File Number: 24-042 multi-department staff team evaluated the proposals with input from BART staff and private property owner stakeholders and selected the multi-disciplinary team led by Good City Company, which possess the necessary quality, fitness, capacity, experience and expertise to provide the services sought by the City. The selected team has ample experience working on complicated TOD projects throughout the Bay Area and several team members have worked directly with the City of San Leandro. The team includes a comprehensive range of technical staff and subconsultants, including Good City Company, ARUP, BKF, and EPS. Scope of Work The scope of work includes preparation of a Development Plan for the Bay Fair TOD, which would: ·Establish an updated multi-modal circulation network of complete streets, developable blocks, and green infrastructure and utility plans; ·Analyze parking needs at the district scale, including BART parking replacement, and provide strategies to implement Travel Demand Management & Parking programs; ·Prepare a detailed development design plan and parcelization plan that will define future blocks for development and prepare the BART TOD site for a competitive proposal process; and ·Develop conceptual designs and cost estimates for key district-scale infrastructure needed to remove major physical barriers in the plan area and catalyze the full development potential of the Bay Fair TOD, including a new complete street crossing over the Estudillo Canal and ADA access across the BART station. The scope of work also includes preparation of Specific Plan Amendments to update the Bay Fair TOD Specific Plan, General Plan, and Zoning Code to incorporate the detailed studies, strategies, and development plans to ensure consistency across all policy documents and provide for development streamlining. The Specific Plan Amendment scope includes environmental review that will build from the Bay Fair TOD Specific Plan EIR and 2023-2031 Housing Element EIR to evaluate additional capacity that would result from the proposed amendments, allowing for streamlined development project review. Applicable General Plan Policies The above grant-funded activities would advance General Plan Policy LU-8.10, which calls for transforming the area around the Bay Fair BART station into a dynamic new transit-oriented development area. They would also implement numerous policies and programs from the City’s certified 2023-2031 Housing Element, including Action 8.1, which calls for continuing to implement the Bay Fair TOD Specific Plan and commits the City to working closely with BART to find funds and resources to facilitate pre-development work.
