FP25508 MAY 20, 2025 May 20, 2025 Vivian Chen, Associate Engineer City of Diamond Bar 21810 Copley Drive Diamond Bar California 91765 Submitted via Planetbids Subject: RFP for the Design of Sycamore Canyon Park Lower Parking Lot Pedestrian Bridge Removal Project CIP No. FP25508 Dear Vivian, EPTDESIGN is pleased to submit our qualifications and fee proposal for the Sycamore Canyon Park Lower Parking Lot Pedestrian Bridge Removal project. After attending the site walk on May 14 and gaining a deeper understanding of the scope, we believe our team is exceptionally qualified to deliver this project with the technical care and environmental sensitivity it requires. With over 60 years of experience in parks and environmentally sensitive sites, our firm brings a deep knowledge of landscape architecture in complex settings. A recent relevant example is our work at the Mildred E. Mathias Botanical Garden at UCLA, where we successfully removed and replaced two footbridges as part of a broader stream restoration effort—demonstrating our familiarity with working in and around water. Additionally, our portfolio includes numerous park and open space projects involving the design of accessible pedestrian pathways from parking areas to plazas and trailheads. We have assembled a team with the expertise and availability to begin immediately and meet the City’s completion goal of April 2026. All conditions proposed herein shall remain valid for a period of at least ninety (90) calendar days. We appreciate the opportunity to support the City of Diamond Bar on this small but meaningful project. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. Sincerely, Matt Lysne, ASLA, PLA#4718 Principal, Technical Director EPTDESIGN 3 PROJECT UNDERSTANDING SYCAMORE CANYON PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE APPROACH & WORK PLAN At EPTDESIGN, our approach to park renovation projects is rooted in the belief that outdoor environments can be balanced between functionality, aesthetics, safety and sustainability. Our approach begins with a thorough understanding of the unique site requirements and the goals of the renovation Program. We prioritize collaboration with the City of Diamond Bar and the needs of the users to ensure walkway links are safe and feasible. Whether new construction or renovation, we incorporate Well-Being into all of our designs. We created a guide to assist us in the design process with the goal that we create spaces pleasing to individuals, fostering social connections, supporting physical activities, and benefiting the environment. Each project offers an opportunity to explore different areas of well-being based on the goals and objectives established during the project launch meeting and team check-ins. Regular reference to these considerations ensures the final design creates a balance of the 4 areas of well-being. This focus on Well-Being is especially crucial when designing for children and their parents at a park site. MENTAL We focus on creating enjoyable and harmonious experiences that foster a sense of belonging. SOCIAL Considerations emphasize connections through accessibility and inclusion. PHYSICAL Aspects involve designing spaces for active engagement and sensory experiences. ENVIRONMENTAL Ensures positive impacts to the environment, addressing factors like water quality, biodiversity and resilience. We always look to preserve existing vegetation and natural habitats. The Sycamore Canyon Park is a prime example of natural habitats that are close to high density urban areas. Safety is always important when designing how people navigate around vehicular traffic while possibly aligning paths to frame the natural beauty of the park. 4 The following is a general work plan for the project with milestones SCHEMATIC/DESIGN DEVELOPMENT PLAN PHASE 1.

OPTIONAL TASK 1: ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE The proposed Project is located at 22930 Golden Springs Drive, southeast corner of Golden Springs Drive and Sycamore Park, in the City of Diamond Bar, California. It is our understanding that the pedestrian bridge as part of the “Park Site,” was originally constructed in the 1960s. However, the existing pedestrian bridge has deteriorated significantly and would be removed for safety and accessibility improvements. We expect the proposed Project to qualify for a statutory exemption for pedestrian projects in accordance with Section 21080.25 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Based on the project details in the RFP, we expect the project to qualify for an exemption. The first possibility is a Statutory Exemption in accordance with Section 21080.25 of the State CEQA Guidelines which provides exemptions for pedestrian projects. We would recommend pursuing this option as it is specific to transit and pedestrian improvements. Impact Sciences will support the team to complete the required CEQA documentation. Our fee assumes that we will prepare an exemption for the project, in accordance with the requirements of Section 21080.25 applicable to projects under $100 million. We will prepare a memorandum for integration into the City Council staff report that documents the ways in which the project qualifies for a statutory exemption under California Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 21080.25(a)-(e). We will include any required exhibits, including but not limited to, project area maps and planning-level cost opinions. If the project does not meet the requirements of Section 21080.25, we will pursue a Categorical Exemption as an alternative. The project could qualify under Class 1 (Existing Facilities) or Class 3 (Small Structures). The Categorical Exemption will demonstrate that the project meets the requirements as provided in Section 15300 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Further, as Classes 1 and 3 are limited by location, the exceptions to these exemptions, including location would be analyzed. We will also work with the City to determine whether it is required or preferred to pursue alternative CEQA documentation such as a Negative Declaration and Mitigated Negative Declaration. Should a more complex level of documentation be required or desired, we will work with the City to determine cost and level of effort. OPTIONAL TASK 2: LAND SURVEYING WORK Guida will use pre-established control based upon the California Coordinate System and Local County/City Benchmarks (unless otherwise directed by the Client). Ground Survey Guida will survey all improvements within survey extents. Locate all existing site walls, including the top of wall and finish grade elevation, provide all corners and height changes. Locate all fencing including posts at each gate, changes in direction and corners. Provide diameter of posts for anything larger than 6” and fence line shall be associated with estimated heights. Transitions of fence height shall be noted at each occurrence. Locate ramps, stairs, and railings. Show top of ramp and bottom of ramp elevations and railing post locations. Show all corners of landing areas. Locate all existing trees, including caliper size, location of trunk and finish grade at trunk as well as improvements under canopies. Locate all existing drains, catch basins, etc. and finish grade at each. If a catch basin or manhole is located in the ground survey area, survey the size, invert elevation along with pipe sizes coming in and out. Locate all pull boxes, vaults, electrical, telecom, etc. including irrigation. Survey all top of curb, front of curb, back of curb, finish surface, finish grade, and flowline elevations. Locate all utilities (aboveground appurtenances) within detailed survey areas including post size, pad elevations and identification with estimated heights. 5 PROJECT TEAM EPTDESIGN INTRODUCTION EPTDESIGN is a dynamic, award-winning, full-service landscape architecture firm with studios across Southern California.

PIERCE BOTANICAL GARDEN LOS ANGELES, CA Founded shortly after the opening of the campus in 1929, the 7.5-acre Mildred E. Mathias Botanical Garden at UCLA was conceived as an outdoor classroom, research facility, and public garden. The goal of the garden is to promote botanical knowledge through curated collections that aim to inspire environmental and cultural appreciation of plants. Our project saw the demolition and replacement of the existing stream with a new, concrete-lined, recirculating stream system that reduces water consumption, captures runoff, and recycles water for garden irrigation all while preserving the existing trees of importance to the botanic garden. ZAMORA PARK EL MONTE, CA The new design overlay for Zamora Park tells the story of El Monte’s long history as a spot where waters and trails converge—creating a wooded, shaded, and green destination amidst an otherwise arid landscape. This storyline guides the physical layout of water play, sports fields, community spaces, climate-appropriate planting, and playground amenities. Beneath the venerated canopies of the park’s existing trees, a new forest grows, provides shade, connects, and inspires generations to come. 11TH AVENUE FAMILY PARK LOS ANGELES, CA EPTDESIGN is leading the renovation of 11th Avenue Family Park, a 0.27-acre site in South LA’s Hyde Park neighborhood.

MATHIAS BOTANICAL GARDEN LOS ANGELES, CA Founded shortly after the opening of the campus in 1929, the 7.5-acre Mildred E. Mathias Botanical Garden at UCLA was conceived as an outdoor classroom, research facility, and public garden. The goal of the garden is to promote botanical knowledge through curated collections that aim to inspire environmental and cultural appreciation of plants. Our project saw the demolition and replacement of the existing stream with a new, concrete- lined, recirculating stream system that reduces water consumption, captures runoff, and recycles water for garden irrigation all while preserving the existing trees of importance to the botanic garden. 16 AGENCY CITY OF EL MONTE, THE TRUST FOR PUBLIC LAND SIZE 4.48 ACRES CONTRACT AMOUNT $249,920 PROJECT COST $4.8M PROJECT COMPLETION CURRENTLY IN CONSTRUCTION, ESTIMATED COMPLETION 12/2025 PROJECT MANAGER ELIZABETH COSTA (MATT LYSNE IS PRINCIPAL/TECHNICAL DIRECTOR) SUBCONSULTANTS PSOMAS (CIVIL), ECCO ENGINEERING (ELECTRICAL), EARTH SYSTEMS (GEOTECHNICAL) ZAMORA PARK EL MONTE, CA Zamora Park is being reimagined as a vital and vibrant destination that reflects El Monte’s unique history and serves the evolving needs of its community. Once underutilized and outdated, the 4.5-acre park is undergoing a comprehensive transformation. Diseased and aging trees are being removed and replaced, over 60,000 square feet of turf is being converted to more sustainable uses, and new low-impact amenities—including walking paths, updated playgrounds, and gathering spaces—will take shape. The design draws inspiration from El Monte’s identity as a historic place where waters and trails once converged, guiding the layout of water play areas, sports fields, shaded groves, and native planting zones. Beneath the legacy canopies of mature trees, a renewed forest begins to take root—connecting people, cooling the neighborhood, and anchoring a sense of place. More than just an upgrade, this is a reinvestment in the park’s role as a safe, inclusive, and enduring public space—one that celebrates nature, community, and the spirit of renewal. AGENCY THE LOS ANGELES ARBORETUM FOUNDATION, LA COUNTRY REC AND PARK SIZE 2.44 ACRES CONTRACT AMOUNT $705,033 PROJECT COST $8.2M PROJECT COMPLETION JUNE 2023 PROJECT MANAGER PAULINA FORGETTE (MATT LYSNE WAS TECHNICAL DIRECTOR, CHRIS VALENZUELA WAS PROJECT CAPTAIN) SUBCONSULTANTS WARE MALCOMB (CIVIL), HUNT DESIGN (ENVIRONMENTAL GRAPHICS), STRUCTURAL FOCUS (STRUCTURAL), P2S (ELECTRICAL) LA ARBORETUM VISITOR PLAZA ARCADIA, CA The Los Angeles Arboretum Visitor Plaza renovation transforms the entry experience to uncover the historic mid-century design that has been hidden beneath years of piecemeal alterations. The new plaza solves a host of challenges while creating a welcoming arrival sequence. The reimagined experience includes a welcome plaza with demonstration gardens, diverse seating options, a variety of donor opportunities, and ample flexible space. Demonstration gardens introduce low-water planting and low impact development and point visitors to a larger network of interpretive gardens throughout the Arboretum through a thoughtfully curated system of signage and displays. Accessibility was a key focus of the renovation; the previous maze of ramps and stairs has been replaced by gently sloped paths that maintain a grade of less than 5%, eliminating the need for railings and ensuring that all visitors can enjoy the same inclusive and seamless arrival experience. 17 PROGRAM SCHEDULING 2025 2026 MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC JAN FEB MAR TASK NTP/TEAM SITE VISIT/ RESEARCH 50% SD/DD PRESENTATION 100% SD/DD SUBMITTAL 50% CD SUBMITTAL 100% CD SUBMITTAL/COST ESTIMATE CITY PLAN CHECK CONTRACTOR BIDDING AWARD & CONTRACTS CONSTRUCTION START CONSTRUCTION END 18 RESOURCE REQUIREMENTS/FEE SCHEDULE SCOPE OF WORK A.
