. Agenda Item B.4 CONSENT CALENDAR Meeting Date: December 17, 2013 TO: FROM: CONTACT: SUBJECT Mayor and Councilmembers Steve Wagner, Public Works Director Rosemarie Gaglione, Assistant City Engineer Traffic Modeling Services Contract with Kittelson and Associates RECOMMENDATION: A. Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No.1 to Agreement No. 2013-001 for Professional On Call Traffic Demand Modeling Services with Kittelson and Associates to provide for additional compensation in the amount of 140,000 for a new total not to exceed amount of $275,000 and to extend the term for twelve (12) months. B. Approve a budget adjustment in the amount of $40,000 to fund 101-5-5500-500. BACKGROUND: On December 4, 2012 the City awarded a consultant services agreement to Kittelson and Associates, Inc. (Kittelson) to perform traffic modeling services. That agreement was awarded based on a formal Request for Qualifications/Statement of Qualifications process. The agreement allows for extensions by amendment upon mutual agreement. This contract is set to expire on December 31, 2013. An amendment is required to continue using Kittelson for traffic modeling services. DISCUSSION: Kittelson provides on-call traffic demand modeling services, including private traffic impact project alternatives analyses, model forecasts, transportation engineering and planning. They also provide traffic modeling services for projects such as the Ekwill/Fowler Street Extension, the Hollister Avenue Redesign, and the City of Goleta General Plan updates analyses as required. Kittelson is in the process of performing a model update or calibration of the transportation model used for the above analyses. In order to continue to have Kittelson continue to provide traffic modeling support, an amendment to the contract is necessary.
Meeting Date: December 17, 2013 The extensive analysis of the Hollister Two Lane option earlier this year was not budgeted. The $16,000 in general fund monies used for this effort were originally budgeted for modeling efforts for potential development issues, preliminary engineering for projects and unplanned analysis requirements. There is approximately $15,000 remaining in account 101-5-5500-500 to cover that expense. Staff estimates that another $35,000 will be required to fully model the Hollister Two Lane alternative, according to the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 2010 version. ALTERNATIVES: The City Council may elect not to approve this amendment 1 for traffic modeling services and may direct staff to begin a new RFQ process. Doing so could cause delays in the timing of some of the City s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects and hamper the ability to respond quickly to requests to analyze impacts from private development projects. FISCAL IMPACTS: The adopted FY 13/14 Budget includes sufficient funds to cover this contract. The General Fund portion of this contract is $15,000 and is budgeted under 101-5-5500-500. The GTIP portion of the contract is $60,000 and there is sufficient budget for this effort. The remaining contract balance will be charged as required to specific CIP project funds and developer deposit accounts.
