The focus was centered on east/west circulation, but there was an overall desire to construct new roadway links. On April 25, 1995, City Council adopted Magic Mountain/Via Princessa from Rainbow Glen Drive to San Fernando Road as the preferred alternative route. In keeping with the City's commitment to follow through on the Strategic Plan, staff solicited proposals from more than 100 firms on March 4, 1996 for Phase I and Phase II of design. Phase I includes performing alignment studies, preparing an EIR/EIS, project report and project study report. Phase II includes preparation of right-of-way preliminary design plans and contact specification documents, On April 4, 1996, ten firms (teams) submitted written proposals to the City. Staff evaluated all proposals and interviewed the firms listed on Attachment A in accordance with the requirements spelled out in the solicitation (RFP). Staff determined that ASL would best fulfill the City's needs for this project. Therefore, staff recommends awarding the contract for Phase I to ASL Consultant Company. An amount of $200,000 in TDA funds has been budgeted in Account No. 16-95024-227 for this project and a request has been made that $2,629,612 PFA, Gas Tax, STP, TDA, and Proposition A funds be budgeted for fiscal year 1996-97. The limits of Magic Mountain and Via Princessa are within the Via Princessa Bridge Major Thoroughfare District. Therefore, costs associated with the project are eligible for reimbursement by fees collected from future developments. The estimated cost for Phase II is $2,200,000. ; Agenda Item:. l� QCL LJ MAGIC MOUNTAIN PARKWAYA71A PRINCESSA EXTENSION June 11, 1996 - Page 2 RECOMMENDATION The City Council 1) authorize the City Manager to execute the contract for the Phase I design services of the subject project with ASL Consulting Engineers, in an amount not to exceed $498,360, plus $50,000 for contingency costs; 2) authorize $200,000 STP funds expenditure from the 1995/96 project budget and $350,000 STP and Proposition A funds from the proposed 1996/97 fiscal year project budget (subject to the City Council approval of the 1996/97 fiscal year budget).
