project staff will be available to complete further field staking for an additional fee based on submitted hourly rates. It is assumed that no easement staking will be required unless property research is added to project scope to confirm the actual locations. We will provide on-site construction observation throughout the project. Our scope of services assumes construction will take approximately 12 weeks, based on discussions with city staff. It is expected that full- time observation (45 hours per week on average) will be needed during construction to complete inspection tasks and resident coordination on this project. These are based on the minimum amount of time and effort to inspect work throughout the construction season. The hours do not account for items outside of Bolton & Menk’s control and it is possible that a higher level of service will be needed at times. If the hours and/or duration need to increase from the provided construction schedule estimate, with the approval from the city, Bolton & Menk can provide that level of service for the additional hours needed at the hourly rate provided in our Summary of Fees table. A recent survey asked Bolton & Menk clients to rate us on a scale of 1-10 on our ability to meet a project budget and a project design schedule. They gave us an average of 9.3 on our ability to meet a budget and 9.5 on our ability to meet a design schedule. Bolton & Menk’s construction observer will observe the work performed by the contractor per the project plans and specifications, make notations for as-built purposes where acceptable deviations are made by the contractor, and produce the required documentation for this locally funded project. This individual will also handle communication and questions from residents, and they will relay information between the contractor and the city as necessary. The observer will also coordinate construction materials testing with a testing agency to be provided by the city; construction materials testing is not included in our proposal and/or fees. The construction observer will be available via phone, email, and text to respond to residents’ needs throughout construction. Our project team will provide updates and notices as necessary for water shutdowns and access restrictions, making sure residents have access when possible and when needed. We will also respond to commonly asked questions and requests during the construction process. Our project manager will provide oversight of our construction observer, administer the construction contract, and facilitate weekly construction meetings. It is anticipated that our project manager will spend approximately 10 hours per week over the estimated construction duration on construction administration responsibilities. They will conduct weekly construction meetings with the contractor, prepare progress payments monthly, and prepare change order documents as necessary. TASK 11: PROJECT CLOSEOUT Work under this task includes completing a review of the project site with the city and the contractor. We will walk the site with project stakeholders and identify any punch list items that need to be addressed. We will provide a copy of the punch list from the walk-through and review the items in coordination with the construction observer. Bolton & Menk will survey the final improvements and prepare record drawings to deliver to the city for the project. The as-builts will be in electronic PDF format, including redlined elevations and changes made during the construction process and documented by the construction observer during their observation duties or received separately from the city’s contractor. The as-built survey will verify structure installations for horizontal location, rim elevation, and inverts of fully replaced structures (storm CBs/MHs and hydrants). All other utilities remaining in place, including those identified for casting replacement or adjustment, will not be collected as part of the as-built survey. 15 2026 PMP STREET AND UTILITY IMPROVEMENTS | CITY OF ARDEN HILLSWorK Plan and Project aPProach EXHIBIT A
