This letter, which was originally submitted to the City on September 27, has been modified to reflect our subsequent discussions about the scope of work and subsequent refinements to the description of the project. This letter describes our understanding of the project, outlines our proposed approach to the analysis and scope of services, and presents estimates of the budget and schedule requirements. Our qualifications -brief descriptions of relevant prior work, resumes for staff members who would be assigned to the project, and references -are appended to this letter. We have also enclosed two samples of our work in fiscal analysis (bound in a single volume). ^ The first is our fiscal analysis of a proposed destination resort project in Cloverdale, CA. We have included both the draft and final reports, as the project definition changed substantially between the time the two documents were prepared, and the draft report includes a greater variety of uses that were to be developed over a greater number of phases. This project does not represent our most complex fiscal analysis, but we believe it posed a similar set of issues -mix of uses in an area to be annexed to the City, variety of factors that could influence the fiscal impacts of the project - to those raised by the Staples Ranch project. ^ The second example is the report on our fiscal analysis of General Plan alternatives in Emery- ville, CA. We have included it because it contains illustrations of the type we now commonly use. UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROJECT Development of the Staples Ranch The City of Pleasanton and the County of Alameda Surplus Land Authority have signed a memo- randum of understanding (MOU) that anticipates the development of Staples Ranch within the City of Pleasanton. The Ranch, which encompasses approximately 124 acres of land, is located primarily in an unincorporated area between the cities of Pleasanton and Livermore. If the City amends the Stoneridge Drive Specific Plan to accommodate the set of land uses identified in the MOU and both sides meet other requirements set out in the MOU, the Ranch would be annexed to the City of Pleasanton and development could occur. }2obertalbtundie, Presiclt•nt Suzanne Lampert, Vice Pre;ir7ent roLenn. mu ndie(anwnd ie.com ;uza n ne.4unp~ rrC~mu nd ir.~°om
