CITY COUNCIL STUDY S ESSION REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: Daniel Fox, City Manager
FROM: David Liu, Public Works Director/City Engineer
TITLE: DIAMOND BAR BLVD. COMPLETE STREETS PROJECT DESIGN
ALTERNATIVES
The Diamond Bar Blvd. Complete Streets Project (Project) further extends the Council’s
desire to implement prominent streetscape elements at major intersections, corridors
and entry points of the City. The Project is located along Diamond Bar Blvd. between
Golden Springs Drive and the SR 60 Freewa y. It will incorporate Complete Streets
elements that aid in enhancing pedestrian and bicycle features, Green Streets elements
that will aid in stormwater treatment, and Streetscape elements that will enhance the
overall aesthetic treatment of the corridor.
At the August 21, 2018 City Council meeting staff presented two conceptual alternatives
that have been developed for the Project.
Both conceptual alternatives incorporate key Streetscape, Green Streets, and Complete
Streets design elements such as:
Enhanced paver crosswalks at all intersection locations within the corridor
Streets trees with decorative steel tree grates and pavers
Concrete post and wood rails with landscape planters to create a buffer between
vehicular traffic and the parkway
Enhanced landscape medians with concrete post, wood rail and decorative steel
panels
Decorative traffic signal poles
Enhanced bicycle lanes
Stormwater treatment through bioswales
1
Packet Pg. 7
The major differences between the two alternatives are:
ALTERNATIVE 1 ALTERNATIVE 2
* 12' Parkway Width * 17' Parkway Width
* 5' Bike Lanes on Street Grade
*
5' Bike Lanes Separated from
Street
* 6' Sidewalks * 4' Sidewalks
*
Low Utility Impact
*
Moderate Utility Impact due to
relocation of curb and gutter
including relocation of street lights
*
No Significant Change to vehicle
behavior
(The total number of travel lanes remain
unchanged)
*
Tighter vehicle turns and reduced
speeds
(The total number of travel lanes will
remain unchanged)
* Maintain crosswalk length * Shorter crosswalk length
* $4.5 Million * $5 Million
Discussion by the Council largely centered around the differences between the two
alternatives with respect to the proposed improvements to the bike lane and the impacts
to the pedestrian path of travel.
Alternative 1
For Alternative 1, the 5 foot bike lane is being proposed to remain on grade with
vehicular traffic and will be enhanced with colored asphalt. The pedestrian path of
travel (sidewalk) will be 6 feet wide with a 6’ planter/swale separating the pedestrians
from both vehicular and bicycle traffic.
1
Packet Pg. 8
Existing sidewalks on arterial raodways elsewhere in the City are anywhere from 4 to 10
feet wide. Along Diamond Bar Blvd. at Grand Avenue where streetscape improvements
have been installed, the pedestrian path of travel is 5.5 feet wide with a 2.5 foot wide
curb adjacent planter and a post and rail that requires an additional 14 inches of width.
The pedestiran path of travel along Brea Canyon Road adjacent to Diamond Canyon
Park is 4 feet 4 inches wide with a 2 foot curb adjacent planter and a post and rail that
requires an additional 14 inches of width . The pedestrian path of travel proposed along
Golden Springs Drive and Grand Avenue for the streetscape enchancements project
will be 5-6 feet wide with a 2-3 foot wide curb adjacent planter and post and rail.

Path of Travel

Packet Pg. 9
Diamond Bar Blvd.
The colored bike lane enhancement is slowly being implemented in other neighboring
local jurisdictions including Chino Hills with red colored asphalt and Claremont with
green colored asphalt. A common complaint regarding the colored asphalt bike lanes is
with respect to maintenance. Tire marks from both vehicles and bicycles are more
prominent requiring constant repainting.
Pedestrian
Path of Travel
~5’6” wide

Packet Pg. 10

Alternative 2
For Alternative 2, the 5 foot bike lane is being proposed to be relocated to the same
1
Packet Pg. 11
grade as the pedestrian path of travel and will be separated from vehicular traffic by a 4
foot swale (planter) and separated from pedestrians by a 4 foot planter area. The
pedestrian path of travel (sidewalk) will be 4 feet wide which is a comparable width to
the pedestrian path of travel at Brea Canyon Road along the frontage of Diamond
Canyon Park with the enhanced streetscape elements.
Alternative 2 with the separated bike lane is a newer type of roadway enhacement that
hasn’t been implemented widespread but projects within the San Gabriel Valley are
slowly creating similar bike lanes in an effort to incorpo rate Complete Streets objectives
into their roadway systems.
1
Packet Pg. 12
The City incoporated a similar multi-use path along Brea Canyon Road south of
Fountain Springs Drive to the southerly City Limit on the east side of the roadway where
the pedestrian path of travel and bike lane are on the same grade with the bike lane
destinguished with colored concrete. The pedestrian path of travel is 5 feet wide and
the bike lane is 6 feet wide.
Brea Canyon Road Multi Use Path

Packet Pg. 13
Temple City has incorporated a separated bike lane along Rosemead Blvd. where a
swale (planter) separates the bike lane from vehicular traffic but the bike lane remains
on the same grade as vechular traffic. This is commonly re ferred to as a Class IV
bikeway and is being considered in the updated General Plan Circulation Element.
Rosemead Blvd.
Finally, Alternative 2 will require the street lights to be relocated that may create
significant time impacts to the construction schedule by Edison. Additional pedestrian
lighting may be necessary to properly illuminate the pathway for both pedestrians and
bicyclists creating a potential cost increase of up to $200,000 dependng on the design
which is included in the preliminary cost estimate of $5 million for Alternative 2.
Funding Update
The Diamond Bar Blvd. Complete Streets Project has been listed on the San Gabriel
Valley Council of Governments Measure M Multi-year Subregional Program Funding
project list and will be reviewed by the Governing Board in November. Fifty-four
projects were submitted and sixteen are recommended for funding. The Diamond Bar
Complete Streets Project is recommended for $3 million in funding.
Additionally, staff submitted an Active Trasnportation Pr ogram Cycle 4 Grant application
for the Golden Springs Drive Mobility Improvements Project. The project will include the
intersection of Diamond Bar Blvd. and Golden Springs Drive. The grant request for this
proejct was $1,908,000 for three interesections.

C) APPROVE AND AUTHORIZE THE MAYOR TO SIGN, THE FIRST
AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT WITH THE SAN GABRIEL
VALLEY COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS TO INCREASE THE NOT -
TO-EXCEED AMOUNT TO $165,000.
C/Lyons asked for reassurance that future groundwater drainage projects would
continue to be funded.
CM/Fox stated that that was correct. The savings staff proposes to transfer to
this project is a result of the amount saved from two recent storm drain projects
that came in under budget. The additional projects in the CIP are separate line
items and will continue to be funded.
C/Lin asked why $165,000 was being appropriated when the amendment is for
$125,000.
CM/Fox responded that the total contract is for $165,000 and the amendment
adds $125,000 for the paving. The current $40,000 contract for the Lemon
Avenue Interchange project is for a variety of landscape enhancements, traffic
signal modifications, traffic signage and striping under the City’s responsibility.
The contract is being amended from $40,000 to $165,000 for a net increase of
$125,000.
C/Lin asked if the 1 ½ acres of land that was vacated on the McDonald’s site for
the on and off ramps would be deeded back to the City of Diamond Bar once the
ramps are closed.
CM/Fox responded that staff has indicated an interest in having “first right -of-
refusal” over that property if and when the State goes through the vacation
process.
C/Lin felt the property would be a perfect location for a public arts display.
C/Lyons moved, MPT/Herrera seconded, to approve Item 6.4 as stated. Motion
carried by the following Roll Call vote:

OCTOBER 2, 2018 PAGE 5 CITY COUNCIL
CM/Fox said that in response to MPT/Herrera’s request staff is providing
and update on the new development and existing programs and
businesses in the City. There has been a lot of interest in the new Sprouts
Center (former Kmart site) which in the past year has opened Sprouts,
Coffee Bean Tea Leaf, Chipotle and Ross with The Habit Burger Grill
being under construction with an opening estimated close to the end of
2018/early 2019. The Charles Company, owner of the center, has been
actively marketing the property to fill remaining vacancies a nd continues to
have interest in acquiring a variety of businesses including banks, nail
salons, restaurants and other retailers. Staff continues to work with the
Charles Company on a regular basis and hopes to, in the very near future,
share good news with respect to additional tenants. McDonald’s is
located in the Center but under separate ownership and recently made a
major investment in the rehabilitation of their store and remodeling of the
façade and drive-through lane at Diamond Bar Boulevard and Gentle
Springs Drive.
The Walnut Pool site located on Golden Springs Drive near the Caltrans
facility and the SR57/60 overpass was remodeled last year and is in the
process of leasing a new 8500 square foot office complex. There has
been a lot of interest in Big Lots; however, CM/Fox believes the owner has
some unrealistic expectations on price. Staff has presented him with a
number of national retail tenants who have not been able to reach
agreement on business terms. They are currently looking to remodel the
building to be split up into smaller commercial spaces they feel would
garner them more suitable rents that would meet their financial business
model.
The Hampton Inn Suites is moving forward with their entitlements,
currently in the environmental review and traffic analysis stage, for the
Brea Canyon Road trailer storage site. The project is for 109 hotel rooms
which will serve as a significant investment in that portion of the
community and clean up some unsightly conditions. There are
approximately 48,000 square feet of professional office and medical space
and about 9,500 square feet of retail and restaurant uses that will be
bundled on the site with the hotel. This project should be moving through
the Planning Commission and City Council process in early 2019.
In the Gateway Corporate Center, the Holiday Inn just spent $12 million on
renovating their hotel which was a private investment in the community.
The new DB Grill and Lounge, the restaurant inside the hotel, is open . In
addition, they are restaurant week participants. This serves as another
indication that there is a real investment/reinvestment in Diamond Bar
which is encouraged.
Niagara Water will be moving their headquarters from Ontario to Diamond

Bar into a 30,000 square foot office building purchased in the Corporate
Center. It is anticipated they will begin Tenant Improvements this fall and
be ready to occupy the site in early 2019 with approximately 700
employees. This supports the notion that the City is able to market itself
as a corporate center/daytime destination with current large employers
such as AQMD, Niagara, Allstate and other businesses.
Some of the current programs include: A City Council Economic
Development Committee consisting of Councilmembers Lyons and
Herrera meets quarterly with staff to provide updates and to discuss
different programs and initiatives that are ultimately brought to the City
Council as deemed appropriate. Restaurant Week which kicks off this
Friday, October 5th and runs through October 21st is probably the City’s
most visible program and a great way to celebrate and bring the
community together. Last year the City began partnering with SCORE, a
non-profit business resource organization of thousands of volunteer
business counselors who are former CEO’s of Fortune 500 companies
who volunteer their time to teach people how to run a business and
mentor aspiring entrepreneurs and business owners. The City hosts
workshops at the Diamond Bar Center and have one -on-one mentoring
sessions at no cost that are hosted at City Hall by appointment.
The General Plan Update will include a new Economic Development
Element which is not a requirement by the State but something the City
chose to create because of the importance of economic development in
the community. This element will respond to public interest in creating a
town center and will include town center areas and focuses and include
policies that will encourage that type of growth and vision for the future as
well as, policies for new and existing businesses.
Other organizations and resources include continuing participation with
the Regional Chamber of Commerce to sponsor and support local and
regional events including Restaurant Week as well as, the San Gabriel
Economic Partnership who advocate for industry and business as well as,
offer support for things such as the SR57/60 Confluence Project and
advocate for funding at the state, local and federal level. When this
infrastructure is completed, it will help to attract new businesses and
residents who want to be in this area. Diamond Bar actively participates in
the International Council of Shopping Centers to market its available sites
and facilitate communications between property owners and potential
tenants.
In addition, the City takes advantage of a variety of other professional
resources and services related to financial and others who perform
analysis of projects including Keyser Marston Associates. Kosmot
Companies has helped and continues to help the City secu re hotel sites,
infrastructure financing options and other real estate services. H dL

Company provides the City’s property tax estimates, sales tax estimates
and has been instrumental on the retail side of securing some of the more
recent transactions including Smart & Final, Waba Grill, Sprouts, Ross,
Chipotle and everything having to do with the Charles Company. HdL has
also helped the City prepare an Economic Development Action Plan that
was approved by the City Council last October which provides the
roadmap where the City identified seven different areas of the community,
each with a separate market and demographics.
MPT/Herrera thanked CM/Fox for his very comprehensive overview of all
of the different things Diamond Bar has been doing over the past many
years, particularly at the ICSC where staff and Council Members take
brochures about each shopping center to show the schematics of the
center and where the vacancies are and how many square feet of space is
available which are handed out to businesses that residents would like to
have come to Diamond Bar. MPT/Herrera asked CM/Fox who makes the
final decision about whether a business comes or does not come to this
City?
CM/Fox said that ultimately, it is a business decision between the property
owner and the prospective tenant. Diamond Bar staff and Council can
facilitate the communications, impress potential tenants with the City’s
demographics and point them to different amenities throughout the
community, but ultimately, if the owner and prospective tenant are unable
to agree on the basic business terms, there is not much more the City can
do.
C/Tye said that a member of the public commented that there are so many
empty store fronts and “we’re not addressing them” and really, nothing
could be further from the truth. Walmart made the decision to come to
Diamond Bar (an international corporation); Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf
has been around for 50 years, was started in Los Angeles and they made
the decision to come to Diamond Bar; Chipotle saves residents the trouble
of driving to City of Industry or Walnut because they came to Diamond Bar
– and those decisions are being made for good reason. He wonders how
many people remember a time when he and MPT/Herrera were on the
Council that led a campaign to persuade Trader Joes to come to Diamond
Bar and locate in what is now the Super H Mart property. They delivered
11,000 post cards to Trader Joes to convince them that this is the right
place. They liked the demographics, they liked the traffic count, but didn’t
like the location and chose to go elsewhere. There are a lot of moving
parts, but he does not believe it is fair to say that we are not addressing
them. We’re helping the folks that own the former Big Lots, we are with
the ICSC and doing everything we can. Again, we’re not the realtor or
property owner and we’re not really trying to say “come rent from us”,
we’re saying “this is what is available”. He believes that when the City
turned around Vons leaving, Hagan occupying overnight, Hagan leaving
6.1.a
Packet Pg. 48
OCTOBER 2, 2018 PAGE 8 CITY COUNCIL
after a few months and fortunately, landing Smart & Final Extra, whether
one likes that format or not, Diamond Bar is fortunate to have that
storefront occupied and producing sales tax revenue for the City. He
thinks overall, the City is doing everything it can do in every possible
arena.
C/Lyons thanked CM/Fox for the very comprehensive update and there
are good things working and there are good things signed. And she
imagines that a lot of people were unaware that Diamond Bar was ge tting
a Hampton Inn & Suites which was something that was signed fairly
recently. And it seems to her that there is something else on that property
that may not yet be signed.
CM/Fox said that staff is unaware of anything other than what has been
mentioned including a separate retail building, a restaurant building and a
medical and professional office building that will be part of that
development.
MPT/Herrera said that some people get frustrated with the vacancies and
there have been some businesses that are attracted to a different location
who talk with the property owner and determine, that because of the high
rent being asked, they back out. Is there anything that the City can do to
impose a lower rent?
CM/Fox responded that there really is nothing that the City can do to affect
the rents. Rent control for commercial uses is actually prohibited under
state law. There is not really anything from a legislative standpoint that the
City can do to manage or control the amount of rent the market will bear.
M/Low opened the item for public comment.
Bob Velker, stated that although he praised the City Council for the action
plan he felt that the report didn’t have a date on it. He feels that the reports
was lacking in data, substance, direction and is very superficial. He hopes
there is more to it than this.
C/Lin asked Mr. Velker what “document” he referred to .
Mr. Velker stated that it was the report that was attached to the agenda for
tonight’s meeting.
With no further public comments made, M/Low closed public comments.
CM/Fox explained that the attachment in the agenda packet is the three -
year development action plan that was reviewed at two study sessions by
the City Council in June and October 2017. It is intended to be a high -
6.1.a
Packet Pg. 49
OCTOBER 2, 2018 PAGE 9 CITY COUNCIL
level document to maintain flexibility and to be able to be responsive to
changes in the market and changes in property conditions. Overall, it sets
the commitment to work toward economic development and what the City
can do and what the City cannot do with respect to these opportunity
areas as they come and go over time. The actual information that is
passed out to perspective tenants is contained in separate documents.
Further, this document is intended to be an interactive process which can
be updated and the City can be flexible moving forward and conditions
change.
M/Low said that the document has the various areas divided into inter -
regions within the City and within each of the areas there are overall
objectives as well as, specific tasks that relate to the particular focus areas
which seems to her to be a very organized way of handling it. The
subcommittee meets quarterly so that the Council and staff is keeping a
close watch on this and measuring the pulse of the economic viability of
these areas. As members of the City Council, nothing happens without
money as everyone knows, and the economic development brings in the
tax dollars that fund the City’s programs, roadway improvements, public
safety and even this meeting tonight. One can be sure that the City
Council has economic development as one of its top, top priorities
together with traffic and public safety. She appreciates the comments this
evening and she thanked CM/Fox for his excellent report.
C/Lin said that despite what has been said this evening he believes the
staff of this City has done a very good job in growing economic
development. He remembers 17 years ago when he first moved to
Diamond Bar the Super H Mart site was completely blighted and even the
four corners at Diamond Bar Boulevard and Grand Avenue was fairly
blighted. And in 17 years these areas have been transported into very
viable economic centers for the City of Diamond Bar. The facts speak for
themselves and there is no doubt that economic development is an
ongoing activity. It is not something one sets a goal that can be attained
by a certain date and then quits. It is an ongoing pursuit and he applauds
staff’s efforts and without the City Council, nothing moves forward.
MPT/Herrera said how much she appreciated their constant efforts in this
area and in particular to CM/Fox and his staff for putting together this
report which shows that the City is doing a great deal in every way and in
every year to enhance economic development.
9. COUNCIL SUBCOMMITTEE REPORTS AND MEETING ATTENDANCE
REPORTS/COUNCIL MEMBER COMMENTS:
C/Tye said that “silly season” refers to the way people behave before an election,
not that “they” are silly. He is sorry if he offended anyone with that comment, but
it does get to what we saw with the senate judiciary committee and the way
6.1.a
Packet Pg. 50
OCTOBER 2, 2018 PAGE 10 CITY COUNCIL
adults are behaving and the way the mailboxes are full everyday of what he
thinks are at the very least half -truths. Folks posting inaccurate information or
misconstruing the facts or implying by innuendo with no chance for anyone to
deal with it will be over in 36 days. He encouraged people to vote and exercise
their right to do so. It was wonderful to have the Porter family here tonight and to
honor them for the action they took. It is very encouraging that a teenager
stepped up while mom wasn’t home and it shows she raised her kids well. At a
recent meeting Mary Lou Vargas and David Hernandez were honored for what
they did – stopping their cars at a busy intersection to help someone in need.
People in this community know how to take care of each other and the City is
grateful for them making this community a better place. His dad told him many
years ago there are two things you can be sure of with the Dodgers and the
Rams – they will break your heart every year. So with the Dodgers heading
toward the World Series let’s hope they bring the trophy back to Los Angeles
after 30 years.
MPT/Herrera spoke about the funeral mass was held for Monsignor Jim
Loughnane who passed away on September 17th and thanked the
Walnut/Diamond Bar Sheriff’s Station personnel for the tremendous job they did
in helping with crowd and traffic control. There were a lot of cars and over 1 ,000
people attended the mass at St. Denis Church and, the Sheriff’s Department was
a wonderful and helpful presence.
C/Lin echoed C/Tye’s comments about the Porter family and the Gehringer
family. This is what defines humanity and Diamond Bar. He asked CA/DeBerry
to address Mr. Wilson’s question about three Council Members being at the
same event whether it violates the Brown Act.
CA/DeBerry said he believed the question was should three Councilmembers
avoid being seen in the same place at any cost and the answer to that is “no.” In
this and other cities the full contingency of Cou ncil Members often attend the
same community events such as Concerts in the Park, 4th of July, and various
fundraising events for different foundations and, there is something in the
Constitution called Freedom of Association and the Brown Act is a very li mited
restriction on people’s rights to associate and it says “a quorum of the Council (3)
cannot meet at the same place and time to discuss City business” and never in
his 23 years as a City Attorney has he advised the City Council never to be in the
same place at any cost. He just advises them not to discuss City business
unless it is in a noticed meeting when three or more are present.
C/Lyons reported that last Friday she attended the San Gabriel Valley Legislative
Power Luncheon where all four speakers were female and they all informed the
audience members on a number of legislative issues. One of the speakers was
our very own M/Low who spoke very knowledgably about things in Diamond Bar
including traffic. M/Low did a great job in representing t he City and we are very
proud to have her. Tomorrow night starts the beginning of the Read Together
Diamond Bar activities at the library with a screening at 5:30 of the film Lion. She
6.1.a
Packet Pg. 51
OCTOBER 2, 2018 PAGE 11 CITY COUNCIL
and many others read the book over the summer. The book was original ly titled
A Long Way Home and it was updated to Lion. The book is excellent and the
movie screening tomorrow is free and she hopes everyone will join her at the
library at 5:30. On Sunday she will be at the Diamond Bar Multi -Cultural Festival
at Peterson Park from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Restaurant Week starts this
Friday
M/Low thanked C/Lyons for her compliment about the Legislative luncheon. It
was a pleasure to be part of a speaking engagement along with Congresswoman
Napolitano, Supervisor Hahn and State Senator Chang and what was nice about
that was their affirmance and their commitment, each one of them, to helping the
City with the SR57/60 Confluence project. They all said they were behind the
City and that they were working hard to secure the funding for the project. And
importantly, they understand how terrible that freeway intersection is and we vow
to get that done. She thanked staff for their participation in the event as well.
Last week she, Lin and Lyons attended the Evergreen Seniors Association to join
them in celebrating the Harvest Moon Festival. This group has over 1000
members who really know how to party. They were celebrating birthday and
moon festival with good food, singing and dancing. Be sure to check out the
event next year which is open to everyone and is a lot of fun. A special thanks to
Mr. Chi, their Chairman and founder for the special recognition. She has noticed
that on trash pickup days there are certain people who have gone around the
neighborhoods and taking recyclables from various trash cans which is against
the law. We have Anti-Scavenging Ordinances so if you see people doing this,
please feel free to call the Sheriff’s Department to report them. The reason the
City has these ordinances is because when people are scavenging into trash
bins and looking for recyclables it becomes an act of theft because once the
homeowner puts the recycling into the bin and puts it on the sidewalk the
recyclables belong to the trash hauler. Also, the City has various goal s for
recyclables it must meet and when they are being pulled out it could put the City
in jeopardy and it creates health hazards and public safety issues, potential of
identity theft, etc. Please drive safely in and about the schools, especially during
morning arrival and afternoon exit. Bad behavior is dangerous behavior. Please
drive safely. She thanked staff for another great month of work which is much
appreciated.
ADJOURNMENT: With no further business to conduct, M/Low adjourned the
Regular City Council Meeting at 7:41 p.m.

beneficial to retain a full range of professional capabilities with consulting firms that are
able to meet and address the City’s vision and goals when serving the community and
maintaining critical infrastructure.
Penco is currently under contract with the City for on -call engineering services and has
performed exceptionally well on both land development plan check and engineering
design with the completion of the design for the Pantera Park Walkway Lighting Project.
TAIT is currently under contract with the City for on -call architectural services and has
also performed exceptionally well developing conceptual plans for the new Sunset
Crossing Park for grant funding application. This contract will expand TAIT’s services to
include on-call engineering services.

experience in providing a variety of services including engineering design, land
development plan check, federal funding compliance, grant writing, environmental
compliance, staff augmentation, construction management and survey. HR Green has

Our Land Development Plan Check Approach
There must be a coordinated effort and responsibility to review, track , and coordinate all applications and
requests received in the City. To help assure that submittals from any applicant are
properly handled, HR Green has a proven internal plan review coordination process,
GreenTRExSM, to make certain that each plan received is properly processed and
returned on time.
The status of any plan can be easily determined at any point in time. HR Green's GreenTREx development
review process/program allows us to efficiently complete plan tasks concurrently. This is a formalized and
integrated process whereby Technician data input and processing, Review, and Experienced professional
staff manage quality control functions that are consistently implemented on each and every project.
Initial Review
Once we receive a complete set of plan documents, we will
perform our plan review in the agreed-upon timeframe, reviewing
for compliance to all standards. All corrections are identified
based on compliance with specified standards, ordinances, and
regulations and clearly identify the areas requiring corrections or
revisions. Generally, corrections are provided in two ways:
1. Redlines made on the plans;
2. Correction matrix detailing the items needing to be
addressed before plan approval.
The correction matrix provided will contain the following:
The date plans were received
The date the plan review was completed
The name and contact information of the reviewer
Transmittal of Plans and Comment Lists for Plan Review
At the heart of our approach in delivering our services to you is the recognition that there must be a
coordinated effort to track and coordinate all submittals and requests received. To help assure that
submittals are properly coordinated and tracked, we have established an internal pl an review coordination
process in which each plan received for review is properly handled, processed, and returned on time.

Upon completion of our review, any comments generated are consolidated into a correction letter which is
forwarded to the applicant. At the same time, an electronic copy is maintained within the City system for
reference.

Once we have verified that the resubmittal package is complete, we perform a recheck in the agreed -upon
timeframe. This process is repeated until the project plan documents are ready to be recommended for
approval.
Plan Approval
Upon plan approval, our team will sign a copy of the final plans, scan, and provide an electronic copy for
City records.
Electronic Plan Review / Tracking of Review Comments
We will track review comments to verify that each comment has been addressed by the
design team. This is critical on larger, multi-disciplined projects where there may be
overlap between design disciplines. Comments from each review cycle are summarized
electronically by our staff. Design responses are added and included with the next
submittal to verify that all comments have been addressed. This approach has been
effective in resolving comments at early stages, avoiding repeat comments by rev iewers, and coordinating
responses among disciplines. We also update a detailed tracking log whereby the agency can identify the
status of any project through the review lifecycle process in real time.
Our Inspection Approach
In order to comply with Greenbook, MS4 Permit, and local design standards, it is important to assign
qualified and accredited inspectors to monitor public and private construction work, street rehabilitation, and
infrastructure improvements that comply with project plans and specifications. Our staff uses a Construction
Management Plan (CMP) to manage projects. The CMP is a project-specific plan that serves as a guideline
for the execution of all construction-related activities. The purpose of the plan is to facilitate smooth
coordination and communication among parties involved, including the designers and the City staff, and to
establish protocols for effective execution of the project requirements. The CMP is prepared immediately
after our mobilization and updated continually as a project matures. A partial list of the activities and
procedures covered in the CMP includes:

Our inspectors bring extensive land development and CIP public works infrastructure experience to cities
throughout Southern California. They know community concerns, environmental characteristics, and provide
inspection services for projects, regardless of their construction type or size. They handle all inspection
services for all types of municipal projects, including developments, encroachment permits, overlay,
construction, street maintenance, landscape, traffic signal, drainage, wet/dry utilities, and similar projects.
Our staff is dedicated to providing the highest level of customer service and ensuring that all work is in
conformance with City requirements and all other applicable design standards, water quality requirements,
and codes with detailed daily reports and photographic documentation provided.
Our inspectors utilize field inspection applications and hand held devices (e.g., document in writing, pictures,
and report findings weekly to project file) tied digitally to the project design records.
Our inspection can be adjusted on fast track projects to provide a high level of coordination specifically
suited to gain compliance with all applicable codes on a shortened timetable. The need to track and assess
design changes in the field has created a need for inspectors on these projects to be especially aware of
changing conditions. Fast-track projects may be built into small phases based on incremental design and
fabrication steps. In such cases, our inspection team keeps daily logs to track corrections and plan review
changes. Our inspection team also provides on-call inspection services to cover staff vacation time, peak
workloads, specialized inspection activities and others as needed. T hese activities may include:
Next-day inspections
Same-day response to important or urgent inspection requests
Inspections of a clearly urgent nature (emergencies, serious life-safety concerns, etc.)

The following approach describes how our typical
approach to defining scopes and executing a
civil engineering design project would satisfy the
requirements in the City of Diamond Bar. Once provided
with a specific project, a more detailed description of
each task will be provided. Our scope of the Design Stage
usually consists of the following phases: Data Collection
and Base Plan Preparation, Preliminary Engineering,
Construction Documents – Final Engineering, and
Bidding and Construction Assistance.
Phase I - Data Collection and Base Plan Preparation.
During this phase, PENCO will meet with the City staff
and hold a kickoff meeting to identify project goals,
schedule, criteria, and constraints, obtain city records,
and establish the lines of communication. Also during
this phase, PENCO will identify all utility companies,
permitting agencies, and required environmental
clearances needed for the project. In addition, PENCO
will proceed to conduct specific Topographic Surveys
of the project site in NAD83 and NAVD88 and, in some
cases, obtain aerial topographic map. The scope of the
survey will depend on the Project. In some cases, cross
sections will be obtained in order to aid in the design of
the proposed improvements. We will also include Right-
of-Way information based on record maps and proceed
to prepare Base Plans using the City standard format.
The base plans will be the standard 24” x 36” size sheets
and will include topographic surveys, right-of-way, and
underground utility information.
Phase II - Preliminary Engineering. During this phase
of the Project, PENCO will apply general information
obtained for the project and will proceed to present
detailed recommendations and alternative designs
for City approval. We will also perform a detailed field
review of the Project Site to verify the accuracy of the
base plan and to identify any additional constraints
that may affect the design. PENCO will then proceed
to develop alternative conceptual designs to meet the
City’s Project goals. This will include preparing additional
studies (alignments, hydrology, and hydraulics) required
to develop such alternatives and will then evaluate
the alternatives based on cost and constructability.
To complete this phase, PENCO will meet with the
City and present the alternatives and provide our
recommendations based on the pros and cons of each of
C. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
GENERAL ENGINEERING APPROACH & METHODOLOGY

Packet Pg. 108
City of Diamond Bar
On-Call Civil Engineering and Architectural Services -

Page 10
the alternatives presented. We will then incorporate City
comments and obtain approval before proceeding in the
preparation of the Construction Documents.
PENCO is aware that the projects may range from
the preparation of improvement plans for street
rehabilitation, widening, realignment, streetscape
work, or other related street improvements; upgrades,
modifications, extensions and/or replacement of sewer
and storm drain facilities; to the preparation of studies
and supporting documentation for the areas listed,
including hydrology and hydraulic analysis, storm drain
and sewer studies, network analysis, the preparation
of NPDES, WQMP and SWPPP Reports, the processing
of CEQA compliance and NEPA documentation, and
inspection services for grading, street, sanitary sewer,
storm drain and facility improvements.
PENCO is prepared to provide community outreach
assistance by appearing at public meetings to provide
exhibits and answer technical questions or any other
assistance the City may need.
Phase III - Construction Documents - Final Engineering.
PENCO will prepare the Construction Documents
in compliance with the City requirements and , as
necessary, specific funding guideline requirements. The
Construction Plans will typically include a title sheet,
typical section plan sheet, plan and profile sheets, detail
sheets, erosion control sheet, signing and striping, and
traffic control sheets, etc., as needed. The plans will be
prepared on our previously prepared base plans, clearly
defining the limits of work, limits of removals, and clearly
defining the new construction items. PENCO will prepare
the Project Specifications in the City’s required format,
using the City “Boiler Plate,” or the APWA “Greenbook”
Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction.
Project Specifications will be prepared and submitted
to the City using Microsoft Word. We will also prepare a
detailed Engineer’s Construction Cost Estimate for the
Project. The estimate will serve as the basis of the bid
sheet for the Project.
During this phase of the Project, PENCO will coordinate
with all Utility Companies, Caltrans, and other Cities and
obtain the required permits for the specific projects.
In addition, during this Construction Document phase,
all Environmental clearances and NPDES applications
will be processed and secured. Submittals of 60%, 90%
and 100% Final Construction Plans, Specifications, and
Estimates to the City are anticipated at the submittal
requirements.
Phase IV - Bidding and Construction. During the
bidding phase, PENCO will attend the pre-bid meeting,
answer bidder questions, attend job walks, assist
in the preparation of the addenda, analyze bids,
and recommend award. PENCO could also provide
construction staking for the Project, and for this item,
we will coordinate with the City staff and the selected
Contractor. Once the project is awarded, PENCO will
attend the preconstruction meeting, visit the site, review
shop drawings and submittals, and respond to RFI’s to
interpret plans or to provide resolutions to changed field
conditions. Once construction is completed, PENCO will
utilize redlines provided by the Contractor and any other
available information to prepare “As-Built” drawings.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT PLAN (PMP)
Successful completion of the project will require a
well-conceived management and control plan, based
on past successful strategies. Mr. Gary Solsona, PE,
QSD, Project Manager, will have responsibility for
project management activities to meet the specifics
for this project. The PENCO team’s PMP will be the
summation of PENCO’s past successful strategies and
Mr. Solsona’s role as Project Manager. PENCO’s PMP will
include special emphasis on project communications
procedures, preparation of Scope of Work, and the
submittal process. Upon Notice-to-proceed (NTP), and
before initiating any work, our team will prepare and
submit a PMP for the City’s review and approval. The
specific elements of the PMP can be categorized into
three key areas: Progress Report Systems, Cost/Design
Schedule Control, and QA/QC.
Project Delivery Process. A successful project begins
with an effective Scoping Meeting to establish project
expectations, assumptions, scope, schedule, and
budget. PENCO’s staff will meet with City Staff early in
the process to determine project criteria such as design
criteria, engineering standards, project constraints,
schedule requirements, and potential coordination with
other projects within the area. This information will
be used by the PENCO team to develop a concise and
detailed scope of work, schedule, and budget for the
project.
Progress Reporting Systems. Mr. Solsona’s proactive
communication style means that he will always be
available to the City’s Project Manager. This accessibility,
combined with our team’s understanding of the City’s
needs, generates a team that is ready to mobilize quickly
and assign the right staff to a given task.
1. Document Control. Before initiating any task order,
PENCO will complete a checklist that includes a
list of project deliverables and submittal formats.
Adherence to Document Control Plan requirements
assures quality and speeds up project delivery. Our
PMP will also include a detailed Document Control
Plan for the project. The Document Control Plan
specifies procedures for documenting, transmitting,
and storing communication items for the project
6.4.b
Packet Pg. 109
City of Diamond Bar
On-Call Civil Engineering and Architectural Services -
General Engineering Services
Page 11
including meeting minutes, correspondence,
submittals, and filing of hard copies and electronic
files.
2. Progress Reporting. The PENCO team will provide
the City’s Project Manager with a monthly status
report. This report will include project management
status, work accomplished during the reporting
period, work to be completed during the next
reporting period, budget and schedule status,
potential out-of-scope items, and issues and
concerns raised during the reporting period.
3. Communication Plan. Recognizing that effective
project communication is the key component for a
successful project, our team will once again focus on
clearly defining project team communications.
Mr. Solsona will be the single point-of-contact for the
City’s Project Manager and all team communication.
• A Project Communications Plan will be developed as
part of the overall PMP. This Communications Plan
will include a list of contact information for all team
members, their roles, and responsibilities of the
project.
• The Project Communications Plan will be monitored
closely. At each Project Development Team (PDT)
meeting, the team will discuss any success and
failures of the team’s communication with the City
of Diamond Bar and/or the City’s staff members, and
will proactively look for opportunities to improve the
project team’s communication.
Cost Control / Design Schedule Control. Upon receipt
of the Notice-to-Proceed (NTP), our team will develop a
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) budget and schedule
program to monitor the project budget and schedule.
PENCO’s accounting system is designed to assist Mr.
Solsona and financial managers in efficiently monitoring
project costs. Project cost sheets will be available weekly
for Mr. Solsona, and will show all labor and indirect costs
by task. This information, and a detailed estimate of
physical progress made during each reporting period,
will be used to prepare status reports and update an
earned value report. The project will be reviewed at
each project milestone or bi-monthly.
Our Project Management team will conduct monthly
project schedule reviews to identify potential deviations
and formulate a plan of action to minimize impacts to
the schedule. Schedule updates will be made available
to City Staff for review. Mr. Solsona will use an Action
Item Checklist as a management tool to track the
responsibilities of PENCO team project personnel. Each
item will identify the responsible individual and due
date, and will be diligently tracked by Mr. Solsona to
assure completion. Mr. Solsona will monitor progress of
the designing team members, on a weekly basis.
Completion will be tracked and compared to the
baseline schedule; slippage will be identified and
corrective actions taken to restore the schedule
to original forecasted completion dates. PENCO is
committed to a preparing a project for the City of
Diamond Bar that is not only technically successful,
but fiscally responsible as well. Accordingly, all project
expenditures will be tabulated and monitored on a
weekly basis by Mr. Solsona, who will be responsible
for taking corrective action on the baseline budget, as
required.
To conduct the project control effort, PENCO will utilize
Microsoft Office software for project management
scheduling, and cost control. Microsoft Project will
be used to establish the master project schedule in
accordance with the agreed-upon work breakdown,
so that the schedule can be integrated into discrete
work elements for budgeting and monitoring purposes.
The master project schedule will provide essential
information necessary to determine the project’s critical
path and to report the project’s status.
QA/QC Process and Procedures
The Project Team is committed to providing the City
with the best possible product, on schedule and within
budget. To accomplish this, the Team has a Quality
Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) Program that is
organized in a manner that will accommodate the
specific needs and requirements of the Project. PENCO’s
QA/QC program is generally divided into two phases:
a. Design Team Review. This review is performed by
members of the Project Team as the work progresses.
Prior to the start of any design work, an analysis is
made to determine the technical requirements, the
needs and requirements of the Client, jurisdictional
requirements, and any fiscal constraints or schedule
requirements of the Project. At this time, specific quality
control requirements and internal review procedures
are established for the Project. The quality control
requirements usually include the following:
• Analyzing design requirements and assigning work
tasks to specific design or drafting staff.
• This is conducted by personnel of equal or higher
classification than the Staff accomplishing the work.
• Establishing internal review procedures with
PENCO’s checklist. All designs are reviewed by
members of the Design Team. Review of work, both
completed tasks and those tasks in progress during
the project design. This will include review by the
design staff.
6.4.b
Packet Pg. 110
City of Diamond Bar
On-Call Civil Engineering and Architectural Services -
General Engineering Services
Page 12
• The Project Manager reviews all quality control
steps and revisions with the Project Engineer before
incorporating in the final plans. The Project Manager
reviews the monthly project budget and the project
schedule to ensure the project complies with
established goals and the City’s requirements.
• The City is encouraged to be involved in the QA/QC
process. PENCO will maintain regular contact with
City Staff and will schedule project status meetings
to insure that the project objectives are met.
b. Independent Peer Review. This review is conducted
at various project phases such as the 60%, 90% and
100% Final by design personnel who are outside of
the regular Project Design Team. Peer review consists
of a detailed review of project work products. This
process involves the assignment of senior personnel,
including Principals of the Team member firms, to
perform detailed, independent reviews of the work
being performed on the Project. The selection of
senior personnel for this task is based on professional
expertise, specific knowledge of similar projects, and
years of experience. The detail reviewer’s responsibility
will include: Evaluation of the overall project concept
at preliminary phase; Verification of the adequacy of
the design to achieve the project goals; Evaluation
of possible design alternatives; Review of QA/QC
by the Design Team Review; Review the project for
constructability. Review with a contractor set of eyes;
Recommendations made by the independent reviewer
are made directly to the Project Manager, who has the
responsibility to evaluate the recommendations and
implement changes, as required.
Stakeholder Coordination
It is imperative to keep all stakeholders well informed
of project status including, but not limited to, utilities,
permit agencies, City departments, residences and
businesses. We discuss and resolve issues as they
evolve. We make sure that the contractor is aware of the
notification requirements for apprising stakeholders of
the work that may impact them.
SURVEY APPROACH
Survey and Mapping Services General
Requirements
PENCO has determined that J Braley, PLS, will be your
Survey Manager. Mr. Braley will maintain accessibility
during all business hours for City inquiries relating
to projects, project communications, and project
performance. The single quality that differentiates
PENCO from our competitors, since most consultants
have strong technical skills, is our ability to
communicate with our clients and maintain project
budgets and deliverables.
Official Map Preparation
PENCO has two Professional Surveyors on staff, with an
accumulative 90 years of experience in surveying and
mapping. PENCO’s experience with the preparation of
Final Maps (Tract Maps and Parcel Maps), and Records of
Survey allows us to prepare these maps in a manner that
will provide for a minimum number of plan checks.
Legal Descriptions
PENCO has experience with the Vacations of Public
right-of-ways, preparation of legal descriptions, exhibit
plats and traverse closure calculations each of which
is an integral component of processing and recording
easements. We are very familiar with simple one page
easements along with the multi-segmented, many paged,
easements that are often times prepared for public
agencies, water districts or Southern California Edison
Company. PENCO also is very adept at the plotting or
interpreting of existing easements of record that is often
times necessary in the verification of subsurface utilities
being consistent with easements of record.
Topographic Survey Mapping
PENCO has experience providing topography to our
public works, institutional, and general contracting
clients in the local area. In accordance with appropriate
agency standards and PENCO’s standards, we
incorporate horizontal control, based upon the California
Coordinate System, NAD’83, Zone VI, 2007 Epoch, and
vertical control based, upon NAVD’88 datum. PENCO
utilizes the latest GPS and total station technology to
prepare detailed project topography. A topo survey, if
there is such a thing, would typically be a combination
of aerial topography and ground specific topography.
Our electronic data and drawing files are created
within AutoCAD Civil3d software and established to
be consistent with the appropriate agency’s mapping
standards.
Right of Way Survey
The typical street right-of-way base map is compiled
from record data available from a combination of
resources. This mapping process should begin with a
thorough investigation at the County Recorder’s office
to obtain copies of recorded final maps (i.e.: Tract Maps,
Parcel Maps, Record of Surveys, Corner Records, Lot Line
Adjustments, etc.) along with a preliminary title report
for each of the abutting land parcels to the proposed
street right-of-way. The base map process will also
incorporate a collection, review and understanding of
current centerline tie notes on file with the County of Los
Angeles. The Right-of-Way base map is the foundation of
6.4.b
Packet Pg. 111
City of Diamond Bar
On-Call Civil Engineering and Architectural Services -
General Engineering Services
Page 13
a successful design survey for the Engineer/Surveyor and
is a very critical component in the civil design phase and
in the determination of public and private ownership.
Street Monument Preservation
Due to the number of ALTA Surveys, Public Works
Strip Topographic Surveys, and Institutional Aerial
Topographic Survey Maps prepared by PENCO, we often
prepare Pre-Construction Corner Record Certificates
and Post-Construction Corner Record Certificates in
accordance with the California Land Surveyor’s Act,
Section 8771. This process allows for the verification of
existing monuments and centerline ties, along with the
replacement of centerline monuments and reference
ties.
Construction Staking
PENCO has spent many years developing a very strong
Construction Staking process that lends itself to a
series of checks and balances on our in-house support
calculations and field staking operations. PENCO’s team
of office and field surveyors have been working together
for approximately 15 years, and we take great pride
in our workmanship and communication skills. Upon
receipt of an NTP from the City, we would typically
prepare a Survey Staking Plan, based upon project
information provided by the City. This would include
boundary data, easement information, and all proposed
construction items (i.e.: utilities, buildings, curbs, gutters,
walkways, etc.) that are to be constructed. The Survey
Staking Plan would include specific staking items, per
the daily work request, along with the stake numbers,
point numbers, coordinate values, stake elevation, and
stake offset. This plan will be utilized in conjunction with
the daily grade sheets prepared by our field surveyors
and two copies left at the site. The Survey Staking Plan
is intended to, and has been proven to, minimize project
restaking; and provides an excellent reference map for
general contractors’ subcontractors.
As-Built Surveys
As-Built Surveys are quickly becoming a more common
request in the construction industry. This has much to do
with the cost of materials and time loss on construction
projects that are forced to remove curbs, gutters,
utilities, and sometimes building footings and walls due
to being constructed incorrectly. Upon receipt of an
NTP from the City, we would request hard copy plans
and electronic CAD files of the construction project and
prepare a Staking Plot that depicts boundary, easements
of record, along with the proposed construction features
(i.e., utilities, public improvements, hardscaping,
buildings, etc.). This Staking Plan is used by the field
surveyors to complete their daily staking tasks and two
copies are left at the site for the project superintendent.
This plan will identify the current staking that was
placed for the contractor’s use, along with stake
identifications being point numbers, coordinate values,
point description, and stake offsets. The Staking Plan is
to be utilized in conjunction with the daily grade sheets,
and the plan standard is to have field survey verification,
horizontal and vertical, of particular construction
components throughout the construction project.
PENCO would respond to a City request, determine exact
scope of “As-Built” limits needed, determine control
that was utilized for construction of said facilities, collect
field data, prepare field notes, obtain site photographs
of pertinent objects, transmit to our office, prepare
mapping exhibits, along with a summary explanation
report of findings.
Benchmark Verifications/Establishment
PENCO maintains the most up to date survey
equipment available and repeatedly is determining the
relationship of one benchmark to another throughout
the appropriate agency. Our standard field process is
to incorporate a minimum of three record benchmarks
in a project assessment. We will provide benchmark
verification level notes, along with any adjustments
that may be required. If necessary, a project specific
secondary site benchmark will be established for project
construction utilization. This benchmark could be set
in a number of differing methods depending on the
appropriate agency and the project requirements.
Horizontal and Vertical Control
PENCO’s survey crews establish or verify horizontal
and vertical control, on a daily basis, for the following
types of projects: design topo; boundary mapping;
public works; and land development. We utilize the
California Coordinate System of 1983, Zone VI, 2007
Epoch for horizontal control network, and the North
American Datum of 1988 for our vertical datum. All
control establishments are documented with daily
field notes, depicting specific equipment utilized, field
measurements, staff, weather conditions, etc.
INSPECTION SERVICES
Our subconsultant, FCG, has a wealth of experience in
Construction Management and Inspection. We have
successfully managed and inspected many public
works projects and developed strong relationships
based on trust and respect. Communication is a key
process to ensure the success of any project. Although
many of the components are the same, we hand-craft
a technical approach for each of our Client’s Projects
depending on the needs of the stakeholders that can
include coordination, field inspection, project support,
project cost and schedule, contract change orders,
safety, project close-out and acceptance, construction
scheduling, and quality management.

LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE SERVICES
Our approach to providing landscape architecture services is to first meet with the City staff to get a clear
understanding of each project and how the City would like us to function. We are able to provide service as a seamless
extension of City staff; however, we also understand the need to work independently to deliver high quality products
that meet the City’s guidelines, on time, and on budget. In addition, we bring a unique set of skills that will provide
added value to the City’s improvement projects including Sustainable Landscape and LID design, Water Efficient
Irrigations, Universal Access design and Multi-Modal design including Green and Complete Streets. Our general scope
of services consists of four phases: 1) Preliminary Design, 2) Design Development, 3) Construction Documents and 4)
Bidding and Construction Support Services. The Preliminary Design phase consists of a kickoff meeting with City staff,
preparation of a conceptual design and participating in community workshops. The Design Development phase
includes identifying design/construction alternatives to minimize project costs and mitigate conflicts between
proposed and existing site conditions, preparation of a preliminary opinion of probable construction costs and a
project progress meeting with City staff. The Construction Documents phase consists of preparation of drawings and
specifications based on the approved design development documents (site construction / layout plans, planting plans,
irrigation plans and/or associated details). The Bidding and Construction Support Services phase includes attending
the pre-bid meeting, assisting the City in reviewing bids, attending the pre-construction meeting, review of RFIs and
submittals of landscaping and irrigation related items of work and preparation of as-built drawings of the planting and
irrigation plans.

PENCO’s approach to project review success in providing
exceptional On-Call Land Development Services
(including plan check and inspection) to the City of
Diamond Bar encompasses many facets of team work,
communication, quality control/quality assurance,
project understanding and intent, budget constraints,
close coordination with City staff, utility purveyors and
any other stake holders that may be affected by the
designated project within this contract.
At the top of this important list of factors that will
lead to our project success is effective communication
between our internal review team and the City’s Project
Manager and staff to ensure we provide the City with
the support they are looking for but also to minimize the
impact to any politically sensitive areas or disruption to
the general public’s ability to navigate within the City’s
proposed project limits. The closest possible rapport
will be developed with the City’s Project Manager
to understand any special budget constraints, time
schedules and associated impacts. Building an excellent
communications will allow us to more easily define
problem areas, technical requirements and to facilitate a
smoother acceptance and approval process.
Within our highly skilled staff of engineers, project
managers, QA/QC team and constructability reviewers
are personnel that take their chosen profession very
seriously. This team strives for the highest quality of
service in each project review. Because our plan check
engineers are also experienced designers that utilize the
local, regional and other applicable design standards on
a day to day basis, we can assure the improvement plans
and associated reports and documents will meet the
current applicable codes and standards.
PENCO uses these very important project controls to
deliver a project review that meets the City’s financial
goals, schedule and ability to deliver to its citizens
the level of professionally developed projects that
are consistent with the values and goals of the City of
Diamond Bar. We will succeed as a partner with the City
of Diamond Bar in the projects we are selected to review
now and in the future.
APPROACH
General plan checking review services include review
of the conditions of approval, review of reference
material, review of City standard plans and plan
check requirements, accessibility, constructability/
clarity, maintenance and general design and inspection
services. Inspection services will be performed by
our subconsultant, FCG Consultants. We will perform
grading, right-of-way, and site accessibility plan reviews
for projects constructed in the City for conformance with
City Codes and ordinances, including the “Greenbook”
Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction,
County Standards and Design Manual, and California
Building Codes related to site accessibility.
If circumstances arise, we will review the WQMP along
with grading review, or by itself in conformance with
Regional Board NPDES permit, City Codes and ordinances
and other City specific requirements.
Extensive coordination is required between the different
City departments and engineer of record to ensure quick
turnaround times. We, as the City’s Plan Check Engineer,
will do everything possible to expedite the services
process. PENCO understands plan checking will follow a
set schedule of turnaround time-frames as established
by the City and shall not exceed three total plan check
cycles. Should any occasion arise where a plan check
is expected to exceed three cycles, PENCO will inform
the City’s engineering staff and a meeting will be
coordinated by the City with PENCO and the developer
to resolve outstanding issues.
PENCO will scan all plan checks for record keeping
purposes until plans receive final approval by the City. A
record of when plans are received and returned to the
City will also be kept.
PENCO understands that all improvement plan check
services shall be performed by or under the responsible
charge of a California Licensed Professional Engineer
(and/or California Licensed Land Surveyor as applicable)
eligible to prepare and sign such plans.
Development Plan Checking Services
PENCO also understands that a minimum, plan check
services shall be provided in conformance with the
most current version of the following documents and
standards:
• California Building Codes related to site accessibility
• Low Impact Development Ordinance No. 11(2013)
• City of Diamond Bar Grading Plan Check
Requirements
• City of Diamond Bar Grading Ordinance and Hillside

• Approved Specific Plans, Site Plans, Environmental
Documents, and/or Tentative and Final Maps
• Grants, easements, or vacations as applicable
• Traverse, Lot and Tract Boundary Closures for final or
parcel maps Subdivision Map Act
• Conditions of Approval and Title Reports
PENCO understands that for land development projects,
prior to completion of the first plan check, PENCO shall
research existing City engineering records including,
but not limited to the documents described above
for consistency with the proposed improvements.
PENCO shall also visit the project site to verify the
proposed improvements are consistent with the physical
constraints in the field.
Facilitating the Plan Check Process
We understand the concern, need and desire to
complete plan checks within three (3) plan checks or
less. It has been our experience that when three (3)
plan checks or more are required, there is potentially an
issue or concern that has not been addressed up front or
there has been a breakdown in communication. We have
experienced success in the past by implementing the
following approach.
1. Timely and complete technical reviews of the
submitted plans and associated reports.
2. Sound record keeping and documentation of
when plan reviews are submitted, and returned,
correspondence files, meeting minutes (if necessary)
plan check mark-ups and reference materials.
3. Communication between plan reviewer(s) and the
Engineer/Architect of Record through phone calls,
e-mails, faxes and plan check review meetings, as
needed. Keeping our client and the project owners
informed through CC’s of Review Memo’s, e-mails
and Plan Check Logs.
Record Keeping and Reporting
Through years of experience, we have developed
streamlined procedures that produce timely, accurate
and consistent plan reviews. All Improvement Plans
submitted will be logged into a plan check log. The
plan check log tracks the engineer of record, types of
improvement plans submitted, date submitted, due
date to be completed, and any significant comments
or submittal requirements outstanding for that plan
review. PENCO will provide regular updates (typically on
a weekly basis) of the status of plan reviews to report
progress and anticipated return dates of projects that
are in for plan check.
Turnaround Time
Although plan review turnaround time frames will
vary with the complexity or extent of the project, the
requirements outlined in the City’s RFP are acceptable.
From our experience, the plan check review periods are
as follows:
• 1st Submittal: PENCO will complete the initial plan
check work, of drawings and of related documents,
within ten (10) working days from the date that
complete drawings and related documents arrive
in consultant’s office. An exception shall be that,
for projects of major size and/or complexity (as
mutually agreed), the period of performance shall be
negotiated with the City.
• When plan corrections shall be required, a written
plan correction list shall be provided to the applicant,
or the applicant’s agent(s).
• 2nd Submittal: PENCO will complete the second
plan check work, of drawings and of related
documents, within ten (10) working days from the
date the complete and revised drawings and related
documents arrive in consultant’s office. Plans and
documents for re-checking shall be submitted (in
response to correction lists) by the applicant, or by
the applicant’s agent(s).
• 3rd Submittal: PENCO will complete any subsequent
re-checks, of drawings and of related documents,
within ten (10) working days from the date the
complete and revised drawings and related
documents arrive in consultant’s office. Plans and
documents for subsequent re-checking shall be
submitted (in response to correction lists) by the
applicant, or by the applicant’s agent(s).
• Approval: One (1) week
Expedited reviews although not typical, are anticipated
and we are open to having discussions with the City and
executing these types of reviews, if necessary.
Potential Scope of Services
The Scope of Services for potential tasks may include:
Mass, Rough and/or Precise Grading Plans:
PENCO will perform review of rough grading plans for
substantial conformance to the approved documents
from the entitlement process, including but not limited
to tentative map, drainage concepts (hydrology and
hydraulics), water quality BMPs, etc. Review of precise
grading plans consists of conformance with the City’s
grading ordinance and subdivision manual, including

but not limited to, verification of detailed finish grade
elevations to show drainage patterns, flowlines for lot
drainage, proposed paving, grading plans are signed and
sealed by a Registered Civil Engineer, and may include
identifying all previous preliminary grading permits
issued for the project site.
Street Improvements Plans: PENCO will review
subdivision street improvement plans, provide
comments and recommend for approval. We will
check for compliance with City adopted Standard
Plans and applicable regulations using the checklist
available on-line or as provided by staff. Services shall
include initial and subsequent reviews, full or partial
plan review services, interaction with the client and
recommendations to City staff for final approval. To
ensure adequate document preparation, we shall attend
project status meetings with City staff and with others as
required to discuss status and/or details of the project.
Wet Utility Plan Review (Sewer, Water, Storm
Drain, Potable Water and/or Recycled Water):
PENCO will perform review of wet utility plans,
consisting of sewer, water and storm drain, including,
but not limited to, verifying conformance to City’s design
standards, constructability of the proposed wet utility
design improvements considering site constraints,
design requirements, existing conditions, confirm labels
and calculations of pipe slopes, pipe size, material and
hydraulic data. Additional items for review include
verification of basic separation standards for water
mains and sanitary sewers/storm drains in compliance
with the California Waterworks Standards and California
Department of Public Health criteria to prevent
contamination of the public water supplies, verification
of pressure zone boundaries, if necessary, for water
improvements, confirmation of existing storm drain
and sewer structure capacities, identify potential utility
conflicts, and compare manhole rim elevation versus pad
elevations.
Hydrology Studies and Hydraulics Calculations:
Services can include, but is not limited to the below:
• Provide preliminary design review of hydrology/
hydraulics technical reports for proposed private
development projects and attend City design review
meetings as necessary. PENCO will be performing
the duties to complete these task orders.
• Verify the new site won’t put additional stress on the
existing drainage system
• Verify post-development flow doesn’t exceed
existing conditions
• Verify all tributary areas that may increase the
proposed development’s runoff
Water Quality Management Plans (WQMP)
Review: We will review the WQMP in conformance
with the Regional Board NPDES permit, Model WQMP,
City Codes and ordinances and other City specific
requirements. Reviewers will be a certified Qualified
SWPPP Developer (QSD) and Qualified SWPPP
Practitioner (QSP).
Map Checking (Easements and Right-Of-Way
Dedications, Lot Line Adjustments, Tract and
Parcel Maps, Title and Closure Reports):
PENCO will provide review of subdivision improvement
projects, which would include review of easements and
right-of-way dedications; lot line adjustments; tract and
parcel maps; title and closure reports; and all applicable
plans and recommendations as well as any other related
reports and recommendations to ensure constructability
considering site constraints, design requirements, and
existing conditions. Typically, tasks would include initial
site assessments, review of all plans, and reports.
The following general approach describes PENCO’s
approach to define scopes and to execute Survey Map
Checks for assigned projects. At this time, each task has
been simplified; once we are provided with a specific
project, a more detailed description of each task will be
provided.
Our scope of the Final Map Plan Check program usually
consists of the following phases:
• 1st Plan Check
• 2nd Plan Check
• 3rd Plan Check
• Additional Plan Checks as needed
1st Plan Check: During this phase, PENCO will review
title reports, deeds, record maps, tie notes, and Corner
Records for impact on boundary establishment. We
will provide a thorough review on the first plan check
to ensure adherence to the Subdivision Map Act,
The County Subdivision Ordinance, and the City map
checking procedures. We will review our comments
with City staff before issuing to the surveyor/ Engineer
of Record. In addition, we will review our comments
with City staff before issuing to the surveyor/Engineer
of Record. We will utilize these standard procedures for
each subsequent plan check. Each submittal will comply
with a timeline that will be established by the City at the
start of the project plan check process.
2nd Plan Check: During this phase, PENCO will check
the revisions against comments made in the 1st Plan
Check and issue to the surveyor/Engineer of Record for
resubmittal.

3rd Plan Check: During this phase, PENCO will check the
revisions against comments made in 2nd plan check and
issue to the surveyor/Engineer of Record for final Mylar
request.
Inspection Services:
Our subconsultant, FCG, has a wealth of experience in
Construction Management and Inspection. We have
successfully managed and inspected many public
works projects and developed strong relationships
based on trust and respect. Communication is a key
process to ensure the success of any project. Although
many of the components are the same, we hand-craft
a technical approach for each of our Client’s Projects
depending on the needs of the stakeholders that can
include coordination, field inspection, project support,
project cost and schedule, contract change orders,
safety, project close-out and acceptance, construction
scheduling, and quality management.
QA/QC PROGRAM FOR ENGINEERING
PLAN CHECK REVIEW
The plan review is performed by assigned members
of the project team. Prior to the start of any plan

The City currently utilizes TransCore’s TranSuite traffic management system which
enables remote monitoring and control of traffic signal timing from the Traffic
Management Center (TMC). The current system enables staff to coordinate all the
traffic signals along the main arterial roadways by utilizing time -of-day plans (timing
plans that run at specific times of the day) and traffic responsive timing plans (plans that
are implemented based on volume thresholds triggered by significant incidents).
An Adaptive Traffic Control System (ATCS) is a state-of-the-art traffic management
system that continuously monitors prevailing traffic conditions and provides real -time
traffic signal timing optimization by automatically adjusting signal timing parameters to
optimize traffic flow, reduce delays and improve the capability to respond to various
events that disrupt traffic flow and cause excessive congestion.
Diamond Bar Boulevard, Golden Springs Drive and Grand Avenue are three major
corridors within the City that experience the heaviest traffic impacts related to peak hour
demands and significant incidents. An ATCS to address both the continuous and
Support, including Contingency

unpredictable fluctuation in traffic and pedestrian demand along these major corridors
has been identified as the most effective way to reduce traffic delays, manage queue
lengths, enhance traffic free-flow, and reduce travel time and side street.
The City received a grant from the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation
Authority (Metro) as part of the Call for Projects to implement an ATCS along the three
(3) major arterials within the City. The project includes a total of 48 traffic signals listed
below:
Grand Avenue – Six (6) traffic signals between Golden Springs Drive and Longview
Drive
Diamond Bar Boulevard – 24 traffic signals between Mission/Temple and SR-57
Golden Springs Drive – 18 traffic signals between Temple/Avenida Rancheros
and Calbourne Drive
(See Attachment 1 – Project Area Map)
The scope of work developed for the ATCS Project can be summarized as follows:
1. Field assessment, modifications or upgrades to equip 48 signalized intersections
with compatible hardware and software components.
2. Installation, configuration and testing of ATCS and all related software and
equipment to ensure the solution works as a cohesive addition to existing
systems in the City.
3. Comprehensive training for City staff that will cover operations, administration,
and maintenance of the ATCS system.
4. A Before and After Study to quantify the effectiveness and performance of the
ATCS.
Per the RFP, a “Before and After” study is required to thoroughly evaluate the
system’s performance. The study to be performed by Siemens will include:
Capturing traffic flow during Incidents
Nextech BlueTOAD Bluetooth units that were installed in FY 17-18 have been
collecting travel and routing data along the three (3) corridors for a few months.
Siemens will utilize this data to determine the amount of traffic being diverted
from freeway incidents onto the 3 arterials. After implementation of ATCS, this
data will be compared to similar incidents that occur after the ATCS is
implemented to determine how well the ATCS is managing the non -recurring
congestion. Once the before and after data is analyzed by the vendor , additional
adjustment to the system can be made to ensure optimal performance.
Capturing impacts on side street traffic flow.
6.5
Packet Pg. 141
Along with improving traffic flow, Siemens will also look at how the
implementation of the system will impact delays to side streets. Siemens will
utilize Bluetooth data to determine Origin-Destination/most travel routes by
reviewing the turning volumes. This data will enable the vendor, with the help of
the City’s traffic consultant, to identify side streets that might need special timing
modifications such as streets near schools, shopping centers, recreation centers,
and multi-family housing complexes. Comparison of travel time data for these
routes will provide additional insight on how the ATCS is beneficial in managing
delay to side streets.
Additionalty, a separate “Before and After” study to determine end-to-end travel
and demonstrate “through” traffic improvements is being conducted by Kimley -
Horn.
End-to-end travel characteristics for each of the three study arterials
This study is essential to determine how the adaptive system is benefitting the
“through” traffic movement traveling along the three (3) arterials for the entire
stretch. “Before” information such as travel time, number of stops, delay and
average speeds along three (3) main arterials using floating car runs was
collected by Kimley-Horn during the initial stages of the Project. Kimley-Horn will
be collecting “After” conditions data post implementation and fine-tuning of the
ATCS system.
Vendor Proposals
On February 26, 2018, a Request for Proposal (RFP) to furnish, install, and integrate an
ATCS was released to qualified companies inviting them to submit proposals. On March
26, 2018, four (4) proposals were received. Siemens Industry, Inc. submitted the lowest
cost proposal for $949,000.00.
Proposals received are listed below:
1. Siemens Industry, Inc. $949,000.00
2. KLD Engineering, P.C. $1,339,979.56
3. TransCore $1,483,424.00
4. Rhythm Engineering $3,841,153.24
The wide spread in proposal amounts is due mainly to differences in the amount
proposed for the following aspects of the Project, including:
System and Detection Design
System Warranty and Maintenance
System Hardware Installation
Technical Support
Proposal Evaluation
The proposals were evaluated by a committee of staff and consultants utilizing the
6.5
Packet Pg. 142
following evaluation criteria and weights:
Vendor Qualifications 35 percent
Work Plan 20 percent
Training, On-Going Support and Technical Assistance 15 percent
Fee Schedule 20 percent
Overall Quality of Proposal/Project Schedule 10 percent
Vendor Demonstrations
The evaluation committee determined that two vendors should be invited for a detailed
demonstration of their ATCS. The two vendors were:
TransCore
Siemens Industry, Inc.
City Staff requested live demonstrations from TransCore and Siemens Industry, Inc.
and to focus on the functional requirements as the basis of their presentation. Each
vendor demonstrated their system’s capability, performance, and benefits of their
system. Also, the vendors were required to describe their approach to training,
demonstrate experience with Caltrans, and demonstrate their knowledge of the City’s
existing traffic conditions. The project managers from each company presented the
qualifications of key team members, work plans, staffing plans and their staff’s
experience with similar projects.
Vendor Selection
City Staff determined that Siemens Industry, Inc. offered the best solution. The ATCS
proposed by Siemens Industry, Inc. has an adaptive software product called Split Cycle
Offset Optimization Technique (SCOOT). For the SCOOT system to be effective
Siemens is including two additional software applications TACTICS and SEPAC.
TACTICS is a device level management system and typically runs the day-to-day traffic
plans as developed by the traffic engineer. SEPAC is a local controller software that is
focused on enhancing the performance of traffic signal controllers and is compatible
with Caltrans 2070 controllers and ATC controllers that are currently in use at all
signalized intersections within the City.
The proposal from Siemens can be summarized into five (5) main categories:
1. Detection Study and Installation: Siemens will conduct a detailed detection
study assessment to evaluate and investigate the intersections to facilitate or
improve operations with detector additions or modifications. Siemens will
provide and install any needed advanced d etectors as a part of this software
implementation to ensure the ATCS has the best data input possible. Based
upon review of lane diagram documents Siemens has proposed $142,500.00
as an estimate of the cost for any potentially suggested additions and/or
modifications of 75 detectors. These estimated “detector additions or
modifications” are intended to be enhancements above the systems minimum
6.5
Packet Pg. 143
requirements, which the City already meets subject to confirmation by the
study. Additionally, the City has other advanced detection technology already
installed (i.e., advanced loop detectors and cameras) which may reduce that
estimate.
2. Software, System Installation, Configuration, and Testing: Siemens is
proposing their software application suite that includes SC OOT, TACTICS,
and SEPAC. The installation will include concurrent activities of converting
intersection databases to SEPAC, configuring communications, installing
TACTICS, and converting the traffic responsive timing plans to prepare the
intersections for SCOOT control. The SCOOT server will be installed and
parameters configured to prepare for a smooth transition.
3. Training: Siemens will provide a comprehensive training program covering
the operations, administration, and maintenance of the system.
4. Plans, Studies and Engineering: Siemens will provide plans and
specifications for any required detector modifications, Before and After Study
and Detection Studies.
5. Software Maintenance: The software service agreement will provide the City
with technical support for the Siemens software suite at a fixed annual fee for
ten years.
A revised best, last and final offer, dated 9/14/2018 was submitted by Siemens Industry,
Inc. for $666,525.00 (Attachment 2).
Servers
Three servers are required to operate the ATCS. As required by the City’s Purchasing
Ordinance, a competitive bid process was conducted to find the best price for the three
required servers, as specified by Siemens (Attachment 3). The results of the
competitive bid process are as follows:
Bids received:
1. CDWG $48,310.79
2. PCMG $54,793.80
3. GovConnection $55,617.88
In conclusion, once installed, the ATCS will provide second -by-second traffic flow
monitoring and automatically adjust traffic signal timing in response to changing
conditions. This system will reduce travel times, minimize environmental impacts, and
provide an economic benefit by reducing vehicular delays and fuel consumption. The
Siemens ATCS uses advance detectors to provide queue estimation and arrival
predictions at the intersections, allowing for the system to quickly adjust to changing
traffic flow conditions, resulting in smoother traffic flow.
It is recommended that the City Council approve the Purchase and License Agreement
6.5
Packet Pg. 144
with Siemens Industry, Inc. and authorize the purchase of three (3) servers from CDWG
to implement the ATCS.

TITLE: FISCAL YEAR 2018-19 APPROPRIATION ADJUSTMENTS FOR
GENERAL FUND, SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS AND CAPITAL
PROJECT CARRYOVERS AND FISCAL YEAR 2017-18 FINAL
ADJUSTMENTS.
STRATEGIC
GOAL:
Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources
RECOMMENDATION:
A. Approve an appropriation from General Fund reserves of $260,341.46 to carry
forward appropriations from FY 2017-18 to FY 2018-19 for previously
encumbered goods and services;
B. Approve an appropriation from various Special Revenue Funds reserves of
$87,538.89 to carry forward appropriations from FY 2017 -18 to FY 2018-19 for
previously encumbered goods and services;
C. Approve a budget adjustment to carry forward capital project appropriations
which are decreased by $122,183.92;
D. Carry over the related purchase orders encumbered in FY 2017 -18 in the amount
of $1,638,724.32 to FY 2018-19; and,
E. Approve final budget adjustments to FY 2017 -18 for additional appropriations in
various accounts including $11,197.97 for the General Fund and $56,078.75 in
Special Revenue Funds.
BACKGROUND:
Each fiscal year, the City Council adopts a budget and appropriates the funds included
in that budget. The City’s budget policies state that prior year appropriations lapse
unless they are approved for carryover into the following fiscal year. Encumbrances for
previously ordered goods and services not received by June 30 th must be carried over
and re-appropriated in the new fiscal year. After FY 2017-18 was preliminarily closed,

Packet Pg. 305
staff was able to determine which capital projects were not completed by June 30 th and
should be carried over into the next fiscal year for completion.
DISCUSSION:
Carry Forward of General Fund Operating Appropriations
At the end of fiscal year 2017 -18 there were various goods and services encumbered
but not received or paid for and therefore the related purchase orders must be carried
over into FY 2018-19. The carryover of these appropriations is an appropriation of
General Fund reserves because as previously stated, all appropriations lapse and the
end of the prior fiscal year. These unexpended funds must be carried over and re -
appropriated in order to complete the projects that were in prog ress at June 30, 2018.
Attachment 1 lists operating expenditure purchase order carryovers and the related
budget adjustments in the amount of $260,341.46 for the General Fund.
Special Revenue and Internal Service Funds Carryover Appropriations
There were also various goods and services funded by special revenue funds and
internal service funds that were encumbered but not paid for by June 30, 2018. Some
of these items include professional services related to the update of the General Plan,
landscape services in the LLAD’s, and vehicles ordered for the City’s fleet. Attachment
2 lists the special funds and internal funds purchase order carryovers and related
budget adjustments. Purchase orders required to be carried over total $487,538.89 and
the additional appropriation totals $87,538.89.
Capital Project Carryover Appropriations
The amount of open purchase orders at June 30, 2018 requiring carry over into FY
2018-19 that are related to the Capital Improvement Project budget total $860,843.97.
When the budget for FY 2018-19 was approved by the City Council, it included new
appropriations for capital projects as well as estimated carryovers for existing projects.
Often, capital projects require more than one fiscal year for completion. Now that FY
2017-18 has been preliminarily closed, staff is able to compare the estimated carryover
appropriations already included in the FY 2018 -19 budget and the actual amount of
funds still required for each project. The amount already appropriated in the FY 2018 -
19 budget for carryover projects is $7,745,882.
Attachment 3 lists capital projects in progress at year-end. The schedule compares the
portion of the project that was estimated to be carried over into FY 2018 -19 as stated in
the adopted budget and what portion of the project was actually completed by June 30,
2018. The difference between the two is what is what requires a re -appropriation of
funds that were not included in the adopted budget. When comparing the estimated
carryover included in the FY 2018-19 budget and the amount required to be carried
over, the amounts differ by <$122,183.92>. Therefore, the total appropriations for
carryover projects needs to be reduced in FY 2018-19 by $122,183.92

Final FY 2017-18 Budget Adjustments
There is one department and a couple of funds that require additional appropriations at
June 30, 2018 due to unforeseen expenditures being incurred. The Finance
Department requires an additional appropriation ($11,197.97) due to less staff time
spent on transit related activities and salary costs being charged directly to the General
Fund.
Other funds that require additional appropriations at June 30, 2018 include the Waste
Hauler Fund ($6,078.75) and the Street Beautification Fund ($50,000) for additional
transfers to the CIP fund related to street projects.
