DISCUSSION
The Capital Improvement Program has planned for the reconstruction of the streets,replacement of
the watermain, and replacement/repair of the sanitary and storm sewer systems within the Orchard
Lane area in the summer of 2018. The proposed project extents are illustrated in Figure 1.
These streets were selected using the City's Pavement Management Program and site investigations.
This project includes approximately 0.7 miles of streets. Sixty-Fourth (64th) Street was constructed
in 1997 and Forest Circle was constructed in 1975; all other streets in the project area were
constructed in 1971. The streets within the project area were sealcoated in 1994 and 1999. The
2014 surveyed pavement conditions are shown in Figure 1 and range from 0 to 33.4. A PCI of 100
represents a new street.

Forest Circle and 64th Street are urbanized; the remaining streets in the project area are a rural
section with no defined ditch. Concrete curb and gutter is proposed to be added to the rural street
sections if adequate stormwater rate, volume and water quality features can be incorporated into the
design. The street widths in the project area are summarized in the table below. The streets are
proposed to be reconstructed to the existing widths due to site constraints and existing right-of-way
widths.

The water main alignment, material and diameters are shown in Figure 2. There is one documented
water main break within the project area. All public water main, water services within the right-of-
way and curb stop boxes will be replaced. The water main extension to Highway 41 is proposed be
replaced as well; replacement of the water main underneath Highway 41 will be a bid alternate to the
project. The 10-inch water main will be replaced with 12-inch water main.

The sanitary sewer within the project area consists of eight and 10-inch PVC pipe as shown in
Figure 3. It is anticipated that some sanitary sewer mains will need to be repaired or replaced along
with some services. The City will have the sewer lines televised to determine the scope of sanitary
sewer repairs and replacement. Inflow/infiltration barriers will be installed in all manholes.

ENGINEERING SERVICES
Consultant engineering services would be needed for the street project including preparation of the
feasibility report, preliminary and final street and utility design, and preparation of as-built drawings.
Construction administrative and observation services are proposed to be performed by City staff.
Staff sent a request for proposals to two engineering companies: Kimley-Horn &Associates and
WSB & Associates. Proposals were received from both consultants and are summarized below:

Transmittal letter submitted ✓ V
Members of the consultant team identified ✓ ✓
Understanding of the project V V
Total Hours 1,787 1,390
Total Cost $219,880 $198,142
The proposed WSB team has extensive street and utility reconstruction project experience including
the following projects in Chanhassen: Minnewashta Manor(2017), Minnewashta Heights (2012),
Red Cedar Point (2011), and the Erie Avenue Area (2010). Their work in Chanhassen and other
communities has been satisfactory. The consultant contract will be a time and materials based work
not-to-exceed amount.
As with all engineering contracts, the consultant must submit periodic invoices that staff will review

Justification
The City uses a Pavement Management System to monitor the condition of the City streets. While proper preventative maintenance extends the jp
life of the street and is cost effective,a street will eventually deteriorate to a point that further maintenance is no longer cost effective.
Rehabilitation projects extend the life of the street. In cases when utilities or poor sub grade needs to be replaced or where streets have
deteriorated to a point where rehabilitation will no longer be practical,reconstruction of the street is necessary. A feasibility study is written to
consider the merits of the project and scope of work.

EXHIBIT A
GENERAL CONTRACT PROVISIONS
ARTICLE 1 — PERFORMANCE OF THE WORK
Consultant shall perform the services under this Agreement in accordance with the care and skill
ordinarily exercised by members of Consultant's profession practicing under similar circumstances at the
same time and in the same locality. Consultant makes no warranties, express or implied, under this
Agreement or otherwise, in connection with its services.
ARTICLE 2 — ADDITIONAL SERVICES
If the Client requests that the Consultant perform any services which are beyond the scope as set forth in
the Agreement, or if changed or unforeseen conditions require the Consultant to perform services outside
of the original scope, then, Consultant shall promptly notify the Client of cause and nature of the
additional services required. Upon notification, Consultant shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment in
both compensation and time to perform.
ARTICLE 3 — SCHEDULE
Unless specific periods of time or dates for providing services are specified in a separate Exhibit,
Consultant's obligation to render services hereunder will be for a period which may reasonably be
required for the completion of said services. The Client agrees that Consultant is not responsible for
damages arising directly or indirectly from any delays for causes beyond Consultant's control. For
purposes of this Agreement, such causes include, but are not limited to, strikes or other labor disputes;
severe weather disruptions, or other natural disasters or acts of God; fires, riots, war or other
emergencies; any action or failure to act in a timely manner by any government agency; actions or failure
to act by the Client or the Client's contractor or consultants; or discovery of any hazardous substance or
differing site conditions. If the delays outside of Consultant's control increase the cost or the time required
by Consultant to perform its services in accordance with professional skill and care, then Consultant shall
be entitled to a reasonable adjustment in schedule and compensation.
ARTICLE 4 — CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATION
If requested by Client, Consultant shall visit the project during construction to become familiar with the
progress and quality of the contractors' work and to determine if the work is proceeding, in general, in
accordance with plans, specifications or other contract documents prepared by Consultant for the Client.
The Client has not retained the Consultant to make detailed inspections or to provide exhaustive or
continuous project review and observation services.
Consultant neither guarantees the performance of any Contractor retained by Client nor assumes
responsibility for any Contractors failure to furnish and perform the work in accordance with the
construction documents. Client acknowledges Consultant will not direct, supervise or control the work of
contractors or their subcontractors, nor shall Consultant have authority over or responsibility for the
contractors' means, methods, or procedures of construction. Consultant's services do not include review
or evaluation of the Client's, contractors or subcontractors safety measures, or job site safety. Job Site
Safety shall be the sole responsibility of the contractor who is performing the work.

Consultant Team / 5
A Proposal to Perform Services for the 2018 Street Improvement Project (City Project No. 18-01) for the City of Chanhassen
This project involves the reconstruction of the streets and utilities in the neighborhood just to the southwest of the State
Highway 7/State Highway 41 intersection. The streets within the project area are as follows:
Orchard Lane from Minnewashta Woods Drive to
Forest Avenue
Orchard Lane from Forest Avenue to Oriole Avenue
Forest Avenue from Orchard Lane to Forest Circle
The overall project area is very similar to the Minnewashta
Manor neighborhood just to the west, in that Orchard
Lane, Forest Avenue and Oriole Avenue are located in a
rural area without the presence of a formalized drainage
system. Forest Circle and 64th Street West are urbanized
with existing curb and gutter. There is a storm sewer along
64th Street that drains to the wetland adjacent to Herman
Field Park. One of the primary goals for the project is to
reconstruct the rural section streets as urban sections
containing concrete curb and gutter, along with a sand
subgrade section and draintile. The challenge the City is
faced with in accomplishing this goal is the development
of a formalized drainage system and stormwater
management plan that will address runoff and treatment
concerns prior to discharging into Lake Minnewashta.
With this project, the City will be working with its selected
consultant to identify and evaluate potential options for
stormwater management that will be incorporated into the
final plans for the reconstruction project.
Access will be a primary concern during construction. There
are two primary access points to TH 7 from the project
area, and one access point must be maintained at all times.
One access point will be west of the project area off of
Sandpiper Trail, which will be reconstructed during the 2017
construction season. Access from this point will be limited
to residents only. Construction traffic will not be allowed
to utilize this access point. The design development will
address traffic control and access solutions with MnDOT to
allow for continued traffic while staging the street and utility
construction within the neighborhood.
A
WSB
Forest Avenue from Forest Circle to cul de sac
Oriole Avenue from Highway 7 to 64th Street
64th Street West from Oriole Avenue to cul de sac
The existing watermain in the area consists of a 6 to
10 -inch cast iron pipe with a limited break history. WSB
will coordinate the geotechnical exploration for the area
to determine if soils are corrosive in nature and provide
recommendations on construction techniques and
materials to extend the useful life of the proposed pipe.
Based on the physical constraints on the site, trenchless
processes for replacement of the watermain, including
pipe bursting and directional drilling, will be evaluated and
included as alternate bids for the watermain installation.
The City will be televising of the gravity portion of the
sanitary sewer system in the project area in advance
of final design. The selected consultant will be
responsible for reviewing the televising logs and reports
and recommending system improvements, potentially
including point repairs, chemical and grout sealing
of joints and manholes, and replacement of sections
of the pipe that are sagging and holding water. Final
improvements to the system will be selected by the City
based on the consultant's recommendations.
Similar to the 2016 Street Improvement project, this
project is on Lake Minnewashta and carries the same
permitting requirements. We anticipate that public
involvement will be critical to ensure that resident and
Council concerns are addressed to the maximum extent
possible. The project is proposed to be partially funded
with levied assessments. This will require the project
improvement process to be completed in accordance with
Minnesota State Statutes Chapter 429.
Project Understanding / 6
A Proposal to Perform Services for the 2018 Street Improvement Project (City Project No. 18-01) for the City of Chanhassen
Based on our understanding of the project, WSB proposes the following scope of services. Our proposed schedule
presumes award of the consultant contract in March 2017 and estimates substantial completion in 2018, with final
completion of the project by early 2019.
TASK 1 - Design and Bidding Services
1.1— Preparation of Feasibility Report
Based on the approval of the preliminary design by City staff,
WSB will prepare the feasibility report that meets Minnesota
State Statutes Chapter 429 requirements, which will include:
Report text
Graphics depicting proposed improvements
Engineer's opinion of probable cost
Preliminary assessment roll
As part of the feasibility report, WSB will prepare a presentation
and handout materials for the public hearing, as well as attend
and facilitate the public hearing as needed.

1.2 — Preparation of Preliminary Plans and
Final Construction Plans and Documents
WSB will complete a preliminary design for all
components within the project, which will serve as the
basis for the feasibility study. The preliminary design will
address the following features:
Street Centerline Profile — We anticipate that existing
grades in the project area will closely match the
proposed centerline profiles. The topographic survey
for the project area will be closely analyzed to identify
drainage problems. It is the intent to add curb and
gutter, and the feasibility report will be addressed
with the stormwater management component of the
project. This area has limited rights-of-way. The
profile will be set to minimize elevation impacts and
disturbance to private property and make certain
that safe and reasonable access is provided to the
residents. The centerline grades will be set to ensure
drainage and stormwater management with the City's
study of this area.
Watermain Replacement — Street and right-of-way
widths within the project area are limited. There are
a substantial number of physical barriers immediately
adjacent to the right-of-way lines and the site which
could be impacted with traditional open trench
replacement for the watermain system. As part of
this task, we will evaluate trenchless replacement
options, including directional drilling and pipe bursting.
The preliminary design for this area will develop
requirements for a temporary water supply system
and the overall plan for the replacement system.
Sewer Televising Review — The City will be televising
the gravity sanitary sewer system within the project
area as part of the feasibility study. WSB will
review the sanitary sewer televisting reports and
records collected by the City and generate a list of
recommended improvements for the City to determine
the final improvements to be incorporated into the
final design of the project.
Stormwater Collection System — WSB will perform
a hydrologic analysis of the project area utilizing
any information provided by the City, as-builts, and
available topographical maps. We will design a
stormwater conveyance system to City standards to fit
with the proposed project. Curb and gutter installation
and design will match the proposed drainage and
collection improvements.
A
WSB
Stormwater Management — WSB will perform a
hydrologic analysis of the project area to comply
with City and watershed requirements. BMPs will be
identified for strategic locations to provide the most
cost effective level of treatment, rate, and volume
control. Topography, soil conditions, and other site
constraints will be reviewed to determine the best
methods and combinations of proposed improvement
features. The proposed facilities will be reviewed
for ponding and storage, as well as phosphorus and
solids removal rates. We will meet with MCWD to
review the options, as permits will be required for this
project.
Right-of-Way/Easement Acquisition Identification —
Once the preliminary design is completed, WSB will
prepare an overall map identifying the location of
additional right-of-way and/or easements needed for
construction. The extent of right-of-way acquisition
is unknown at this time. As a result, the scope
of services proposed herein does not include
the preparation of legal descriptions, exhibits, or
easement negotiation services. These services
may be negotiated following the completion of the
preliminary design phase of the project.
Private Utility Coordination — WSB will coordinate
with Xcel Energy to determine the costs and design
of burying the overhead lines in the area. This
information will be gathered early on in the process
so it may be presented to residents at the initial
neighborhood meeting, as this is usually an additional
cost to residents above and beyond the street
improvement assessment.
Work Plan/Approach / 8
A Proposal to Perform Services for the 2018 Street improvement Project (City Project No. 18-01) for the City of Chanhassen
Input from residents at neighborhood meetings and the
public hearing will provide the basis for the final design
and plan preparation. Once the City Council has formally
ordered the project, WSB will complete the final design
for the following elements:

A Proposal to Perform Services for the 2018 Street Improvement Project (City Project No. 18-01) for the City of Chanhassen
1.3 - Evaluation of Existing Storm Sewer
and Propose Potential Surface Water
Management Systems with the Goal of
Urbanizing the Streets
WSB will incorporate the City's desires for surface water
management outlined in the RFP to provide stormwater
analysis of the project area that will comply with City and
watershed requirements. A portion of the 2018 Street
Improvement Project was analyzed and planned for as
part of previous work completed for the 2016 Street
Improvement Project. WSB will also review information
in the City's stormwater asset management program to
evaluate existing BMP sizing and maintenance needs.
It is anticipated that this project will not exceed 10,000
square -feet of new impervious, so additional stormwater
quality improvements will be on an opportunity basis.
WSB will identify potential opportunities for BMPs in
strategic locations that provide the most effective level
of treatment, rate, and volume control for the money.
Topography, soil conditions and other site constraints
will be reviewed to determine the best methods and
combinations of proposed improvement features.

Z;;;`7 40. -k
1.4 - Environmental/Natural Resources
Review
WSB will prepare a technical report identifying
boundaries and mitigation requirements necessary based
on potential impacts from the proposed project. This task
will be comprised of the following:
Wetland delineation — WSB will perform an onsite
wetland delineation of the defined project area, in
accordance with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
Wetlands Delineation Manual and applicable Regional
Supplement (Midwest Supplement). The MnDNR
National Wetlands Inventory Map indicates that
wetlands may exist near the project area. These
mapped wetlands are associated with a shallow
marsh wetland, located west of Herman Field Park
and southwest of Oriole Ave. The U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation
Service (NRCS) Web Soil Survey for Carver County
indicates hydric soil types are mapped at these
locations.
1.5 - Include an Alternate Bid for Pipe
Bursting or Directionally Drilling Watermain to
be Replaced rather than Open Cut Method
The project scope includes replacement of the existing
6- and 10 -inch cast iron watermain located within
Orchard Lane, Oriole Avenue, Forest Avenue and Forest
Circle. The existing 10 -inch watermain is to be replaced
with a 12 -inch watermain as a part of the project. WSB
will prepare a bid alternate to replace the watermain
located beneath the aforementioned streets by either:
directionally drilling the new watermain and abandoning
in-place the existing watermain, or by using pipe bursting
technology, should soil conditions permit for the upsizing.

1.6 - Include an Alternate Bid for Pipe
Bursting or Directionally Drilling Watermain
underneath Highway 41
The project scope includes replacement of the existing
10 -inch cast iron watermain that extends from Oriole
Avenue beneath State Highway 41 to the east with
12 -inch watermain. WSB will prepare a bid alternate to
replace the watermain located beneath State Highway
41 by either: directionally drilling the new 12 -inch
watermain and abandoning in-place the existing 10 -inch
watermain, or by using pipe bursting technology, should
soil conditions permit for the upsizing.
1.7 - Pavement Investigation and Street
Section Recommendation Report
WSB will review existing pavement distresses in
conjunction with soils recommendations from the
geotechnical exploration conducted with this Scope of
Services. This will allow the development of a pavement
section for both project areas that will address anticipated
traffic loading and subgrade soil conditions, as well
as document the design and justification for the new
pavement section to be constructed with the project.
This will be a technical report submitted as part of the
feasibility report, project plans and specifications.
1.8 - Coordinate and Obtain Soils Work.
including Ground Penetrating Radar Data for
the Project Area
The RFP provides an allotment for geotechnical
engineering services for each of the project areas. WSB
will contract and coordinate these services for design
and construction materials testing. A soils report and
documentation of materials testing during construction
will be provided to the City.
A
WSB
9 - Identify Areas where Right -of -Way or
Easements are Required
Once topographic survey data has been collected for the
project area, WSB will identify and discuss with the City
any existing roadway locations that may encroach upon
private property to determine if roadway easements will
be necessary to reconstruct the streets in their existing
locations. Upon completion of the 60% plan set, WSB
will again evaluate any additional easement needs, both
temporary and permanent, that will be necessary to
facilitate utility construction.
1.10 - Preparation of Assessment Rolls
WSB will prepare the preliminary assessment roll at
the feasibility stage of the project, based on preliminary
costs. The assessment rolls will include all necessary
information including parcel identification numbers,
property owner name and address, along with the basis
of assessment and assessment amount. The preliminary
assessment roll will be updated based on the bids
received for the project at the time of the assessment
hearing, prior to beginning construction.
1.11 - Bidding Services
Upon authorization from the City Council to bid the
project, WSB will provide bidding support services,
including plan and specification reproduction and
distribution, fielding questions from potential bidders
and providing a final engineer's opinion of probable
cost. WSB will also attend the bid opening, prepare a
tabulation of bids received and letter of recommendation
for contract award.

TASK 2 - Surveying for Design Services
WSB's surveys will include topographic data within the
right-of-way, including tree locations and size, locations of
existing right of way, and roadway easement documents
provided by the City within the project area.
Initial underground data to be collected will be primarily
based on a Gopher State One Call design locate.
Following the locate request, WSB will contact each
private utility company to inform them of the project and
to gather mapping of individual private facilities within the
project site. Other work performed and information to be
collected will include:
Topographic Survey — WSB will perform the design
survey at this stage to create base mapping and
accuracy as part of the feasibility study. The
preliminary design survey will be completed using
conventional survey methods with invert verification of
sanitary and storm sewer structures.
Base Mapping — Base mapping will be created from
the survey data collected. Information on private
and public utilities will also be incorporated into the
base map in order to identify potential conflicts at the
feasibility level. As an added benefit, base mapping
and design will be created utilizing 3-D Civil Design
in AutoCAD. WSB has developed design templates
specifically for use in drafting and designing with the
3-D program. Those templates will be provided to
the City, along with all base files for the project, at no
additional cost to the City.

A Proposal to Perform Services for the 2018 Street Improvement Project (City Project No. 18-01) for the City of Chanhassen
Easements and Right -Of -Way Acquisition
The project area currently has limited stormwater collection and management features. Final storm sewer design may
require easement acquisition work, both temporary and permanent. The extent of the work is unknown at this time.
Therefore, services for easement acquisition are proposed to be billed on an hourly basis up to a not -to -exceed fee that
will be negotiated prior to any work completed on the easement acquisition process. Services relating to this work would
include the following:
Prepare legal descriptions and exhibits —
This work would include writing legal descriptions
for the areas of right-of-way and drainage and
utility easements identified as necessary for the
construction of the project.
Notification, field title investigation, and report —
This task includes one onsite visit with each parcel,
documented notification, field title report, parcel
review, and initialization. This task also includes
coordination with surveys, the appraiser, and the
review appraiser.
Offer to purchase —This task includes one meeting
with the City, one on-site meeting with each parcel,
and the formal offer package. This task also
includes coordination with the City Attorney.
Appraisal and appraisal reviews — WSB is also
able to engage a qualified appraiser and review
appraiser for the required appraisals. A firm price
estimate can be obtained once we have provided
the parcel information and specific acquisition
area to the appraiser. At that time, they would be
able to determine the type of appraisal required
and then we would enter into an agreement with
an agreed cost for the appraisal and review.
Negotiation and settlement — This task includes
one meeting with the City, one onsite meeting
with each parcel, and three hours of negotiation,
document revisions, and settlement writing, if
needed. This task also includes coordination with
the City Attorney, recordkeeping, and finalized
parcel files.
