AGENDA ITEM ?.E. SUBJECT: SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE CONSULTANT S RVICES AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF TEMPLE CITY AND ADVANCED AVANT-GARDE CORPORATION FOR THE ROSEMEAD BOULEVARD SAFETY ENHANCEMENT & BEAUTIFICATION PROJECT RECOMMENDATION: The City Council is recommended to approve a Second Amendment to the Consultant Services Agreement Between the City of Temple City and Advanced Avant-Garde Corporation (Avant Garde) (Attachment "A") in the amount of $14,950 to provide labor compliance services for the Rosemead Boulevard Safety Enhancement and Beautification Project. BACKGROUND: 1. On November 1, 2011, the City Council approved the Consultant Services Agreement with Avant-Garde (Attachment "B") in the amount of $160,000 to provide fund management/labor compliance services for the Rosemead Boulevard Safety Enhancement and Beautification Project. 2. On March 6, 2012, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 12-4802 to approve the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Rosemead Boulevard Safety Enhancement and Beautification Project and authorized the City Manager to release the plans and specifications for bid upon receipt of Caltrans E-76 authorization. 3. On March 26, 2012, project staff submitted the Request for Authorization to Proceed with Construction. This authorization (E-76) must be granted and secured prior to the solicitation of bids for the project. City Council March 4, 2014 Page 2 of 3 4. On June 1, 2012, the budget for the preconstruction phase (i.e. Rosemead Blvd. Safety Enhancement and Beautification Project) of Avant-Garde's work was exhausted. 5. On July 17, 2012, the City Council approved a First Amendment to the Consultant Services Agreement with Avant Garde (Attachment "C"), authorizing $16,500 to be used by Avant Garde for the remainder of preconstruction activities for the Rosemead Blvd. Safety Enhancement and Beautification Project. 6. On January 24, 2013, construction began on the Rosemead Boulevard Safety Enhancement and Beautification Project and Avant Garde subsequently commenced their labor compliance activities. 7. On December 23, 2013, Avant Garde submitted a formal letter to the City stating that they had exhausted most of their budget for the labor compliance portion of their work and that they had exceeded the amount of hours allocated. They requested an additional allocation of 190 hours and $14,950 to carry out their work until the completion of the project and project close out activities. ANALYSIS: The Rosemead Boulevard Safety Enhancement and Beautification Project currently has $4.3 million of federal funds allocated to it. The federal funds are required to be managed in accordance with the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual and on- going compliance with the Davis Bacon Act, a federal law which requires laborers and mechanics working on federally-funded or assisted public works projects to be paid the local prevailing wage. This includes a review of weekly submitted certified payrolls for the prime contractor and all sub-contractors to ensure compliance. In addition, field interviews must be conducted to confirm worker classification trades. The City has retained Avant Garde for the completion of these important tasks. On December 23, 2013, Avant Garde reported that they have exceeded the 350 hours allocated for labor compliance services and have exhausted most of their budget of $30,724, as included in their original contract. This budget was based on a rough estimate of the project duration and anticipated construction trades. Avant Garde has stated that they had not originally anticipated that Caltrans would require them to review all of the 11 sub-contractors payroll certificates. In order to ensure that there are enough funds available to cover the compliance work required for the project, Avant Garde is requesting an additional 190 work hours until completion of the project, including project close out activities. A total of 20 hours will be allocated for the project manager (i.e., 20 hours @ $110 = $2,200) and 170 hours will be allocated for project coordinator (i.e., 170 hours @ $75 = $12,750). The total additional budget included in this proposed Second Amendment is $14,950. City Council March 4, 2014 Page 3 of 3 CONCLUSION: Approval of this Second Amendment to the Consultant Services Agreement between the City of Temple City and Advanced Avant-Garde Corporation, in the amount of $14,950, will allow Avant-Garde to complete the work included in their contract with the City and comply with the Davis Bacon Act. FISCAL IMPACT: The costs associated with approval of this Second Amendment to the Consultant Services Agreement with Advanced Avant-Garde Corporation is within the allocated budget for the Rosemead Blvd Safety Enhancement and Beautification Project (Attachment "D").

LissetteLCalleros, Vice-President RlV -#4846-@1 :\·5176 vi -4- AVANT GARDE To: Sha Jarrahi, Project Director (VANIR) From: Lissette Calleros, Vice President Date: July 3, 2012 -Revised Attachment A.1 R e: City of Temple City-Rosemead Boulevard Beautification Project-Request for Approval of Additional Work No. 1 Avant-Garde has had the great pleasure of providing quality program management services for the Rosemead Boulevard Beautification Project. A recent review of our scope of work including timelines previously outlined has prompted us to take another look at the contractual agreement, services provided, and revised project schedule in order to effectively deliver this very important project. On November 1, 2011, the City approved a fee of $160,000 for Avant-Garde to provide funding administration and labor compliance services in three phases, pre-construction with an estimated duration period of 9 months, construction wlth an estimated duration period of 18 months and lastly post-construction with an estimated duration period of 2 months. Currently we have exhausted our budget in the pre-construction phase. Our budget for the pre-construction phase was designated at $51,006. We have spent a lot of extra time coordinating submittals and re-submittals to Caltrans that we originally did not anticipate time for. This extra time is in response to changes to the plans and project conditions that were initiated by the project team and required that the submittals be revised base on the changes. After discussions with Vanir Construction Management, Avant-Garde has agreed to the following: 1. Environmental Clearance: On 4/16/12 Caltrans required a resubmitted package as Caltrans requested that we revise the federal project numbers and combine into one project. This required programming changes with Metro in addition to coordination with Caltrans for processing of the revised environmental clearance document. (Request from Caltrans attached) Additional time spent 25 hours: PM 10 hours @$110, PC 15 hours@ $75 = $2,225 No Extra Cost to the City 2. Right of Way Clearance: On 2/4/12 we resubmitted for the second time in order to revise the amount of easements the designers had designated for the project. This included removal of the private properties on the north side of the project. On 3/29/12 we revised the package for the third time in order to revise the submittal to remove all of the easements and right-of-way notations designated by the design engineers.
