STAFF REPORT
REQUEST: Approve Amendment No. 4 to Contract No. C23110 with Omnis,
Inc. of Chino, CA, for Design of a Bus Bay East of San Pablo
Avenue (Project No. 697-05).
SUBMITTED BY: Mark Greenwood, P.E., Director of Public Works
APPLICANT: Omnis, Inc.

Chino, CA 91710
DATE: April 12, 2007
CONTENTS: Engineer's Proposal
Contract Amendment No. 4
Recommendation:
By Minute Motion:
1. Approve an amendment to Contract No. C23110 in the amount of
$2,820.00 with Omnis, Inc., of Chino, CA, for design and engineering
services to construct a bus bay on Highway 111 east of San Pablo
Avenue.
2. Authorize the Mayor to execute the subject amendment.
Discussion:
On October 28, 2004 the City Council awarded Contract C23110 in the amount
of $49,000 to Omnis, Inc. to design sidewalks along four different segments of
Highway 111 between Plaza Way and Larkspur Lane. Subsequently,
amendments totaling $20,850.00 have been made to modify the intersection of
Highway 111 and Plaza Way to eliminate the abrupt dip at the south end of the
intersection, and to extend the left turn pocket from westbound Highway 111 to
southbound Plaza Way.
Public Works staff has identified another location on Highway 111 which could be
modified to improve traffic safety and efficiency. The bus stop in the eastbound
lanes just east of San Pablo Avenue has no bus bay. When the bus stops to pick
up passengers, the through traffic in the number three lane must come to a
complete stop, increasing chances for rear end collisions. The construction of a
bus bay will provide an area where the bus can pull out of the live traffic lane.

The bus bay will fall within the State Right -of -Way. Any work to be performed
within the State Right -of -Way, requires Caltrans review and approval prior to
construction. The existing contract with Omnis requires that they guide the plans
through the approval process at Caltrans.
Although the design is almost complete under the existing contract with Omnis,
staff recommends amending the contract to provide engineered plans for the bus
bay. The proposal fee of $2,820.00 was reviewed and determined to be fair.
The additional design will take a short period of time, and it is highly beneficial to
include all the Highway 111 improvements on one set of plans for Caltrans
review.
Funds are available for this work in the public works professional service
account: 110-4300-413-3010.
Therefore, staff recommends that City Council authorize the Mayor to execute
amendment No. 2 to the agreement with Omnis Inc. for Professional Engineering
Services for the above -mentioned work.

Subject: Proposal for Additional Services for Sidewalk
Improvements on Highway 111 -Project No. 697-OS
Bus Turn-out East at San Pablo Avenue
Dear Mr. Gayler:
We have reviewed the exhibit prepared by the City "Exhibit 1 Proposed Bus Turn-out Highway
111 at San Pablo Avenue", dated February 2, 2007. We propose to incorporate the bus tum-out
design in the plans we are currently preparing for the subject sidewalk improvement project. The
bus tum-out will be designed to ensure positive gutter drainage and will feature an 8-Foot wide
sidewalk adjacent to the new curb. We aiso propose to prepare a striping modification plan for
Yhe affected parking stalls as the proposed bus turnout improvements will encroach 5 to 6 feet
into the existing parking lot to the south of Highway 111.
Below is our proposed level of effort to complete the described additional services:
Project Manager/Engineer...............16 hours x $120/hour= $1,920
CAD Technician...................................12 hours x $75/hour=$900
Total Proposed Fee= $2,820
We are ready to begin the design of the bus turn-out with your authorization. Should you have
any questions or wish to discuss any part of this proposal, please call me at 909-631-1537.
Sincerely,
Omnis Incorporated
