Dear Jim: Attached is our revised scope of work and'cost estimate in response to County and TVPOA comments. The primary changes are reflected in the EPS and Barton-Aschman scopes. We have eliminated Brown and Caldwell since DSRSD will.be conducting their own Plan of Services study. We have allocated time to review this. report as.well as contact the other service agencies. The traffic analysis will be conducted at a general plan level and does not include project-specific . analyses. As requested by TVPOA;the traffic scope includes an additional buildout scenario based upon the market demand. It isunderstood that TVPOA will provide the market data which will be reviewed. . . by EPS prior to Barton-Aschman integrating this information in their model. The traffic analysis also assumes that the aggregation of traffic zones will be prepared under a separate scope of work and will be available for this EIR early in the EIR process. We have eliminated the cost for the mitigation monitoring program and printing of the DEIR and Final EIR. - We have, I believe, set out a realistic schedule to prepare the EIR.. However; it is imperative that'.in order to maintain this time table, the studies.being prepared outside the scope of the EIR are received in timely fashion as indicated in our attached-weekly schedule. I trust that these changes.in.our.proposal reflect staff's concerns and we can proceed with finalizing the contract. If you wishtodiscussthe scope or cost estimate, please give me a:call. Sincerely, Carolyn Mills. - Principal Attachment
