October 31 , 2024 Sarah Hosterman Landscape Architect Assistant City of Pleasanton 200 Old Bernal Avenue, P.O. Box 520 Pleasanton, CA 94566 Subject: Proposal to Finalize the Tree Preservation Update and Urban Forest Master Plan Public Draft Dear Sarah: In recent discussions with City staff, the City requested the final updates to the Tree Preservation Ordinance and a restructuring of the UFMP with a different canopy cover goal. Dudek staff previously delivered a draft of the Ordinance update that had already gone through several revisions before it was presented before City Council. The Council rejected the initial draft and created a new ordinance subcommittee to provide further review and comments on the ordinance update. Several new sections including a Special Condition Permit section were requested to be added to the updated ordinance by the subcommittee, as well as an ordinance impact analysis, leading to Dudek spending staff hours beyond the original scope of the project. For the UFMP, the recent change in canopy cover goal from 30% city-wide to 25% for all neighborhoods and document restructuring requested from the City has resulted in extra staff time needed to recreate several figures, maps, and narratives, and incorporate these new changes into the UFMP Public Draft. This proposal includes additional hours for Dudek staff to complete the remaining updates requested for the Ordinance Update and Public Draft of the UFMP. Thank you for the opportunity to submit this proposal. Scope of Services TASK 1 TREE ORDINANCE UPDATE FINALZIATION The Dudek Project Manager will incorporate the final additions and changes into the Pleasanton Tree Preservation Ordinance requested by the Subcommittee and City staff. The Practice Lead will review the final ordinance update before the Project Manager sends one redlined version and one clean version of the updated Ordinance to City staff. Dudek will also revise and submit the Ordinance Update Changes Summary document for City staff after the Ordinance update has been finalized. TASK 2 UFMP PUBLIC DRAFT FINALIZATION Dudek’s Data Analyst will produce new tables and figures associated with the City’s new canopy cover goal of bringing all neighborhoods within Pleasanton to 25% canopy cover. The previous goal was 30% city-wide canopy cover. The Data Analyst will also determine the number of vacant tree sites within these neighborhoods that currently have less than 25% canopy cover which will then be used by the Urban Forestry Analyst to update the urban forest management scenario and budget model. The Analyst will update the narrative for the new budget model with review from the Project Manager. The Dudek Creative Services staff will create a Docusign Envelope ID: 0CB9EADE-E7CC-4883-BB19-34FD00D299F4Docusign Envelope ID: 1CD21189-0F16-42AD-B5BE-1FA280845833
