You stated that based on the public's wishes to not construct sidewalks,the grades in excess of 10%,the associated expenses with impacts to existing improvements and the expenses related to extensive retaining walls, the City has decided to remove sidewalks from the scope of the Westwind Drive project. During this meeting we discussed how to proceed with finalizing the plans for Westwind Drive. The existing Westwind Drive typical section does not comply with the City's standard typical section. The proposed vertical profile for Westwind Drive was designed to conform to the City's 10-foot parkway typical section. The proposed design resulted in cut on the south side of the road,a curb split in excess of the 0.6 feet recommended for a 28 foot roadway, extensive retaining walls and driveway reconstruction on private property. Removing the sidewalks without revising the vertical profile will not reduce the need for retaining walls and the impacts to private property. We agreed that the redesign of the vertical profile allows the opportunity to reconstruct the roadway in a manner that minimizes cut and matches the existing roadway as close as possible. BGE proposed a revised typical section(See Enclosed Exhibit)that will reduce the curb split to within the recommended parameters,reduce the amount of retaining walls required for construction, and will reduce the extents of driveway reconstruction on private property. The proposed design change is estimated to save the City approximately$100,000 in construction related expenses. It will also minimize the impact on the private property along the street resulting in potentially fewer complaints from residents during construction. Based on the benefits described in the preceding paragraph, we agreed that Brown&Gay Engineers, hlc. will redesign vertical profile for Westwind Drive. Along with redesigning Westwind Drive,you requested that we resubmit one set of construction plans for Utility Clearance Information because of revised grades on Westwind Drive. Upon your request,I informed you that this constituted a scope change and that BGE would submit a contract amendment to complete the requested chan es.

December 21, 2007 Page 2 Preliminary Plans were returned by the City with comment on July 18, 2007. Immediately BGE finalized construction plans based on the comments provided. Preliminary plans were reviewed and approved and two neighborhood meetings were scheduled for October 8,2007 (Merritt and Priddy) and October 18, 2007 (Westwind). In accordance with our contract,Article V, Section K of the STANDARD AGREEMENT FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES,Brown&Gay Engineers, Inc.,requests an equitable adjustment to our contract to account for the additional cost required to perform the City's requested scope change for Westwind Drive. The enclosed man hour breakdown to revise the existing design and revise the previously approved preliminary plans and cross sections includes the time required to make the requested changes. The proposed$11,485 for these services was determined based on the time estimated to complete at the hourly rates outlined Exhibit B-2, Hourly Rate Schedule from the STANDARD AGREEMENT FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES. Please contact me at your earliest convenience, so we can discuss this matter and move to finalizing the project for construction. Sincerely, Carl J.Krogness, P.E.
