Consulting Services Agreement between City of San Leandro and Last revised 04/16/2026 NCE for Pavement Cut Impact Fee Study Exhibit A – Page 1 of 5 EXHIBIT A SCOPE OF SERVICES The City of San Leandro is launching a project to complete a Pavement Cut Impact Fee Study (Fee Study) to assess the structural and functional damage caused for the varying functional classes and pavement ages with the varying Pavement Condition Index (PCI). The Fee Study will result in recommended pavement cut fees for the City that complies with all current applicable federal, state, local laws and regulations. Task I – Preliminary Pavement Fee Study Analysis Task IA – Literature Review This task will include summary of recent pavement cut fee studies performed by various cities in the Bay Area as well as throughout California and nationally. As a part of this task, NCE will conduct a detailed review of the studies that are most pertinent to the City including any follow-up information (i.e., economic impacts, associated costs, fees and ordinance development, agency adoptions, and implementation). At a minimum, the review will include methodology of various studies for fee development, comparison of zone(s) of influence established by various studies, importance of restoration standards, comparison of restorations and moratorium standards among California agencies and pavement cut policies. Deliverables Memorandum summarizing literature review Task IB – Impact Fee Study This task covers the items related to impact fee development mentioned in the scope of work provided by the City. As noted earlier, the impact of cuts can be evaluated using two approaches: a Historical Evaluation using PMS database and a Field Evaluation testing actual sites. • Historical evaluation includes analysis of functional damage on the pavement due to cuts using historical inspection data and rehabilitation history from the StreetSaver database. • Field evaluation includes the analysis of both functional and structural damage on pavement caused by cuts based on existing sites with cuts. While the historical evaluation includes analysis of hundreds of data points from the past, the field evaluation includes analysis of approximately 24-30 field sites with and without cuts. Marrying these two evaluation approaches yields a robust fee schedule which accounts for both functional and structural damage based on past and present circumstances. Task IB.1- Data Collection NCE will coordinate with City staff to obtain the necessary information and assumptions to perform a comprehensive impact study. The required information includes: • Access to City’s PMP database • Recent bid tabs • Locations of pavement cuts (details will be discussed during kickoff meeting) • Pavement structural data for the streets under investigation Docusign Envelope ID: F4FCBFC6-F136-48C5-BF44-69A3B4443EB2
