We appreciate the honest and straightforward discussion we were able to have regarding the importance of this unique and challenging picJecl, and our continued role as prime consultant of the design team. As we discussed at our meeting,we are submitting this letter as a written request for additional services. Per the provisions of our contract with the City, we are requesting compensation for additional services provided outside the original scope of services. We understand that these additional services are not the direct fault of either EDAW or the City; however, we feel that in an effort to keep the project moving forward and to continue to be fair and equitable, that the City considers approval of the following item: A. Additional Engineering and TXDOT Coordination ($ 23,500.00) At the request of the City, EDAW provided additional services and coordinated with TCB to provide additional engineering and TXDOT coordination to help handle this extremely complex project and to assist the design team to help"push"the project through TXDOT toward a faster approval. TCB has been providing these additional services, and if approved, this additional compensation will be directly allocated to TCB to pay them for those additional services. EDAW is currently working with TCB to review their overall additional services proposal to try to reduce this overall number. Together with this fee reduction, EDAW will be shifting some internal scope and fees to cover the remaining amount of the TCB additional service request. B. Additional Public Meeting/Presentation ($ 1,000.00) EDAW has been requested to attend an additional meeting of the Lancaster Steering UNITED STATES Committee on Friday January 30, 2004. This meeting is in addition to the six (6) meetings that have been provided and are called out in our contract in Section 1, Project EUROPE Management.

DESIGN, PLANNING AND ENVIRON"ENTS WORLDWIDE - t•LJt FORT WORTH MEMORANDUM TO: A. Douglas Rademaker, Director DOE and Marc A. Ott,Assistant City Manager FROM: Dena Johnson, P.E. Project Manager DATE: January 26, 2004 RE: DESIGN FEE AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO URBAN DESIGN FOR A SURFACE TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM METROPOLITAN PROJECT FOR LACASTER AVENUE FROM IH-35 TO HENDERSON STREET. T&PW NOS. GS28-020280232460, GS29-020290232460 AND C115-020115023246. The proposed amendment will reimburse EDAW, Inc. (EDAW) for the following additional services that were provided on the project as requested by the City: The original scope of services provided for limited coordination and meetings between EDAW and TxDOT. However, during design, additional coordination and meetings with TxDOT was necessary in order to expedite the approval of the plans through TxDOT and keep the project on schedule. EDAW has requested the amount of$24,500.00 for the additional services, thereby increasing the contract fee from $1,318,284.00 to $1,432,784.00. I believe this fee is fair and reasonable for the additional services that were provided. Please authorize this additional design fee by your signatures on the attached contract amendment form cc: T&PW files _ I ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT THE CITY OF FORT WORTH * 1000 THROCKMORTON STREET * FORT WORTH, TEXAS 7MM-31 (8I7) 871-7941 * FAX (817) 871-7854 I«Printed on recycled paper
