such drawings for any project other than the PROJECT described herein.
E. Engineer's Personnel at Construction Site
(1) The presence or duties of the ENGINEER's personnel at a construction site,
whether as on-site representatives or otherwise, do not make the ENGINEER or
its personnel in any way responsible for those duties that belong to the CITY
and/or the CITY's construction contractors or other entities, and do not relieve
the construction contractors or any other entity of their obligations, duties, and
responsibilities, including, but not limited to, all construction methods, means,
techniques, sequences, and procedures necessary for coordinating and
completing all portions of the construction work in accordance with the
AGREEMENT Documents and any health or safety precautions required by

responsibility to visit the construction site to become familiar with the progress
or quality of the completed work on the PROJECT or to determine, in general, if
the work on the PROJECT is being performed in a manner indicating that the
PROJECT, when completed, will be in accordance with the AGREEMENT
Documents, nor shall anything in the AGREEMENT Documents or this
AGREEMENT between CITY and ENGINEER be construed as requiring
ENGINEER to make exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to discover
latent defects in the work or otherwise check the quality or quantity of the work
on the PROJECT. If the ENGINEER makes on-site observation(s) of a
deviation from the AGREEMENT Documents, the ENGINEER shall inform the
CITY.
(3) When professional certification of performance or characteristics of materials,
systems or equipment is reasonably required to perform the services set forth in
the Scope of Services, the ENGINEER shall be entitled to rely upon such
certification to establish materials, systems or equipment and performance
criteria to be required in the AGREEMENT Documents.
F. Opinions of Probable Cost, Financial Considerations, and Schedules

or structures that may affect operation or maintenance costs; competitive
bidding procedures and market conditions; time or quality of performance by
third parties; quality, type, management, or direction of operating personnel; and
other economic and operational factors that may materially affect the ultimate
PROJECT cost or schedule. Therefore, the ENGINEER makes no warranty
that the CITY's actual PROJECT costs, financial aspects, economic feasibility,
or schedules will not vary from the ENGINEER's opinions, analyses, projections,
or estimates.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
WEST HICKORY STREET DRAINAGE, PAVING ANDSIDEWALKS
BASIC SERVICES
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The scope set forth herein defines the work to be performed by the ENGINEER in completing the
project. Both the CITY and ENGINEER have attempted to clearly define the work to be
performed and address the needs of the Project.
The scope of the project includes the following, all on W. Hickory Street:
Part I
Storm drain studybetween Bonnie Brae and Carroll Blvd.
Part II
Reconstruction of paving and sidewalks between Welch and Carroll Blvd.
Pedestrian lighting on the north side of W. Hickory from Welch to Carroll Blvd.
PART I SCOPE OF WORK
The general purpose of Part I, the storm drain study,is to evaluate the storm drain systemsalong
Hickory Street between Carroll Blvd. and Bonnie Brae, with two objectives in mind. First is to
determine the impacts of replacing existing inlets with larger inlets and/or adding inlets. The
second is to determine what the systemsshould look likeif rebuilt to meet current City of Denton
design standards.It appears there are threeprimary storm drain systems within the limits of the
study area. They are:
1.Ave G, Fouts, Miller
This system begins at Alamo Place and runs down Ave G to Louise Street and down Ave
H to discharge into a channel south of Prairie Street, a total of approximately 3,200 feet.
Another leg of this system begins on Oak Street and Hickory Street, runs down Ave F and
Stella to Ave G to Prairie Street, where it joins the first leg, a total of approximately 4,100
2.Ave B, Fry, Welch
This system begins in several locations, including Mulberry, Oak, Ave G, and Fry Street,
and discharges on Bernard Street at an open channel at the headwaters of Trib PEC-4.
3.Denton, Williams
This system begins at Oak and Denton and follows Hickory east to the Carroll intersection,
then to the open channel PEC-4.
In order to accomplish these objectives, we propose the following tasks:
Attachment A-Page 1of 9
DocuSign Envelope ID: 5C6F1A41-A440-485E-BDEF-F76244A68929
Develop Limited As-Builts in Field
1.Request as-built information fromCity staff.
2.If as-builts are not available, we will visit the site to tie manholes and inlets by GPS,
identify pipe sizes and measure approximate depths. This will not be a design survey, but
will be approximate only, using GPS Network control.If as-builts are available, see
Additional Services. In that event, this item will be replaced with the Additional Services
scope of work.
Initial Report
3.Develop hydrology for each of the existing storm drain systems in accordance with the
current City of Denton Stormwater Design Criteria Manual.
4.Develop a hydraulic model of each of the three systemsin StormCad, based on the as-
builts obtained as described above or in Additional Services.
5.Evaluate the existing systemsin the vicinity of Hickory Street using the developed
hydrology to determine system capacity and identify constraints and choke points. This
evaluation will be completed using StormCad.This analysis will address only those
portions of each system that directly impact the inlets on Hickory Street, and will extend to
the outfall of the system. This analysisis intended only to support the analysis of the
impacts of changes to theinlets on Hickory Street.
6.Re-evaluate these systems using larger inlets and/or additional inlets on Hickory Street to
determine the impacts on the systems, and recommend remedies if there are adverse
impacts on the systems.Those remedies could include restrictor plates at the inlets,
larger inlet leads, or other modifications. Again, this analysis will only apply to those
portions of the system directly impacted by the inlets on Hickory Street.
7.Prepare a brief Initial Report outlining the impacts of the proposed inlet modifications on
the storm drain systems as described above.
Future CIP Recommendations
8.Develop a conceptual plan for a replacement system to convey the 100-year storm per
current City of Denton design criteria. This will be used for identifying the need for a future
CIP project. In order to be a little conservative, the conceptual plan will assume all flow to
be captured in the underground system without bypass, meeting street spread limits per
the criteria. Low points and intersection flow constraints will likely make this type of
analysis necessary anyway. This evaluation will also be completed using StormCad.This
analysis will extend downstream to the outfall of the systems and will include all the
identifiable segments of these systems.
9.Prepare cost estimates for the replacement systemsdeveloped in task 8above.
10.Prepare a brief report describing the findings of the analysis. The report will include a
drainage area map, calculations, recommendations, a schematic of the existing systems,
and a schematic of recommended replacement systems.
Attachment A-Page 2of 9
DocuSign Envelope ID: 5C6F1A41-A440-485E-BDEF-F76244A68929
ADDITIONAL SERVICES
1.If as-built information is generally available, compile that information for field verification.
2.Verify pipe sizes and configuration in the field (by observationand GPS, not by detailed
field survey).
Assumptions and Clarifications
The following assumptions were used by the ENGINEER for the preparation of this scope of Basic
Services:
No construction plans will be prepared as part of the scope of this agreement.
It is assumed that no as-built informationwill be available, and it will need to be developed
in the fieldby locating and measuring manholes and inlets. This effort is reflected in the
Basic Services. If as-built information is available, it will be field verified. This effort is
reflected in the Additional Services. These tasks are generally mutually exclusive. It is
anticipated that the as-builts will either be obtained from the City and verified, or will be
developed in the field, but not both.
No field surveying will be conducted as partof the scope of this agreement, though survey
crews will be used to assist with fieldverification of as-builts or with field development of
existing conditions if as-builts are not available.
Once as-built information has been obtained and verified, or developed in the field, it will
be made available to the City for use in the City GIS system.
Part I Deliverables
As-built information in a format suitable for use in the City GIS system.
An Initial Reportoutlining the impact on the storm drain systems of using larger (or more)
inlets on Hickory Street.
AFinal Report with calculations andrecommendations for future CIP replacement, along
with a drainage area map and a schematic of the existing storm drain, the recommended
replacement systems, and cost estimates.

PART II SCOPE OF WORK
The general scope of Part II is to prepare construction plans for reconstruction of pavement,
curbs, sidewalks and pedestrian lighting between Welch Street and Carroll Blvd. The purpose is
to provide improved pedestrian access along the north side of W. Hickory within the project limits
(Welch Street to Carroll Blvd.) as part of a street reconstruction project. This will be accomplished
by removing the north curb and narrowing the street, maintaining two 11 travel lanes, a bike lane
on the south side of the street and parallel parking along the north side of the street. A 5-foot
sidewalk will be placed adjacent to the north curb, in accordance with Texas Accessibility
Standards and PROWAG criteria, including replacement of accessible ramps. Given the
condition of many of the steps on the residential lead walks and the retaining walls along the right-
of-way, we expect that most, if not all, of those retaining walls and lead walk steps will require
replacement or modification, especially in light of the change of the curb location and possible
change of the curb elevation. Driveway approaches, and portions of some driveways, will require
reconstruction to match the new curb location and grade.
Paving and Sidewalk Construction Plans
Construction plans will be prepared for public bidding, and will include:
Cover sheet
General notes and typical sections
Demolition plan
Street reconstruction plans
Driveway profiles
Storm drain plans (inlet relocations and lead lines only)
Striping and signing plans
Accessible ramp layoutswith grading
Lead walks and retaining wallplans
Detail sheets as appropriate
Traffic control criteria (traffic control plans to be submitted by the contractor)
Bid documents (Exhibits 1 and 3) for IFB procurement
Pedestrian Lighting Plans
Pedestrian lighting plans will be prepared by the ENGINEER, and will include the following:
1.Site visit to identify specific light pole locations and check for utility conflicts, based on the
Level B SUE.
2.Coordinate electrical service locations with utility company.
3.Determine pull box and conduit requirements.
4.Prepare pedestrian lighting pole (foundation) layouts, tabulate quantities.
5.Identify / Develop standards and Details.
6.Preliminary and Final submittal reviews.
Attachment A-Page 4of 9
DocuSign Envelope ID: 5C6F1A41-A440-485E-BDEF-F76244A68929
7.Assemble Specifications, construction documents, project coordination.
8.Construction phase services,consisting of shop drawing reviews and respond to
Contractor questions regarding design intent or construction issues.
Level B Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE)
The following represents the general understanding between the Client and Engineer regarding
the basis and/or limitations under which these subsurface utility designating and/or locating
services are provided:
1.These services will be conducted and provided in general compliance with CI/ASCE 38-02
(Standard Guidelines for the Collection and Depiction of Existing Subsurface Utility Data).
This standard establishes and defines four quality levels for data collection that are briefly
described as:
Quality Level D (QL-D)Generally QL-D indicates information collected or derived
from research of existing records and/or oral discussions.
Quality Level C ( QL-C)-Generally QL-C indicates information obtained by
surveying and plotting visible above-ground utility features and by using professional
judgment in correlating this information to QL-D information. Incorporates QL-D
information. (Limited in this scope, this scope is to cover underground utility crossings)
Quality Level B (QL-B)Generally QL-B, also known as designating indicates
information obtained through the application of appropriate surface geophysical
methods to determine the existence and approximate horizontal position of subsurface
utilities. Quality level B data should be reproducible by surface geophysics at any
point of their depiction. This information is surveyed to applicable tolerances defined
by the project and reduced onto plan documents. Incorporates QL-D & QL-C
information.
Quality Level A (QL-A)-Generally QL-A, also known as locating, indicates the
precise horizontal and vertical location of utilities obtained by the actual exposure (or
verification of previously exposed and surveyed utilities) and subsequent
measurement of subsurface utilities, at a specific point. Incorporates QL-D QL-C &
QL-B information. NOT APPLICABLE
2.These services are for the purpose of aiding the design of the subject project by providing
information related to subsurface utilities in order to allow potential utility conflicts to be
minimized or eliminated.
3.The Engineer will provide services that meet the standard of care for existing subsurface
utility location and mapping as established in CI/ASCE 38-02 by exercising due diligence
with regard to records research and acquisition of utility information, including visually
inspecting the work area for evidenceof utilities and reviewing the available utility record
information from the various utility owners. However, the Engineer makes no guarantee
that all utilities can or will be identified and shown as there still may be utilities within the
project area that are undetectable or unknown.
4.Facilities that are discovered through field investigative efforts by the Engineer but no plan
records or ownership data can be identified will be hereafter referred to as unknown
utilities. As part of these services, the Engineer will provide QL-C information in the
project deliverables for all unknown utilities that may be identified in the field investigation
of the project. Designating and/or locating unknown utilities will typically not be part of the
Attachment A-Page 5of 9
DocuSign Envelope ID: 5C6F1A41-A440-485E-BDEF-F76244A68929
initial scope of work but depending on the clients needs can be added as additional work
to address concerns of the project impacts of unknown facilities.
5.Ground penetrating radar will not be used as a part of the field investigation of the project
site unless that use has been specifically addressed with the scope of services described
herein.
6.The documented results produced by these services represent a professional opinion and
interpretation based upon record information and/or field evidence. These results may be
affected by a variety of existing site conditions, including soil content, depth of the utility,
density of utility clusters, and electro-magnetic characteristics of the targeted utilities.
Also, the lack of and/or poor condition of a trace wire for non-conductive materials such as
PVC, HDPE, etc. in most cases will make the successful detection and location of the
utility unlikely.
7.The Engineer will apply professional judgment to determine which utilities require
additional field effort and/or methods to properly designate and/or locate, most commonly
when record drawings are not available. In such cases, the Engineer will provide a
recommendation or request for additional services to the Client. Among other methods, a
detectable duct rodder or other conductor may be introduced into the line to enable the
designation of the utility. This method is dependent upon approval by the utility owner, as
well as access to, size and condition of the utility.
8.None of these services are intended to and should not be understood to relieve the Client
or others from the responsibility to comply with the statutory requirements related to
notifying the proper one-call system(s) in advance of any and all excavation, grading
and/or construction within the project site.
The scope of subsurface utility designating and/or locating services for this project is described
below. Survey services to tie utility crossing marks and/or identifiers placed during the subsurface
utility designating and/or locating effort will be provided in this contract.
This work includes:
1.Requesting utility records on all crossing utilities from the Client, public utilities and private
utility companies known to provide service within the project area, as well as other
sources, in an effort to develop a comprehensive inventory of utility systems likely to be
encountered. Record documents may include construction plans, system diagrams,
distribution maps, transmission maps, geographic information system data, as well as oral
descriptions of the existing systems. Record information will not be used as a substitute
for field location methods unless it is determined to be the most appropriate method for
depicting the utilities at the site. The depiction of utilities from records (QL-C or D) will
be based on thorough field and office activities and shall be based on the most reliable
indication of position available.
2.Investigating all utility systems shown on the record drawings that are included within the
project site. Visible surface featuresand appurtenances of subsurface utilities found
within the project site will also be evaluated. Using appropriate surface geophysical
methods, TNP will search for detectible indications of the location of anticipated
subsurface utilities.
3.Marking all locations that can be validated, using paint, flags or other devices. Though
paint is typically used to mark utilities, we intend to use chalk because this area is a
historical district and chalk washes off quickly.
Attachment A-Page 6of 9
DocuSign Envelope ID: 5C6F1A41-A440-485E-BDEF-F76244A68929
4.Preparing documentation of the utilities encountered and marked, including their general
location, orientation, type & size, if known.
5.Deliverables, based on ASCE Standard 38-02, will be signed and sealed by a Professional
Engineer registered in the State of Texas, and will consist of an AutoCad DWG 2d (DGN)
file depicting all Sub-surface Utilities Designated, with a PDF of the same signed and
sealed by a Professional Engineer registered in the State of Texas and ACSII Point List.
Survey to Establish North Right-of-Way Line
Provide all office and field work necessary to establish the North right-of-way line of West
Hickory Street from Welch to Carroll. Sufficient research will be performed to develop a
working sketch of the plat, deed and ROW information available of record. Property
corners willbe located on the ground and analyzed by a Registered Professional Land
Survey for final determination and placement of the North right-of-way line. Deliverables
will include a Base Map in AutoCAD Civil 3D format, depicting the deed/plat information
used, as well as the final location of said right-of-way line.
Bid Support
1.ENGINEER will provide to the CITY a Notice to Bidders for advertisement of the project for
bid. The CITY shall bear the cost of advertisement. The ENGINEER shall provide up to 5
setsof construction plans, specifications and contract documents for use in obtaining bids,
awarding contracts, and constructing the project. Additional sets of plans required will be
considered Additional Services and will be paid for by the CITY at commercial printing
rates. The CITY shall be responsible for dispersing all plans and specifications from its
purchasing department to prospective bidders.
2.ENGINEER will provide technical support to the CITY during the Bidding & Contract
Award phase by responding to bidder and CITY questions, attending a Pre-Bid meeting (if
needed), reviewing the bids, reviewing bidder qualifications and references, and making a
recommendation of award to the CITY. ENGINEER will prepare necessary addenda
during the bidding phase for distribution by the City of Denton Purchasing Department.
Construction Support
1.ENGINEER will attend a Pre-Construction meeting to support City staff.
2.ENGINEER will review shop drawings and submittals as necessary.
3.ENGINEER will respond to questions from the City during construction, to clarify the
design intent.
4.ENGINEER will conduct up to four site visits at the direction of the City, to assist with
clarification of the plans and to assess site conditions.
5.All construction support services will be performed at the direction of the City, and will be
compensated on an hourly basisin accordance with Attachment C. The fee shown in
Attachment A for Construction Support is an estimateonly, and could be exceeded during
the course of construction.
Attachment A-Page 7of 9

Assumptions and Clarifications
The following assumptions were used by the ENGINEER for the preparation of this scope of Basic
Services:
The street section will generally consist of two 11 travel lanes, a 6 bike lane, an 8 parking
lane, and a 5 sidewalk on the north side of the road.
Pavement sections will be provided by the City, and no geotechnical investigation will be
completed as part of the scope of this project. It is our understanding that this project
comprises just one phase of the overall W. Hickory Street reconstruction project, and that
pavement sections have already been identified.
Topographic survey developed for previous City of Dentonprojects will be used as a base
for these plans. However, limitedadditional topographic survey may be needed to
complete the design, where the current topo isdetailed enough to support accessible
route design. Additional topographic survey will only be completed if necessary.Sufficient
boundary work will be done to identify the north right-of-way line of Hickory Street.
A Level B Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) investigation will be performed. No Level
A test holes are anticipated. Due to the historic nature of the area, located utilities will be
marked with chalk rather than paint.
Because the entire north curb will be replaced in a new location, street profiles will be
prepared for that north curb. Only damaged portions of the south curb will be replaced.
Plans will be drawn at 1=20 scale on 22x34 plan sheets.
The ENGINEER will not prepare Traffic Control Plans. Criteria will be provided to the
contractor identifying requirements of the Traffic Control Plan. The contractor will prepare
and submit a Traffic Control Plan for review and approval by the City and the ENGINEER.
The Engineer will walk the project with the City to participate in the identification of curbs to
be replaced.
No signal design or modification of existing signal timing is a part of the scope of this
agreement. The intent will be to cover existing signals when the conflict with the traffic
control during construction and place stop signs to control the intersections.
Pedestrian lighting will be along the north side of W. Hickory only, and will be designed
using poles and fixtures similar to the pedestrian lighting on the south side of W. Hickory.
It is understood that these construction plans will not include design or selection of light
poles or fixtures, and that the installation of the light poles and electrical wiring will be
accomplished by DME. The construction to becompleted using these plans will consist
only of installing light pole foundations, placing conduit and installing pull boxes.
The pedestrian lighting plans will not include review of light pole orfixture options,
photometrics, development of voltage drop calculations and circuits, or determination of
wiring or electrical service requirements.Any or all of these tasks can be added as
additional services if needed.
Part II Deliverables
Prior to the formal plan submittals outlined below, a Preliminary Design Review meeting will
be conducted with City staff to review working drawings for the project. This preliminary
design meeting will be held after preliminary alignments and grades are established. Design
Attachment A-Page 8of 9
DocuSign Envelope ID: 5C6F1A41-A440-485E-BDEF-F76244A68929
concerns and parameters will be discussed, and guidelines provided by staff for completion of
the design.
Based on the Preliminary Design Review meeting, the ENGINEER will prepare and submit 3
copies of the preliminary design plans (approximately 75%) to the City for review, along with
preliminary quantities. Preliminary plans will include all sheets except standard details.
Proposed construction will be shown in both plan and profile (where appropriate) with
sufficient annotation to convey the design intent and identify conflicts or other issues that
would affect the design.
The City will review the preliminary plans and present comments and questions to the
ENGINEER in a Design Review meeting.
Based on the Design Review meeting and the reviewed preliminary plans, the ENGINEER will
proceed with final design. The ENGINEER will submit 3 copies of the final design plans (95%)
to the City for final review, along with updated quantitiesand a construction cost estimate.
Final plans will include completed versions of all necessary plan sheets, complete andready
for construction (but without seals and signatures), pending final review comments from the
City.
After the Design Review meeting, the ENGINEER will provide electronic (pdf) sets of plans to
appropriate utility companies for their use in planning their own relocations, if needed.
The ENGINEER will complete the plans and prepare them for construction based on City staff
comments from the final review. All final plans will be sealed and signed by a Professional
Engineer registered in the State of Texas.
ITEMS TO BE PROVIDED BY CITY TO THE ENGINEER
The CITY or the CITYs designee will provide or make available to, or assist the ENGINEER in
obtaining the following services, information and materials upon request:
1.Available past studies, drainage reports,and mapping relative to the project.
2.As-built records of existing storm drain systems.

Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure
ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, City of Denton (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide to
you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for
providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through your DocuSign, Inc.
(DocuSign) Express user account. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly,
and if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to these terms
and conditions, please confirm your agreement by clicking the 'I agree' button at the bottom of
this document.
Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available
electronically to you by us. For such copies, as long as you are an authorized user of the
DocuSign system you will have the ability to download and print any documents we send to you
through your DocuSign user account for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such
documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of
any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a $0.00 per-page fee. You may
request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time
change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures
only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and
disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures
electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the
speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to
you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format,
and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such
paper notices or disclosures. To indicate to us that you are changing your mind, you must
withdraw your consent using the DocuSign 'Withdraw Consent' form on the signing page of your
DocuSign account. This will indicate to us that you have withdrawn your consent to receive
required notices and disclosures electronically from us and you will no longer be able to use your
DocuSign Express user account to receive required notices and consents electronically from us
or to sign electronically documents from us.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide
electronically to you through your DocuSign user account all required notices, disclosures,
authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or
made available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of
you inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required
notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given
us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through
the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as
described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the
consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures
electronically from us.
How to contact City of Denton:
You may contact us to let us know of your changes as to how we may contact you electronically,

address. We do not require any other information from you to change your email address..
In addition, you must notify DocuSign, Inc to arrange for your new email address to be reflected
in your DocuSign account by following the process for changing e-mail in DocuSign.
To request paper copies from City of Denton

by us to you electronically, you must send us an e-mail to purchasing@cityofdenton.com and in

telephone number. We will bill you for any fees at that time, if any.

page, select the check-box indicating you wish to withdraw your consent, or you may;
