Version 6-8-2017 18 APPENDIX "A" SERVICES TO BE FURNISHED BY CONSULTANT: In fulfillment of this Contract, the CONSULTANT shall comply with the requirements of the appropriate regulations and requirements of the Indiana Department of Transportation and Federal Highway Administration. The scope of this project includes survey and design for sidewalk and curb ramp reconstruction in the area around Kennedy Academy. The area is generally bounded by Lincolnway West to the north, Bendix Drive to the west, Bendix Drive and Orange Street to the south, and Birdsell Street to the east, in the City of South Bend, Indiana. Within this area, there are segments of missing, heaved, or deteriorated sidewalk. An assessment will be completed to evaluate the existing condition of sidewalk throughout the project area and provide recommendations for sidewalk construction/reconstruction prioritization. Based on planning level estimation, it is anticipated that up to 12,000 LFT of 5-foot wide sidewalk and corresponding curb ramps can be constructed with the $2,000,000 in federal and local funding that has been awarded. Curb, driveway approaches, and pavement patching will be constructed when necessary to construct the sidewalk and curb ramps. This project is not intended to correct roadway deficiencies, such as drainage, pavement restoration, pavement markings or signage. Additionally, it is not the intent of this project to address minor ADA deficiencies, such as longitudinal or cross slope of sidewalk and curb ramps, unless the deteriorated condition of the sidewalk or curb ramp also warrants replacement. The CONSULTANT shall be responsible for performing the following activities: A.Project Management & Coordination The CONSULTANT will follow the INDOT Local Public Agency (LPA) Guidance Document, and procedures therein. 1.The CONSULTANT shall manage the activities described in Appendix “A” (Scope of Work) among the project team members.

He or she will be responsible for coordinating the activities of all SUBCONSULTANTs and acting as liaison between the LPA and any outside agencies and/or groups concerning the Project. The project manager will also be responsible for maintaining schedule and budget. 2.The CONSULTANT shall coordinate and attend meetings with the LPA, as appropriate, to facilitate the management of the project design elements. Meetings will be held to discuss technical issues requiring action by the LPA and other third parties. Meetings will be held with the LPA on an as-needed basis to facilitate the acquisition of the necessary project right-of-way parcels. The CONSULTANT shall coordinate and prepare MACOG quarterly reports for review by the LPA prior to submittal to MACOG and attend the quarterly update meetings. 3.The CONSULTANT shall implement quality management and control procedures, to satisfy the project requirements.

B.Sidewalk Priority Assessment 1.The LPA has contracted another firm to perform a City-wide sidewalk assessment. It is anticipated this assessment will be completed by July 1, 2023. The information will provide a rating of the existing sidewalk conditions and will identify areas where sidewalk does not exist. 2.The CONSULTANT shall provide engineering services to develop a Sidewalk Priority Assessment, which shall evaluate the sidewalk conditions within the project area and establish recommendations for sidewalk replacement or construction of new sidewalk.
