9.Confidentiality of LPA Information.
A.The CONSULTANT understands and agrees that data, materials, and information disclosed to
the CONSULTANT may contain confidential and protected information. Therefore, the
CONSULTANT covenants that data, material, and information gathered, based upon or disclosed
to the CONSULTANT for the purpose of this Contract, will not be disclosed to others or
discussed with third parties without the LPA’s prior written consent.
B.The parties acknowledge that the Services to be performed by the CONSULTANT for the LPA
under this Contract may require or allow access to data, materials, and information containing
Social Security numbers and maintained by the LPA in its computer system or other records. In
addition to the covenant made above in this section and pursuant to 10 IAC 5-3-1(4), the
CONSULTANT and the LPA agree to comply with the provisions of IC 4-1-10 and IC 4-1-11.
If any Social Security number(s) is/are disclosed by the CONSULTANT, the CONSULTANT
agrees to pay the cost of the notice of disclosure of a breach of the security of the system in
addition to any other claims and expenses for which it is liable under the terms of this Contract.
10.Delays and Extensions. The CONSULTANT agrees that no charges or claim for damages shall be
made by it for any minor delays from any cause whatsoever during the progress of any portion of the
Services specified in this Contract. Such delays, if any, shall be compensated for by an extension of
time for such period as may be determined by the LPA subject to the CONSULTANT's approval, it
being understood, however, that permitting the CONSULTANT to proceed to complete any services,
or any part of them after the date to which the time of completion may have been extended, shall in no
way operate as a waiver on the part of the LPA of any of its rights herein. In the event of substantial
delays or extensions, or change of any kind, not caused by the CONSULTANT, which causes a material
change in scope, character or complexity of work the CONSULTANT is to perform under this Contract,
the LPA at its sole discretion shall determine any adjustments in compensation and in the schedule for
completion of the Services. CONSULTANT must notify the LPA in writing of a material change in the
work immediately after the CONSULTANT first recognizes the material change.
11.DBE Requirements.
A.Notice is hereby given to the CONSULTANT and any SUB-CONSULTANT, and both agree,
that failure to carry out the requirements set forth in 49 CFR Sec. 26.13(b) shall constitute a
breach of this Contract and, after notification and failure to promptly cure such breach, may result
in termination of this Contract or such remedy as INDOT deems appropriate. The referenced
section requires the following assurance to be included in all subsequent contracts between the
CONSULTANT and any SUB-CONSULTANT:
The CONSULTANT, sub recipient or SUB-CONSULTANT shall not discriminate
on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the performance of this Contract.
The CONSULTANT shall carry out applicable requirements of 49 CFR Part 26 in
the award and administration of DOT-assisted contracts. Failure by the
CONSULTANT to carry out these requirements is a material breach of this Contract,
which may result in the termination of this Contract or such other remedy, as
INDOT, as the recipient, deems appropriate.
B.The CONSULTANT shall make good faith efforts to achieve the DBE percentage goal that may
be included as part of this Contract with the approved DBE SUB-CONSULTANTS identified on
its Affirmative Action Certification submitted with its Letter of Interest, or with approved
amendments. Any changes to a DBE firm listed in the Affirmative Action Certification must be
requested in writing and receive prior approval by the LPA and INDOT’s Economic Opportunity
Division Director. After this Contract is completed and if a DBE SUB-CONSULTANT has
performed services thereon, the CONSULTANT must complete, and return, a Disadvantaged
Business Enterprise Utilization Affidavit (“DBE-3 Form”) to INDOT’s Economic Opportunity
Division Director. The DBE-3 Form requires certification by the CONSULTANT AND DBE
SUB-CONSULTANT that the committed contract amounts have been paid and received.

A.Pursuant to I.C. 22-9-1-10, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Americans with Disabilities Act,
the CONSULTANT shall not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment, to

conditions or privileges of employment or any matter directly or indirectly related to employment,

Contract also signifies compliance with applicable federal laws, regulations, and executive orders
prohibiting discrimination in the provision of services based on race, color, national origin, age, sex,
disability or status as a veteran.
B The CONSULTANT understands that the LPA is a recipient of federal funds. Pursuant to that
understanding, the CONSULTANT agrees that if the CONSULTANT employs fifty (50) or more
employees and does at least $50,000.00 worth of business with the State and is not exempt, the
CONSULTANT will comply with the affirmative action reporting requirements of 41 CFR 60-1.7.
The CONSULTANT shall comply with Section 202 of executive order 11246, as amended, 41 CFR
60-250, and 41 CFR 60-741, as amended, which are incorporated herein by specific reference.
Breach of this covenant may be regarded as a material breach of Contract.
It is the policy of INDOT to assure full compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,
the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Vocational Rehabilitation Act and
related statutes and regulations in all programs and activities. Title VI and related statutes require
that no person in the United States shall on the grounds of race, color or national origin be
excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under
any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance. (INDOT’s Title VI enforcement
shall include the following additional grounds: sex, ancestry, age, income status, religion and
disability.)
C.The CONSULTANT shall not discriminate in its selection and retention of contractors, including
without limitation, those services retained for, or incidental to, construction, planning, research,
engineering, property management, and fee contracts and other commitments with persons for
services and expenses incidental to the acquisitions of right-of-way.
D.The CONSULTANT shall not modify the Project in such a manner as to require, on the basis of
race, color or national origin, the relocation of any persons. (INDOT's Title VI enforcement will
include the following additional grounds: sex, ancestry, age, income status, religion and
disability).
E.The CONSULTANT shall not modify the Project in such a manner as to deny reasonable access
to and use thereof to any persons on the basis of race, color or national origin. (INDOT’s Title VI
enforcement will include the following additional grounds; sex, ancestry, age, income status,
religion and disability.)
F.The CONSULTANT shall neither allow discrimination by contractors in their selection and
retention of subcontractors, leasors and/or material suppliers, nor allow discrimination by their
subcontractors in their selection of subcontractors, leasors or material suppliers, who participate
in construction, right-of-way clearance and related projects.
G.The CONSULTANT shall take appropriate actions to correct any deficiency determined by itself
and/or the Federal Highway Administration (“FHWA”) within a reasonable time period, not to
exceed ninety (90) days, in order to implement Title VI compliance in accordance with INDOT’s
assurances and guidelines.

required by the Regulations or directives issued pursuant thereto, and shall permit access

Regulations, orders and instructions. Where any information required of a CONSULTANT
is in the exclusive possession of another who fails or refuses to furnish this information the
CONSULTANT shall so certify to the LPA, or INDOT as appropriate, and shall set forth
what efforts it has made to obtain the information.

including sanctions for noncompliance: Provided, however, that, in the event a
CONSULTANT becomes involved in, or is threatened with, litigation with a
SUBCONSULTANT or supplier as a result of such direction, the CONSULTANT may
request the LPA to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the LPA, and, in
addition, the CONSULTANT may request the United States to enter into such litigation to
protect the interests of the United States.

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)

overall project management in addition to being the LPA’s direct link to the design team for issues
concerning administration and technical execution. 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

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. The CONSULTANT shall coordinate these procedures with the
SUBCONSULTANTs at each plan submittal stage for continuity of design standards and plans
throughout the project limits.
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.
Version 6-8-2017

3.The CONSULTANT shall use the City-wide assessment as a reference to identify areas of
sidewalk that need to be replaced or constructed. As these areas are identified, the CONSULTANT
shall visit the project site to confirm the City-wide assessment’s findings.
4.As part of the assessment analysis and development, the CONSULTANT shall coordinate with
Kennedy Academy to identify primary routes for students walking to school.
5.Based on construction pricing available, planning level estimates will be developed to identify the
amount of sidewalk, curb ramps, and incidental construction that can be constructed with the
funding available for the project.
6.The assessment report shall document the findings of the evaluation and provide recommendations
as to areas of sidewalk and curb ramps to be prioritized for reconstruction. When possible, the
recommendations shall focus on stretches of continuous sidewalk to be replaced rather than spot
improvements.
7.Following completion of the assessment and determination of the sidewalk areas to be improved,
the CONSULTANT shall correspond with Kennedy Academy to provide information on the
planned improvements.
C.Topographic Field Survey
1.Following completion of the Existing Condition Assessment, the CONSULTANT shall provide
the topographic field survey required for preparation of design plans in conformance with the
requirements of the Indiana Department of Transportation Design Manual, Part III, Location
Surveys, a copy of which is on file with the CONSULTANT and same is incorporated herein by

a.The area of survey will be based upon the areas recommended for reconstruction in the
Sidewalk Assessment Report. It is anticipated the length of survey will be up to approximately
15,000 LFT and include the area between the edge of pavement and existing curb to
approximately 15 feet beyond the existing sidewalk or the front of the existing adjacent
building, whichever is nearest. Survey shots along the centerline of the roadway will be
collected every 100 feet.
b.The topographic mapping will include features such as curbs, sidewalks, traffic poles, outline
of landscape areas, outline of wooded areas, trees over 6-inch diameter, etc.
c.Establish horizontal and vertical control throughout the project limits. Horizontal control will

based on the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88).
d.Locate and provide rim elevations for castings (manholes, catch basins and curb inlets) within
the survey limits. Sanitary and storm structures will not be detailed to identify invert elevations,
flow direction, and type and size of pipes. Structures will be shown on the plan sheets without
pipe connections.
e.Known subsurface utilities will be depicted based on the field survey of surface markings
provided by Indiana Underground Plant Protection Service.
f.Create topographic base map from the survey data.
g.Right of way/property lines based on available field investigation and recorded subdivision
plats, apparent right of way will be shown for any areas lying outside of a subdivision. Lot lines
will be depicted per the recorded subdivision plats or GIS information.
D.Sidewalk Design and Plans
The CONSULTANT shall provide engineering and design services to prepare plans, calculations, cost
estimates, and other submittal documents in accordance with requirements outlined in the INDOT LPA
Process Guidance Document for Local Federal Aid Projects, dated March 2022 and the INDOT Design
Manual (IDM). The limits of proposed sidewalk and curb ramp improvements will be based on the

recommendation of the Sidewalk Assessment Report and direction from the LPA. The length of
proposed new sidewalk is anticipated to be approximately 12,000 LFT of 5-foot sidewalk.
The CONSULTANT shall prepare construction plans in accordance with the following:
1.Reconstruct sidewalk and curb ramps through the areas recommended in the Sidewalk Assessment
Report and up to the amount that can be constructed with the funding available to the LPA for this
project. The sidewalk is anticipated to be 5 feet wide, except where it is adjacent to the curb, in
which case the sidewalk will be constructed at 6 feet wide. In areas of limited space due to right of
way constraints, utilities, or other elements, the sidewalk width will be reduced to 4 feet, with
approval from the LPA. All new sidewalk and curb ramp designs shall be ADA compliant.
2.Existing curb, driveway approaches, and pavement replacement or patching will be reconstructed
to the limits necessary to construct the sidewalk and curb ramps.
