Thompson, Public Works Director EXHIBITS ATTACHED: 1) 2) 3) 4) Resolution Proposed Agreement, including Proposal RFP Budget change form RECOMMENDATION: 1) ~2) Approve additional appropriation in the amount of $27,000 from unaIlocated reserves Adopt resolution approving agreement FINANCIAL STATEMENT: The proposal estimates up to $24,000 for investigation and design through preparation of the [mal report and up to $3,000 for assistance in preparing bid documents, for a total of $27,000. Funds to cover this expense have not been budgeted for FY 1995-96; therefore, an appropriation from unallocated reserves is needed. DESCRIPTION: During the heavy rains of February, 1995, two shallow slides occurred on the slope above the homes on Crossridge Road. This slope is within the City's Dougherty HilIs open space. In November of 1995, the City Council received a petition from residents on Crossri-ige Road requesting that the City take steps to correct grading and drainage on the slope above their homes in order to avoid any additional landslides. The City Council subsequently directed Staff to conduct a study so that a Capital Improvement Project to repair and mitigate the slides could be developed for the 1996-97 Fiscal Year. The work would also include two slides on the opposite side of the hilI above Jade Circle and would be done prior to next winter's rainy season. Staff issued a Request for Proposal to Berlogar Geotechnical Consultants and received a proposal for an investigation and report and subsequent assistance in preparing bid documents. Berlogar Geotechnical Consultants has performed work for developers in the area as well as peer review work for the City. Staff has been impressed with the quality of their work and selected this firm to review the Dougherty HilIs Park soils problems. As this is a professional service, the City cannot request bids. The work is estimated .------------------------------------------------------------------- COPIES TO: Berlogar Geotechnical ITEMNO.M- g:\agenmisc\berlogar to cost up to $27,000. The cost of the actual repair work and Berlogar's construction phase services will be addressed at the time that the 1996-97 C.I.P. is prepared. Staff recommends that the City Council approve an appropriation from unallocated reserves in the amount of$27,000 and adopt the resolution approving the agreement with Berlogar Geotechnical Consultants.

Thompson Public Works Director City of Dublin P.O. 2340 Dublin, California 94568 Subject: Dougherty HilIs Park Landslides Dublin, California Dear Mr. Thompson: Pursuant to your letter of January 23, 1996, we are please to submit herewith our proposal to perform geotechnical investigations of four landslide areas. Two of the landslides are located in the slope above Crossridge Road and two of them are located on the slope above Jade Circle. At this point in time, preliminary indications are that the two slides above Jade Circle may be potentially significantly more complicated than the slides above Crossridge Road. The two slides above Crossridge Road appear typical of slump slides on oversteepened cut slopes. The two slides the north bend and south bend of Jade Circle appear, based on air photo review and field reconnaissance, that they might be located on larger deep seated landsliding that preexisted the development. It is always important in landslide investigations to consider potential for deeper sliding than the current level of activity, but this appears to be particularly critical for the two above Jade Circle. We propose that our investigation of the four landslides consist of excavation of backhoe test pits using a crawler-mounted excavator gaining access through the city water tank site. We anticipate that four to five test pits will be required for each of the two slides above Crossridge Road and that six to eight test pits will be required for each of the slides above Jade Circle. If the fmdings in the backhoe pits are judged conclusive above Crossridge Road, we would not drill borings for additional subsurface information in these two slides; however, should the backhoe exploration of the two slides not be conclusive.. borings will be needed. With regard to the two slide areas above Jade Circle, we anticipate that at least one boring each will should be drilled in each of these slides. We anticipate that these borings would extend to depths of approximately 25 to 40 feet. Depending on subsurface conditions encountered and the results of the backhoe work and the initial borings, it may be necessary to drill additional borings to provide for a thorough investigation of either of these two slides. Samples would be recovered from the borings and test pits and returned to our laboratory for further examination and testing. Laboratory testing is expected to be limited to index properties testing and strength testing for the design of the slide repair work. The information developed in our field and laboratory programs would be analyzed so that specific recommendations for repair of each of the four slide areas can be developed and presented in our report.

(S 101484·0220· FAX: IS 101846-9645 January 31, 1996 Job No. 2090.000 Page 2 With regard to the investigation and design phase of our work, we anticipate that the cost for our investigation wilI range between $15,000 to $24,000, depending on the number and depths of the borings drilled. Our fee for this work will be determined in accordance with the attached Fee Schedule - 1994 which is made a part hereof by reference. An approximate breakdown of this budget is as follows: Field Investigation $6,000 - $10,000 Laboratory $2,000 - $3,000 Analysis $4,000 - $6,000 Report Preparation $3,000 - $5,000 TOTAL $15,000 - $24,000 With regard to your request and scope of work, we believe that we can generally satisfy the intent of your four requested items as scope of work, but it mayor may not be possible to determine the actual cause of each of the four slides. With regard to fees for work beyond the design investigation and recommendations for repair, we recommend that you budget an additional $2,000 to $3,000 for assisting the City staff in preparation of the design documents for repair and mitigation work. With regard to construction observation services, our fee will depend upon two variables that cannot be defined at this point in time. The two variables are the final magnitude of the repair work and the rate of progress of the contractors repair work. For preliminary budget purpose, we recommend that you anticipate our fee for construction phase services to range between $25,000 and $50,000. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions.

California 94568 January 23, 1996 Mr. Frank Berlogar BERLOGAR GEOTECHNICAL 5587 Sunol Boulevard Pleasanton CA 94566 SUBJECT: RFP for Dougherty Hills Park Slides Dear Mr. Berlogar: This letter is to request that BERLOGAR GEOTECHNICAL provide the City of Dublin with a proposal for soils/geotechnical services to analyze and recommend solutions for the hillside failures above Crossridge Road and Jade Circle in Dublin's Dougherty Hills Park. As you know from our field trip, last year's heavy January rains caused four surficial slides, two above each street (above the mid-slope drainage ditches). The scope of the requested work is as follows: . 1) Provide on-site investigations and soils testing to determine the cause of the upper soils failure. 2) Make recommendations for the repair of the four slides. 3) Make recommendations for mitigation improvements to prevent reoccurrences. 4) Submit the results of the above listed items in report form. The fee for this work should be on a time-and-materials basis, not to exceed a maximum fee for the scope of work listed. Please also include additional estimated fees for aid in design documents for repair and mitigation work, as well as construction observation and consultation. Please submit this proposal to me no later than January 31, 1996. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact my office. Lee S.
