Mr. Swearingen | Arden Oaks Street Improvements <br />Proposal for Engineering Services <br />September 2, 2021 <br />Page 6 <br /> <br /> <br />IV. CITY RESPONSIBILITIES <br />These responsibilities shall be as set forth in Article 8 of the General Provisions and as further described or clarified <br />herein below: <br />A. Designate one individual to act as a representative with respect to the work to be performed, and such <br />person shall have complete authority to transmit instructions, receive information, interpret and define <br />policies, and make decisions with respect to critical elements pertinent to the Project. This individual shall <br />be identified in the signature block area of this Proposal. <br />B. Provide TKDA with access to the site as required to perform services listed in SECTION III. <br />C. Provide reviews of materials furnished by TKDA in a reasonable and prompt manner so that the Project <br />schedule can be maintained. <br />D. Mail materials to residents within the project area. TKDA will provide materials and mailing list. <br />V. ADDITIONAL SERVICES <br />If authorized in writing by the City, we will furnish or obtain from others Additional Services of the types listed below <br />which are not considered as basic services under this Proposal. Additional Services shall be billable on an Hourly <br />Time and Materials basis and such billings shall be over and above any maximum amounts set forth in this Proposal. <br />A. Right-of-way or easement acquisition is not expected for this project, but if certain right-of-way services are <br />needed TKDA can perform or facilitate this work as an additional service. <br />B. It is not expected wetland delineation will be needed. If wetland delineation or permits are needed, TKDA <br />will provide these as an additional service. <br />C. All work is assumed to be completed in 2021 and 2022. If work is performed into 2023 (other than the <br />warranty walkthrough and as-builts), TKDA will amend our unit rates and may need an amendment to avoid <br />exceeding the engineering budget. <br />VI. PERIOD OF SERVICE <br />We will expect to start our services promptly upon receipt of your written acceptance of this Proposal and to <br />complete SECTION III services within by July 31, 2023. As a part of the schedule, plans and specifications will be <br />completed by December 31, 2021 to allow for receipt of bids in February. Segments of the work plan will be <br />completed progressively to facilitate the Project Schedule. In response to the current public health restrictions, <br />TKDA is doing our part to keep projects on track by working remotely whenever possible and consulting with our <br />clients over video- or teleconference. TKDA will advise the CLIENT if circumstances develop beyond our control <br />that will impact the schedule outlined in this Proposal. <br />VII. COMPENSATION <br />Compensation to TKDA for services provided as described in SECTION III of this Proposal shall be on an Hourly <br />Time and Materials basis for a total not to exceed amount of $60,500. Our detailed Project Fee Estimate is attached. <br />Payment shall be made in accordance with Article 3 of the attached General Provisions. <br />The level of effort required to accomplish SECTION III services can be affected by factors which are beyond our <br />control. Therefore, if it appears at any time charges for services rendered under SECTION III will exceed the above, <br />we agree we will not perform services or incur costs which will result in billings in excess of such amount until we <br />have been advised by you that additional funds are available and our work can proceed. <br />VIII. CONTRACTUAL INTENT <br />We thank you for the opportunity to submit this Proposal. We agree that this letter and attachments constitute a <br />contract between us upon its signature by an authorized official of City of Arden Hills and the return of a signed <br />original to us. This Proposal will be open for acceptance for 60 days, unless the provisions herein are changed by <br />us in writing prior to that time. <br />
