SUBJECT: Approval of Psomas Professional Services greement - Waterfrni�t
Development
Statement of Issue,Funding Source,Recommended Action,Alternative Action(s),Analysis,Environmental Status,Attachments)
Statement of Issue: In order to assist the development community and process the
number of large complex projects, it is necessary for the City to hire contract staff planners
and engineers to analyze the projects. The Waterfront Development is such a project. The
Public Works Department desires to use the services of Psomas and Associates and its
designated representative, Gary Dysart, to assist in the processing of the project.
Funding Source: The Reimbursement Agreement between the City and The Robert L.
Mayer Trust requires the developer to defray the professional planning and engineering
services costs incurred by the City. The developer is required to pay not more than
$120,000 for a term of one year and to transmit $60,000 retroactive to May, 1997.
Recommended Action: Motion to approve the Professional Services Contract between the
City and Psomas and Associates for project coordination services related to the Waterfront
Expansion Development Project.
Alternative Actions :
1. To deny approval of the recommended action and direct staff to solicit proposals from
other consultants for the desired professional services. This action would delay the
processing of the project and may result in not meeting entitlement deadlines.
2. To deny approval of the recommended action and direct staff not to use outside
professional services to assist in processing of the project. This is not recommended
because it would be inconsistent with the City Council's action on October 20, 1997
approval a reimbursement agreement with The Robert L. Mayer Trust for special project
processing assistance. It may also result in not meeting the development entitlement
deadlines.

R�QUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTIA
MEETING DATE: November 17, 1997 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PW 97-090
Analysis: The number of large, complex projects requires the City to hire contract staff
planners and engineers to assist in the processing of these projects in a more timely
manner. On October 20, 1997 the City Council approved a Reimbursement Agreement
between the City and The Robert L. Mayer Trust to defray the professional planning and
engineering services costs incurred by the City for the Waterfront Development Project. The
developer desires to participate in the reimbursement agreement process as it will give them
greater assurance of timely entitlement processing in the City.
Psomas and Associates through its assigned representative, Gary Dysart, is already working
along side Public Works Engineering Division staff on some other assignments and is
readily available to immediately provide assistance in the processing of this large
development project. Besides already being familiar with the Department's processes and
staff, he has over 25 years experience in working with Public Works Departments for the
processing of large scale land development projects. Psomas is also highly recognized as
being experts in land development engineering and has had a large track record in providing
quality services to the City. Their fees are comparable with other firms in the industry.
Environmental Status: Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality
Act.

Fee Schedule
Since the level of work effort that will be needed for Development Processing Assistance
will vary depending on the scope of each activity, it is proposed that the-.work be
performed on an hourly rate basis. The staff assigned to any task will be determined
according to the technical requirements of the task and its complexity. In those instances
where the scope of work can be clearly defined in advance, a task budget amount could
be authorized by the City staff.
A copy of Psomas' standard fee rates are attached for your consideration. The services of
Gary P. Dysart will continue to be at the rate of$115 per hour.
SUMMARY
We recognize your need to properly address the increased processing demands facing the
City of Huntington Beach. We believe that Psomas has the expert talent to help guide
strategies for solving these pressing issues: how you are going to best respond to these
new demands by the development community; how should you staff; internal hires or
external consultants.
Possible solutions might call for the formation of a Strike Force or Strike Team assigned
to each specific plan so the developer feels a sense of service and.quick response.
Whatever the final solution, we think we can assist in the diagnosis of the potential issues
and would suggest an initial meeting with the City and three members of our team; Gary
Dysart, Jacob Lipa, and Sharon Kaplan to help start by discussing what developers want
to see in a responsive development program.
The Psomas Team is made up of a unique blend of local talent in Land Development
Processing. For the past fifty years, Psomas has developed an award-winning reputation
for innovative and cutting-edge technology. Psomas is known for delivering a quality

BALLONA WETLANDS PLANNING
County of Los Angeles
:In February, 1989, Maguire Thomas Partners became owners of the Playa Vista
Development encompassing over 950 acres within the City of Los Angeles and Marina
del Rey that include approximately 285 acres designated as coastal wetlands and upland
habitat. The project had been delayed since1984 as a result of a law suit that had been
brought by Friends of Ballona Wetlands,et al. However, through cooperative efforts of
the parties, a settlement agreement was reached in October, 1990. This agreement calls
for the following six broad categories of actions:
Scaling down the commercial development in the entire project area by 25 percent
Eliminating development in the contiguous wetlands now planned for enforcement or
restoration
Expanding wetlands area by transforming adjacent uplands into productive wetlands
'Increasing wetlands value through enhancement of fish and wildlife habitat, while
providing for flood control capacity and water quality enhancement
Providing funds for restoration and management of the wetlands to a mid-tidal system
tidal range of 3.0' resulting in a flow of about 110 acre-feet during each tidal cycle
Pursuing the wetlands restoration to a full-tidal system tidal range of 5.5' resulting in a
flow of about 360 acre-feet during each tidal cycle by making mitigation credits available
to others.
The revised mixed-use development includes the following elements: office—4,900,000
square feet; residential— 11,750 dwelling units; retail-720,000 square feet; hotel—
2,400,rooms; marina—600-900 slips; wetlands/riparion corridor—285 acres.
Psomas, which had previously been working with the original property owner, was
challenged by Maguire Thomas Partners to develop preliminary engineering plans for
Playa Vista that would meet the following objectives: provide flood protection for Playa
Vista and existing adjacent developments; provide for restoration and enhancement of
habitat value of the wetlands; control the quality of storm water runoff as a contribution
to the improvement of water quality in Santa Monica Bay. Psomas, working closely with
biologists and water quality consultants, developed the concept and preliminary grading
plan series of cascading wetland cells and tidal channels connected by a system of two-
directional culverts, flap-gated culverts,weirs and gates to meet the projects objectives.
A complex hydrodynamic analysis was carried out by Psomas to size storm drains and
wetland circulation pipe and channels, and for computation of water surface elevations
under both storm conditions and tidal influence.
Psomas, in conjunction with other team members, developed the concept of a Riparion
Corridor to replace the existing centinela ditch within the Playa Vista development. The
PSOMAS
i •
riparion corridor is to function as a drainage system that cleanses storm runoff while
providing a natural habitat and community amenity.
This project presented a unique opportunity to develop an engineering solution that
would balance the demands for public safety against storm water flooding with
improvements to its natural habitat and to water quality in Santa Monica Bay. The project
requirements were established to restore natural assets that complement a major mixed-
use development within an environmentally sensitive area. Ballona Wetlands is the
largest and only one of the two remaining coastal wetlands in Los Angeles County. As
such, it is an irreplaceable natural resource.
Psomas developed a hydrodynamic model of the wetlands systems to analyze the flow
and routing of storm and tidal water through the system. This analysis technique was
presented in a paper given at the conference of the Hydraulics and Hydrology Section of
the American Society of Civil Engineers in July/August 1990 in San Diego, California.
This hydrodynamic modeling technique, developed by Psomas, is also being used by the
firm to analyze the new marina basin being planned for the Playa Vista development. A
concept has been conceived by Psomas for creating a man-made lagoon that would act as
a buffer between the marina and the existing storm drainage outfall that would otherwise
discharge directly into and contaminate the marina. Using a series of flap-gated culverts,
tidal flow into the marina would be allowed to pass into the lagoon,but could only exit
directly into Ballona Channel. The flushing action would enhance the quality of.water in
both the marina and in Ballona Channel.
Psomas' role is this project has been one of partner and facilitator to accomplish
engineering solutions that impact on one of the most environmentally significant pieces
of property in Southern California. The concepts and plans developed by Psomas for this
project have undergone review and concurrence by a wide range of public and private
agencies, organizations and individuals including the following: U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers; California Coastal Commission; California Department of Fish and Game;
Regional Water Quality Control Board; City of Los Angeles; County of Los Angeles;
Maguire Thomas Partners, Inc. Southern California Gas Company; Friends of Ballona
Wetlands; League of Coastal Protection; League of Women Voters of Los Angeles
County; Citizens of Playa del Rey,Marina del Rey, and City of Los Angeles; Assistant
Attorney General of the State of California for Environmental Protection. The practice
areas utilized from within the Psomas organization for this project have included grading
design, hydraulics, hydrology, surveying, computer modeling and land planning.
