DLZ is committed to exceeding the schedule expectations, and we are ready to <br />accelerate the schedule should funding become available for an earlier letting. <br />During the first 90 days after being given Notice to Proceed, the DLZ Team will get started with <br />the following tasks: <br />• Conduct a project kickoff meeting with the City to establish project goals, define more specific <br />areas of focus, and confirm our lines of communication. <br />• Once the project Area has been condensed, field verify sidewalks and curb ramps for ADA <br />compliance and determine topographic survey needs. <br />• Complete field visits for documenting environmental resources, if necessary. <br />• Perform topographic survey, verify existing right of way, and initiate any property surveys as <br />required. <br />• Initiate Early Coordination with State and Federal environmental resources. <br />• Initiate coordination with all utilities to verify locations of electrical, natural gas, water, and <br />sanitary sewer lines in the vicinity of the project. <br />ACTION PLAN FOR FIRST 90 DAYS <br />*Schedule assumes no right of way <br />acquisition is required. <br />Right of Way <br />Based upon our preliminary research of the GIS property lines, it generally appears that the <br />construction can be limited to stay within the existing right of way. However, DLZ’s experience <br />has shown that in some instances, areas around curb ramps may require additional right of way <br />to meet ADA requirements. Additionally, federal funding requires that appropriate documentation <br />of right of way be on record. As such, DLZ will perform title research to confirm the existing right <br />of way. If there are areas of insufficient documentation, or where additional right of way may be <br />needed to construct the desired improvements, our team will work diligently with INDOT and the <br />City of South Bend to find alternatives to reduce or eliminate the right of way impact. If permanent <br />or temporary right of way is required, the we will be ready to expedite Right of Way Engineering <br />and Acquisition services with your approval.
