D. CONSULTANT SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH VANIR
CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT INC.
The Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) Board was requested
to review and approve a $125,000 Consultant Services Agreement
with Vanir Construction Management Inc. (i.e., Vanir) to:
1) Undertake a thorough review and analysis of the draft Rosemead
Boulevard Safety Enhancements and Beautification Project; and
2) Provide the CRA with an implementation plan that takes into
consideration a redesign of the currently proposed utilitarian
improvements to the Rosemead Boulevard Safety Enhancements
and Beautification Project, which will partially take place within the
Rosemead Boulevard Redevelopment Project Area.
Mr. Blum stated that the Rosemead Boulevard Improvement Project
Ad Hoc Committee, consisting of himself and Mr. Yu, have been going
through the process of selecting a firm to perform the project
management and get through the design phase and then finally the
construction phase. The Committee has selected the firm and is ready
to start that process. The amount of $125,000 is to get through the
initial phases and then an agreement amendment will be needed to
undertake the remaining phases.
Executive Director Pulido stated a couple of years ago, the design for
Rosemead Boulevard was very utilitarian and did not maximize our
large potential investment. Through this contract we will have a
construction management firm to evaluate the project and make sure
the areas along Rosemead Boulevard actually get the proper
enhancements. This requires some analysis that we do not have the
staff or resources to do.
In response to Vice Chairman Chavez. he stated it is too early to tell
what the later phases will cost. This project will be phased in over time
and the numbers will probably change, depending on the project
budget. The Agency is asked to take on Phase 1, which is the re-

design, and then to take on the some of the tasks of Phase 2, which
gets us to the bidding process. Then, from that point forward an
amendment to the agreement would be needed if you wanted to
continue with Vanir to do the construction management. This is being
presented to the Agency to take a second look at the project.
Vice Chairman Chavez said he felt this was an opportunity to not do
what we did on Las Tunas, and that is to create a race track. He liked
the idea of looking to see what we can do to slow traffic down and
accommodate drawing businesses in.
Mr. Blum moved to:
1) Approve a $125,000 Consultant Services Agreement with Vanir
Construction Management Inc. to provide the GRA with a redesign
implementation plan for the Rosemead Boulevard Safety
Enhancements and Beautification Project;
2) Approve a budget amendment to appropriate $125,000 from the FY
2010-11 Agency Budget; and
3) Authorize the Executive Director to finalize and execute the
Consultant Services Agreement with Vanir Construction
Management Inc.,
