Article IV
Obligations of the Engineer
Amendments to Article IV, if any, are included in Attachment C.
A. General
The ENGINEER will serve as the CITY's professional engineering
representative under this Agreement, providing professional engineering
consultation and advice and furnishing customary services incidental thereto.
B. Standard of Care
The standard of care applicable to the ENGINEER's services will be the
degree of skill and diligence normally employed in the State of Texas by
professional engineers or consultants performing the same or similar services
at the time such services are performed.
C. Subsurface Investigations
(1) The ENGINEER shall advise the CITY with regard to the necessity for
subcontract work such as special surveys, tests, test borings, or other

E. Engineer's Personnel at Construction Site
(1) The presence or duties of the ENGINEER's personnel at a construction site,
whether as on-site representatives or otherwise, do not make the ENGINEER
or its personnel in any way responsible for those duties that belong to the
CITY and/or the CITY's construction contractors or other entities, and do not
relieve the construction contractors or any other entity of their obligations,
duties, and responsibilities, including, but not limited to, all construction
methods, means, techniques, sequences, and procedures necessary for
coordinating and completing all portions of the construction work in
accordance with the Contract Documents and any health or safety precautions
required by such construction work. The ENGINEER and its personnel have
no authority to exercise any control over any construction contractor or other
entity or their employees in connection with their work or any health or safety
precautions.
(2) Except to the e�ent of specific site visits expressly detailed and set forth in
Attachment A, the ENGINEER or its personnel shall have no obligation or
responsibility to visit the construction site to become familiar with the progress
or quality of the completed work on the PROJECT or to determine, in general,
if the work on the PROJECT is being perFormed in a manner indicating that the
PROJECT, when completed, will be in accordance with the Contract
Documents, nor shall anything in the Contract Documents or the agreement
between CITY and ENGINEER be construed as requiring ENGINEER to make
exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to discover latent defects in the
work or otherwise check the quality or quantity of the work on the PROJECT.
If, for any reason, the ENGINEER should make an on-site observation(s), on
the basis of such on-site observations, if any, the ENGINEER shall endeavor
to keep the CITY informed of any deviation from the Contract Documents
coming to the actual notice of ENGINEER regarding the PROJECT.
(3) When professional certification of perFormance or characteristics of materials,
systems or equipment is reasonably required to perform the services set forth
in the Scope of Services, the ENGINEER shall be entitled to rely upon such
certification to establish materials, systems or equipment and performance
criteria to be required in the Contract Documents.
F. Opinions of Probable Cost, Financial Considerations, and Schedules
(1) The ENGINEER shall provide opinions of probable costs based on the
current available information at the time of preparation, in accordance
with Attachment A.

conditions; time or quality of perFormance by third parties; quality, type,
management, or direction of operating personnel; and other economic
and operational factors that may materially affect the ultimate PROJECT
cost or schedule. Therefore, the ENGINEER makes no warranty that the
CITY's actual PROJECT costs, financial aspects, economic feasibility, or
schedules will not vary from the ENGINEER's opinions, analyses,
projections, or estimates.
G. Construction Progress Payments
Recommendations by the ENGINEER to the CITY for periodic construction
progress payments to the construction contractor will be based on the
ENGINEER's knowledge, information, and belief from selective sampling and
observation that the work has progressed to the point indicated. Such
recommendations do not represent that continuous or detailed examinations
have been made by the ENGINEER to ascertain that the construction
contractor has completed the work in exact accordance with the Contract
Documents; that the final work will be acceptable in all respects; that the
ENGINEER has made an examination to ascertain how or for what purpose
the construction contractor has used the moneys paid; that title to any of the
work, materials, or equipment has passed to the CITY free and clear of liens,
claims, security interests, or encumbrances; or that there are not other matters
at issue between the CITY and the construction contractor that affect the
amount that should be paid.
H. Record Drawings
Record drawings, if required, will be prepared, in part, on the basis of
information compiled and furnished by others, and may not always represent
the exact location, type of various components, or exact manner in which the

Reference: Proposal for Professional Civil Engineering, Landscape Architectural
and Land Surveying Services
Gateway Park Soccer Field Development
Dear Scott:
Dunaway Associates, L.P. (DA) is pleased to submit for your consideration this proposal for
professional civil engineering, landscape architectural and land surveying services on the above-
referenced project. Based on the City's RFP dated October 27, 2006, which includes the modification
of existing construction documents prepared by Dunaway Associates, L.P., dated August 21, 2001.
The modification of the documents will allow for the bidding and construction of soccer fields 1 and 2,
while eliminating fields 3 and 4 from the documents. In addition to the fields, the revised documents
will include fencing (with maintenance gate(s)), access walks, turF and turf establishment, irrigation,
parking (per original plans), lighting (fields and parking lot) and typical field amenities (bleachers,
etc.). We believe the following scope of services will meet your needs for this project:
SCOPE OF WORK
Topoqraphic Survev — DA will provide a Topographic Survey of the area defined below.
It is DA's understanding that since the preparation of the August 2001 documents that a
portion of the parking lot has been constructed, the topographic survey will be limited to
field verifying the location and elevations of the constructed portion of the parking lot.
The remainder of the proposed work area has remained undisturbed since the 2001
survey, so no topographic survey is anticipated or included as part of this scope of
services. One foot interval contours will be development based upon the results of the
measurements taken. Existing visible utility facilities will be located and depicted on the
face of the survey along with any other visible improvements situated within the defined
area. The vertical datum upon which the elevations are based will be the City datum as
shown on the existing August 2001 documents. As owner of the property, Client hereby
authorizes Surveyor to enter upon the property for the purposes of conducting
Surveyor's work thereon. Land Surveying in the State of Texas is regulated by the
Texas Board of Professional Land Surveying, Building A, Suite 156, 12100 Park 35
Circle, Austin, Texas 78753, telephone number (512) 239-5263.

prevention plan template for use by the Owner's contractor. This template will be prepared in
accordance with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) regulations for the
Texas Point Discharge Elimination System (TPDES). It should be noted that it will be the

template and for perForming the required inspections and maintenance reports. DA will assist
the Owner in completion of the required Notice-of-Intent (NOI) that will need to be filed by
both the Owner and the Contractor.

b. Attend the pre-bid and pre-construction meetings.
c. Provide responses to bidders' questions and prepare necessary addenda. The City

d. Review and respond on Owner's behalf for shop drawing submittals related to
elements of the design for which DA is responsible.
e. Review and respond to written Requests for Information from Owner's contractor
regarding elements of the design for which DA is responsible. Provide plan
interpretation and clarification as required.
f. Make occasional site visits during construction for a cursory review of progress of
construction. The number of site visits included in this scope of work is eight (8). Site
visits and meetings requested beyond this number will be billed hourly as an
additional service. Please note that DA does not provide construction inspection
services. We recommend that you retain your geotechnical engineer or use of city
inspectors to provide inspection of the proposed improvements.

We appreciate the opportunity to assist you with this project and look forward to its success.
