Page 2 of 5 6. Authorize the City Manager to enter into a professional services agreement with Geocon Consultants, Inc. for the not-to-exceed amount of $124,260 for material testing services. 7. Authorize the transfer of $377,694 of Fund 211 from Dougherty Valley Mitigation Reserve, CIP No. 02523, to the Hopyard Road and Owens Drive Intersection Improvements Project, CIP No. 15525. BACKGROUND The 2005 – 2025 Pleasanton General Plan Circulation Element and Traffic Impact Fee Study identified the need to add a dedicated right-turn lane from southbound Hopyard Road to westbound Owens Drive. Currently, during peak hours, the right southbound lane on Hopyard Road backs up into the I-580 eastbound off-ramp. This is due to the right lane currently being a combined through/right-turn lane. If the light is red at the intersection of Hopyard Road and Owens Drive and a vehicle is proceeding southbound, it blocks all the vehicles waiting to turn right, and congestion occurs. The Chick-fil-A development was conditioned to dedicate to the City the right-of-way needed to install the right turn lane as described in the General Plan. To provide the necessary room to construct the right-turn lane, the new right-of-way boundary is within four feet of the existing building at 6111 Johnson Court. On August 15, 2017, the City Council approved a professional services agreement in the not- to-exceed amount of $158,928 with Quincy Engineering (now Consor North America, Inc.) for the design of the Hopyard Road and Owens Drive Intersection Improvements Project for the installation of a right-turn lane. The original scope was expanded to implement Caltrans' requirement to add buffered bike lanes through the intersection, which required the entire intersection to be reconstructed. The project’s preliminary design was initiated under the City’s on-call agreement with Consor North America, Inc. (Consor) for $16,700. Additional on-call services were provided by Keir + Wright (survey and right-of-way certificate for $33,824) and Pakpour Consulting (plan review for $6,265). On October 6, 2020, the City Council approved the first amendment to the professional services agreement with Consor in the not-to-exceed amount of $99,430 to complete the redesign to accommodate the buffered bike lanes required by Caltrans and to prepare biddable construction documents (for a total not-to-exceed amount of $258,358). On December 6, 2021, a second amendment to the agreement with Consor was completed, extending the term to June 30, 2023. The third amendment extended the term of the contract to December 31, 2024; this extension was due to delays associated with Caltrans reviews. On May 16, 2022, the City Council approved a project-specific maintenance agreement between the City and Caltrans for the Hopyard Road and I-580 bridge overcrossing as part of the Hopyard Road and Owens Drive Intersection Improvements Project, CIP No. 15525. An updated maintenance agreement was required to replace earlier agreements and clarify the responsibilities of both the State and the City regarding the roadway, soundwall, bike path, and bridge overcrossing. DISCUSSION This project consists of constructing a southbound right-turn lane along Hopyard Road at the DocuSign Envelope ID: 4F87FD3C-C94B-445D-A7F7-B9041B616CE0
