Consultant shall not commence any work exceeding the Scope of Work without prior written authorization from the City. Failure of the Consultant to secure City's written authorization for extra or changed work shall constitute a waiver of any and all right to adjustment in the contract price or time due, whether by way of compensation, restitution, quantumi meruit, etc. for work done without the appropriate City authorization. D. Taxes. Consultant shall pay all taxes, assessments and premiums under the federal Social Security Act, any applicable unemployment insurance contributions, Workers Compensation insurance premiums, sales taxes, use taxes, personal property taxes, or other taxes or assessments now or hereafter in effect and payable by reason of or in connection with the services to be perforned by Consultant.

All work done and all materials furnished, if Page 3 of 19 OAK #4544-6469-5375 v103 any, shall be subject to the Project Manager's inspection and approval. The inspection of such work shall not relieve Consultant of any of its obligations to fulfill the Agreement as prescribed. 7. Ownership of Documents.

Consultant further covenants that in the performance of the Agreement, no person having any such interest shall be employed by it as an officer, employee, agent, or subcontractor without the express written consent of the City. Consultant agrees at all times to avoid conflicts of interest, or the appearance of any conflicts of interest, with the interests of the City in the performance of the Agreement. (1) Consultant is not a designated employee within the meaning of the Political Reform Act because Consultant: (2) will conduct research and arrive at conclusions with respect to its rendition of information, advice, recommendation, or counsel independent of the control and direction of the City or of any City official, other than normal contract monitoring; and (3) possesses no authority with respect to any City decision beyond the rendition of information, advice, recommendation, or counsel.

No member of the City and no other officer, elected official, employee or agent of the City shall be personally liable to Page 4 of 19 OAK #4844-6469-8375 v103 Consultant or otherwise in the event of any default or breach of the City, or for any amount which may become due to Consultant or any successor in interest, or for any obligations directly or indirectly incurred under the terms of this Agreement. The City has no liability or responsibility for any accident, loss, or damage to any work performed under this Agreement whether prior to its completion or acceptance or otherwise. 11. Indemnity. A. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall, at its own expense, indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the City) and hold harmless City and any and all of its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers ("Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all liability (including liability for claims, demands, damages, obligations, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses or costs of any kind, whether actual, alleged or threatened, including attorneys fees and costs, court costs, interest, defense costs and expert witness fees) of any nature ("Liability"), whether actual, alleged or threatened, which arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the performance or failure to comply with this Agreement, regardless of any fault or alleged fault of the Indemnified Parties. For design professionals (as that term is defined by statute) acting within the scope of their professional capacity, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall, at its own expense, indemnify, protect, defend (by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the City) and hold harmless any Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Liability, whether actual, alleged or threatened, which arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Consultant, or as may be provided by statute in Civil Code § 2782.8, as may be amended from time to time. The only exception to Consultant's responsibility to indemnify, protect, defend, and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from Liability is due to the active negligence or willful misconduct of City or its elective or appointive boards, officers, agents and employees. B. Scope of Obli ag tion. Consultant's duty to indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless as set forth in this Section 11 shall include the duty to defend (by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the City) as set forth in California Civil Code § 2778.

This indemnification shall be regardless of and not in any way limited by the insurance requirements of this contract. This indemnification is for the full period of time allowed by law and shall survive the tennination of this agreement. Consultant waives any and all rights to express or implied indemnity against the Indemnified Parties concerning any Liability of the Consultant arising out of or in connection with the Agreement or Consultant's failure to comply with any of the terns of this Agreement. Consultant's duty to indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless as set forth in this Section 11 shall not be excused because of the Consultant's inability to evaluate Liability, or because the Page 5 of 19 OAK #4844-6469-8375 v103 Consultant evaluates Liability and determines that the Consultant is not or may not be liable. The Consultant must respond within thirty (30) calendar days to any tender by the City, unless the time for responding has been extended by an authorized representative of the City in writing. If the Consultant fails to timely accept such tender, in addition to any other remedies authorized by law, as much of the money due or that may become due to the Consultant under this Agreement as shall reasonably be considered necessary by the City may be retained by the City until disposition has been made of the matter subject to tender, or until the Consultant accepts the tender, whichever occurs first. Consultant agrees to fully reimburse all costs, including but not limited to attorney's fees and costs and fees of litigation incurred by the City in responding to matters prior to Consultant's acceptance of the tender. 12.

The policy must "pay on behalf of the insured and must include a provision establishing the insurer's duty to defend. The policy retroactive date shall be on or before the effective date of this agreement. Exhibit C OAK #4844-6469-8375 v103 Insurance procured pursuant to these requirements shall be written by insurers that are admitted carriers in the state of California and with an A.M. Best's rating ofA- or better and a ininimum financial size VII. General conditions pertaining to provision of insurance coverage by Consultant. Consultant and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Consultant. 1. Consultant agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds the City, its officers, elected officials, employees, agents, and volunteers using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 20 10 or an approved equivalent. If completed operations coverage is excluded, the policy must be endorsed to include such coverage. Consultant also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise. 2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Consultant, or Consultant's employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Consultant agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise. 3. The worker's compensation policy is to be endorsed with a waiver of subrogation. The insurance company, in its endorsement, agrees to waive all rights of subrogation against the City, its officers, elected officials, employees, agents, and volunteers for losses paid under the terms of this policy which arise from the work performed by the named insured for the City. 4. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or applicable to this agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage. 5. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing. 6. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called "third party action over" claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor. 7. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Consultant shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City's protection without City's prior written consent. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Consultant's general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Consultant or deducted from sums due Consultant, at City option. Exhibit C OAK #4844-6469-5375 v103 9. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 days notice to City of any cancellation of coverage. Consultant agrees to require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, or that any party will "endeavor" (as opposed to being required) to comply with the requirements of the certificate. 10. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Consultant or any subcontractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary, noncontributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self insurance available to City. 11. Consultant agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by Consultant, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Consultant. Consultant agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review. 12. Consultant agrees not to self -insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self -insure its obligations to City. If Consultant's existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self- insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Consultant, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions. i � 'rt... n:... the L.+ + time ithe ten— ^f the contract t� change the amounts and 1J. iuc �-ALY res%iv'CS ui�. iigii� a� anyduring .. --o" types of insurance required by giving the Consultant ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Consultant, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City. 14. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. 15. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Consultant of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard. 16. Consultant will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect. 17. Consultant shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from Consultant's insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these specifications applicable to Exhibit C OAK #4844-6469-8375 v103 the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five days of the expiration of the coverages. 18. The provisions of any workers' compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Consultant under this agreement. Consultant expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its officers, elected officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. 19. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue, and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive. 20. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such. 21. The requirements in this Section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Section. 22. Consultant agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Consultant for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto. 23. Consultant agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Consultant arising out of the work perforined under this agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City.

Darrin Jenkins, City Manager (Date) Name, Title Per Resolution No. 2016- adopted by the Rohnert Park City Council at its meeting ofJune 14, 2016. ATTEST: City Clerk APPROVED AS TO FORM: City Attorney (Date) Exhibit A Task 1 - Step 1 Roundabout Siting Study This task addresses general Project Management, including coordination with the Deputy City Engineer and other staff members as required, preparation of monthly status reports and invoices. Tasks 1.1 and 1.2 are independent of the Step 1 and Step 2 process. Task 1.1 Project Management and Coordination Meetings. We have tentatively identified the following meetings as being the minimum required for the project: Meeting 1: Kick off meeting with City of Rohnert Park involved staff. The meeting is intended to define the overall project goals, confirm roundabout siting parameters, and to review the overall scope and schedule. This meeting is designed to review the specifics of each of the preliminarily selected roundabout intersections, to understand the city's objectives and any nuances with specific locations that could affect the "roundabout siting analysis" process. As a part of this meeting we will, with City Staff, conduct a "field review" of the roundabout locations which are to be included in this evaluation. Obvious environmental or right of way issues will be noted and obvious "fatal flaws" recognized, to facilitate the early elimination of potentially flawed sites. If additional environmental review is required it can be identified and budgeted following this "field review" as an optional work item. Meeting 2: This meeting is envisioned to efficiently identify and discuss specific ii itcrScCtioiii IJJUGJ. items such as- traffic f^reca-ting and ^,per--- right of Way community considerations and other parameters will be discussed. Meeting to review the summary of Step 1 "Roundabout Siting" study and define the Step 2 process, confirm locations that will be studied under this task, consider additional Measurements of Effectiveness (MOE's) and review the Task 2 scope and schedule Meeting 3:. This meeting would be a presentation to the City of Rohnert Park City Council outlining the study process and the study findings and recommended location rankings. Task 1.2 Community Outreach - OPTIONAL Community Outreach can be a critical component of a successful community roundabout program; we have included the following tasks within this program; 1.2.1 Community Meeting - Why Roundabouts? Presentation This presentation is designed to inform the community as the benefits that roundabouts can provide when placed in proper environments. This will be a presentation followed by a Q&A opportunity for more defined response to specific issues raised by the attendees. 1.2.2 Meeting with Senior City Staff (Department/Division Managers) This meeting is recommended as a means to inform the key City staff on the value of roundabout installations. The purpose of this meeting is to create a cohesive community dialogue as the staff meets the public at large. 1.2.3 ON-GOING Community Dialogue / Grant Application Preparation This effort could involve presentations to community groups such as Chamber of Commerce, Rotary, Soroptimist, etc. We can support staff in these presentations or provide the presentation as the city desires. We will also be available to assist the City in the Preparation of ATP, HSIP and/or SSAR grant applications resulting from this project. Task 1.3 Traffic Forecasts, Base Mapping and Safety Data 1.3.1 Traffic Forecasts We understand that the City's intent is to utilize the available traffic data from the following studies: City of Rohnert Park Consolidate Traffic Operations Study (February 2009) Review of Traffic Capacity Needs for Two Projects (March 2010) Central Rohnert Park PDATraffic Impact Study (April 2015) Prior to presenting our proposal we identified several intersections on the study corridors that may be a viable candidate for a roundabout that were not included in the above studies. At the kick-off meeting, we intend to further discuss including these intersections in the siting study. Since traffic data is not readily available, we plan to obtain new traffic counts for these locations and also develop traffic forecasts for the design year (2040), as an Extra Work Item as stated on Page 21 of our proposal. These forecasts will be the basis for the initial alternatives screening. The Sonoma County Transportation Authority (SCTA) maintains and utilizes a Regional Travel Demand Model (RTDM) to support the planning projects. Omni -Means intends to use the RTDM to develop the design year forecasts. 1.3.2 Accident Data - Safety Analysis This task will include obtaining the most recent five (5) years of accident data for all study intersections from Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS) and supplemented with Traffic Accident Surveillance and Analysis System (TASAS) accident data for intersections on the state highway system. This data will be utilized in safety analysis (collision costs), which is an integral component within the Return of Investment analysis. 1.3.3 Base Mapping Under this task, existing data sources will be leveraged to provide base mapping for each study location. Data sources could include the City, County and SCTA GIS data and available aerial images. Right of way data will be extracted from the available GIS parcel data layers. Aerial photography data will be existing City/County aerial images. For intersections with apparent utility concerns, utility system maps will be requested from the City. For each study area a concept level design base map will be created. The base map will include aerial photography, right of way, and parcel lines. Base maps may include utilities if there are concerns about major relocations and their impact on the feasibility of improving specific intersections. The base mapping will be performed in AutoCAD Civil 3D in the same coordinate system used in the City GIS mapping. The limits of each study intersection base map will extend beyond the anticipated improvement limits to ensure flexibility in development of concepts. Task 1.4 Alternatives Screening We have tentatively identified the following meetings as being the minimum required for the project: 1.4.1 Identify Viable and Practical Access Solution Concepts Under this task, Omni -Means will identify viable solutions that meet the need and purpose, are context sensitive and could be implemented within the environmental constraints. 1.4.2 Capacity Assessment and Analysis The analysis of proposed roundabout alternatives and existing intersection control will be completed in SIDRA. The objective of this analysis is to identify feasible alternatives that provide acceptable operations for design year forecasts. 1.4.3 Develop Preliminary Control Geometrics and Footprint Area Based on the information obtained from previous tasks, layouts depicting the preliminary geometrics and footprint will be prepared for the viable study alternatives. Preliminary geometrics for alternatives as applicable will be developed. The two most critical roundabout design parameters that influence the geometry are fast paths and truck turns. We will provide a concept that satisfies both fast path and truck turns. 1.4.4 Determine Preliminary Safety Assessment Based on the crash data information and published data with respect to crash modification factors, preliminary safety assessment will be performed for the study alternatives. Task 1 Deliverables: Task 1.5 Technical Memorandum - Summary of "Roundabout Siting Analysis" Step 1 Analysis and Recommendations Utilizing information developed within the basic capacity assessment analysis and preliminary geometry and footprint area, a written recommendation to City whether they should proceed to developing Step 2 "roundabout siting analysis". Task 2 - Full Intersection Control Evaluation Analysis Under this task, Omni -Means working with the City of Rohnert Park will identify the "high priority" intersections that will be subjected to a more complex evaluation to assist in the development of a meaningful 'Return on Investment - ROI" analysis to aid in the prioritization of allocation of potential improvement funding. Presented in the following section is a task breakdown and a brief description of work that will be performed under this task. Task 2.1 Return on Investment (ROI) The initial investment cost (alone) is usually not a reason to "screen" an access strategy or configuration, especially when the solution concept is expected to produce significant performance benefits in terms of the estimated reduction in collisions, delay and life -cycle costs (from maintenance and operation of the intersection and its control strategy). In other words, an alternative with a higher initial capital cost may produce a "Return on Investment" (ROI) that is significantly higher than the ROI for the lowest cost alternative. The following tasks as described in the understanding and approach will be utilized in the ROI analysis: Mobility Costs Collision Costs Maintenance and Operations Costs Opinion of Probable Cost Return on Investment (ROI) Index Task 2 Deliverables: Task 2.2 Draft Report - Summary of 'Roundabout Siting Analysis" Steps 1 and 2 Analysis and Recommendations Utilizing information developed under "roundabout siting analysis" Steps 1 and 2, the concepts/configurations that should be advanced for design will be recommended. The concepts/configurations that were considered and dropped from further study will be noted. Task 2.3 Final Report Comments provided on the draft report will be noted. The final report will be prepared to incorporate these comments. 5 "M 11 to 1 tC ' C O C U € O C N N @ C N C o' cj� c€ N CO N N w= Nm 1.2. c 0,O En 0o O T� a: Q c > �m W x -0 io :t @:� �:'� �: �:� N' cid c Cc a a c t o f ti N O 21 c, a)3= N' a> -o E� E a En C/)U a O dO C; N N O d C y € C U i N Q _.D d@ Q Q) M N.— C � ¢ O U) -.
