Agenda Item• 12 CITY OF SANTA CLARITA AGENDA REPORT CONSENT CALENDAR CITY MANAGER APPROVAL: Li ' DATE: April 22, 2025 SUBJECT: CONTRACTS FOR BUILDING PLAN REVIEW, BUILDING INSPECTION, AND PERMIT -RELATED PROFESSIONAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT: Community Development PRESENTER: John Caprarelli RECOMMENDED ACTION City Council: 1. Award one-year contracts to Scott Fazekas & Associates, JAS Pacific, TRB and Associates, and Shums Coda Associates for building plan review, building inspection, and permit -related professional services for a combined total annual amount not to exceed $1,000,000, effective Fiscal Year 2025-26. 2. Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute up to four additional one-year renewal options beginning in Fiscal Year 2026-27, not to exceed the combined total annual contract amount and contingent upon the appropriation of funds by the City Council in the annual budget for such Fiscal Year. 3. Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute all contracts and associated documents, subject to City Attorney approval. BACKGROUND The City of Santa Clarita (City) regularly uses contractual services on an as -needed basis to assist staff with building plan review, inspection, and permit -related professional services for new buildings during periods of high construction activity. In 2024, the Building and Safety division issued 5,481 permits and performed 37,003 building inspections for more than $409 million in new construction. This is consistent with the average activity levels within the past five years. Building and Safety revenue has exceeded expectations; during the past four years, the division has collected an average of $10.4 million in revenue per year. Contractual support for building plan review and building inspection helps supplement staff s efforts to reduce plan Page 1 Packet Pg. 362 check turnaround time and manage the inspection workload as demand fluctuates. Contractual services also help maintain appropriate staffing and customer service levels. The City conducted a Request for Proposal (RFP) to solicit proposals from qualified consulting firms to provide building plan review, building inspection, and permit -related professional services. The RFP was published and circulated via the City's e-procurement system, BidNet, on February 11, 2025. The City transmitted the solicitation to 1,864 vendors on BidNet, of which 50 vendors downloaded the RFP and 10 companies provided proposals for consideration. These proposals were reviewed and evaluated based on each company's ability to meet the specific needs of the City. An evaluation panel comprised of City staff scored the responses using the following categories of weighted criteria: • Staff qualifications • References • Proposed schedule and available on -site services • Expediency of turn -around times for plan check services • Thoroughness and clarity of proposal The evaluation team scored the responses based on a 100-point system, with the results outlined below: Rank Company 1. Scott Fazekas & Associates 2. JAS Pacific 3. TRB and Associates 4. Shums Coda Associates 5. 4LEAF, Inc. 6. Bureau Veritas 7. West Coast Code Consultants, Inc 8. SAFEbuilt (Interwest) 9.

By utilizing the four firms selected, staff will have the flexibility to assign projects to contract building plan reviewers and/or inspectors who are best suited to meet the City's needs, while retaining appropriate staffing and customer service levels. Revenue generated from the fees collected for plan review, expedited plan review, and building permits will help offset these costs. If approved, contracts entered into pursuant to the RFP will have the option for four additional one-year renewals. The City Council's approval of the recommended action will help the City maintain desired customer service levels.

owner of SFA and has been in the Building Consulting Services field for over 50 years. He formed SFA to offer building safety services exclusively to governmental agencies and has been providing building plan review services since 1996. SFA has performed hundred's of thousands of plan reviews which have included every type of construction and occupancy group in the building spectrum. SFA has also encountered many unique administrative policies and processes in working with the building officials in client jurisdictions which may have arisen due to tight project scheduling, application of alternate design methods or simply due to unique project characteristics. SFA tailors services to the needs of the City. SFA does not subcontract out building plan review services and retains full-time staff who work in our office, not remotely. SFA has numerous, solid, municipal references beyond the references provided in the Reference Section, if desired. All references listed in the Reference Section are for current clients and reflect on -going work which shows SFA's experience with other cities for the same plan check services offered to the City of Santa Clarita. SFA does not perform any work for the private sector so no conflict of interest can result, allowing SFA staff to be objective in the enforcement of regulations. The owner, Scott Fazekas, will be actively involved with ensuring that quality services are delivered to the City of Santa Clarita, and will be the primary contact for all communication with the City. SFA's Quality Features • Objectivity - Exclusively serving municipalities for zero conflict of interest. • Fast turnaround times: First Reviews in 10 working days and rechecks in 5 working days. • Electronic plan submittal and review. • Experience of individual plan check staff in this field. • Excellent references by numerous municipalities. • Quality Control measures practiced to ensure a quality work product. • Municipal experience in building safety and familiarity with all internal and external agency and division needs. • Excellent Customer Service as ambassadors of the City. • SFA's team downloads/uploads all plans and Correction Lists in Accela acting as an extension of City staff. SFA incorporates several internal procedures which will: 1) ensure better communication with the client agencies and the applicants; 2) achieve plan reviews which are more consistent with the specific policies and needs of the individual municipal client; and 3) enhance internal organization and processing. 2 Analysis (Section 2) Problem solving for projects with unique issues requires a combination of code knowledge and an attitude of wanting to find solutions for barriers to a proposed project. Scott Fazekas has over 50 years in building safety, has served as Building Official in over 20 jurisdictions and has been Scott 17azekas & Asmociates, Im. 4 instrumental in solving unique obstacles to a wide range of projects. He has taught numerous code classes, served on many committees and participated in finding solutions for a wide range of unique projects. He often consults on code and administrative issues for Cities even on projects that are not SFA reviews. He has processed numerous Alternate Methods and Materials Requests (AM&MRs) over the years for both simple and complex projects. Code interpretations and thorough code history and understanding of the code intent are the route to finding solutions. SFA has decades of experience interfacing with all the agencies that a Building Division will encounter. These range from other reviewing agencies such as Health, Fire, Planning and Engineering Departments to interfacing with other entities that affect how Building Divisions interpret and process projects such as CalOSHA, Public Utilities, School Districts, Sanitation Districts, California Mines & Geology, Division of the State Architect, Housing & Community Development, Office of Statewide Health, Planning & Development, State Water Quality Control Board, Building Standards Commission (BSC), County Assessor, County Recorders and the Architect's, Engineer's and Contractor's Licensing Boards. Part of the plan review process is to ensure that applications and plans match and contain the necessary documentation of scope of work, occupancy group, use, heights and areas, number of stories, construction types and if sprinklered. This information is not only used in the plan review process but is important to have in the City archives and for producing the Certificates of Occupancy. 3 Objective, Scope, Nature of Proposed Program (Section 3) The Scope of Work proposed by SFA covers all the codes mandated for enforcement by the Building Department. SFA will perform building, accessibility, structural, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, use and occupancy classification, general building heights and area, construction type, foundation and other relevant plan review for buildings and structures for compliance with applicable Federal and State laws, building and safety codes and City ordinances. SFA will also review and approve building revisions to plans required during construction. The scope and areas of these codes are as follows: California Building Code, 2022 Edition (and whatever Edition goes into effect as mandated by State Law) California Mechanical Code, 2022 Edition California Plumbing Code, 2022 Edition California Electrical Code, 2022 Edition California Energy Code, 2022 Edition California Residential Code, 2022 All California Adopted Codes All California Statutes which mandate local enforcement Scott 17:azeli:as #& 1w. All related State and Local Codes adopted by the City of Santa Clarita, as well as future adopted codes and ordinances during the term of the contract City Policies City Interpretations 4 Work Program (Section 4) SFA proposes to provide Building Plan Check Services with ICC Certified Plans Examiners and licensed professionals from SFA's office. All of SFA plan check engineers are licensed Professional Civil or Structural Engineers or Architects. All projects produce typed plan check correction lists with each submittal and resubmittal until final approval and transmittal to the City of Santa Clarita via the City's Accela program. The plan review staff are always available to answer any technical questions of the City and applicant/design team regarding corrections, codes and regulations to encourage complete resubmittals. 4.1 Turnaround Time Small to Large Multi -family residential and commercial, TI's and other non-residential projects: 10 Business Days first review, 5 days recheck. Extra Large Multi -family residential and commercial projects will be done in 15 working days or as agreed upon with the Building Official. Phone Calls will be returned in 2-4 hours. SFA has worked with our client cities on numerous projects which have required preliminary meetings, condensed schedules, phased reviews and tight goals on permit issuance deadlines and would continue to do that with the City of Santa Clarita. SFA's process ensures due dates are always honored by assigning work to the engineers quickly upon receipt from the City and closely tracking the plan review process as defined in this Section. 4.2 Tailored Plan Check Services Approach SFA provides a plan review service which is tailored to the specific needs of Santa Clarita. This is accomplished by following the Agency Information List. 4.3 Agency Information List SFA provides a plan review service which is tailored to the specific needs of each client by using a customized Agency Information List which documents policies, interpretations, ordinances, routing, and communication rules, etc. Whenever the City wishes to implement a change or addition to the list, SFA will update the list and distribute it to all plan check staff on their computer to notify them of the change and it is also updated on a paper copy of the Agency Information List for initial read. When technical directives are added to the Agency Information List, these items are often incorporated into the Santa Clarita Correction List Template, insuring that specific critical items are incorporated in each review when applicable. Scott F azeka-as & 1w. 4.4 Transmittal Form SFA's Transmittal Form is tailored for use specifically with building plan checks. Serving to document enclosures, it also serves as a good communication tool to alert the permit technician of items which are critical at the permit issuance stage. Some examples are 1) when special inspection is required, 2) when another agency approval is necessary, 3) if the building official was involved in an interpretation and should be given a chance to review the project, and 4) if additional review fees are due as well as other topics. This form works in conjunction with the Agency Information List and establishes a clear working relationship between SFA and the City of Santa Clarita. 4.5 Correction List In order for the plan checks to reflect the City's specific administrative preferences, policies, interpretations and routing protocols, SFA uses a customized, City of Santa Clarita Correction List Template which ensures that specific requirements requested by the City are always flagged. Separate from the City's specific template, SFA has both Residential and Commercial standard correction lists which are continually being updated. They provide good review guidelines with referenced code sections that aid in compiling the final Correction List. SFA shares our Correction Lists with City staff. 4.6 SFA Plan Log System The SFA Plan Log System is a software designed specifically for SFA that provides centralized data management for the plan review process. This allows SFA to: A. Login — Record all information associated with each project B. Generate Reports 1. Scheduling — Efficiently assign plans based on plan checker workloads 2. Productivity — Measure and monitor plan review efficiency 3. Capacity — Monitor the workload capacity of each plan reviewer C. Status to City D. Track — Plan review progress throughout the plan review process E. Logout — Route completed plans back to the City Some additional features of the SFA Plan Log System are: • Fee calculation and tracking for all hourly projects such as revisions or deferred submittals. Automated invoice generation to help prevent clerical and mathematical errors. A Scheduling Report is generated daily which displays the currently assigned workload for each plan checker and all projects received that day. This report is used to ensure each project has the proper time available to complete a proper review. This process also serves to identify projects experiencing delays with numerous re -checks so they can be addressed. Maintains all SFA holiday and vacation calendars to ensure assigned workloads are accurate and achievable. Scott 17azelias & Associates, Im. • A Due Report is generated nightly and delivered as a reminder, to each plan checker containing all the projects due the next day to ensure deadlines are achieved. • A Status Report is generated which includes the turnaround time for all projects. This serves as a double check that projects do not go out late. • Advanced search features which help streamline projects by assigning projects at the same address to the same plan checker who performed previous reviews. • Customizable fee structure and review schedules for each client with automated generation of fees and due dates to prevent clerical and mathematical errors. 4.7 Customer Service SFA prides itself on providing top notch "the applicant always comes first" service. SFA's Customer Service starts with providing plan reviews that are consistent, technically thorough, competent, clearly written, constructive and timely. From start to finish, due dates are transparent and the plan check engineers are available to discuss and clarify any questions in a professional and courteous manner once the Corrections are received by the Applicant through the City. When the plan check engineers see solutions, they will articulate suggestions. Plan Check Engineers at SFA have the goal of moving each project as quickly as possible through to approval while achieving code compliance. SFA delivered 38% of plan reviews early based on data collected over the past four years. Plan review correction lists are a critical communication tool with the applicants and ensures corrections are clearly defined to the applicant to minimize rechecks and maximize applicant satisfaction. The SFA Office Administrators are dedicated to providing customer service to the City. During normal business hours, in addition to logging and routing all incoming and outgoing plan reviews, the Administrative staff provide phone coverage, meeting coordination and routing calls to plan review engineers. 5 Methodology (Section 5) 5.1 Plan Assignment/Routing After plans have been logged in, the SFA Plan Log will recommend plan reviewer assignments based on previous reviewer history for rechecks and plan checker capacity for initial reviews. Plans are promptly routed to the plan check engineer with an assignment tag and the due date, so the engineer can schedule their time accordingly. 5.2 Status, Tracking and Reports The details, status and progress of each plan review is tracked in the SFA Plan Log and can be provided to the City when needed. Upon City request SFA can generate specific reports from the SFA Plan Log System. This allows for full transparency of the plan review process. The reports include information such as: • Plans uploaded/downloaded from Accela as the date received, reviewed, checked, notified and also how shipped if paper • Tracking status Scott 17azelias & Associates, Im. Plan Check Engineer's name, contact information, where and how to respond and resubmit for recheck • Correction Lists uploaded/downloaded from Accela • Special Notes to flag unique project -specific items. Using the City's Accela program, SFA is able to allow for a smooth now of the plan review process, becoming part of the City team. 5.3 Plan Review The paper plans as well as the Accela received plans are distributed by the administrative staff to the assigned plan check engineer's office and tagged with a due date and any unique notations specific to each project. This is done within 24 hours of intake. The plan check engineer reviews the City Application paperwork and compares the scope of the application with the plans. The review will incorporate any items from the Santa Clarita Correction List Template that apply, as well as applicable policies from the Santa Clarita Agency Information List. Once the direction and scope are clear and any City -specific issues that apply are understood, the comprehensive review of the plan is done. The plan check engineer will use the appropriate SFA Standard Correction List as a guide to ensure that a quality review results. The SFA Standard Correction List is extensive and updated every three years and at mid -cycle (18 months) in accordance with the California Code update cycle. The end product will result in a Correction List that clearly states what areas need to be addressed including references to code sections, ordinances and/or city policies. In the case of rechecks, all resolved issues are deleted from the corrections and unresolved issues retain the initial correction(s) that are not yet resolved with a follow-up correction in bold as to why specifically it remains unresolved. 5.4 Electronic Plan Check SFA has significant experience providing electronic plan check services with multiple different municipality software, Accela, Bluebeam, web -based options, VPNs and other processes. Each Plan Check Engineer has a dedicated electronic plan review station equipped with dual 43" 4K monitors. Bluebeam Revu is our primary software but also use City web - based options as needed. SFA uses Digital Signatures for plan reviews performed electronically. The digital signature provides authenticity and trusted 3rd party verification that the signature was issued by SFA. The digital signature provides integrity protection; ensuring that no modifications were made to the plan after the signature was applied. The digital signature also provides non - repudiation; proving that SFA is the only entity that could have generated the signature. 5.5 Correction List Format During the plan review process corrections are written to cite specific issues and where appropriate, identify the location on the plans where the conditions apply as well as the code section. To enhance fairness to the designer with the Correction List, the format is such that upon recheck, all the corrections which are resolved by the designer's response are deleted/dropped from the list; only the unresolved items remain. The initial corrections that are unresolved remain in light font for reference with the follow-up correction clarification as to what remains outstanding and why, typed in bold font. This lets the designer (and owner) see that it is not a new correction that was added but was simply not resolved by the designer, and why. Scott 17azeli:as & Asmociates, Im. 5.6 Communication with City During the plan review process SFA has multiple mediums with which to communicate with the City. The method selected is intended to be the most convenient, timely, efficient and inclusive to all relevant parties. SFA lists the communication tools currently being utilized in daily operations: • In person meeting with City at City Hall or SFA offices • Zoom or Teams meetings • Conference call dial -ins • Combination of Bluebeam shared on-line viewing with conference call to discuss plans. • Phone • Fax • Email and pdf Considerations such as the location(s), number of participants and complexity of the subject matter play a role in how the method of interaction is selected. Preliminary meetings may be virtual or in person. SFA attends meetings in City Hall when requested by City Staff. Phone consultations are available to the City on any topic, regardless of whether or not it's for a project worked on by SFA. Code issues are addressed as a courtesy with no charge. SFA is always available to answer technical questions to the public, including inquiries regarding building and safety codes and regulations. SFA's plan check staff work in SFA's Irvine office, not remotely. Staff regularly take phone calls throughout the day in real time. 5.7 Plan Review Logout and Delivery During the plan review process the applicant and/or design team will resolve corrections through the resubmittal and recheck process and will continue this process until applicant has shown compliance with all applicable codes, ordinances, state and federal laws as well as City Policies and Interpretations. SFA will return the plans via UPS if paper and through Accela if electronic. When plans are final Digital plans will be stamped and locked or unlocked as requested by the City depending on internal administrative processing preference. The stamp indicates the plans have been "reviewed for code compliance". Digital final plans will be downloaded to Accela and the City notified. If paper plans, the plan will then be logged out/approved and couriered back to the City. 5.8 Staff Training SFA has multiple ways to maintain ongoing training to stay updated on continuously changing codes and statutes that affect the building industry. All staff attend code update classes at every three-year code update cycle as well as annual Calbo Ed Week classes. We participate in monthly ICC Chapter Meetings in more than one region and regularly participate in the Orange Empire Chapter's Code Committee which addresses new and critical code interpretation issues. SFA also has regular in-house staff meetings to summarize industry trends and promote uniformity of plan review practices. Having all plan check staff working in one office location also promotes ongoing dialogue and information sharing on a daily basis. Scott 17azcluts & Associates, Im. 10 5.9 Applicant Questionnaire SFA provides Applicant Questionnaires on our website at scottfazekasandassociates.com for the design/developer team to complete after the review process is complete. This allows follow-up of any potential process issues but also lets the plan check team know they're open to receiving comments. This is available, if requested by the City. 6 Project Management (Section 6) Scott Fazekas is a hands-on manager with many years experience in the building consulting field. His model for a successful relationship with our clients is to be personally involved in the daily plan check operations. He is in the office 5 days a week and readily available to plan check staff to answer any questions that arise during the work day. His personal devotion to the daily schedules contributes to the overall quality of the plan check done by the company. He is available to the City every day should they wish to contact him regarding any project that SFA is reviewing. This has been a successful model for the company for 29 years. 7 Assigned Personnel & Qualifications (Section 7) 7.1 SFA Proposed Staffing & Project Organization The plan check engineers available to the City of Santa Clarita are all licensed professional architects or engineers, each of which performs comprehensive building, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, energy, disabled access, green building and City ordinance and policy reviews consistent with the administrative protocols as directed by the City's Building Official. Our newest Plan Check Engineer is an E.I.T. and is training under the supervision of senior staff. The SFA plan review team are trained in the format required by the City for plan review and are available on an as -needed basis to receive, schedule and deliver on -schedule plan reviews. SFA's activities in professional organizations are represented in the resumes of Scott Fazekas and the team of plan check engineers. Mr. Fazekas has served on committees, and lectured at seminars, for the two primary organizations which represent building safety professionals: I.C.C. and Calbo. He served four years on I.C.B.O.'s General Design Code Development Committee which then became the Structural Code Review Committee in 1999. He also served six years on the ANSI Al 17 Committee which develops the accessibility standards used in the federal and state access regulations. One of SFA's senior plan check engineers, Ganesh Rao, S.E., has developed and instructed the Calbo Structural Code Update Seminar for the C.B.C. Additionally, Vic Penera, S.E., served as Chairman of the I.B.C. Structural Code Development Committee and was involved in the drafting of the 2000 I.B.C. structural provisions. Brett Archibald, one of SFA's plan check engineers, took the initiative in developing both a commercial and a residential checklist for the 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019, and 2022 California Codes. This has been shared with local I.C.C. Chapters and client agencies.

Internally we shorten the turn around time to 8 workings days maximum instead of 10 working days. Reports are provided each month in order to prepare the invoices, showing which projects were completed during the previous month. Additional reports are available as requested by the City. Any additional duties requested by the City would meet the agreed upon time frame expectations of the City. SFA has worked with our clients on numerous projects which have required preliminary meetings, condensed schedules, phased reviews, and tight goals on permit issuance deadlines. A Daily Turnaround Report is run and reviewed by management to verify that all deadlines are being met or exceeded. As shown in the following chart, SFA has performed over 33,000 reviews in the previous 4 years, during that time 38% of the reviews have been completed prior to the committed due date, 62% on the due date and 0% late.

This structure allows SFA the depth of resources when assignments are received to have any or all engineers do overtime in order to always meet the deadline. This equates to approximately two and a half Full Time Employee's always being available for increased demand. The SFA Capacity chart above accounts for the current work load; the excess capacity shown is capacity to perform plan check services above and beyond the current work load to provide additional plan review services to the City. 10 City Resources (Section 10) It is the ultimate goal of SFA to reduce or eliminate the effort by City staff needed in the plan review process. Since SFA works at the pleasure and direction of the City, the City has the right to determine what, if any, involvement they have. SFA is simply an extension of the City staff as an as -needed resource. Some information and effort required of the City to perform services that would help SFA perform plan review services more efficiently would be as follows: • Copies of Code Adoption Ordinance. • Copies of, or verbal explanation of, any written Policies on Code Interpretations. • Copies of any administrative policies on plan routing with applicants. • List of City contacts, roles, phone numbers, etc. to allow efficient interfacing for communication and coordination between SFA and City staff when necessary. • Copies of Application Forms with each plan review assigned to SFA by the City. • Respond to occasional phone calls by Plan Check Engineers on project -specific questions. 11 Subcontractors (Section 11) SFA does not use subcontractors.

The City contacted SFA prior to the plan submittal to do a site visit, expslain the parameters and schedule and to work out a strategy for the plans to be in three phases to get construction started as soon as possible. Scheduling and access regulations were key issues. The project was initially built as a split-level Motel 6 with a pool deck, front offices, dining room and both open and underground parking. The 3 phases achieved approval through timely reviews and resubmittals with communication between all parties. This project involved public funds so despite having been built initially pre-1991, access compliance had to be addressed.

It is the first facility in California by WEP. There are two large structural engineering firms providing designs and they are coordinated through WEP's engineer who is the City's contact for all interfacing needs. Flour Corporation and Air Products, Inc. are the two firms. Scott 17azeli:as & Associates, Im. 28 The project scope is 1) remediation of contaminated soil and grading; 2) developing staging structures for an anticipated 3-year development phase; 3) developing 1- to 4 story factory structures including vessels up to 75 ft. high; and 4) developing a site -wide network of structures, towers and poles approximately 70 ft. high supporting bio-fuel piping with a total weight of approximately 600,000 tons. Due to soils conditions and ground water table at approximately 40 ft deep, 70 ft deep caissons have created challenges. Also, challenges to work through involved multiple easement abandonments and having agreements recorded for several separate parcels that make up the 62 acres. To accommodate WEP's unique scheduling preferences, most structures are phased with foundation only and superstructures done separately. To date, SFA has received 232 plan check applications for this site. Many phases are approved but this is an on -going phased project. Alexan Apartments and Parking Garage 34 E. Santa Clara Street, Arcadia, CA Plan Check Engineer, Ganesh Rao, S.E. Start Date: 5/l/23 Final Date: In Process/Not Approved Yet City Contact: Ken Fields, Building Official (626) 574-5420 email address: kfields(a�arcadiaca.gov Alexan Apartments is a new 319-unit apartment building with underground parking consisting of 330,113 sq. ft. building area. It had a valuation of $74 million. It included a pool, spa and restaurant. The parking garage and podium were Type 1-A construction and the apartments on the podium were Type III -A construction. Some of the key issues on this project due to height and scale/area were 1) Fire Walls for separating areas to comply with allowable area; 2) the 3- hour garage separation by using 510 CBC exceptions; and 3) building height to grade since apartments are on top of the raised podium. Also, the "occupied roof deck" provisions apply to this project on the 5th level which is a relatively new code provision/exception. For disabled access in an elevator apartment Chapter 11-A had many adaptable feature requirements and the project also has some live -work units which also trigger Chapter 11-B access regulations for the public accommodation portions of the units. At this point after only the initial review has been performed. It is possible this project may be publicly funded and accessibility scope is yet to be resolved regarding accessibility issues. On the structural side, the Type III -A residential is wood framed with Fire Retardant Treated wood (FRT) which decreases structural wood values due to Type A construction as well as FRT. The settlement/dimensional change with 4 stories of wood presented the need for the engineer to address dimensional change issues as well. Scott 17azeli:as & Associates, Im. 29 Cinema West 12-Plex Theater 1490 E. 2nd Street, Beaumont, CA Plan Check Engineer, Ganesh Rao, S.E. Start Date: 6/28/2019 Final Date: 10/11/2019 City Contact: Sara Retmier, Building Official (951) 769-8517 email address: sretmiergbeaumontca.com Cinema West was Type III-B Sprinklered, 12-plex, A-1 occupancy of 39,866 sq. ft. It had a valuation of $8.9 million. This project was part of a larger development which included about 6 other big box retail, fitness center and restaurants which were at different stages of construction. The developer had not contacted Southern California Gas regarding a known easement and had found a high-pressure gas line with grading equipment. They were shut down temporarily and during that time accurate location of the line being determined also put a hold on their Theater project until resolved. This was worked through between the City, the architect and SFA. The project went through two corrections and was approved on the third. Some of the key points unique to this project were high 40 ft. ceilings and high storefront glazing. There were some partitions designed as hanging partitions. The view angles for accessible Chapter 11-B viewing needed to be demonstrated. Also, the layout involved seismic isolation between some areas so seismic joints were necessary. Also, handrails and stepped aisles per 1029 CBC were addressed. The building was built as a concrete tilt -up with stepped roof diaphragms. A number of corrections occurred on the diaphragm design, concrete out -of -plane wall anchorage at the roof as well as the wall foundation connections. There were also some fire protection details for the Type I Hood in the kitchen that were addressed in the corrections. 4-Level Parking Structure 15336 Newport Avenue, Tustin, CA Plan Check Engineer, Kyle Tonokawa, P.E. Start Date: 6/24/2019 Final Date: 9/13/2019 City Contact: Mariam Madjlessi, Building Official (714) 573-3109 email address: mmadjlessi(cr,,tustinca.org Schools First Federal Credit Union is the owner who was building this to go with their adjacent 3 story office building which SFA had also previously reviewed. It was built as Type 1-B construction, S-2 occupancy and 291,089 sq. ft. providing 921 parking stalls. It had a valuation Scott 17azeli:as & Associates, Im. 30 of $13.5 million. While it was titled 4-story, it was 4 levels of parking but qualified as a 3-story structure from a code perspective with an occupied parking deck roof. Some of the key issues that were addressed in the reviews were 1) it was in a liquefaction zone and required 50 ft. deep borings by the soils engineer; 2) the foundation design for moment frame; 3) one of the grade beam designs; and 4) rooftop solar array configurations not meeting 503 C.B.0 and some exit travel distance questions. There were also some issues with undersized electrical conductors and equipment. The project required 2 reviews with corrections and was approved on the 3rd submittal. Mixed Use 5-Story 10201 Garden Grove Boulevard, Garden Grove, CA Plan Check Engineer, Ganesh Rao, S.E. Start Date: 1/5/2023 Final Date: In Process/Not Final Yet City Contact: David Dent, Deputy Director of Community DevelopmentBuilding Official (714) 741-5343 email address: davidd@ggcity.org This 5-story included a Type 1-A, S-2 occupancy parking garage with podium construction, floors 1-3 above as commercial occupancies of A-3, B, M and U occupancies and floors 4 and 5 as residential R-2 occupancies. It also included an occupied roof as well. Floors 1-5 above the podium were Type III -A construction. The project was 207,349 sq. ft. in area with a valuation of $25 million. This project had its complete initial review and has not yet been resubmitted. This project had issues with 1) mis-labeled sprinkler design type; 2) roof top occupancy egress; 3) possible access parking requirement count due to the commercial physical therapy tenants; 4) access compliance for both residential and commercial occupancies (Chapters 11-A and 11-B, C.B.C.); 5) conflicts in the soils report with the design for the intended loads from construction type and number of proposed stories; and 6) collector design for concrete shear walls. The following Reference Projects will highlight 3 projects that are "essential services" facilities and therefor subject to statutory requirements for the design team, who can plan check them, and that they meet the more restrictive occupancy category code for structural design. The third project is a parking garage. Orange County Sheriffs Department — Tustin 1382 Bell Ave., Tustin Plan Check Engineer: Ganesh Rao, SE City Contact: Mariam Madjlessi, Building Official (714) 573-3109 mmadjlessigtustinca.org This project was in an existing Tilt -up Type III-B, sprinklered building of 119,382 sf. It was developed to have 2 stories and 1 mezzanine for a Sheriff's Station. Scope included parking Scott 17azeli:as & Associates, Im. 31 upgrades, fencing, exterior patio, new generators, mezzanine, and a tenant improvement from warehouse to an essential services facility. The occupancy changed from S-1 to AB/F-1/S-2. There were preliminary meetings to address phased construction as well as the structural viability since the building required a seismic upgrade to meet an Occupancy Category Code IV instead of II which represents a 50% seismic design increase. This is unique to essential services facilities. This project went through a total of five reviews over a period of four months. The design method required bracing and stabilizing some of the existing structure to gain compliance with the structural requirements. It involved a combination of: 1) tall sheet steel shear walls with AISI interpretations on S400-15 standards; 2) concrete precast shear walls which needed addressed since "ordinary" precast shear walls were not allowed in Seismic Design Category C per ASCE Table 12.2-1; and 3) roof diaphragm attachments to walls for out - of -plane anchorage. This plan review progressed well. The initial preliminary meeting contributed to the design and review team being on the same page about the structural challenges which needed resolved. Fire Station & Storage Building — Costa Mesa 2803 Royal Palm Dr., Costa Mesa Plan Check Engineer: Ganesh Rao, SE City Contact: Ziad Doudar, Building Official (714) 754-5604 ziad.doudarkcostamesaca. og_v This project was a new building on a site of a previous fire station. It was a 1-story, type VB, sprinklered construction fire station. As with the OCSD project, it also required complying with Occupancy Category Code IV requirements. The structural materials consisted of concrete piers, concrete and masonry shear walls, and plywood shear walls, some of which were designed to resist masonry loads. It also used steel girders supported on the masonry walls. This project had a generator, fuel tank and transformer which required structural calculations and anchorage since these equipment components also required Category IV anchorage design. Occupancy separation between the engine bay and sleeping quarters was required since the International Codes no longer group the entire fire station into a B-occupancy. The accessible route from the parking lot to the public entrance was allowed via the public sidewalk. While technically not allowed by Ch. 11-B access regulations, Public Works clarified that the City could commit to the sidewalk not being removed due to street widening or other reasons, making the alternative design an option. This Fire Station is in operation now. Scott 17azcluts & Associates, Im. 32 Parking Structure — Irvine Irvine Center Drive & Antivo, Irvine Plan Check Engineer: Kyle Tonokawa, PE City Contact: Jesse Cardoza, Building Official, Community Development Director (714) 724-6377 j cardoza( ,cityofirvine. org This project was a 4-story, Type II-B sprinklered parking garage of an S-2 occupancy group. It was 164,490 sf with a valuation of $8,832,976. The parking structure was wrapped by an apartment complex which was reviewed as a separate phase; however, the apartment and garage egress plans were reviewed together. There were issues with separating the concrete parking structure from the wood framed apartments. Seismic drift separation and fire wall construction were addressed and some additional concrete fire walls were required to complete the fire separation. There were also trash chutes in the garage that served the apartments, requiring fire rated opening protections. The structural system consisted of both moment frames and shear walls which warranted a rigidity analysis. The different lateral systems presented the need for detailing to transfer lateral loads. Also, distribution of some of the shear wall loads transferred into some of the ramp diaphragms which created connections at varying elevations. Sloped footings for shear walls also needed addressed so as not to exceed 1 in 10 slope. Vehicle barriers at exterior walls consisted of both masonry and steel cables which initially lacked design. Also, there were sump pumps required for drainage discharge at the lowest level. This proj ect went through three reviews and was approved on the third. 12.2 Other Types of Projects Reviewed by SFA Some projects worth noting to illustrate abroad range of experience are as follows: • New undergraduate dormitory 96,200k SF housing facility • New mixed use 10 story residential and indoor water park with retail • New Assisted living Facilities • New Ambulatory Surgery Centers and Multiple OSHPD 3's • Multiple residential buildings (apartments and condos) 3 to 5 stories with podium construction and parking below • Mixed use office, retail and housing facilities • Multiple Cannabis Buildings including agriculture, packaging, retail and extraction • Multi -story parking structures • OCSD Sheriff s facility remodel upgrading to Occupancy Category Code IV • Multiple large warehouses • Multiple multi -story office buildings Scott 17azeli:as & Associates, Im. 33 • Fire Stations • Municipal Event Centers • Private School Buildings • Large 5 story Distribution Hub Buildings 4 and 5 Story with multi -million sq. ft. areas • Three- and Four -Story mini -storage facilities • Multifamily and Multistory residential projects • Storage racks and large-scale conveyor structures • Elderly Care and Child Care Facilities • Blimp Hangars at MCAS Tustin - Evaluation and Re -Use 12.3 Client References Listed below are References for SFA.

With over three decades of experience in verifying plans for code compliance, your desire for timely reviews, direct customer service, and a long-term cost-effective partnership aligns seamlessly with our approach to delivering coordinated and collaborative services. At JAS Pacific, we specialize in collaborating with our client jurisdictions to develop a plan check process that mirrors the organization, quality, and coordination with your existing reviewers and will be understandable and familiar to your customers. Our approach has three key phases: Discovery, Information Gathering, and Implementation. This phased methodology ensures a seamless integration of services, clear communication, and a purposeful partnership. APPROACH PHASE ONE: DISCOVER`r We begin by clearly defining the scope of building reviews required, identifying key players and roles on both the City and JAS Pacific teams, verify permitting and plan review software, and establish robust communication protocols. Additionally, we confirm service delivery timelines and determine any necessity for on -site staffing. PHASE TWO: INFORMATION GATHERING This phase focuses on understanding the City's unique requirements. We identify municipal code amendments, gather documentation such as correction lists and handouts, and determine information required on plans. Our effort includes collaboration with the other City permitting agencies so that plan reviews are accurate and consistent with Planning Conditions of Approval, Public Works Engineering requirements, and Fire regulations. In the final phase, we establish workflows and documentation for both paper and digital plan reviews, ensuring efficiency and clarity. A workflow for electronic plans and documents, format and return of correction lists, and stamping of plan approvals will be documented. The city will have access to JAS Pacific's workflow system to allow tracking project status in real-time.

JAS Pacific staff who have implemented and conducted seismic retrofit programs for jurisdictions in California. JAS Pacific President Mr. Raj Patel, during this tenure as Building Official for the City of Beverly Hills, initiated a Soft -Story Seismic Retrofit Program for the city's vulnerable soft -story apartment buildings. His development of the program included technical research, initiation of several community meetings, and close correspondence with the City Manager and City Council before success passage of the ordinance, and a high completion rate of Soft -Story buildings in Beverly Hills. JAS Pacific Senior Vice -President Mr. Ron Takiguchi initiated and implemented a comprehensive seismic retrofit program while he was Building Official for the City of Santa Monica. This included a mandatory seismic retrofit for all vulnerable building types including Soft -Story Buildings, Non -Ductile Concrete Buildings, and the Nation's First Mandatory Seismic Retrofit of Steel -Moment Frame Buildings. Related to this experience, Mr. Takiguchi authored a paper entitled "City of Santa Monica: Successful Implementation of Smaller Community Resilience" that was published and presented at the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute's 2018 - 11th U.S. National Conference on Earthquake Engineering Conference. JAS Pacific can work with staff at Santa Clarita to advise, develop and initiate such programs During his tenure as Building Official for the City of Santa Monica, Mr. Ron Takiguchi — while working with the Planning Department and Office of Sustainability and the Environment of Santa Monica developed a mandatory Zero Net Energy (ZNE) Code for new single-family dwellings — the third such ordinance to be implemented in the State of California. The basis for ZNE achievement was mandatory installation of a solar photovoltaic system and other measures — years prior to the California Energy Commission's requirement of solar augmentation. JAS Pacific can work with Building & Safety for similarly related programs Prior to the ruling of the United States Supreme Court to restrict banning of natural gas in buildings, Ron Takiguchi, during his tenure as Building Official for the City of Pasadena, and Bob Latz serving the City of Sacramento, developed mandatory Building Electrification Programs for new commercial and multi -family buildings. Pasadena's Building Electrification Program provided several exceptions to the mandate while seeking health and environmental benefits of reduced fossil fuels in buildings. Sacramento's Electrification Program was specialized for new commercial applications with exceptions for the restaurant community and existing businesses. The process of State Building Code adoption provides an advanced look at developing and proposing codes and standards. Included in this process are the Workgroups of various State Agencies and the Code Advisory Committees of the California Building Standards Commission. Ron Takiguchi, member of the Green Building Code Advisory Committee — since the inception of the CALGreen Code — has an advanced look of proposed standards that are publicly discussed and approved for the next building code cycle.

Professional liability coverage will be on an "occurrence basis" if such coverage is available, or on a "claims made" basis if not available. When coverage is provided on a "claims made basis," CONSULTANT will continue to renew the insurance for a period of at least three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect. d.

Should CONSULTANT'S insurance required by this Agreement be cancelled at any point prior to expiration of the policy, CONSULTANT must notify City within 24 hours of receipt of notice of cancellation. Furthermore, CONSULTANT must obtain replacement coverage that meets all contractual requirements within 10 days of the prior insurer's issuance of notice of cancellation.

TnBt Assmaks CITY OF SANTA CLARITA I CONTRACTUAL SERVICES FOR THE CITY OF SANTA CLARITA'S BUILDING & SAFETY DIVISION 2-1 PROJECT ANALYSIS Preliminary Meetings and Project Administration Shortly after the project award, we propose to hold a meeting to verify project expectations, deliverables, scheduling, and logistical considerations.

TnB+AssmaNs CITY OF SANTA CLARITA I CONTRACTUAL SERVICES FOR THE CITY OF SANTA CLARITA'S BUILDING & SAFETY DIVISION 4-1 WORK PROGRAM Plan Review Process Please note that our plan review process will be tailored to meet the City's specific needs. The following process represents an example plan review workflow which may be applied if desired by the City. Step 1 - Preliminary Discussions: Prior to beginning our initial plan review project, our Project Manager proposes to conduct a meeting or conference call with the City to discuss local code policies, documentation procedures, plan processing protocols, plan review checklist items, and scheduling. Step 2 — Initial Review: Once we receive a complete set of plan documents, we will perform our plan review in the agreed -upon timeframe, checking for compliance to all applicable code standards. To confirm, plan review turnaround timeframes will align with standard City -established timeframes. In general, project reviews are completed in 5 to 10 working days or less for initial reviews, and 5 working days or less for subsequent review cycles. Specific turnaround times are provided in the "Turnaround Timetable" included in Section 8 of this proposal. All corrections are identified based on compliance with specified codes and regulations and worded so the designer will know what needs attention and how to respond to the issue stated. Generally, corrections are identified in two ways: • Notes can be made on plans as appropriate and authorized to assist in locating the issue on the plans. • A correction sheet is generated detailing what items need to be addressed before plans can be approved. Step 3 — Transmittal of Plans and Comment Lists for Plan Review. At the heart of our approach in delivering our services to you, is the recognition that there must be a coordinated effort to track and coordinate all submittals and requests received. To help assure that submittals are properly coordinated and tracked, TRB has established an internal plan review coordination process to ensure that each plan received for review is properly handled, processed, and returned on time. Our plan tracking procedures are computerized to track each submittal through the review process and maintain accurate and comprehensive records for each submittal. Upon completion of our review, any comments generated are consolidated into a correction letter in the City's preferred format (e.g. Bluebeam, punch list, or other format) which is remitted to the City for its reference. Step 4 — Rechecks: Upon receipt of the resubmittal package from the applicant, once we have verified that the resubmittal package is complete, we perform a recheck in the agreed -upon timeframe. This process is repeated until the project plan documents are ready to be recommended for approval. Step 5 — Plan Approval: When all review comments are satisfied, we will forward two sets of all relevant correspondence bearing our company's "Reviewed for Code Compliance" stamp (including plans, calculations, and specifications), along with a transmittal letter indicating our recommendation for project approval, and the project file to the City for processing.

Commercial general liability insurance will meet or exceed the requirements of ISO-CGL Form No. CG 00 011185 or 88. The amount of insurance set forth above will be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. Automobile coverage will be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 0106 92, including symbol 1(Any Auto). Liability policies will be endorsed to name CITY, its officials, and employees as "additional insureds" under said insurance coverage and to state that such insurance will be deemed "primary" such that any other insurance that may be carried by CITY will be excess thereto. Such endorsement must be reflected on ISO Form No. CG 20 10 1185 or 88, or equivalent. Such insurance will be on an "occurrence," not a "claims made," basis and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to CITY. c. Professional liability coverage will be on an "occurrence basis" if such coverage is available, or on a "claims made" basis if not available. When coverage is provided on a "claims made basis," CONSULTANT will continue to renew the insurance for a period of at least three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect. d.

Insurance must be placed with California -admitted insurers with (other than workers compensation) a current A.M. Best Company Rating of at least "A:Vll." e. Waiver of Subrogation: The insurer(s) agree to waive all rights of subrogation against CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, agents, volunteers and employees for losses paid under the terms of the workers compensation policy which arise from work performed by CONSULTANT for CITY. f. Should CONSULTANT, for any reason, fail to obtain and maintain the insurance required by this Agreement, CITY may obtain such coverage at CONSULTANT's expense and deduct the cost of such insurance from payments due to CONSULTANT under this Agreement or terminate pursuant to TERMINATION section. In the alternative, should CONSULTANT fail to meet any of the insurance requirements under this Agreement, City may terminate this Agreement immediately with no penalty. g. Should CONSULTANT'S insurance required by this Agreement be cancelled at any point prior to expiration of the policy, CONSULTANT must notify City within 24 hours of receipt of notice of cancellation. Furthermore, CONSULTANT must obtain replacement coverage that meets all contractual requirements within 10 days of the prior insurer's issuance of notice of cancellation. CONSULTANT must ensure that there is no lapse in coverage. h. The CITY shall be entitled to any coverage in excess of the minimums required herein. I have read and understand the above requirements and agree to be bound by them for any work performed for the City.

We are confident that SCA is the firm with the personnel, experience, and approach that will be needed to successfully provide these services to the City. SCA is a building and life -safety consulting firm that was established in 2006 on the principle of assisting our municipal partners with staff augmentation and developmental services related to construction review, permitting, inspections and documentation procedures. Our firm continually receives exceptional reviews from our jurisdictional clients, as well as design professionals, developers, and contractors from all sizes of projects and varying complexities. Positive interactions related to our work product is centered in our desire to be more than a mere consultant firm but rather a contributing partner, functioning as an extension of the City's staff. We are committed to a vision of service excellence that we believe the City of Santa Clarita shares. We are constantly improving our staffing levels and efficiencies to match the complexity of each project's scope, and this response to the proposal presents a perfect opportunity to display these strengths in improvements. Our goal is to provide a positive outcome to the City of Santa Clarita's Building Department needs, and we believe that SCA is the firm that can continue to make development services in the City of Santa Clarita a source of community pride. The following proposal will highlight key features and distinguishing points of the SCA team that will assist in this undertaking. We intend to provide primary services out of our Southern Regional Office in Irvine, with additional support staff being provided from our corporate headquarters and regional offices (when needed).

PUS, AL V Shums Coda Associates (SCA) offers the following building life -safety services: J.'1` Plan Reviews & Inspections Conveyance Plan Review & Inspections Permit Technicians Building Department Staff Augmentation Civil Engineering Professional Education & Certification Fire Protection Engineering ni Energy/ Sustainability Introduction (Section 1) SCA was established with the philosophy of providing customizable building and life -safety services through highly qualified and experienced staff exclusively to jurisdictions. SCA reviews and inspects all facets of design construction related to code minimums and local amendments including architectural, structural, fire life -safety systems, accessibility/CASp, energy, green building, mechanical, electrical and plumbing, as well as all associated reporting for permitting, inspections and code enforcement. By selecting SCA, you will have access to our entire experienced and code knowledgeable team, with a proven track record of providing outstanding service to communities throughout California and the nation. We utilize our code expertise to work efficiently in achieving consistent on -time delivery of our services and providing cost- effectiveness through the utilization of focused staffing. SCA is committed and ready to provide you with the same care and standard of technical excellence that has been the hallmark of our work since our inception. SCA personnel have the experience to provide complete, accurate, and on -time plan review, inspection, and permit -related services that the City of Santa Clarita desires. We are comprised of licensed architects, civil and structural engineers, California Certified Access Specialists (CASp), and former general contractors that are now I.C.C. Certified personnel that have a wealth of practical application of code through experiences within design and/or construction -related fields. Additionally, SCA staff have well over a combined century of experience providing building and life -safety services to, and for, governmental agencies. While most of our staff started their careers with an extensive design or construction background, over the years each has shifted into municipal roles working directly for municipalities (as employees or consultants). From this expansive development knowledge base, SCA understands the importance of an experienced team of licensed professionals and certified employees that can translate life experiences into exceptional building/life- safety customer services that are practical for all our clients. SCA provides these services to communities throughout the nation (many similar to the City of Santa Clarita), from our eight offices located in five states. SCA's Corporate Headquarters are in Pleasanton, California, with Regional Offices in California (Irvine & Folsom), Arizona (Goodyear), Nevada (Las Vegas), Utah (St. George & Salt Lake City) and Colorado (Denver). Between all our locations, SCA employs approximately one hundred employees available to assist with plan review, inspection, and permit -related services (as needed). With such a large and experienced team, that is now in our nineteenth year of business in providing code services to our municipal partners, we continue to see the value in adapting our work product to be customized to the needs of each jurisdiction and would expect the same at Santa Clarita. For example, SCA expanded our staffing levels and code expertise with the acquisition of the former Colorado Code Consulting (CCC) in 2020. This improved our educational service lines to provide expanded technical code training throughout the United States, as well as a more defined involvement with national building code development. With the additional team members, it also increased our abilities to handle larger and more complex projects from a larger staff and greater code knowledge/resources. However, even as SCA has expanded our staff and services, we have consistently maintained a flat organizational structure in terms of SHUMS CODA Shums—(Noun): 1. Sun; 2. Light; 3. Brilliance; 4. Knowledge Coda — (Noun): 1. Final section of a musical piece — a final section that adds dramatic energy to the ASSOCIATES work as a whole, usually through intensified rhythmic activity; 2. Extra text — an additional section at the 3 end of a text, for example, a literary work or speech that gives additional information. management to foster a family -oriented business model. This intentional internal structure eliminates excess management layers in favor of direct coordination and communication with jurisdictional client staff or management. The end result allows our team's regional managers and project leads to independently work to their strengths and provide highly customized services from the entire SCA team, to best fit our individual clients or specific project needs. SCA is excited to demonstrate how these continued increases in our services capabilities and willingness to communicate directly will be a benefit to the City of Santa Clarita community needs. SCA's continued growth is attributed to our sound client relationships and demonstrated value in providing contract services to municipalities of all sizes. We have enjoyed successful partnerships with numerous jurisdictions not only throughout California, but Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Minnesota, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. We are proud of the superior level of assistance we provide to our clients, and we are confident in our overall company structure to commit to the services outlined in the RFP — responsiveness, on -time delivery, local staff members, and superior code knowledge. Project Analysis (Section 2) SCA has reviewed the entire request for proposal from the City of Santa Clarita and understands the project to be a request to assist with three overall critical parts of the development process that exists at the City. Clearly, the first need is to provide experienced, licensed and ICC certified staff to complete requested plan reviews, inspections or in-house staffing when needed during times of peak construction or lulls in available city staffing. The second desire is to provide on -time delivery of code services to the jurisdiction and the community of Santa Clarita, with professionalism and clarity in communications of technical information related to our reviews, inspections or any permit processing. With these minimums being provided by SCA, the goal for the third part of our services would be to listen to and adapt our services to rise to the daily current needs within the City of Santa Clarita to provide the highest level of customer service to the municipality. For example, our ability to provide expedited plans reviews, reviews of specialized systems or complex designs, and being able to utilize the City of Santa Clarita's permitting software to record results in a manner that is visible and assists the City's staff. All of these issues represent items we current assist well over two -hundred clients in resolving daily, and is the heart of our business model to be support to jurisdictions across the country. We are therefore excited to show how we can adapt and engage our highly qualified staff to fit the needs of Santa Clarita in these endeavors. Objective, Scope, Nature of Proposed Program (Section 3) SCA will provide plan review, inspection, and permit -related services in accordance with the Scope of Work identified in the City of Santa Clarita's Request for Proposal (RFP) document. SCA's goal is to provide the City of Santa Clarita with exceptional building and life -safety customer service by providing an experienced team and fostering open communication with the city and applicants to deliver complete, accurate, and on -time services. SCA will maintain regular communication with the City of Santa Clarita's staff to ensure that we meet the city's expectations. We therefore provide multiple ways for the city (or the applicants) to contact our managers or staff (office and cell phones, texts, emails, and video conferencing), as we prefer to provide as many opportunities as possible to communicate and resolve issues quickly. Likewise, we recognize that sometimes we will need to alert the city staff to issues we have discovered in our reviews or inspections, or to obtain direction on how to proceed with unusual code concerns — so only through communicating with the city, will a clear and consistent message be delivered in a timely manner. That communication begins with SCA reaching out to the City of Santa Clarita staff to have an onboarding meeting with our management team to understand all the facets of the City's current process and finding the most advantageous points for SCA's team to be involved with our services. Our team usually asks technical SHUMS CODA Shums—(Noun): 1. Sun; 2. Light; 3. Brilliance; 4. Knowledge Coda — (Noun): 1. Final section of a musical piece — a final section that adds dramatic energy to the ASSOCIATES work as a whole, usually through intensified rhythmic activity; 2. Extra text — an additional section at the 4 I end of a text, for example, a literary work or speech that gives additional information. questions related to permitting software, notification of assignments, how to input our completed contributions to the development process, as well as preferred methods of invoicing. These discussions often lead to preferences to redlining plans, how to communicate with applicants and when the city prefers to be contacted or informed of status of various work products. At the end of this initial discussion, we are able to find the methods within the contract to expedite and assist the applicants (as well as the City of Santa Clarita team) in approving plans or completing construction inspections. From that point forward, we will provide our services as discussed in the onboarding meeting but look for the majority of the communication to be coming from the City of Santa Clarita team on how we are performing. We often say that we need that direct and sometimes very blunt description of what is not working as well as was expected, in order to correct that process on the SCA side of the contract and quickly meet all expectations of our services. SCA understands that we cannot make the necessary changes in our services unless we receive direction from the Santa Clarita team and our initial services will have a great deal of "how is that going?" questions with each project being completed. On our end, SCA has created a customized database software to be able to track our efforts and keep all services on schedules established. This allows our internal team of supervisors to adjust resources and provide more staffing as the need arises, but before delays are encountered. It also provides an opportunity for our team to provide monthly, weekly or daily updates to the Santa Clarita team on project review status, or clarifications on comments and inspection results when needed. Again, these are our internal checks and balances, but we encourage the city team to be involved with these updates and provide corrections when needed. SCA's goal is to maximize communication and be able to customize our approach to be the best fit for Santa Clarita's needs. When our services are provided at the City of Santa Clarita (plan review, inspections or permit technicians) we look to make sure that each of our employees are interviewed prior to becoming part of the onsite team, as finding the best "fit" within the existing staffing at the city is critical for our success. We have provided similar services in enough jurisdictions to know that being supportive to existing efforts and processes is the need. Having an SCA team player that is not working consistently to follow Santa Clarita's direction is never capable of being successful in these services, no matter how qualified our employees may be in terms of licenses, certifications or experience. Again, our overall goal is to be a benefit to the City of Santa Clarita in meeting all goals and objectives related to development services. SCA values every client and is committed to customizing our services to meet the needs specific to the City of Santa Clarita unique. We are constantly adapting and seeking ways to provide excellent service to customers in the face of increased local expectations. This is why partnering with SCA is the ideal solution to these issues faced by the city. We will provide expert staff to meet the City of Santa Clarita's desired service levels, on an as -needed basis, allowing flexibility to manage your Planning and Building Department in the most beneficial manner. We will look to see that projects are successfully completed and a reflection of the city's codes, ordinances procedures, policies, and directives. A key in those efforts is the ability of having all construction reviewed in a cooperative partnership between Building and Planning, Public Works, Environmental, Police, Fire, and other departments and divisions within the city — in addition to serving the community needs with responsiveness and professionalism. We will listen to the city's management and take our lead in their direction, hopefully building a relationship as a valued team member to the entire community. At the end of each day, it is important for us to stress that the City of Santa Clarita is not just a client, as we will strive to earn your trust by finding the best way to achieve organizational goals and showing the city what sets us apart from other firms that provide similar services.

Final section of a musical piece — a final section that adds dramatic energy to the ASSOCIATES work as a whole, usually through intensified rhythmic activity; 2. Extra text — an additional section at the 5 end of a text, for example, a literary work or speech that gives additional information. Work Program (Section 4) As stated earlier, SCA maintains an internal database for all jurisdictional projects that we have created specifically to track each assignment/status. All projects are assigned a unique SCA job number for tracking purposes, which the city staff or applicants can access at any time during our review cycles. It also ensures that we can manage our review team's workloads and re -assign when needed to ensure that project deliverables remain on (or ahead) of scheduled turnarounds. Further, this allows our administrative staff to direct all review questions or inquiries to the specific review team member that created the comment initially. Again, this ensures that our team can assist in providing further code clarification to each applicant to resolve issues directly, often through Zoom/Teams or other virtual meeting software. The following reflects our proposed process for providing the requested scope of work. We follow these processes with each project, but our philosophy is to still meet the city's needs with regard to our services. As such, we maintain the ability to adjust our process to accommodate the City of Santa Clarita. Plan Review Services SCA can perform plan reviews that cover one or more of the following disciplines: ➢ Building: architectural (fire/life safety), structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, accessibility, green building, energy conservation, and geotechnical in conformance with the currently adopted Jurisdiction Building Codes, or International Building Codes (all as modified or amended by the jurisdiction). ➢ Public Works/Engineering: grading, drainage, geotechnical, on-site\right-of-way improvements, construction management and inspection for public infrastructure projects, and FEMA Flood Insurance Program. ➢ Fire: fire/life safety requirements of the IBC/IFC, site reviews for hydrants and apparatus access, fire suppression, fire alarm, NFPA standards as they pertain to construction, equipment, fire protection systems, smoke control reports and hazardous materials to the currently adopted International Fire and Building Codes (all as modified or amended by the jurisdiction). Plan Review Implementation To begin a successful delivery of our services to the City of Santa Clarita, we intend to establish strong communication lines between our permit technician/administrative staff, to ensure that electronic plans are properly received and complete to allow us to begin our reviews. SCA staff have a system in place that verifies that all electronic files are received (correcting any corrupted files). Our team will usually reach out to the city's staff within 24 hours, with any discrepancy in submittal documents, or even transmittals related to each review. Internally, our Plan Check Manager meets with the Plans Coordinators to assess and understand each project received, as well as putting it into a larger database schedule that we maintain internally for all jurisdictional projects. It is at this point that our Manager and Coordinator will begin the process of assigning each project a unique SCA job number for tracking purposes, which the city staff or applicants can access at any time during our review cycles. Then each project will be assigned to a SCA plan review team member, based on experience, expertise, and complexity of the project along with the current availability of each team member. Our plan review staff is well versed and able to review all code requirements. Most smaller projects can be reviewed by a single plan examiner/engineer and for large projects, our plans coordinators will confer with our plan review manager to divide project portions into smaller systems reviews — which ensures that the project stays on schedule with multiple persons assigned to handle larger lifts. The plans coordination team will continue to check -in and update schedules during each cycle of review, and make sure that each plan review member remains on schedule or re -assigning (when needed) some work to ensure turnaround times are met. We prefer (if approved by the City of Santa Clarita) to expedite or clarify plan review items by contacting the designers and communicating directly, using the most advantageous media available, to resolve issues.

Extra text — an additional section at the 6 end of a text, for example, a literary work or speech that gives additional information. Part I - Technical Proposal today's development climate a brief phone call, or a thirty -minute online meeting can save weeks of back -and - forth delays to obtain minimum code compliance and approvals. We understand that there can be limitations in the designer's technology or jurisdictional inter -department review process, which sometimes prohibit these methods from being implemented completely with every project. But with any approach being implemented we can resolve code issues with SCA understanding (and intentionally) by routing all communication/comment letters (first or concurrently) through the city, as directed by your staff. All reviewed and approved documents shall be returned to the city after the plan review process is completed, and input into the tracking software as directed by the City of Santa Clarita's staff. We will look to the City of Santa Clarita's staff and take your lead on how to effectively streamline communication, because at the end of the day our goal is to build a relationship as a cohesive team. When review cycles are completed, our managers will review final products to ensure that comments are formatted properly, and clear regarding code concerns. Then our Project Coordinators will register the completed cycle and will input all reviewed and approved documents into the tracking software as directed by the City of Santa Clarita's staff. Then as directed by the city, our Project Coordinators will send all submittal, and resubmittal reports directly to the city's staff for distribution to the applicant(s). We can also directly/simultaneously provide the architect and/or the engineer with the same electronic list of items needing correction when directed to do so by the city. Through our database and team of plans coordinators, SCA can provide clear and direct information to the city's staff (or the applicants) related to plan review status, as well as provide another layer of plan submittal completeness assessments at each review cycle. When questions arise, our project coordinators will direct all inquiries to the appropriate plan review staff to respond and resolve issues. This ensures that every item related to a plan review list can be responded to and resolved with the staff person that created the comment initially. We are committed to returning calls and emails promptly and with a professional approach associated with these services. Plan Reviews and Approvals Our standard plan review reports result in lists of comments which refer to specific details, drawing or location in the building, and reference applicable code sections for each item cited. Our comment lists should be self- explanatory, but our review team will remain available during working hours (and often off -hours) by phone and/ or video conferencing to share and discuss the code concerns with the city's staff and/or the applicants to provide any additional clarification/discussion needed of the applicable building code section, ordinances, or regulation. We will provide a similar list at each cycle of the review process, but typically strive to resolve reviews in two cycles, with perhaps a quick third review of a remaining comment (or two). When a review remains extensive at a third (or longer) review cycle, SCA staff will reach out to the City of Santa Clarita's staff to discuss the overall items of concern and look for direction on any alternative methods to keep the project review moving in a positive direction. With these difficult reviews, SCA is not opposed to online video conferences to share and discuss the code concerns with the city's staff and the applicant — hopefully to assist in receiving a more complete resubmittal with the next review. Further, we can activate our team early in the process (usually prior to construction documents being submitted to the city), to provide general code reviews with design development plans, to assist with sensitive projects understanding larger code concerns early on in the process and hopefully allowing corrections that will reduce plan review cycles in the future. SCA prefers to review larger projects in this manner, but only under the clear direction of the city, and with the understanding that we are not designing the project but merely representing the City of Santa Clarita's code concerns. SHUMS CODA Shums—(Noun): 1. Sun; 2. Light; 3. Brilliance; 4. Knowledge Coda — (Noun): 1. Final section of a musical piece — a final section that adds dramatic energy to the ASSOCIATES work as a whole, usually through intensified rhythmic activity; 2. Extra text — an additional section at the 7 end of a text, for example, a literary work or speech that gives additional information. Once the final plan review is completed and ready for approval, SCA will stamp (physically or electronically) the plans and the supporting documents and return them to the city, along with our letter of completion. It should be noted that our approval stamp can be modified to suit the desired information needed by the City of Santa Clarita. SCA is proficient in many versions of electronic plan review applications, and other web -based tools. SCA staff expertise and proficiency in the latest electronic plan review is not an accident, but rather a source of pride. SCA can also review paper plans when submitted and could provide in-house staff review assistance. If the reviews can be completed over the counter, we will make every effort to complete them at that point. If we cannot do a review at the City of Santa Clarita's offices, our plans examiner will conduct the plan review in the SCA office and provide a report as outlined above. If paper plans are submitted, we will provide couriers to pick up and deliver the documents. We have seen our paper plan reviews nearly disappear in favor of electronic plan reviews. Electronic plan reviews have been a strength for our team, having reviewed thousands of electronic projects. SCA can review all plans electronically and provide review letters in multiple formats. This has been a service provided to our clients prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. SCA maintains equipment for our plan review staff (i.e., dual, and larger monitors, added graphic cards and memory) to allow for plans to be properly reviewed in an efficient manner. SCA is knowledgeable of different databases and networks and is also proficient in many versions of electronic plan review applications, and other web -based tools. We typically utilize the Bluebeam product for our reviews but can provide our review comments on any of the other comparable platforms and are able to embed the comments into the electronic plan sheets. We can also redline revisions, and mark-up plans for minor items, to ensure approval of the plans instead of an additional review cycle being performed. SCA would look to the city to provide guidance on the preferred method of electronic comments to be received. SCA staff are knowledgeable and have experience working with a variety of different software for Electronic Plan Review, Permit Tracking, and Building Inspections. SCA currently uses the following software: //jj Pro'ec. �' rw f—'4����G� N or� L� 360S W tergv cityinspect Cit1leCa Inspection Services SCA provides building, fire, and public works inspection services as directed by the jurisdiction. These services include: ➢ Perform new construction and occupancy inspections for compliance to the applicable Building, Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Energy, Green and Fire codes as amended by the jurisdiction. ➢ Review of all approved plans, specifications, and documents. ➢ Review and respond to all inspection requests and reports. ➢ Attend mandatory meetings, including safety training and project management. Our inspectors are qualified, certified, and licensed to conduct many different types of inspections. Our staff will work with your staff to ensure that all types of buildings will be inspected as requested by the city. The scope of inspection services to be provided will be defined uniquely for each project or as determined mutually by SCA and the City of Santa Clarita. Inspectors provided to the city will report directly to the Chief Building Official or another person designated by the city for all project -related work. Any inspector sent to the city will need to be interviewed and/or accepted by the Community Development Department staff prior to their commencement of SHUMS CODA Shums—(Noun): 1. Sun; 2. Light; 3.

Extra text — an additional section at the 8 end of a text, for example, a literary work or speech that gives additional information. inspections on behalf of the jurisdiction, as we want our staff to be appropriately qualified for and clear of the City of Santa Clarita's expectations. To begin a successful delivery of our services to the City of Santa Clarita, we must again have strong communication between our management/inspection staff, to ensure that we are clear on the city's expectations. We will conduct the required inspections for the project and inspect the buildings in accordance with the codes adopted and amended by the City of Santa Clarita. We have also worked with several different Departments to concurrently administer the codes adopted by their jurisdiction. We believe it is important to work alongside all departments on projects to present a cooperative level of code administration. An inspection report will be provided for each inspection outlining what inspection was conducted, the result and any conditions or corrections needed. SCA's inspection reports will reference code sections that are applicable for each comment. We will provide a similar list for each inspection cycle. It is standard practice for our inspectors to input results into the jurisdiction's inspection/ permitting software at the end of each inspection day and/ or leave a distribution copy at the jobsite for the contractor/applicant. SCA can certainly provide either or some hybrid version as needed for the City of Santa Clarita. We will also provide stop work orders, when necessary, but our philosophy is always to communicate paths of resolution of code concerns, instead of stop work orders — as our role is also to keep the project on time and under budget. We believe in being service oriented and not building police. Our correction lists should be self-explanatory, but our inspection team will remain available during working hours (and often off -hours) to provide any additional clarification/discussion needed of the applicable building code section, ordinances, or regulations. Our inspectors provide their cell phone numbers to the contractors and homeowners if a question arises in the field, as we believe it is important that the lines of communication are kept open. We will work with the contractors and homeowners to bring a building into compliance with the applicable code whenever we can. It is our philosophy that inspections are educational opportunities to explain the purpose of the code and why certain things are required by the code. We will spend additional time explaining the purpose of a code requirement whenever necessary as we see ourselves as code educators as much as code administrators. Our goal is to get to yes and comply with the intent of the code. When inspections are slow or are consistently not ready, SCA staff will reach out to the city's staff to discuss the overall items of concern and look for direction on any alternative methods to keep construction on track. Our inspection staff is also able to attend any necessary meetings to assist in having consistent inspection progress with each jobsite. This will require SCA staff to be available to participate in and attend inspection staff meetings and training events sponsored by the city (as needed and directed). We want to do whatever we can to ensure safe buildings while helping to get projects completed on time and under budget. We pride ourselves on being problem solvers and not problem makers. When the final inspection is completed, we will notify the city that a certificate of occupancy can be issued for new buildings or addition/tenant improvements and will file the electronic report with the City of Santa Clarita, to close out the permit. SCA would look to the city to provide guidance on the preferred method of how this will be completed. Permit Technician Services SCA can provide experienced ICC certified Permit Technicians to assist jurisdictions (or large-scale projects) with document coordination related to permit submittal and issuance. Our team is familiar with numerous permit software programs that are utilized by our municipal partners and can also provide guidance to applicants related to basic zoning codes and land use law. SCA's Permit Technician Services can cover one or more of the following disciplines: SHUMS CODA Shums—(Noun): 1. Sun; 2. Light; 3. Brilliance; 4. Knowledge Coda — (Noun): 1. Final section of a musical piece — a final section that adds dramatic energy to the ASSOCIATES work as a whole, usually through intensified rhythmic activity; 2. Extra text — an additional section at the 9 1 end of a text, for example, a literary work or speech that gives additional information. ➢ Assists with building and fire permit applicants and others by phone and in person. ➢ Calculating and processes permit fees. ➢ Reviews, logs, coordinates, and routes various plans and permits. ➢ Processes and reviews building permit applications, documents, and plan submittals to assure accuracy and compliance with the jurisdiction. ➢ Provides information to the public relating to the status of projects and permits. Completion Dates and Turnarounds In general, SCA's plan review turnaround timeframe is ten (10) business days for initial reviews and seven (7) business days for rechecks and revisions; however, it is important to note that SCA will work with the City of Santa Clarita to come to an agreed upon timeframe for all review types. For example, PV systems or battery storage systems in residential construction can often be completed in a day or two (depending on notification from Santa Clarita), and we would expect to complete in-house plan reviews over the counter when possible with redlines. Timeframes for large -size projects can potentially be slightly longer due to the complexity or size of the submittal, as we may need additional time to ensure the code items are reviewed with appropriate detail. Our preference is to have fifteen (15) working days to complete these reviews, but again SCA will work directly with city staff to establish turnarounds for these projects prior to proceeding with the review. Expedited plan reviews will have a separated negotiated turnaround timeframe for each project. When expedited plan reviews are requested, we will perform the plan review as quickly as SCA staff schedules will allow. An expedited review is typically completed in half of the standard turnaround time, but SCA has (at times) been able to review in shorter periods. These types of review schedules are typically determined based on the complexity of the project and the availability of the appropriate SCA staff to complete the review. SCA will provide qualified inspectors as needed to the city, usually within one business day, if requested by noon on the previous business day. We would expect to have building inspectors or permit technicians at the City of Santa Clarita offices on a full-time basis (forty hours a week), but if the demand is less frequent we may need to discuss the availability of qualified SCA staff to be at the jurisdiction on a regular schedule, as our team members are all full-time employees and working for multiple cities during the week can present additional scheduling issues. However, we will work to meet these requests as they arise and provide the services needed for Santa Clarita. As far as major milestones for SCA's services, we would expect to have weekly discussions as we begin our services over the course of the first month or two of the contract. We would then anticipate having quarterly meetings between our team and Santa Clarita's management to fine-tune the services to be better suited for the current needs. It is not uncommon for construction activities to ebb and flow to match the economic conditions or availability of contractors and materials, so quarterly meetings are often helpful in keeping service levels in tune with those changes. With the end of each fiscal year in the contract, we would expect a larger overall discussion on service level needs for the next year, and trends that we will need to adjust to match. Finally, we would expect that if larger development projects are undertaken by SCA services, we would be attending pre -submittal meetings to provide code requirements to facilitate better prepared documents in submittals. Or for inspections to be a part of pre -construction meetings, safety training and weekly updates, to ensure that we can continue to assist in keeping the project on time and avoid costly delays. SHUMS CODA Shums—(Noun): 1. Sun; 2. Light; 3. Brilliance; 4. Knowledge Coda — (Noun): 1. Final section of a musical piece — a final section that adds dramatic energy to the ASSOCIATES work as a whole, usually through intensified rhythmic activity; 2. Extra text — an additional section at the 10 1 end of a text, for example, a literary work or speech that gives additional information. Methodology (Section 5) Code Knowledge SCA works throughout the United States, enforcing various versions of the model building codes, and/or local ordinances. These assignments have us enforcing and reviewing code requirements for projects that are as diverse as the jurisdictions themselves. We spend time researching and understanding the development of new code language, which often assists all of our clients in developing performance -based approaches to achieve code minimums. Therefore, our staff is required to have current I.C.0 certifications, professional licenses, and continuing education hours in order to maintain our understanding of the ever -changing code requirements and State or local amendments. SCA believes that an understanding of how buildings are designed and constructed is an important element to providing effective code comments that are based on the realities of practical construction. Depending on the code section, we have seen there can be a great deal of interpretation applied to how requirements are enforced, so SCA staff continues to find value in learning the history and intent of code language to assist with accurately applying it to our reviews and inspections (with the caveat that final determinations clearly come from the local municipal client staff/management). Constantly improving SCA team knowledge related to code items allows us to expedite project timelines, as we are current and proficient with new or difficult to understand code sections, and their proper applications. Our belief is that code should be understood by our staff to a level where they can explain to our clients how and why it applies to their specific project. We accept that we cannot strive to be the best unless we stay current with the regulations we are required to enforce. SCA takes this commitment to code content further as we continue to expand our involvement in various code training and education offerings. SCA's Education Director Steve Thomas oversees a team of code educators providing technical classes throughout the United States. In addition, SCA educators serve as chairpersons, or board members on national code education committees such as: Southern Nevada ICC EduCode; Colorado Chapter ICC; Arizona Building Officials, Utah Chapter of Building Officials, and Sacramento Valley Association of Building Official ICC. We utilize this code expertise to internally train our own staff and are in the process of establishing a program to educate and train the next generation of plans examiners, building and fire inspectors. Thus, our staff will come from a higher degree of code knowledge than provided by other similar firms in this industry. Code expertise is the strength of our services and SCA is always willing to share this knowledge with any jurisdictional, design/construction professional, or homeowner. In the end, we are striving to build relationships with our clients so they can take advantage of our expertise to successfully manage every issue or project. Our success is based on putting into action services that enhance the value of and highlight the unique personality of each individual client or project. Being able to discuss and communicate code minimums, as well as standard means to be code compliant, is the expected customer service provided by SCA staff. Quality Control One of the keys to SCA's success as a company is the commitment to quality control of our services. SCA starts with the employment of qualified and knowledgeable personnel, the use of plan check templates to match local interpretations and policy/procedures. Further, SCA is a proponent of continuing education, and internal peer reviews from our senior staff or system code experts. These controls raise the quality level of our plan checks by being focused on significant code issues but also providing a consistent product to our clients. With our services remaining constantly of the highest quality, it provides our clients and their communities with a high level of confidence that their plans will be reviewed with equal consideration and thoroughness required for construction safety. SHUMS CODA Shums—(Noun): 1. Sun; 2. Light; 3. Brilliance; 4. Knowledge Coda — (Noun): 1. Final section of a musical piece — a final section that adds dramatic energy to the ASSOCIATES work as a whole, usually through intensified rhythmic activity; 2. Extra text — an additional section at the 11 end of a text, for example, a literary work or speech that gives additional information. Technical Support As with any of our clients, SCA will provide technical support for the City of Santa Clarita's service needs. We often have personnel in attendance at pre -submittal and in -progress plan review meetings, or pre -construction and on -site inspection meetings. SCA understands the value of operating quickly and efficiently, as is expected to complete a successful project in this marketplace. City of Santa Clarita's projects are unique in size and complexity but demand a team that is attentive to details to reach critical construction deadlines. Personnel working on such projects at SCA will be available via phone or email to immediately address concerns or provide additional clarification of code concerns to applicants or City of Santa Clarita staff. Commitment to providing additional technical support when needed often keeps projects on deadlines and under budget. Project Management (Section 6) The City of Santa Clarita will find that SCA's management team and service leads are very hands-on with ensuring our services consistently meet expectations. We provide many means to contact our entire team, including our CEO, David Basinger or COO, Christine Godinez, directly to resolve more significant issue that may develop during the course of our contract. However, the same can be said or our senior team of plan reviewers, inspectors, or plans coordinators, as we continue to stress the importance of direct communication with each client or applicant to our staff. Our management style is to provide qualified team members to provide services to our clients, develop strong working relationships and have each SCA employee work to their strengths in providing the best possible technical code results. SCA will therefore provide several means to communicate with each of our employees but have the City of Santa Clarita understand that our management is very flat in nature, so that it is easier to reach our senior management team quickly to resolve issues to the benefit of each project. We provide our organizational chart (next page) to show the strength of our team. Our preference is to utilize local staff to provide the code services but have expanded our electronic capacity to be able to bring in additional team members from any of our offices. This allows our entire plan review staff (even when remote) to be available to assist with larger volumes or more complicated review projects. SCA also utilizes Facetime/Zoom/Teams meetings between our inspectors allowing us to collaborate on the best code solutions for complex construction issues. We can provide multiple experts in each building systems or field services with our internal methods of communication between SCA offices but continue to be cognizant of California specific requirements. This means that we will provide an even greater degree of expertise available for unusual systems related to engineering principles, grading, stormwater drainage, zoning, planning principals, structural, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, fire, energy, sustainability, as well as accessibility/ CASp reviews. With entirely electronic systems, we now can distribute plan reviews (in whole or in portions) to any of our staff and provide a final list of code comments that are cohesive and complete, from any combination of our regional office locations. This allows SCA to provide more staff to solve workflow issues within jurisdictions. We provide the following organizational chart to show the depth of our team but would reference the specific team members listed in previous pages as our key staff dedicated to this undertaking.

Jason will also work with Stephanie Stuckemeyer to ensure that permit technicians we engage with this contract will be properly qualified and certified for the need of the city. Christine Godinez, COO — serves as the SCA point of contact for items related to invoicing, certificates of insurance, and managing our plan review tracking software. She has been instrumental in developing a customized database, process, and procedures at SCA that allow through our website and team of plans coordinators, the ability of SCA to provide clear and direct information to city staff related to plan review status, as well as provide another layer of plan submittal completeness assessments at each review cycle. Stephanie Stuckemeyer, Operations Manager — oversees our internal plans coordinators team to ensure that each plan received by SCA is logged into our database to allow for tracking of each review cycle and maintains turnarounds and delivery of completed reviews. Stephanie's team will assess each project review at the time of the submittal and ensure that appropriate SCA plan review staff are assigned to complete the plan review. Stephanie also supervises our on -boarding process with new clients to ensure that we have all processes and procedures documented and understood prior to beginning reviews for the city. The following personnel will service this contract as outlined in the scope of work included in the RFP. Please note that all of our plan review staff can provide complete plan reviews individually and often will review entire projects that are smaller in scale. (Resumes can be found in the Appendix): Kurt McMullin, P.E., Ph.D., Senior Plan Check Engineer, Educator — is an experienced design engineer and college professor, that oversees our staff of plan review engineers. He has reviewed every type of structural system and building type, as it relates to the four building materials (wood, steel, concrete, and masonry).

Myron has an extensive career in complex plan review projects and coordinating team comments to provide a focus on critical code issues. Myron has reviewed prison expansions, hospital construction, large office campus construction and several large-scale multi -family housing projects. Barbara Rice, CBO, CFM, EFO — Fire Service Manager, Code Educator — will be the point of contact for technical fire code issues. She is experienced as a building and fire code official, inspector, investigator, and plans examiner. Barbara brings the ability to apply the fire code requirements in a practical manner to achieve code minimums, while still being able to adapt to sensitive community concerns, as she has served at the head of both building and fire departments (sometimes simultaneously). Hope Medina, CBO, CSP, Plans Examiner, Code Educator — will provide complete plan reviews and will serve as our plan review co -lead on energy and sustainability systems, as Hope teaches extensive classes in energy and sustainability codes. Gil Rossmiller, CBO, Plans Examiner, Code Educator — will also serve as our co -lead expertise in energy and Cal Green/sustainability codes, as he also provides extensive code classes on these subjects, as well as serving on the ICC Energy Code Committee. Steve Thomas, CBO, Plans Examiner, Education Director— began his career as a municipal inspector and plans examiner, where he was quickly promoted to CBO at the City of Glendale, CO. Steve left the jurisdiction to form his own code consulting firm and begin a code education business that provides classes across the nation. His firm was acquired by SCA in 2020, and he continues to provide education and plan review services in a similar role. Since inspection personnel must work well with city staff to be effective, SCA will provide resumes before any inspector is sent to the city as they will need to be interviewed and/or accepted by the city staff prior to their commencement of inspections on behalf of the jurisdiction, as we want our staff to be appropriately qualified for and clear of the city's expectations.

Extra text — an additional section at the 15 end of a text, for example, a literary work or speech that gives additional information. Our permit technicians will be our current SCA designated plans coordinators that provide remote services to multiple clients. All have extensive experience with multiple electronic permit tracking software, and we will assign one specific to be the lead of project workflows. If a permit technician is needed at city offices, then SCA will provide resumes to be interviewed and/or accepted by the city staff. Finally, SCA has presented our vision of the primary staff needed to complete these services. We understand that our principal and service line managers will be available on a continuous basis to service contractual needs as they arise during the course of the contract. This will mean that for consistency of our services, substitution of these project managers and/or lead personnel will not be permitted without prior written approval from the City of Santa Clarita management team. We also understand the nature of work can require full-time involvement of our staff and leads, so we will commit to providing full-time service through a combination of a single team member or in combination of many, as best needed to meet the expectations of the jurisdiction. Schedule (Section 8) Plan Review In general, SCA's plan review turnaround timeframe is ten (10) business days for initial reviews and seven (7) business days for rechecks and revisions. As stated in an earlier section, there are exceptions to these rules as smaller plan reviews (PV/residential battery storage systems) can be reviewed in two (2) days or less. For larger and more complex/phased permit reviews, the turnarounds can require up to fifteen (15) business days to complete effectively, but SCA will work with the City of Santa Clarita management to adjust any or all of these turnarounds to meet the community needs. As these reviews (except those reviewed at the City of Santa Clarita offices) will be entirely electronic, we can commit to having multiple plan review engineer/architects available for forty (40) hours or more each week, but will not invoice for overtime on plan reviews. Our jurisdictional plan review team will be available for full-time work at the City of Santa Clarita, or to the extent needed by current work levels. Expedited plan reviews, or third -party plan reviews will have a separated negotiated turnaround timeframe for each project. When expedited plan reviews are requested, we will perform the plan review as quickly as SCA staff schedules will allow. An expedited review is typically completed in half of the standard turnaround time, but SCA has (at times) been able to review in shorter periods. These types of review schedules are typically determined based on the complexity of the project and the availability of SCA staff to complete the review. Inspection and Permit Technician Services SCA will provide qualified inspectors as needed to the city, within one business day, if requested by noon on the previous business day. We will be able to provide multiple building inspectors if needed by the City of Santa Clarita, if the inspections were full-time each week. If the inspection work to be conducted was only part-time during the week, SCA would attempt to provide as much inspection assistance as possible, but splitting inspectors time between jurisdictions is often difficult to ensure, unless we utilize part-time/retired personnel that have that flexibility in their weekly schedule. As inspectors have been more difficult to find in recent years, part- time inspections does pose potential challenges that we would need to work through with the city. SCA permit technicians can be full-time at the City of Santa Clarita offices, or on a hybrid schedule if allowed by the jurisdiction. We find that the hybrid schedule is sometimes more beneficial for our clients, as we can utilize our most experienced permit technicians to assist with workloads from further away locations but still be extremely helpful with workflows due to their capabilities. We look to discuss City of Santa Clarita's preferences on this approach and will work to meet your desired service needs. SHUMS CODA Shums—(Noun): 1. Sun; 2. Light; 3. Brilliance; 4.

Extra text — an additional section at the 16 end of a text, for example, a literary work or speech that gives additional information. Program Monitoring (Section 9) SCA provides constant internal monitoring of our process that can potentially begin prior to submittal (if allowed by the City of Santa Clarita) and continue through to the final Certificate of Occupancy on completed permitted construction. Our internal monitoring involves our database that tracks submittals, staff involvement and maintains meeting turnaround schedules. There is often senior staff peer reviewing reviews prior to them being completed and constant communication between our team and the City of Santa Clarita management. If we are involved with the intake process through our permit technicians, we would input review and results directly into the city permitting software, and often we would do so on behalf of the city team (if allowed). Our review team would then prefer to reach out and communicate with the homeowner/design team directly to provide a code resolution meeting to ensure that the resubmittal will have the best information to be approved with the second submittal — eliminating unnecessary turnaround cycles. When plans are approved, we would stamp in a manner that is acceptable to the City of Santa Clarita and engage our inspectors as directed. Again, this may require pre -construction meetings to establish minimum expectations of City standards and work hours, as well as coordination with other departments. We would then proceed with inspections until all items were completed and final certificate of occupancy/final was achieved. Throughout this entire process we would anticipate constant communication to relay our code concerns, provide feedback on means to resolve issues, and continually update both the City of Santa Clarita and any person involved with the overall project. Our project leads and CEO are always aware of the project status and can intervene or provide additional direction to our staff when needed.

City Resources (Section 10) SCA's team is highly qualified and provides all resources that are typically needed to complete their work assignments for the City of Santa Clarita. For example, our plans examiners are provided with multiple large - sized monitors to be able to easily review electronic submissions. We also provide high-speed internet connectivity, phones, Zoom or other virtual meeting subscriptions, and access to premium ICC electronic codes for their reviews. Similarly, our inspectors are provided with safety gear and tools necessary to complete all inspections (i.e., smart levels, tape measures, voltage meters, etc.). We can supply any electronic pads or phones needed and utilized by the City of Santa Clarita, as many jurisdictions now take advantage of electronic equipment to photograph and document inspections into the City systems or email to applicant/owners — we would look to your lead in regards to your preferences on these matters. For the most part, our staff is self- sufficient in our tools needed to complete the assignments. The items that sometimes vary with our services are equipment that the jurisdiction requires, or items that are preferred to be utilized by our team. These would usually be items such as city vehicles (if our team is allowed to use them to complete daily inspections), business cards or name tags to associate our team as consultants to the jurisdiction, or special access/equipment to input results into the City of Santa Clarita's permitting software. Again, these are not unusual items to be discussed and negotiated prior to SCA's team beginning to provide needed services. Subcontractors/ Subconsultants (Section 11) SCA does not anticipate utilizing any subcontractors and most of our staff members are able to review and inspect across all trades and systems (i.e., building, accessibility, structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, energy, and green codes). Our team has specialist within each code or building systems, and intends to utilize these internal expertise when the project review or inspection dictates the need for a more detailed review or inspection. Contractor Capability and References (Section 12) To highlight project experience with other public municipalities, we have provided similar services to, SCA provides the following public sector contract examples from some of our current municipal clients to demonstrate our capabilities to fulfill the Scope of Work within the RFP.

We performed over 300 plan reviews in a four -month period and were retained under a response to an RFQ to expand services. Our plan reviews are unusual from a development services perspective, as we are tasked with providing plan reviews that cover multiple disciplines outside of the standard building code reviews. Our services include fire systems, land development and stormwater systems, as well as occasional CASp reviews. We are also under contract to provide as needed inspection and permit technician services. To date we have reviewed over 2,000 projects (residential, multi -family residential, commercial, retail, restaurants, medical and industrial uses), as Ventura continues to rebuild from the devastating Thomas Fire as well as update city infrastructure.

During these numerous years of continual service, we have provided in-house and remote/electronic plan reviews, on -site inspections, and provided various permit technicians, administrative staff, planners, housing inspectors and even a brief period where we assisted with an interim CDD. On two separate occasions, Mountain View has asked Mr. Basinger to serve as Acting Building Official (for roughly two, one-year stints), and he recently completed another term as the Acting Deputy Building Official. Although the city is roughly 83,000 in population, there is a great diversity in the types of construction projects that continue to be built in the jurisdiction. SCA staff has been responsible for review, inspections and permitting of the large-scale commercial and multi -family developments, as well as smaller projects in the historic downtown Castro Street district (the heart of the city). We have assisted with Code adoptions, recently adopted Reach Codes (for full electrification of new construction), difficult code enforcement cases (taken to court for final judgement), and long-term pre -submittal meetings or planning reviews to create conditions of approval. Our greatest achievement is that numerous members we have placed within the City of Mountain View have been offered and accepted long-term positions with the jurisdiction — showing that we have a strong working relationship with the overall city, as well as understanding the type of good "fit" in our staff that can ultimately be hired directly by Mountain View.

SCA Principal served in both of these positions first under an emergency contract that was extended into a permanent contract of complete building services we provide today. In addition to plan reviews, we have been in several in-house preliminary project submittal meetings, as well as in progress construction resolution meetings. While serving as the Building Official, Mr. Basinger performed weekly in-house plan review meetings with Tesla (and other significant corporate clients) to review and permit tenant improvement plans over the counter.

At the end of 2023, we were requested to provide an Acting Building Official to cover for a recently retired CBO that was leaving the municipality. SCA provided Terry Knox in this role, based on his extensive experience as a building inspector and CBO in the area. Terry served in this capacity providing guidance with several code enforcement cases and reducing the backlog of plan review, while additional plan check engineer moved to another nearby jurisdiction. Although not specifically involved with the final selection process for the full-time CBO a Vallejo, Terry did assist with creating interview questions and background information on potential interviews.

Part I — Teji!a!!!M- To highlight the type of projects we have reviewed, inspected, and provided permitting staff for, we provide the following examples of work completed for our municipal clients under contract services. These are Capital Improvement Projects or lager commercial structures, but we are equally adept at reviewing residential and commercial tenant improvements. Municipal projects City Hall Citr SCA completed the plan review for the new $22 mil City Hall located on Fountain Square Drive. The 35,000 sq. ft., single -story City Hall will provide office space for 65 employees who previously were housed in four separate buildings. The new hall will also feature about 5,000 square feet of solar panels on the roof. North Branch Library Santa Clara, r-" SCA completed the plan review for the newest Santa Clara Library located on Moreland Way. The 17,500 sq. ft. state-of-the-art library consists of a grand entry plaza, a reading courtyard, 2,000 sq. ft. community room, separate children's and teen's book collections and gathering areas. Fire Station #5 Mountain View, C/" This 10,000 sq. ft. building is designed to meet Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification requirements and will be the first LEED Silver -Certified Capital Improvement project to be constructed by the city. The state-of-the-art building will house several newly purchased fire engines and provide space for dorms, a living area, and office space. Rengstorff Park Aquatics Center SCA completed the plan review for the new Rengstorff Park Aquatic Center being built to replace the original Aquatics Center that opened back in 1959. The new Aquatics Center is an entire rebuild of that facility, with a new building, new wading and swimming pools, locker and shower facilities, and multi -purpose space that can be used for a variety of different purposes. Unique in this review was the requirement to meet the recently passed City of Mountain View Reach Codes that effectively eliminate fuel burning appliances for electrification of power sources. This resulting in a large PV array system and electric heat pumps to heat the pool year-round. Veterans Memorial Hall SCA completed the initial review to restore and preserve a portion of the Veterans Memorial Hall in Downtown Danville, a $10 million project. The community hall and parking area located to the rear will be demolished to allow construction of a larger two-story space that will include an expanded community hall, dedicated senior center and a public plaza. The total size of the building will double, from 6,300 to 12,792 sq. ft. SHUMS CODA ASSOCIATES Shums — (Noun): 1. Sun; 2. Light; 3. Brilliance; 4. Knowledge Coda — (Noun): 1.

Large Scale Retail Mixed -Use Projects Santa Clara Square I, II, and III Manta C�_. _, SCA completed the first of three phases in 2013. This project was the beginning of an 80-acre master plan, which will also have up to 1.7 million sq. ft. of office and a 125,000 sq. ft. Whole Foods -anchored retail center. Starting in 2015, SCA began the review of the second and third phases, for 1,800 apartment units and 40,000 square feet of retail on roughly 33 acres at 2600 Augustine Drive. Gateway Village anta Clara, C, SCA completed the plan review of this major mixed -use residential and retail development. The 476 apartment residences, set back from the retail area are wrapped around a concealed multi -story parking garage topped by a generous amenity podium. The amenity podium features a large pool/spa area, cyber lounge, club house, Fitness Center, and bocce ball court. This project are a mix of type I -A, III -A and V-A. A,:o f� o This 470-unit, 10-story, high-rise apartment building, located at 525 Middlefield Road is of type I -A construction. This project consisted of one level of underground parking and two levels of above -grade parking, most of which is wrapped by storefront office space and stoop -accessed residential units and three residential towers which rise an additional 7 stories over the 3-story base. SCA performed two rounds of plan reviews as the design underwent a complete re -design mid -review. The estimated construction valuation of the project is $ 187 million. San Antonio Center I & Mountain View, CA SCA completed the building plan review and inspections of this major redevelopment of an existing retail center. The first phase of this review that has be completed is four and five story apartments on top of podium and basement parking garages with wrap around retail and residential construction. These projects are a mix of type V-A, III-B and I -A construction and represent the initial revitalization of over 15 acres at the existing retail center. The second phase was a continued redevelopment of six additional city blocks that included construction of a new hotel, mid -rise office buildings, retail, and theatre buildings, and associated below and above grade parking structures. The project was recently completed with the addition of final art and parks to the site (which were also reviewed by SCA). The Dean Mountain m wz.,w, SCA completed the plan review of this 5.75-acre development consisting of several five story, Type III -A residential buildings over a full site, Type I -A " podium structure. The development created over 600 market rate housing units In a cluster of buildings surrounding a public `paseo', with some f� commercial office, retail, and private park spaces. The project included some _°rw AM M R's related to egress approaches, as well as several in-house code comment resolution meetings to ensure that the number of plan reviews were reduced and the project remained on schedule.

The ground floor garage is wrapped by two retail spaces, eight loft apartments, and the leasing office. Upper floors feature 188 apartments wrapping a central courtyard. Large Scale Professional Campus Projects SCA has provided Mr. Basinger as Acting Building Official and Acting Plan' Check Manager, while both positions were vacant. One of the main assigned._ :.. duties was to manage all plan reviews being undertaken by Tesla within the city, as well as a weekly meeting were one-stop/over-the-counter reviews could be completed or discuss upcoming projects and coordinate city department concerns. Although the Building Official position was filled, Mr. Basinger continued to manage numerous Tesla projects and special events. Over the course of a year, projects have included the North Paint T.I., North Paint Expansion, 901 Page (Seats Manufacturing, High -pile product storage racks and offices — also site of special Model X temporary event permit), Kato/Westcore (new building/T.I.), Spinnaker (New parts building), and weekly plan review/meetings (approximately 400 permits completed — 95% approved directly at the meetings). Google / NASA Bayview Project Mouilitaiii View, CA _ T A five-year project to assist NASA with over 4,000,000-sq. ft. of site/infrastructure improvements, office, restaurants, assembly spaces, events center, parking, and residential guest hotel project for a new ~` Google complex located at NASA -Ames Research Facility. As a federal µ a agency, NASA has a Building Department that does not process permits -' as done at a typical jurisdiction, but rather operates as construction a management for improvements at the base. The Google site is a land- lease/joint-venture with Ames Research that involved a complex design on previously incorporated City of Mountain View property where SCA served in the governmental role of plan review and inspection services. The design was extremely innovative in its approach and utilized advanced engineering systems (non -dynamic linear design), as well as being in a flood plain, having underground vapor mitigation system, deep geothermal heat system, large-scale integrated photo -voltaic roof system, recycled and black water systems, water tank installation, and several alternative materials and method requests. SCA was initially brought in to review the primary building of the campus that comprise three separate structures over a common basement level, while other consulting firms were utilized to review site/civil improvements and future housing/garage structure. However, SCA was so much more successful and responsive to both the owner/design schedule and NASA's code concerns, we were quickly promoted to complete the entire project reviews, as well as continual inspections. In fact, SCA's involvement was so well received in this capacity, that we are now providing reviews for the historic hanger 1 renovation and re -use, as well a base infrastructure (such as roadways and bridges). These reviews are exclusively performed electronically, with document control through our administrative staff until approval and release for printing by the design team, and subsequently submitted to the base. Initially NASA had never undertaken such a large and dynamic process, and they didn't understand how to streamline and maintain design/construction schedules. However, SCA worked with their management team, as well as Google/Whiting Turner and the designers, to guide the process into a jurisdictional model that is modified to accommodate the aggressive construction schedule. We provided preliminary code review of design development plans for the project, complete plan review and oversight of structural peer reviews, as well as continuing inspection team for on -going phased permitting and construction.

Box Redwood City, Cw SCA performed the plan review of this project, both shell and tenant- improvements, the largest office project planned for Redwood City's downtown area. The 300,000 sq. ft. development boasts a planned LEED Gold rating, views of the bay and peninsula hillside, parking for over 900, , and 5,000 sq. ft. of retail or restaurant space. r 411 Google Headquarters Mountain View, CA As Google continues to expand its workforce, so has there been the need for additional office space. To date, we have completed plan reviews on over forty existing mid -rise buildings (one to five stories), with major renovations i" to accommodate the new high-tech office uses associated with the Google �, �,t service lines. Most of the structures have included major renovations to—•rM!!� exiting systems, as well as installations of A-2 and A-3 assembly occupancies, and recent lab space renovations. SCA also reviewed one of _°w the largest free-standing photovoltaic carport structures (over numerous " sites). As Google has purchased many of the building sites in the North Bayshore area of Mountain View, many of these full tenant improvements have occurred in buildings that were reviewed (when new construction) by SCA staff. As Google continues to expand the boundaries of their present campus, we continue to provide additional plan review services. Micro--" Mou- Microsoft campus demolished four of five original two-story office buildings and cafeteria/events center and constructed a combined two-story building with extensive roof decks and landscape features. The goal of the project was to create a more integrated and green structure that would be self- supporting. This involved replacing surface parking with a parking structure, exposed CLT structural systems, recycled and black water on -site treatment facility, as well as emphasis to transition from the structure to the natural watershed/creek on the south side of the property. The final structure was type III-B construction under the mall provisions, and included Group B, A-3, A-2, S-1, and S-2 occupancies. Google — Charleston East u W � �uLQ u V �%;;VV, N. Google's first out of the ground/new building in Mountain View was they Charleston East building, located adjacent to their main campus/headquarters. This type II-B construction was a full -basement (below the flood plain), with two -stories above grade and a tubular steel suspension structure that is 165-ft. at the middle of the roof. The unique design utilized several AMMR's, most notably the ASCE 41 and LA Basin Tall Building Codes to analyze the seismic stability of the roof and column °l structure. The final building is nearly 1 million square feet of Group B, A-2, A-3, S-1, and S-2, with a public paseo through the center of the building. The roof structure is entirely a PV system array, on a bent -plate roofing material. ;* SHUMS CODA ASSOCIATES Shums — (Noun): 1. Sun; 2. Light; 3. Brilliance; 4. Knowledge Coda — (Noun): 1.

Alternative Proposal (Section 13) SCA has the capacity to provide additional services to the City of Santa Clarita (not mentioned in the RFP) that could assist with providing more assistance to the staff and community. We have the capabilities to provide fire plan reviews and inspection services to the jurisdiction, which often streamlines the development review and inspection timelines through having building and fire working in conjunction with one another. We can provide similar supporting services for land development, as we often are tasked with reviewing engineering and landscape standards with more involved construction projects. We would look to the City of Santa Clarita to determine if these would be useful under this contract and can negotiate these separately as needed. Further, SCA staff provide technical code training services across the nation and can provide focused training for the city staff and/or public when deemed necessary. We have found that keeping jurisdictional staff well educated on the code nuances makes your team more productive in applying it to their reviews and inspections, while also reducing expenses on training budgets (as our team can teach without your team traveling to a venue). Likewise, our education can extend to the local community and/or management to assist in improving understanding and the importance in meeting minimum code. In many instances, we have also assisted in code adoptions and discussions on how other jurisdictions have created local amendments. Conflict of Interest (Section 14) SCA does not have any actual, apparent, direct, or indirect, or potential conflicts of interest that may exist with respect to the firm, management, or employees of the firm relative to the services to be provided under the Agreement. SCA was established and continues to work only for local jurisdictions in the role of code plan review or inspection services. Although many of our staff have background in design and construction, we do not provide those services to eliminate any conflict of interest. Additional Data (Section 15) SCA is also adept at reviewing a great deal of smaller projects. For example, in a six month period (while completing larger plan review projects), we performed nearly 1,000 mostly residential plan reviews for Ventura, CA; over 300 small reviews for Centennial, CO; and over 1,000 plan review and inspections for Hurricane, UT. Our staff is large enough to accommodate whatever plan review or inspection needs that might evolve during this contract. The following pie chart shows our success rate in getting reviews completed in three or less review cycles, as our goal is always to move projects forward with additional communication to resolve issues.
