With respect to those claims arising from a professional error or omission, Consultant shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City (including its elected officials, officers, employees, and volunteers) from all claims, losses, and damages arising from the professionally negligent acts, errors or omissions of Consultant, however, the cost to defend charged to Consultant shall not exceed Consultant’s proportionate percentage of fault. 36 Consulting Services Agreement between City of Dublin and November 3, 2026 Griffin Structures, Inc. for Fire Station Facility Condition Assessment Services Page 10 of 18 Consultant's obligation under this section does not extend to that portion of a claim caused in whole or in part by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the City.

The Consultant’s obligation to defend and indemnify shall not be excused because of the Consultant’s inability to evaluate Liability or because the Consultant evaluates Liability and determines that the Consultant is not liable to the claimant. The Consultant must respond within 30 days to the tender of any claim for defense and indemnity by the City. If the Consultant fails to accept or reject a tender of defense and indemnity within 30 days, in addition to any other remedy authorized by law, so much of the money due the Consultant under and by virtue of this Agreement as shall reasonably be considered necessary by the City, may be retained by the City until disposition has been made of the claim or suit for damages, or until the Consultant accepts or rejects the tender of defense, whichever occurs first.

Inspect and assess the following: i. Structural Systems: Foundation, load-bearing elements, roof structures, and any signs of movement or deterioration ii. Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP): Age, performance, code compliance, energy efficiency, and maintainability of all building systems, including Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC), lighting, water heating, power distribution, backup power, and plumbing systems iii. Life Safety and Fire Protection: Fire alarms, suppression systems, exiting systems, smoke control, and compliance with applicable fire codes iv. Accessibility: Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance across interior and exterior spaces, including parking, entries, restrooms, and signage v. Environmental Considerations: Energy performance, building envelope performance, insulation, and potential for sustainability improvements vi. Health and Safety: Evaluation of exposure risks, such as air quality, material conditions, and physical hazards vii. Site and Building Security: Access control systems, surveillance, perimeter security, fencing, lighting, and emergency egress Document evaluations in a uniform system rating format and identify the current condition, estimated remaining useful life, and repair/replacement priorities for each component. Findings from the FCA will support long- range planning and capital investment decisions. b. Space Needs Assessment (SNA): Analyze each station for how well its current spatial layout aligns with modern fire service needs and projected growth. This will include a comprehensive space utilization analysis and needs projection, covering: i. Functional Space Analysis: Comparison of existing square footage and spatial allocations against NFPA standards and operational best practices ii. Staffing and Operations: Review of fire administration, company staffing, paramedic needs, reserve firefighter capacity, and support personnel to establish a baseline for required space allocation iii. Shift-Based Planning: Incorporation of 24-hour shift operations, bunk and locker needs, turnout gear storage, and kitchen/dayroom utilization iv. Apparatus and Equipment Accommodation: Evaluation of current and future apparatus bay sizing, including tandem depths, reserve engine space, specialty apparatus needs, equipment storage, and bay clearance 47 Consulting Services Agreement between City of Dublin and November 3, 2026 Griffin Structures, Inc. for Fire Station Facility Condition Assessment ServicesExhibit A – Page 3 of 6 v. Inclusivity and Wellness: Assessment of gender equity, inclusive restroom and bunk layouts, fitness rooms, decontamination areas, and wellness amenities vi. Zoning and Cross-Contamination: Review of station zoning to ensure hot, warm, and cold zones are clearly delineated to prevent contaminant crossover into living quarters, with attention to Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)/laundry placement and airflow control Findings from the SNA will inform whether current facilities are right-sized or if expansion, renovation, or reconstruction is required to meet both current demands and future operational goals. 3. Feasibility Analysis and Recommendations: With the FCA and SNA in hand, work closely with the City and ACFD to develop actionable, cost-informed recommendations for each fire station. This task will analyze feasibility, continuity of operations, and total project costs to support near-term and long-term capital decisions. a. Renovation vs. Reconstruction Analysis: Provide a detailed feasibility analysis that compares renovation/expansion against full station reconstruction. This includes: i. Functional and financial comparisons based on assessment results ii. Identification of site constraints and opportunities (e.g., expansion limitations, adjacency to roadways) iii. Assessment of operational continuity strategies during construction, including temporary fire station options, phasing approaches, and potential staging locations iv. Preliminary project timeline forecasts for each option, helping the City understand schedule impacts, sequencing, and critical path issues Help establish escalation factors based on projected delivery timelines to maintain realistic cost planning over time. b. Project Budget and Cost Estimating: Using the preferred approach(es) for each site, prepare planning-level cost estimates that include: i. Construction Costs: Building construction, site development, utilities, demolition (if applicable), and escalation ii.

As the City proactively evaluates the condition, functionality, and long-term viability of its fire facilities, we are honored to bring our statewide fire station and public-sector leadership expertise to support this critical initiative. We understand the City is seeking a qualified partner to evaluate the physical conditions, operational functionality, and future capacity of its existing fire stations. Our approach includes a full Facilities Condition Assessment (FCA), detailed space utilization studies, operational zoning and contamination review, and planning-level feasibility and cost analysis—culminating into clear, actionable recommendations. Our team will work closely with City staff and the Alameda County Fire Department to ensure our evaluations and recommendations support both current and long-term needs. Our local partner based in Pleasanton, Bureau Veritas, will lead the FCA component of the work. Their team brings deep expertise in building systems analysis, ADA compliance, life safety, and long-range facility maintenance planning. Having successfully collaborated with Bureau Veritas on multiple past projects, we are confident in their ability to deliver detailed and well-documented assessments that will inform the City’s capital strategies. W H Y G R I F F I N S T R U C T U R E S ? 1. State-Wide Fire Facility Expertise: Our portfolio includes over 30 fire stations—from major headquarters to compact infill stations. Recent work includes Manteca Fire Station 6, Selma Fire Station 3, Orange Fire HQ & Station 1, Manhattan Beach Fire Station 2, and more. We bring firsthand knowledge of NFPA, Title 24, and wellness/inclusivity trends in modern station design. 2. Thoughtful Assessments that Lead to Results: We specialize in actionable planning, translating field-level insights into implementable capital strategies. Our scope goes beyond basic assessment to include recommendations on renovation vs. reconstruction, operational continuity strategies, cost planning, and even delivery method options. Our team is also equipped to assist with stakeholder presentations and implementation roadmap development. 3. Public Safety Project Leadership from Concept to Completion: We have managed the delivery of nearly 100 public safety facilities for municipalities across CA, understanding how to align priorities with funding realities and operational constraints and transforming long-term capital goals into shovel- ready projects. This assessment effort represents a foundational investment in the future of Dublin’s fire infrastructure by providing a technically sound, fiscally responsible and actionable roadmap. We welcome the opportunity to collaborate with the City and Alameda County Fire and stand ready to begin work immediately.

This strategic effort aims to support the City’s ongoing collaboration with ACFD in identifying critical maintenance needs, evaluating compliance with current NFPA standards, and aligning facilities with the operational realities of today—and the demands of tomorrow. As the community evolves, the City recognizes the need to not only maintain its public safety infrastructure but also to ensure its stations promote gender equity, environmental sustainability, operational efficiency, and resilience in emergency response. Through this initiative, the City seeks to engage a qualified consultant team to deliver a comprehensive assessment of the three stations—Fire Stations 16, 17, and 18. The scope includes on-site inspections, stakeholder engagement, functional analysis, and a detailed evaluation of building systems, health and safety compliance, ADA access, and capacity for future service demands. The selected team will also provide planning-level cost estimates for maintenance, renovation, or replacement, along with feasibility analyses that factor in construction impacts, cost- benefit comparisons, and long-term capital planning. The City of Dublin’s vision is not simply to evaluate its assets but to develop a clear, data-informed roadmap that will guide near-term and long-range investments in its fire station infrastructure. The resulting recommendations will support informed decision-making, ensure operational continuity, and reflect the City’s dedication to maintaining a safe, responsive, and forward-thinking fire protection system. Griffin Structures brings a wealth of experience in conducting public safety facility assessments, operational programming, and long-term capital planning across California. We are excited about the opportunity to partner with the City of Dublin and leverage our technical, operational, and cost advisory expertise to deliver a robust, actionable study that advances the City’s public safety mission and long-term infrastructure goals. Project Understanding M A N H A T T A N B E A C H F I R E S T A T I O N N O . 2 88 G R I F F I N S T R U C T U R E S5 . T E C H N I C A L A P P R O A C H & WO R K P L A N 1 9 The following scope outlines our detailed, task-based approach to supporting the City of Dublin in conducting a comprehensive functional and physical condition assessment of Fire Stations 16, 17, and 18. This assessment will guide future capital investments, enhance long-term operational planning, and ensure the facilities remain aligned with modern service delivery standards and community needs. T A S K A : P R O J E C T I N I T I A T I O N , B A C K G R O U N D R E V I E W , A N D Q U E S T I O N N A I R E We will initiate the project with a structured kickoff meeting, bringing together representatives from the City of Dublin, the Alameda County Fire Department (ACFD), and any other identified stakeholders. This meeting will establish a foundation for communication, expectations, and milestone coordination. The primary objectives of this meeting will be to • Define roles, responsibilities, and protocols for communication. • Confirm project goals, schedule, and deliverables. • Identify key stakeholders for interview and engagement. • Discuss logistical details for site access, documentation needs, and reporting cadence. As part of this task, our team will review existing documentation such as original floor plans, maintenance records, CIP budget data, and prior studies to inform our assessments. Importantly, in alignment with the RFP, we will develop and distribute a tailored questionnaire to be completed by fire station personnel. The questionnaire will solicit insight on current building functionality, operational challenges, wellness concerns, and desired improvements. We will also review all requested as-builts and maintenance records as the foundation of our analysis. Results will be synthesized and integrated into the functional analysis and future recommendations. Finally, we will work with City staff to establish a recurring check-in structure, potentially through a working group, to review progress, provide feedback, and ensure alignment throughout the duration of the project. T A S K B : S I T E A S S E S S M E N T S This task will provide the City of Dublin with a comprehensive understanding of the current state of Fire Stations 16, 17, and 18 by evaluating both their physical conditions and space utilization. Our assessment will inform the planning of future improvements, ensuring each station supports safe, compliant, and efficient operations for years to come.

Facilities Condition Assessment Each station will undergo a thorough Facilities Condition Assessment (FCA) to evaluate all major building systems, components, and site infrastructure. Our team will inspect and assess the following: »Structural Systems—Foundation, load- bearing elements, roof structures, and any signs of movement or deterioration »Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP)—Age, performance, code compliance, energy efficiency, and maintainability of all building systems, including HVAC, lighting, water heating, power distribution, backup power, and plumbing systems »Life Safety and Fire Protection— Fire alarms, suppression systems, exiting systems, smoke control, and compliance with applicable fire codes »Accessibility—Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance across interior and exterior spaces, including parking, entries, restrooms, and signage »Environmental Considerations—Energy performance, building envelope performance, insulation, and potential for sustainability improvements »Health and Safety—Evaluation of exposure risks, such as air quality, material conditions, and physical hazards »Site and Building Security—Access control systems, surveillance, perimeter security, fencing, lighting, and emergency egress Our evaluations will be documented in a uniform system rating format and will identify the current condition, estimated remaining useful life, and repair/replacement priorities for each component. These findings will support long-range planning and capital investment decisions. 2. Space Needs Assessment Each station will be analyzed for how well its current spatial layout aligns with modern fire service needs and projected growth. This will include a comprehensive space utilization analysis and needs projection, covering: • Functional Space Analysis—Comparison of existing square footage and spatial allocations against NFPA standards and operational best practices • Staffing and Operations—Review of fire administration, company staffing, paramedic needs, reserve firefighter capacity, and support personnel to establish a baseline for required space allocation • Shift-Based Planning—Incorporation of 24-hour shift operations, bunk and locker needs, turnout gear storage, and kitchen/ dayroom utilization • Apparatus and Equipment Accommodation—Evaluation of current and future apparatus bay sizing, including tandem depths, reserve engine space, specialty apparatus needs, equipment storage, and bay clearance • Inclusivity and Wellness—Assessment of gender equity, inclusive restroom and bunk layouts, fitness rooms, decontamination areas, and wellness amenities 90 G R I F F I N S T R U C T U R E S5 . T E C H N I C A L A P P R O A C H & WO R K P L A N 2 1 • Zoning and Cross-Contamination—Review of station zoning to ensure hot, warm, and cold zones are clearly delineated to prevent contaminant crossover into living quarters, with attention to PPE/laundry placement and airflow control This study will inform whether current facilities are right-sized or if expansion, renovation, or reconstruction is required to meet both current demands and future operational goals. T A S K C : F E A S I B I L I T Y A N A L Y S I S A N D R E C O M M E N D A T I O N S With both the condition and space assessments in hand, our team will work closely with the City and ACFD to develop actionable, cost-informed recommendations for each fire station. This task will analyze feasibility, continuity of operations, and total project costs to support near- and long-term capital decisions. 1. Renovation vs. Reconstruction Analysis We will provide a detailed feasibility analysis that compares renovation/expansion against full station reconstruction. This includes: • Functional and financial comparisons based on assessment results • Identification of site constraints and opportunities (e.g., expansion limitations, adjacency to roadways) • Assessment of operational continuity strategies during construction, including temporary fire station options, phasing approaches, and potential staging locations • Preliminary project timeline forecasts for each option, helping the City understand schedule impacts, sequencing, and critical path issues We will also help establish escalation factors based on projected delivery timelines to maintain realistic cost planning over time. 2. Project Budget and Cost Estimating Using the preferred approach(es) for each site, we will prepare planning-level cost estimates that include: • Construction Costs—Building construction, site development, utilities, demolition (if applicable), and escalation • Soft Costs—Design and engineering services, agency fees, plan check, permit costs, environmental reviews, furniture/fixtures/equipment (FF&E), and technology infrastructure • Contingencies—Design, pricing, and construction contingencies appropriate for the current phase • Total Project Budget—Summary of all cost elements to provide a complete capital picture for each station C A T H E D R A L C I T Y F I R E S T A T I O N N O . 4 1 1 91 G R I F F I N S T R U C T U R E S5 . T E C H N I C A L A P P R O A C H & WO R K P L A N 2 2 As experienced program and construction managers, we are uniquely positioned to support the City with full-scope capital budget planning, not just construction estimates, to improve funding readiness and implementation planning. T A S K D : R E C O M M E N D A T I O N S The final task will distill all prior analysis into clear, prioritized, and actionable recommendations to support long-term station planning and investment. This includes: 1. Maintenance Recommendations Aligned to Capital Strategy While the Facilities Condition Assessment may identify corrective maintenance actions, we recognize that applying short- term repairs to facilities nearing the end of their life-cycle may not be cost-effective. Therefore, we will • Align maintenance recommendations with the City’s preferred improvement path (renovation vs. reconstruction). • Provide preventative maintenance projections (5- and 10-year planning windows) where appropriate to inform near-term CIP actions for retained assets. 2. Capital Improvement Planning For each fire station, we will develop a Capital Improvement Implementation Plan, which includes • A phased investment schedule categorized by near-term (1–5 years) and long-term (6–10+ years) needs • Integration of planning-level budgets aligned with scope options • Prioritization by urgency, cost, and service delivery impact • Summary graphics or matrix formats for easy reference in CIP discussions 3. Delivery Method Recommendations Where appropriate, we will educate the City on alternative project delivery methods, including Design-Build, Progressive Design- Build and more. This will include: • Comparative summary of pros, cons, and suitability for public safety facilities • Discussion of potential risk mitigation, schedule acceleration, and collaborative advantages • Case examples from recent fire or civic facilities where alternative delivery improved outcomes • These insights will help the City align implementation strategy with project complexity, urgency, and funding constraints. 4. Reporting Finally, we will consolidate our overall findings and recommendations into a clear and concise executive summary report and presentation, tailored for leadership, council members, and stakeholders to support informed decision-making and next steps. 92 6 .
