APPROVED AS TO FORM: CELIA A. BREWER, City Attorney c2o, BY: Assistant City Attorney City Attorney Approved Version 6/12/18 7 DocuSign Envelope ID: E5933C89-81E1-4172-8509-640DOBDA5833 SCOPE OF SERVICES The overarching goal of this work effort is to develop objective design review standards and an expedited permitting program that will facilitate and streamline development of housing in the City of Carlsbad. The State of California has adopted recent legislation to address the State-wide housing shortage and now requires a streamlined and ministerial process for specific residential developments (multi-family, including mixed-use). Objective development/design standards are required by the Housing Accountability Act, Senate Bill 35 Streamlining, and the Housing Crisis Act (Senate Bill 330). These laws require projects to be reviewed against established objective standards rather than through a city's traditional discretionary entitlement process. Objective standards are those that involve no personal or subjective judgment by a public official and are uniformly verifiable by reference to an external and uniform benchmark. Currently, Carlsbad relies on codified standards in combination with design guidelines and a discretionary review processes when considering a multi-family and mixed-use development projects. The proposed work effort will result in objective design standards and a streamlined permit process, which are consistent with state law, for multi-family and mixed-use projects citywide, excluding the Village and Barrio Master Plan area. The nature of the project is a technical exercise focused on identifying the subjectivity in the current development review process and replacing that subjectivity with objective requirements. The project is not intended to revise existing development standards (e.g., the intent is not to change existing building height or setback standards). We have crafted the proposed work plan based on our knowledge of the project context and professional experience. However, we are prepared to adjust the work plan as necessary to best satisfy City objectives, budget, and timeframes. Task 1: Create Objective Design Standards Kickoff Meeting Following the initial review of existing data, the project team will meet with City staff to establish a mutual understanding of the key issues, discuss the scope of work, expectations, and layout significant project milestones, meeting times, and deliverable targets. A virtual City tour to gain additional insight related to community character and recent development projects may also be incorporated into this task. Data Gathering/Document Research and Review 1 DocuSign Envelope ID: E5933C89-81E1-4172-8509-640DOBDA5833 As a first step in the process, RRM will collect and review data that is relevant to the development of: Objective Design Standards; an Expedited Permit Review/Processing Program; and Educational Materials. Data collection will include review of the following: •Carlsbad General Plan •Carlsbad Municipal Code, •Master Plans and Specific Plans, including (note: Village and Barrio Master Plan is not included): o Aviara Master Plan o Bressi Ranch Master Plan o Calavera Hills Master Plan o Carrillo Ranch Master Plan o Green Valley Master Plan o La Costa Downs Specific Plan o North County Plaza Specific Plan o Poinsettia Properties Specific Plan o Poinsettia Shores Master Plan o Ponto Beachfront Village Vision Plan o Quarry Creek Master Plan o Robertson Ranch Master Plan o Sunny Creek Specific Plan o Villages of La Costa Master Plan o Zone 20 Specific Plan •City Council and Planning Division policies related to residential design •Previous development applications, and other planning efforts that have a bearing on future multi-family and mixed-use development. City Staff Deliverable: Staff will provide RRM relevant documents including: staffs current zoning "fix-it" list; a brief summary of the current discretionary review process; and a summary of recent Planning Commission approvals of multi-family and mixed-use projects along with any associated subjective, discretionary changes made to the design of the projects. This information will provide an opportunity for RRM to develop a thorough understanding of the City of Carlsbad's specific issues and opportunities associated with streamlining future multi-family and mixed-use development and ensuring context sensitive, objective design standards. Conduct Consistency Analysis and Prepare Issue Identification Summary Matrix RRM will develop a matrix summarizing necessary revisions to existing City plans, guidelines, and standards. The matrix will identify revisions or amendments (graphics, figures, tables, charts, definitions) needed for existing City documents or plans to ensure consistency regarding the design standards. Findings will be summarized with recommendations for proposed objective design standards language. This will provide an opportunity to discuss the desired approach and modified language prior to developing the Administrative Draft document. 2 DocuSign Envelope ID: E5933C89-81E1-4172-8509-640DOBDA5833 Administrative Draft Objective Design Standards RRM will prepare a comprehensive Administrative Draft of the Objective Design Standards. The standards will provide direction on design elements for multifamily housing and mixed-use projects, such as site planning, building massing and elements, building frontages, entrances, exterior materials, landscaping, utilitarian/mechanical elements of building design, etc. They will be clearly written and tailored with the ultimate users in mind. Design professionals, City staff, and decision-makers will all use this document in the creation and review of project submittals. The intention is to create an easy-to-use and easy-to-administer document and eliminate redundancy and unnecessary regulations otherwise covered by existing documents. The document will be graphically oriented with images and exhibits representing a suggested design topic or standard. Many of the images will contain text callouts helping to illustrate the design intent. Screencheck Draft Design Standards Following the receipt of a single set of redlined comments from staff, RRM will produce the Screencheck Draft document. At this point, all staff comments will have been integrated and this draft will provide an opportunity for final review and comment prior to releasing the public review draft. Public Draft Design Standards RRM will update the screencheck draft with final edits and produce a Public Review Draft of the Design Standards. A companion document will be included to identify revisions needed for other existing City documents. This draft will be distributed to Planning Commission and City Council prior to hearings. Final Objective Design Standards Following the receipt of comments from City staff on the draft Objective Design Standards documents, RRM will produce the Final Admin Review document. This document will provide an opportunity for final review and comment prior to releasing the Final Public document. Project Management Work performed within this task will be associated with necessary coordination between RRM and City staff throughout the process. This will include information teleconferences, correspondence, status updates, record keeping, project coordination, electronic file management, and all other coordination during the project. In addition, bi-weekly check-in conference calls (-30 minutes) with the Project Manager will be provided within this task. DELIVERABLES •Prepare for and attend one (1) kickoff meeting •One (1) summary matrix of proposed amendments to existing City documents •One (1) conference call with City to discuss findings of matrix 3 DocuSign Envelope ID: E5933C89-81E1-4172-8509-640DOBDA5833 •RRM will provide a PDF of the Administrative Draft document for staff review •RRM will provide a PDF of the Screencheck Draft document for staff review •RRM will provide a PDF of the Public Draft document for staff use and public review •One (1) Final PDF Public Objective Design Standards document •Ongoing project coordination and management. Assumes approximately six (6) hours per month for 36 months including one (1) 30-minute check-in conference call with the City up to two (2) times a month (not all calls may be necessary) Task 2: Identify Necessary Amendments to City Documents Zone Code Amendments Coordination RRM will work with City staff to ensure that necessary code amendments are identified to integrate the objective design standards into the City's Zoning Ordinance coordinated with the City consultant. This task will include reviewing and integrating relevant issues identified in staffs current "fix-it list" and coordination with concurrent efforts to prepare a comprehensive Zoning Ordinance update. Review of City plans, guidelines and standards will be performed as part of Task 1: Create Objective Design Standards. Potential conflicts with new state legislation related to project streamlining will also be examined. CEQA Compliance RRM is well qualified to prepare CEQA compliance analysis for the project. However, as the scale of the project and scope have yet to be determined, a cost estimate at this time would be speculative. We would be happy to provide a cost estimate based on further discussion with staff and delineation of work effort. As part of this task, RRM will prepare recommendations for the appropriate CEQA determination (e.g., Negative Declaration) and provide a cost estimate to complete the CEQA analysis. DELIVERABLES •Up to 24 hours of coordination, conference calls, and time associated with summarizing recommended revisions •One (1) CEQA Recommendations Memo and Cost Estimate Task 3: Internal Procedures Project Streamlining RRM will research existing multifamily housing and mixed-use project permit processes, practices, and materials and develop a revised permit processing program. RRM will coordinate with City staff to provide input on updated administrative procedures intended to facilitate and streamline the permitting process for project applicants. A clear, expedited and easy to understand process will also increase staff efficiency with the goal of reducing review time for affordable housing projects by at least 20%. The final deliverable will be a summary 4 DocuSign Envelope ID: E5933089-81E1-4172-8509-640DOBDA5833 memorandum of findings as well as recommended modifications to the process for City consideration. As stated in the RFP, the following quantitative outcomes are expected: •Reduce the City's review and approval time for eligible projects with ³50% affordable units to 60 days if the development contains 150 or fewer housing units •Reduce the City's review and approval time for eligible projects with ³50% affordable units to 90 days if the development contains more than 150 housing units •Reduce project review processing time for the above eligible projects by 30% Staff Training Materials We understand the overall goal for this task is for the City to clearly understand the new objective design standards, the streamlined permitting process and communication tools for the public, and the updated methodology for project review based on the new standards. Efficient communication, processing, and review for City staff is key for successful implementation of the new design standards and ultimate goal of additional affordable housing and community wellbeing. RRM will prepare materials for staff training and education, provide an overview of the educational and marketing materials (graphic simulations), and a summary of the objective standards. RRM will present a PowerPoint and facilitate a three-hour training session for City staff. The session will include a substantial question and answer period to ensure that City staff will leave with a solid understanding of the objective design standards. DELIVERABLES •Summary memorandum of findings as well as recommended modifications to the process for City consideration •One (1) three-hour training session with City staff with supporting PowerPoint presentation •Educational materials for City staff training Task 4: Community Outreach/Planning Commission/City Council Engagement associated with the development of objective design standards will focus on gaining an understanding from City staff, decision makers, and the development community on common issues associated with existing standards and the development review process. As stated previously, the nature of this project is essentially a technical exercise and therefore will require the development of a suite of educational materials to inform the larger Carlsbad community of project objectives and schedule. Project Website, Social Media, and Project Collateral 5 DocuSign Envelope ID: E5933C89-81E1-4172-8509-640DOBDA5833 RRM will develop a project webpage, social media posts, and e-updates provide a means to distribute information to many interested parties and receive feedback. RRM will work with City staff to leverage existing online resources, including social media platforms, and determine how new resources can augment online outreach efforts. In addition, we will prepare a graphically oriented and easy to understand informational flyer to provide an overview of the project, examples of subjective vs. objective language, City contact information, and additional project related information. A frequently asked questions (FAQ) handout/pdf will also be developed to provide additional information and clarify misconceptions. Informational Video This task will include an informational video that can be posted on the project website and will include an informational slide deck with voiceover. Online Survey Online surveys (using Survey Monkey or similar program) provide project information and solicit additional public comments and feedback when it is most convenient for the participant. Stakeholder Interviews #1 As RRM will conduct a series of stakeholder interviews within a single day to interview individuals or interest groups that will share their thoughts on the City's existing discretionary review and approval process. The interviews involve a series of half-hour to one-hour confidential meetings (held via video/teleconference) with various stakeholders, including City staff, select decision makers, and developers/recent applicants. Planning Commission Study Session During the development of the objective design standards, RRM will conduct a study session with the Planning Commission to provide a project update and examples of final product. This will be an opportunity to collect input prior to finalizing the Administrative draft. Stakeholder Interviews #2 RRM will conduct a series of stakeholder interviews within a single day to discuss preliminary objective design standards and recommended modifications to the City review process. The interviews involve a series of half-hour to one-hour confidential meetings (held via video/teleconference) with various stakeholders, including City staff, select decision makers, and developers/recent applicants. Open House Virtual open house to gather input on standards. Hearings and Implementation RRM will coordinate with City staff to prepare for and attend up to two (2) public hearings to adopt the proposed Objective Design Standards and related documents and/or materials. RRM 6 DocuSign Envelope ID: E5933C89-81E1-4172-8509-640DOBDA5833 assumes City staff will be responsible for public notification.

PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY. COMMERCIAL AUTOMOBILE BROAD FORM ENDORSEMENT This endorsement modifies insurance provided under the following: BUSINESS AUTO COVERAGE FORM To the extent that the provisions of this endorsement provide broader benefits to the "insured" than other provisions of the Coverage Form, the provisions of this endorsement apply. 1. BROAD FORM INSURED A. Subsidiaries and Newly Acquired or Formed Organizations The Named Insured shown in the Declarations is amended to include: (1)Any legal business entity other than a partnership or joint venture, formed as a subsidiary in which you have an ownership interest of more than 50% on the effective date of the Coverage Form. However, the Named Insured does not include any subsidiary that is an "insured" under any other automobile policy or would be an "insured" under such a policy but for its termination or the exhaustion of its Limit of Insurance. (2)Any organization that is acquired or formed by you and over which you maintain majority ownership. However, •the Named Insured does not include any newly formed or acquired organization: (a)That is a partnership or joint venture, (b)That is an "insured" under any other policy, (c)That has exhausted its Limit of Insurance under any other policy, or (d)180 days or more after its acquisition or formation by you, unless you have given us notice of the acquisition or formation. Coverage does not apply to "bodily injury" or "property damage" that results from an "accident" that occurred before you formed or acquired the organization. B. Employees as Insureds Paragraph A.1. - WHO IS AN INSURED-of SECTION II - LIABILITY COVERAGE is amended to add: d. Any "employee" of yours while using a covered "auto" you don't own, hire or borrow in your business or your personal affairs. C. Lessors as Insureds Paragraph A.1. - WHO IS AN INSURED - of Section II - Liability Coverage is amended to add: e. The lessor of a covered "auto" while the "auto" is leased to you under a written agreement if: (1)The agreement requires you to provide direct primary insurance for the lessor and (2)The "auto" is leased without a driver. Such a leased "auto" will be considered a covered "auto" you own and, not a covered "auto" you hire. D. Additional Insured if Required by Contract (1) Paragraph A.1. - WHO IS AN INSURED - of Section II - Liability Coverage is amended to add: f. When you have agreed, in a written contract or written agreement, that a person or organization be added as an additional insured on your business auto policy, such person or organization is an "insured", but only to the extent such person or organization is liable for "bodily injury" or "property damage" caused by the conduct of an "insured" under paragraphs a. or b. of Who Is An Insured with regard to the ownership, maintenance or use of a covered "auto." © 2011, The Hartford (Includes copyrighted material Form HA 99 16 03 12 of ISO Properties, Inc., with its permission.) Page 1 of 5 DocuSign Envelope ID: E5933C89-81E1-4172-8509-640DOBDA5833 The insurance afforded to any such additional insured applies only if the "bodily injury" or "property damage" occurs: (1)During the policy period, and (2)Subsequent to the execution of such written contract, and (3)Prior to the expiration of the period of time that the written contract requires such insurance be provided to the additional insured. (2) How Limits Apply If you have agreed in a written contract or written agreement that another person or organization be added as an additional insured on your policy, the most we will pay on behalf of such additional insured is the lesser of: (a)The limits of insurance specified in the written contract or written agreement; or (b)The Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations. Such amount shall be a part of and not in addition to Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations and described in this Section. (3) Additional Insureds Other Insurance If we cover a claim or "suit" under this Coverage Part that may also be covered by other insurance available to an additional insured, such additional insured must submit such claim or "suit" to the other insurer for defense and indemnity. However, this provision does not apply to the extent that you have agreed in a written contract or written agreement that this insurance is primary and non- contributory with the additional insured's own insurance. (4) Duties in The Event Of Accident, Claim, Suit or Loss If you have agreed in a written contract or written agreement that another person or organization be added as an additional insured on your policy, the additional insured shall be required to comply with the provisions in LOSS CONDITIONS 2. - DUTIES IN THE EVENT OF ACCIDENT, CLAIM , SUIT OR LOSS — OF SECTION IV — BUSINESS AUTO CONDITIONS, in the same manner as the Named Insured. E.

If other insurance is also primary, we will share with all that other insurance by the method described in Other Insurance 5.d. (4)Primary And Non-Contributory To Other Insurance When Required By Contract If you have agreed in a written contract or written agreement that this insurance is primary and non-contributory with the additional insured's own insurance, this insurance is primary and we will not seek contribution from that other insurance. Paragraphs (3) and (4) do not apply to other insurance to which the additional insured has been added as an additional insured. When this insurance is excess, we will have no duty to defend the insured against any "suit" if any other insurer has a duty to defend the insured against that "suit". If no other insurer defends, we will undertake to do so, but we will be entitled to the insured's rights against all those other insurers. When this insurance is excess over other insurance, we will pay only our share of the amount of the loss, if any, that exceeds the sum of: (1)The total amount that all such other insurance would pay for the loss in the absence of this insurance; and (2)The total of all deductible and self-insured amounts under all that other insurance. We will share the remaining loss, if any, by the method described in Other Insurance 5.d. 2.

The person(s) or organization(s) are additional insureds when you have agreed, in a written contract, written agreement or because of a permit issued by a state or political subdivision, that such person or organization be added as an additional insured on your policy, provided the injury or damage occurs subsequent to the execution of the contract or agreement, or the issuance of the permit. A person or organization is an additional insured under the provision only for that period of time required by the contract, agreement or permit. With respect to the insurance afforded to the additional insured, this insurance does not apply to: "Bodily injury", "property damage" or "personal and advertising injury" arising out of the rendering of, or failure to render, any professional architectural, engineering or surveying services, including; (a)The preparing, approving, or failure to prepare or approve, maps, shop drawings, opinions, reports, surveys, field orders, change orders, designs or drawings and specification: or (b)Supervisory, inspection, architectural or engineering activities.

How this insurance applies when other insurance is available to an additional insured is described in the Other Insurance Condition in Section E. Liability And Medical Expenses General Conditions.

Other Insurance If other valid and collectible insurance is available for a loss we cover under this Coverage Part, our obligations are limited as follows: When You Add Others As An Additional Insured To This Insurance: That is other insurance available to an additional insured. However, the following provisions apply to other insurance available to any person or organization who is an additional insured under this Coverage Part: (a)Primary Insurance When Required By Contract: This insurance is primary if you have agreed in a written contract, written agreement or permit that this insurance be primary. If other insurance is also primary, we will share with all that other insurance by the method described in c. below. (b)Primary And Non-Contributory To Other Insurance When Required By Contract: If you have agreed in a written contract, written agreement or permit that this insurance is primary and non-contributory with the additional insured's own insurance, this insurance is primary and we will not seek contribution from that other insurance.

Method Of Sharing If all the other insurance permits contribution by equal shares, we will follow this method also. Under this approach, each insurer contributes equal amounts until it has paid its applicable limit of insurance or none of the loss remains, whichever comes first. If any of the other insurance does not permit contribution by equal shares, we will contribute by limits. Under this method, each insurer's share is based on the ratio of its applicable limit of insurance to the total applicable limits of insurance of all insurers. Waiver of Subrogation If you have waived any rights of recovery against any person or organization for all or part of any payment, including Supplementary Payments, we have made under this Coverage Part, we also waive that right, provided you waived your rights of recovery against such person or organization in a contract, agreement or permit that was executed prior to the injury or damage Rev 5.14 Page 2 of 2 DocuSign Envelope ID: E5933C89-81E1-4172-8509-640DOBDA5833 THIS ENDORSEMENT CHANGES THE POLICY.
