parking supply is adequate to meet
peak demands of the proposed facility that do not impact/coincide with the adjacent school.
Estimated budget Task 3: $2,500.
Task 5. Meetings —This task includes preparation and attendance at up to four meetings with City
staff, school district staff, project Team representatives or others. Up to 10 hours of principal labor
has been assumed for budgeting purposes.
Estimated budget Task 3: $2,250.
Proposal Summary
TENW will complete Task 1 within approximately 2 week from notice to proceed. A draft study
that incorporates all existing conditions information along with the analysis of traffic impacts
associated with the proposed action would be completed within approximately 2 weeks after
traffic counts are collected and field work is complete. It is estimated the total cost of our work
would not exceed $13,500. Thanks again for your interest in our firm. If you have any questions
or comments about our proposal, please do not hesitate to contact me at 1206) 361-7333 Ext.
