Attachment A — Scope of Services
PHASE I
Task 1
Months 1 through 9
Project Management
Task 1 is ongoing throughout the project. Kimley-Horn and Associates (KHA) will provide coordination
and management of all internal elements of the project. Concurrently we will coordinate with the City's
project manager to meet with intra-City, departments and other governmental agencies as necessary to move
the project forward. We anticipate up tb 14 meetings with key City staff. (See Task 5 for more detail)
Kimley-Hom will also monitor all budgetary aspects of the project including the sub -contract work.
Quality assurance and control will be ongoing throughout the project.
Subtask 1.1 Team coordination
KHA will direct all aspects of project work by the sub -consultants to ensure coordination and a shared
strategy. We will meet with the team monthly and send all team members monthly updates with upcoming
and anticipated tasks, assignments, and project milestones.
Subtask 1.2 City Coordination
KHA will meet with the City and its agencies monthly. At those meetings we will discuss project
direction, immediate next steps, anticipated or long-range actions, milestones, coordination factors, and
project progress.
The KHA Project Manager will be in Fort Worth for 26 days during the life of the project. During the first
four months, the Project Manager will be in Fort Worth twice a month for two days each time for a total of
four days each month. During the final five months of the project, the Project Manager will be in Fort
Worth at least once a month for two days each time for a total of two days each month.
KHA will prepare monthly reports for (ity review. These will include the accomplishments to date,
revisions or additional detail for up -coming work, and other information that may effect the .project or
require refinement.
Subtask 1.3 Budget
KHA uses a Management Information System to monitor all aspects of project expense. This will be used
to keep the project on schedule and bud et. As a lump sum contract we will be providing the City with
invoices that show the percent of the project that is complete. This will include consultant, sub -consultant,
and expense portions of the project.
Deliverables: monthly reports, as part of the invoicing system, outlining work -to -date, milestones, and
upcoming events.
06/14/99
Task 2
Month 1 through 2
Initial Inventory and Analysis
The first step of this project is to understand the situation on North Main today. This includes a survey of
urban design, land use, mobility, preliminary engineering, and economic development. We will collect
information and analyze it in each discipline as well as in the aggregate.
This analysis will be the basis for our initial work and development of alternatives.
Subtask 2.1 Urban Design
The KHA team will determine what base maps and scales will serve the purposes of understanding the
project areas. The City, coordinating with the KHA team, will create a set of base maps, including utility
locations, that cover the entire project as well as sub -areas. These will be at a variety of scales and will
serve all anticipated project needs.
The KHA team will conduct a field trip with various team members to photograph, map, and study the
existing conditions along the 3.3 mile corridor. The purpose of this is to identify a basic concept for the
corridor. This will include establishing goals and objectives that are achievable and sustainable.
I
Opportunities for transit oriented development (TOD) will be analyzed and, if such opportunities exist, they
will be included as part of the urban design strategy. This will be done in conjunction with the mobility
task 2.2 below.
Subtask 2.2 Mobility
The KHA team will use available traffic data from the City, the Council of Governments, and TxDOT to
analyze the current traffic and transportation conditions of North Main. This information will be used to
analyze potential impacts to the circulation of vehicular, transit (including trolley), pedestrian, and bicycle
traffic as it relates to the development of various alternatives.
The City will map access to North Main and its intersection movements. The City, working with KHA will
analyze conflicts among modes and at intersections to establish a base condition.
Based on identifying current conditions and analyzing projected changes to these modes we will identify
problem areas and opportunities for improvement. This analysis will be an integral part of creating
alternatives that undoubtedly will seek to make this corridor more pedestrian friendly.
Subtask 2.3 Land Use and Economic Development
The City will identify and map existing land uses and zoning along the corridor to establish the current
condition. During the second workshop, the City, and KHA working together will identify up to three
alternatives for development opportunities.
The City and KHA working together will compare the current use to potential build out and analyze the
uses, what is likely to remain, and what is likely to change.
KHA will collect demographic and market inforniafion so that we can understand what land uses are
currently working well, identify any underutilized portions, and identify potential uses that increase the
economic potential of the corridor. KHA will also do a barrier analysis to determine what is currently
preventing the development of these properties. This will enable us in later tasks to develop an economic
strategy for corridor redevelopment.
Deliverables: The KHA team will submit maps and report that outlines the existing conditions and
identifies up to three opportunities for improvements along the corridor.
06/14/99
Task 3
Month 3 and 4
Urban Design
During this task we will meld the work done by KHA team members as described in Task 2.1 through 2.5;
We will create three alternatives to be considered by the public, the City, and the Oversight Committee.
Subtask 3.1 Alternatives
Based on our analysis and feedback from the City, the public, the Oversight Committee, and other
agencies, we will develop three alternatives. These will show concepts and describe their implications in
broad terms. We will create maps and supporting sketches that convey the various concepts. Goals and
objectives of each alternative will be identified. Alternative funding sources will be identified as part of this
package.
Subtask 3.2 Preferred Alternative Development
Based on analysis of the various alternatives, a preferred alternative will be detailed and brought to a more
refined level so that functionality, costs, and engineering can be assessed. The final redevelopment plan
will meld together the urban design and engineering concepts into one. Maps, drawings, and diagrams will
accompany a text that outlines and implementation strategy. Costs, architectural guidelines, phasing,
incentives, zoning changes, management strategies, and other tools as appropriate will be incorporated into
the redevelopment document.
Components of the preferred alternative will include:
• A Framework plan for redesign and development including any TOD opportunities
• A kit of parts for addition of street fumishings,I utilities and landscape
• Guidelines for architectural facade improvements as well as massing, bulk, materials, and fenestration
will be a joint effort with the City's project manager taking responsibility for creating the guideline
document and text
• Economic development tools for redevelopment including incentives and joint development
opportunities
• Identification of phases for development and i4iplementation along with preliminary cost estimates
• Identification of potential funding sources to h 1p leverage private and public funding and financing
• Suggestions for code, policy, management and zoning changes that will facilitate the implementation
of the preferred alternative.
• Identification of a pilot project for implementation.
Deliverables: Schematic drawings, maps, sketche and supporting text that can be easily used to involve
and engage the Oversight Committee, the City, the public, and other interested parties. These may be
organized into a newsletter style report if that is ap ropriate. A preliminary report on the items identified in
task 3.2. Drawings and supporting text will be co bind in Task 5 to create a final document that
describes the redevelopment plan.
3 06/14/99
Task 4
Month 4
Mobility and Engineering Report
The purpose of this task is to make and initial assessment of the entire corridor so that we can understand
where the problems and opportunities are. Based on this assessment, the engineering team will work with
the urban design concept to identify a preliminary project for implementation.
Subtask 4.1 Assessment of the corridor and identification of potential pilot projects
The KHA Team will conduct an assessment of the corridor to determine the overall condition of the
systems and the feasibility of improvements. The assessment will focus on utility and civil engineering
needs. KHA will prepare a technical memorandum of this assessment.
KHA will also identify initial pilot project candidates that respond to the urban design concept created in
Task 3. KHA will prepare a memorandum that will focus on what can realistically be accomplished for the
$1.32 million left in the budget after Phase I is complete.
($1.6 million - $180,000 - $100,000 = $1.32 million)
Subtask 4.2 Costs
A general cost overview will be prepared for the redevelopment of this corridor. This may be limited by
the ability to determine details needed to estimate costs due to the schematic nature of the corridor concept
developed in earlier tasks. Opinions of probable cost for the final pilot project will be identified. Cost
saving measures and the likely next projects that should be phased will be identified with a cost estimate
attached.
Subtask 4.3 Mobility
Using the information provided by the City, the engineering team will produce a technical memorandum
assessing the mobility issues with suggestions for how to incorporate the trolley into the overall street
function. We will include up to three typical cross -sections to show the integration of various travel modes.
Subtask 4.4 Phasing
The KHA team will prepare a phasing plan that identifies an initial project and the relative timing of
subsequent efforts to implement the preferred alternative. This will include physical projects to be built
and may include management strategies, policy, zoning, and regulation strategies or maintenance programs,
depending on what the preferred alternative requires.
Deliverables: A preliminary engineering report and supporting documentation as it relates to the
development of the alternatives and the final redevelopment plan. The purpose of the engineering reports is
to ensure that identified pilot project can be identified for implementation and funding purposes, and to be
able to determine the appropriations and other requirements needed the pilot project. A phasing plan for
future projects will be included as part of the preliminary engineering report.
4 06/14/99
Task 5
Months 1 through 9
Meetings, Reports, and Public Involvement
Communication efforts will involve these major groups:
• The City and its departments
■ The Oversight Committee
• Property and business owners
In addition, there will be three public meetings held and up to 10 meetings with small groups or individuals
in relation to this project. These small meetings will be conducted with the KHA technical team and City
staff to ensure that those effected by the project have an opportunity to discuss project details as it relates to
their operations. For example, business access, construction schedules, and special needs are likely topics.
Subtask 5.1 City and Oversight Committee meetings
The consultant will meet monthly with the City and its departments, other governmental agencies, and the
Oversight Committee to review the progress of the project. A written progress report will be provided with
each month's invoice.
Subtask 5.2 Public Meetings
There will be three public meetings held. The first will be to initiate the project and listen to ideas,
concerns, and comments offered by the public. The second will be to discuss the alternatives and ask for
comments, opinions and suggestions on the developed alternatives. A final public meeting will be held to
refine the preferred alternative. To support the public involvement effort, we will produce a project
brochure and up to three newsletters.
These meetings will have an open house format so that the community can have individual questions
answered. KHA will provide a meeting summary and collect comment cards for the public record.
Subtask 5.3 Property and business owner meetings
Specific meetings with property owners and small groups will likely be necessary to further project goals.
We will conduct up to 10 such meetings throughout the project. These meetings will take place primarily
during tasks 2, 3, and 4 as we move from analysis to urban design and engineering and will be conducted
by the consultant design and engineering staff with assistance from the City or Oversight Committee.
Subtask 5.4 Additional public involvement efforts
The City will maintain a database for public contact in this corridor including adding new names and
addresses throughout the course of the project. The KHA team will design and print meeting notifications,
the City will be responsible for mailings. KHA will also prepare a meeting notice (in both Spanish and
English) to be posted the City. The City's project manager will be listed as the contact person for the
public and will reply to request for information.
Subtask 5.5 Reports
Reports will be sent to the City's project manager on a monthly basis. In addition, memorandums on
specific subjects will be produced and submitted to the City as outlined in Tasks 3 and 4.
The final corridor redevelopment plan of the preferred alternative will detail the preferred alternative plan
and include more comprehensive information, drawings, and sketches to convey the vision as well as
outline a strategy to achieve it.
Deliverables: Monthly reports and memoranda on specific topics will be submitted during the nine months
of the project. We will meet monthly with the City and Oversight Committee. Three public meetings will
be held and three newsletters produced. We will have up to 10 meetings with small groups or individuals
interested in the pilot project. KHA will prepare a final report on the urban design concept for the project.
06/14/99
Task 6
Month two and four
Wise Council
The kimley-Horri team includes a Wise Council, or group of experts, who join the team for peer review.
They will bring not only beneficial experience, but also fresh look at our alternatives and proposals. We
will work with them at least twice during the first phase of this project.
The KHA team will hold two workshops. The purpose of these will be to bring the consultant team
together for two days to develop the potential alternatives and conduct a public open house.
Subtask 6.1 Workshop 1
The KHA team, ZGF and other specialists as needed and allowed by budget will conduct a workshop to
finalize the inventory and analysis stage (Task 2) and define the alternatives to be developed. As part of
the workshop, the Oversight Committee and the City staff will be invited to review alternative options. The
Workshop will end with a public open house for review of the developed alternatives with members of the

Phase II
Months 5 through 9
A pilot project will be identified as part of Phase I. Because the pilot project is unknown at this time,
preliminary engineering, project management and construction documents funds of $100,000 have been
reserved to bring the pilot project through constructions documents so that it can be bid and constructed.
This project may be an engineering project and incorporate some other efforts such as creation of a
management district, a joint development project, or a maintenance agenda. Other efforts that could be part
of a Phase II project include:
• Walking Tour
• Public Art Program
• Site Development for a public/private venture
• Events Planning
• Business recruitment and retention program
• Merchants organization
• Marketing Program
• Public Transportation Program to enhance existing system
The final determination will be made at the end of Phase I.

SUBJECT PLANNING AND ENGINEERING SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH KIMLEY-HORN AND
ASSOCIATES, INC. FOR THE NORTH MAIN CORRIDOR FROM THE TARRANT
COUNTY COURTHOUSE TO 28TH STREET
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a planning and
engineering services agreement with Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. in the amount of $280,000 to
produce the following:
Phase I - Conceptual urban design and detailed streetscape improvements plan for the
North Main corridor between the Tarrant County Courthouse and 28th Street in
the historic stockyards area.
Phase II - Engineering plans and construction documents for the first construction phase
of the project.
DISCUSSION:
The 1998 Capital Improvement Program included $1,560,000 for corridor streetscape improvements to
North Main Street between the Tarrant County Courthouse and the historic stockyards area. An
oversight committee was established and held its initial meeting in October 1998. The goal of this
project, established by the North Main Oversight Committee and the City, is to create an attractive,
safe, and pedestrian -oriented environment that will increase tourism and stimulate economic activity
along the North Main corridor.
A consultant selection committee was formed to review the proposals submitted for the North Main
Streetscape Project. The committee was composed of representatives from the North Main Oversight
Committee and City staff. The committee recommends a planning and engineering services contract
with Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. to produce Phase I and II documents for the North Main corridor
in the amount of $280,000. Staff considers this fee to be reasonable for the specific scope of services
to be accomplished. Phase I and Phase II will consist of the following:
PHASE I
• Project Management
• Initial Inventory and Analysis
• Urban Design
• Mobility and Engineering Report
• Meetings, Reports, and Public Involvement
• Wise Council (a group of experts who join the consultant team for peer review)
PHASE II
• Construction Documents for the Pilot Project
